[Verse 1: JORDAN]
Gotta make choices for the whole life in front of me
Time to grow up, but the kid is only 17
Damn man, I don't even got an ID
Can't tell you what I'll be, I don't even know me
All I know for certain is that music is my passion
At this point, everything else is a distraction
Know what I love, now it's time to take action
Burning these labels down to muthafuckin' ashes
Battle these critics while I battle myself
Cause I know drinkin' and smokin' ain't good for my health
But if I want wealth, I feel they a neccessity
So I can't put this bowl down; I decline respectfully
My own worst enemy, everydays a battle
But I channel all this passion into every line I rattle
And maybe sometimes I may seem like I just babble
But then I strike gold in the words that I ramble
I can handle all the pressure, even when it mounts
Provin people wrong if they livin' with a doubt
Imma mouth off to athority, if I find em dissin' me
Not satisfied till I gotta grammy; fuck a nominee
Imma be anything that people say I'm not
Pot head's the exception, cuz I sure smoke a lot
But can you really blame me? it catapult my thoughts
Hopefully it can help catapult me to the top
If I don't make it at least I know I tried
Denied givin' in, provided you my mind
And they that grass is always greener on the other side
But my lawns maintained damn green, no lie
Fly through this night, in this war Imma fight
Battle to the end so I know I did it right
Life's got color, I don't see in black and white
'Cause if you spit it nice you deserve to have a mic, word
[Hook: Etta James sample]
Oh, sometimes I get a good feeling, yeah
Get a feeling that I never never never never had before, no no
I get a good feeling, yeah
Oh, sometimes I get a good feeling, yeah
Get a feeling that I never never never never had before, no no
I get a good feeling, yeah
[verse 2: JORDAN]
Finally movin, never stoppin what I'm doin
I found my true love, and her name is music
Pedal to the medal I be lovin' how I'm cruisin
Dedicated to the dream I'll never stop pursuin
You only live once, and you're only young once
So Imma live it up before my time is up
Never gave a fuck, of what the critics think of me
Still don't give a fuck; run your mouth, keep dissin me
To your friends, in the end, i know I'll leave my mark
I been spittin' sick since the muffuckin' start
Lifestyle can not make it, but make up for it in heart
So nobody can stop me from sitin' top the charts
A part of my is rappin, a part of me is drugs
A part of me is everyone around me that I love
A part of me is all the shit I'll have to rise above
But victory is only sweet if gettin' there is tough
Have learned a lot of lessons, so every lines a message
Abstract track so I keep the bitches guessin
Live long enough to be a villian or die a legend?
So I guess suicide really ain't out of the question
Lesson to be learned? Money's tough to earn
But respect is bought with money, so that's a big concern
Make it or not, my soul finna burn
And I'll leave for a second, just so I can return
At the top
I'll leave for a second to return at the top
