[ verse 1 ]
wasn’t ready to being a millionaire , i was ill – prepared
i was prepared to be ill though , the skill was there
from the beginning , it wasn’t ’bout the ends
it was ’bout busting raps and standing for something , fxxk an acronym
cut the fxxking act like you’re happy , i’m fxxking back again
with another anthem , why stop when it doesn’t have to end?
it ain’t over ’til i say it’s over enough when i say enough
throw me to them wolves and close the gate up
i’m afraid of what’ll happen to them wolves
when the thought of being thrown into an alligator pit , i salivated it
weight is up , hands up like it’s 12 noon , nah , homie
hold them bitches straight up , up wave ’em ’til you dislocate a rotator cuff
came up rough , came to ruffle feathers , nah , egos
i ain’t deflate enough , last chance to make this whole stadium erupt
[ hook ]
[ verse 2 ]
i can see the finish line with each line that i finish
i’m so close to my goals i can almost pole vault over the goal post
and if i don’t got enough in the tank , maybe i can just siphon enough
to fill up this last can , man will i survive in this climate or what?
they said i was washed up , and got a blood bath
i’m not a rapper , i’m an adapter , i can adjust
plus i can just walk up to a mic and just bust
so floor’s open if you’d like to discuss
top 5 in this mothafxxka and if i don’t make the cut
what , like i give a fxxk , i’mma light this bitch up like i’m driving a truck
to the side of a pump , 0 to 60 hop in and gun it
like G – unit without the hyphen , i’m hyping ’em up
and if there should ever come a time where my life’s in a rut
and i look like i might just give up , eh you might’ve mistook
me for bowing out i ain’t taking a bow , i’m stabbing myself
with a fxxking knife in the gut , while i’m wiping my butt!
cause i just shitted on the mic , and like getting cut
i get excited at the sight of my blood , you’re in a fight with a nut
cause i’mma fight ’til i die or win
biting the dust it’ll just make me angrier , wait
let me remind you of what got me this far , picture me quitting
now draw a circle around it and put a line through it , slut
it’s survival of what?
[ hook ]
[ verse 3 ]
so get your ideas , stack your ammo
but don’t come unless you come to battle , i’m mad now jump in the saddle
this is it , it’s what you eat , sleep , piss and shit
lift , breathe , your whole existence just consists of this
refuse to quit , fuse is lit , can’t diffuse the wick
i don’t do this music shit , i lose my shit
ain’t got shit to lose , it’s the moment of truth
it’s all i know how to do , as soon as i get thrown in the booth , i spit
but my respect is overdue , i’m showing you the flow no one do
cause i don’t own no diploma for school , i quit!
so there’s nothing for me to fall back on , i know no other trades
so you’d better trade your fxxking mics in for some tool – box – es
cause you’ll never take my pride from me
it’ll have to be pried from me , so pull out your pliers and your screwdri – vers
but i want you to doubt me , i don’t want you to buh – lieve
cause this is something that i must use to suc – ceed
and if you don’t like me then fxxk you!
self es – teem must be fxxking shooting through – the – roof cause trust me
my skin is too thick and bul – let proof to touch me
i can see why the fxxk i disgust you
i must be A – llergic to failure cause everytime i come close to it
i just sneeze , i just go atchoo then achieve!
