What am I doing this rap shit for?

It’s my escape, I’m trapped inside these bars, I’m sure

My niggas [are] telling me that I will be a household name

In a few years, get a few degrees, then flames

Music is for the people, tell a story; so they can relate

If they don’t, they find linkages on your life as an artist

And their own life stories, so they [can] turn a page

Move calmly and act, don’t do it out of rage

Chill out, relax and set your mind free

Go and watch your favourite show with a bowl of ice-cream

Tell that girl you love her and substantiate politely

Type that final essay, and construct those words concisely

Take a risk and make that investment, it will materialize

Love ain’t the same, it’s viewed with material eyes

These days, it’s “buy me a dress” or “I hope she surprises me with a leather jacket”

Dress to impress

But here’s the naked truth

Your circle needs positivity, so that you improve

Your friends should educate you, not be jealous of your moves

Your words need energy behind them, not an autotune

Your attitude that drives your dreams need that extra fuel

For an individual that touches success, there’s an “I” and “you”

By “i” and “u”, I speak of two vowels within the alphabet

“U” vow to tell your story titled “I” AM A SUCCESS

Been on these major platforms for a year or so

I love the music, so I took it further

Somebody they ain’t heard of

I’m innocent at heart

But I’m killing it with music, so the PO-PO can arrest me for murder

People from outside the country taking time to listen to me

Wow, you wouldn’t believe

It felt like a dream when I went to Romans’ Pizza and the money paying for that box of pizza came from my streams

“You’ll never make money from music” Dunno who said that shit, but clearly you must be mistaken

I wake up, my eyes must be deceiving me. Taken EP getting a few thousand streams in the past 8 months

To be honest, music gives me a level of happiness that I cannot explain

Only you know your passion, you live once after all. Don’t miss out because you were afraid

Go find what makes you happy, you are the generator, the machine of fecundity

Work a 9-to-5, but use it as your side hustle. Get the money that you need, feed the passion comfortably

I’m tall, but I need a building for my dreams; touch the skyscraper

You need to tell more stories from the heart, not the mind

You need to know life is not always about paper

Fall in love with your passion and stay on the grind
