[Terrell]
Tell me is this the beginning of a backpack rapper tryna make it
Surrounded by my dreams and peers that only wanna take it
I don't know if they just jealous of the shit that I'm creating
Cause they wanna watch me fall but I'mma catch them while they waiting
True story, through all this time I'm spending swear I'm bound for new glory
New heights, try to stop me now
Coming up too fast I swear you need to lock me down
I always hear, where Samaad Thompson go
Its Terrell, blow ya mind, lock and load
I'mma come up on some new styles
That shit that get ya whole crew loud
You hear it all through crowds
And I ain't even gotta say it , what's up
Promised to stay strong while she looking down from heaven
That's why I battle hard, gotta keep it honest
Girls say I always seem to say the right thing
That's cause I'm hooked on phonics
There was a time where this ain't make much sense
Now I'm the topic of ya conversation , yeah I take hints
You say I'm destined for greatness
See, my father, he just wasn't there
And at this point in life, the reasons, I just couldn't care
I ain't mean to make it sound bad, just listen
Still lived my life, he just went missing
So now you listen around, see we on different grounds
I ain't So Lost, I found the missing sound
Officially welcoming you into his life, he’s ready to go after what is needed to be accomplished in his life.
People tend to knock on how similar his style is to Drizzy
So simply, he’s switching on them to get anyone listening.
He pursues his music and dreams as if there is no tomorrow, staying true to his promise to his lost grandmother.
Going off of what was previously said, the time that he’s now spending on pushing himself is sure to help him make it while boasting for anyone to give an attempt at stopping him.
No matter what happens it’s pretty hard to discourage him from being persistent.
He hears “Where Samaad Thompson go?” Samaad Thompson being his first and last name because the people around him notice changes in who he is and he replies “Its Terrell” Terrell being middle name and stage name, he’s saying that as focused as he is with music, there is no more Samaad.
We now know the reason that girls tell him that he always seems to know the right thing to say to them.
He never actually has studied with Hooked On Phonics
Based on the talking he’s been able to provide more of what is favorable while being able to still stay true to himself musically.
Terrell has been said to be pretty damn honest in his lyrics, a main reason people compare him to Drake.
Referencing his first LP “So Lost” and what was meant to be his debut album “FOUND” Terrell states that he’s no longer lost as he’s found what he’s been missing and is now on a different level compared to then.
Few have said that he seems as if he was meant to do music, it also would happen to be his talent too.
But on top of that, he claims that crafting the talent was something done entirely on his own.
Without having to speak, he can shut up anybody who hated on past styles.
Though he’s been doing the music thing for a few years now, he’s only recently started feeling like its possible for him to actually make something while everyone around him becomes someone that seems to more so want him to fail more than ever now.
He’s not sure if they’re jealous or what but they do want him to fall and crash and once he proves them wrong he’ll instead be there to catch them from falling.
Admitting at some point during his music career that the music didn’t really make sense to him.
Black American dad story. Though, Terrell isn’t complaining, he says its helped him live his life and maybe he wouldn’t be who he is today if his father was around.
- Boasting about what was previously said, asking “what’s up?”
- He tells what’s up in his head directly after and continues to spill all through the rest of the song.
What’s up: What you gonna do about it?
Good or bad, he’s being talked about which just gives him more attention that he feeds off of.
On October 1, 2011, hit hard with the new that he lost his Great Grandmother earlier in the day, he took it to heart and promised her that he would do everything he can to do his best and be successful.
He misses her and he’s hoping that she’s resting in peace.
