[Verse 1: callmestevieray]

Look

You should see how long it took to get here

Product of a million different choices that were sincere

Made it to L.A. to find out that ain't nobody have no sense here

Probably wouldn't stay if not for Dre

Either way, I love the bay, but it was time for me to leave it

Barely off the floor and felt like I had hit the ceiling

I spent most of my best days trying to chase a feeling

To find out it was fleeting, I was dying every weekend

I'm diving off the deep end, I wanna be the greatest

I'm swimming with the sharks now my ego is inflated

I got a couple friends back home that treat me like I'm famous

I hate it, but I shouldn't be complaining

See I been scared of leadership I'm learning to embrace it

My cousin she look up to me, I try and teach her patience

I wanna tell her everything, I gotta practice what I preach though

It's shit, I gotta let her learn as she goes

[Chorus: k.l.u]

Look how I've grown, I'm not what I used to be

And I won't fold, 'cause all of my roots run deep

And I got, I got this feeling that run down my spine

That I'm ready for whatever comes next, so I'm just taking my time

[Verse 2: callmestevieray]

I'm bout to push it to the limit

A lot of folks could, I wanna be the one who did it

That's word to mama, I'm infinite

I'm finna be something greater than piles of green paper and pictures that I've taken

I'm fresh in the fourth quarter and I can see 'em, they fading

This is where the good and the great get separated

I been so close so long that I can taste it

I just wanna feel like I earned me the celebration

Science of Logic in the fly shit that I kick

I spit the timeless shit that make your mind split

My shit designed divine, I can't hide it

This little light of mine, ooh, I'm shining

I know that where ever it's at, where you can find it

The rest all timing, that's why I'm gliding

Pack light the flow might capsize the boat

Shit, that's why I float, the key is to stay grounded

[Chorus: k.l.u]

Look how I've grown, I'm not what I used to be

And I won't fold, 'cause all of my roots run deep

And I got, I got this feeling that run down my spine

That I'm ready for whatever comes next, so I'm just taking my time

[Outro: callmestevieray]

I gotta tell you I'm fine

'Cause I don't have the heart to say what's on my mind

It's nothing left to say that can change my mind

I wanna take my time but can't break my stride

So if you love me, then let me know

But if you don't you better let me go

The first sunshine gotta let me grow

Just let me grow, or let me go

'Cause I've been too close to call it

Standing on the edge and I just might fall in

Whole lotta times that I thought 'bout calling

Knowing it ain't promised, I'ma make it to morning

And all I am, what I know now

And all I ask is that you hold me down

I'm on my way, I'm almost there

Just don't look back, I swear we almost there
