[Verse 1]

The outcome of life is what you choose to be focused on

Rat infested apartments

Roaches ran right through the carpet

But still i see a way

Hold on till i see the day

Where i ain't gotta see uncertainty all on my family's face

Bill collectors show no remorse

I swear ill come back to this bitch to stunt on em in a new porsche

I let it burn like Usher Raymond

Cuz to make it you need patience

The definition of it

Is how you function

With the fuck shit

Under pressure won't bust a pipe

Cuz thats a sight

They'd like

To see but instead they'll see me take flight

I was destined to win

Tell me whose gifted as him

To break out this box like David Blaine in the end

Cold hearted bastard but don't overlook the flame in the pen

Out of the frying pan and into the fire

Bad turns into worse but i gotta laugh through it like Pryor

Please

Hit the L to get farther from hell float like an autumn breeze

So many nights that i stood up put pen to sheet

So many nights that i dubbed the people right next to me

Cuz when your trying to be great

The greatest effort's what it takes

The greatest effort's what it takes

Blood don't make you related

The concept is complicated

Cuz homies that was always there for me and never hated

Taught me that steel sharpen up steel and you have greatness

Coming from a wordsmith

Turned into a black smith

Juggling these bars

And every punchline hard

Bite down if you wanna you'll be dislocating your jaw yeah

I got a chip on my shoulder size of my state

Been getting stronger the longer that i hold up this weight

Bullet proof for all my enemies show em i never break

Forever thankful even if its only scraps on my plate

Destined to make a way

You could bet the bank on me still you gon watch me get paid

Tell me can you relate

When they that pressure makes diamonds the other option is clay

You don't understand pressure till they tell you, you gon be great

But your broke as fuck

So what im the chosen one

That don't pay the bill

No i never been the only one
