[Intro]

Sammy is coming

Hm yeah, mhm, in the running, yeah


[Verse 1]

I would say I'm in the running, it's been seven years coming

I tormented that fruity loops 'n turned it into something

It was built from really nothing, like a building out the wind

Got a twenty dollar mic, trust me eBay is your friend

But really there's no one but my kin can tell you where I've always been

And trust me where I'm at right now was never brought up or pretend

Let's begin, I'll tell ya how this whole thing happened

Talk my talk and walk the walk and final through with action, call me pretty boy but now you know that I'm not acting

Was always in my own world, up until the class ten

Back then, wasn't in the fractions

Asked me what I wanted to be, but never have told you rapping


[Hook]

F-F-Funny who knew what I wanted to do

I was no joke, I had something to prove

I'm in the running and making my moves

This is a game I'm not willing to lose

F-F-Funny who knew what I wanted to do

I was no joke, I had something to prove

I'm in the running and making my moves

This is a game I'm not willing to lose


[Verse 2]

I am not willing to lose, I'm killing to prove, now I'm spilling the truth

I don't got time for this shit anymore, but somehow I'm still in the booth

Feeling the groove, filling these shoes, addiction it's so thrilling to do

But now it got so complicated, wanna go back to when it was just chilling and cruise

No rules only freestyle and pass that

I just take my time while everyone is on that fast track

Always bet the other way, that's money on the Nasdaq

And I don't need a message 'cause I know I get my cash back

Fat stacks, I capitalize on what they doubting

Always knew I had to stay quiet when they were shouting

Still in the building facing my castle up on the mountain

Counting every single brick 'till it's built

Now it's stable it don't tilt, every track that I have killed

Yeah I'm in my bedroom still, I don' give a shit for real

Only do this 'cause I love it, give a fuck 'bout how you feel

And like I said back in the day, this is my drug I need my fill


[Hook]

F-F-Funny who knew what I wanted to do

I was no joke, I had something to prove

I'm in the running and making my moves

This is a game I'm not willing to lose

F-F-Funny who knew what I wanted to do

I was no joke, I had something to prove

I'm in the running and making my moves

This is a game I'm not willing to lose

F-F-Funny who knew what I wanted to do

I was no joke, I had something to prove

I'm in the running and making my moves

This is a game I'm not willing to lose

F-F-Funny who knew what I wanted to do

I was no joke, I had something to prove

I'm in the running and making my moves

This is a game I'm not willing to lose
