[Intro]

Back walking this road again, but it's a little different this time

I stuck to it and I did it. Nobody will bring me down


[Chorus]

I walk that road, I know that I'll make it

Place called home, going back to a Brave kid

Born on a line, my struggle to greatness

Route 7 mine, forever I claim this

I walk that road, I know that I'll make it

Place called home, going back to a Brave kid

Born on a line, my struggle to greatness

Route 7 mine, forever I claim this


[Verse 1]

It's all 'bout me, the pain I've seen

The pressure that I felt when I turned 19

All on me, eyes on me

Words scribbled down on a notebook sheet

And they all 'bout me, now watch me shine

Still the same Def that you met in '05

The Disstape sound stay fresh in Def's mic

So if you wanna hate, then I guess I spit rhymes

Back to that town on the PA line

Back to the roads that I walked, route signs

Back to the dust kicked up from a train and the coal mines

The black lung that my granddaddy died from

I'm not mad, I'm proud of where I came from

It's just too bad you ain't say Def won

I'm def done, this game is just def dumb

You don't talk about nothing, you rep nothing


[Chorus]

I walk that road, I know that I'll make it

Place called home, going back to a Brave kid

Born on a line, my struggle to greatness

Route 7 mine, forever I claim this

I walk that road, I know that I'll make it

Place called home, going back to a Brave kid

Born on a line, my struggle to greatness

Route 7 mine, forever I claim this


[Verse 2]

I pull my hat down right in front of my face

And I don't want none of ya'll knowing my name

I'd rather turn around just to leave in God's grace

Than rep a rap game that has grown to be fake

So I thought, why wait? That's why I never sing

Now I'm moving on to a bigger, better thing

I'll always be Def, but I'll never need a sling

I'll never need to prove myself to you again

Though admittedly, some of you will talk shit

And that's just fine, cause it's so childish

Now that I'm full-grown, I can say now that I'm past it

Though I'm still jotting notes on a napkin

A friend once said, "Def you is dope, kid

'Fore you let go, just think of why you wrote this."

So I did, all I saw was hopeless

Now I'm hopeful, let it go to just live


[Chorus]

I walk that road, I know that I'll make it

Place called home, going back to a Brave kid

Born on a line, my struggle to greatness

Route 7 mine, forever I claim this

I walk that road, I know that I'll make it

Place called home, going back to a Brave kid

Born on a line, my struggle to greatness

Route 7 mine, forever I claim this

I walk that road, I know that I'll make it

Place called home, going back to a Brave kid

Born on a line, my struggle to greatness

Route 7 mine, forever I claim this

I walk that road, I know that I'll make it

Place called home, going back to a Brave kid

Born on a line, my struggle to greatness

Route 7 mine, forever I claim this

Forever, I claim this


[Outro]

I'm finally home
