Intro

I dont think people know whats its like to be a rapper

To walk around and people know who you are

But they dont respect you they dont want to know you

They just want the name or the face

Verse

Im telling you now im more than that

Its your loss if I get ignored in class

Just consort the stats im a afl quarterback

And the starters sign autographs

Under the name bored of rap

Writing like a doctor going through courts and labs

Im ready in the wing and you still force em back

I take the practice reps and throw a gorgeous pass

It soars assistant coaches roared and often ask

Why I hardley laugh because I start the pack

Far from slack but my career off the glass is charlie batch

I want to move on im tired of backing up

These fake snakes acting tough after us

Im real I guess they dont mask enough

Real is dead a must blowing off the casket dust

Im under your skin I bask in dusk

The sun comes down I dont ask for much

My past was rough you laugh but half you stuck

Placid with lean inside of plastic cups

Put it down you dont have the guts

So I stay true see through Plexiglass as blood

This life is not what you want

Nor what you think

Its a sport we all hunting for game

Humble beggings and camo becoming my gain

Lost in my forrest of pain the trail is something ordain

But then comes a wild fire and whirl wind

Set the past ablaze until the second world ends

My problem was I lit the flame for my girl friend

She came back with extinguishers wouldn't let it burn then

I guess you can say I haven't been feeling sparks

Social media and fake texts ain't healing hearts

The whole world Is broken light bulbs are dealing dark

In my own room idk where the floor ends and ceiling starts

Im so lost my guardian angel is cross eyed

Her wings are trap music and shes just trying floss mine

A gold chain as her halo like she coming out of ross mind

Shes lucky I saved my saved myself shes dosent know this cost lives

If you cross my path your bound to quit

If your about that cash you won't amount to this

I stand my ground you crown what surrounds your wish

I hope you drown in the shooting stars coming out my lips

What im talking bout is a different kind of spit

Im the shine you glitz every time it hits

If I miss we decide to derive my wit

Im going to grind till I find my nitch

Im doing this half strength running fast break

The old me dunking on the glass pain potenial speeding last place

Imagine what will happen after getting out that bad taste

Motumbo backing away and getting the michael jordan sad face

In other words just wait till im 23

I can be that sitting bull until I master wizardry

While gathering at the garden and I ain't talking msg

Becsuse when I retire the whole world be missing me

My impact is greater your thin raps a crater

My ink black as vader my syntax my saber

I can mismatch my data

My lies a lit match evader my truths go quick fast to paydirt

Im just open an flame ready for the wind to blow

Opposite of self contained im from the place where winters go

Raised going against the grain the reason summer never finished yo

Frostbite flowing through my veins I bleed then I pen it snow

I got that fire under me I can weather any storm

When it rains it pours and I can better many more

Huge gusts asking rain what you venting for?

Rain asking wind does it matter just get indoors

Most of these rappers trying to get endorsed

When it rains it pours till endorsements hitting floors

But really not getting endorsed your getting forced

Your misinformed im indie and spitting more

Bars, your career can fit in four

I split em like rent to students who sit in dorms

The words they conform make me the land to the lord

They open they hands to there fans get ignored

But there brand in stands and they chant till they answer the door

But im taking this chance to advance and explore

Past all the rants and to dance with décor

Stopping you know I can't till im not the man anymore

Outro

And with that, people gotta understand this is my life

Im never going to stop, I just gotta get my feet under me a little bit

Retep for life retep for ever
