Paroles de Book Of Daniel
Before they chisel the last four numbers on my tombstoneKnow I left so many sons behind, could fill a group home
Inspired your favorite, so label me the greatest
This road was filled with potholes 'til I came through and paved it
Made it out a city where most just give up
Downplay the hard work and say it's just good luck
Used to write rhymes 'til I start to tear up
Lost a couple punchline 'cause the ink smeared up
Now I made it past a decade, who the top? Dot and Thebe
And that's me, the big three, don't give a fuck what they say
Don't care about the sales unless we moving them bills
And got fronted a load from Mexican cartels
But it's still life or death, it ain't hard to tell
And interviews snitching, still to make a sale
It's a cold world out there, keep your snorkels zipped up
Doing anything for content, see them numbers go up
How we go from mixtapes to clickbait?
Try to play me, tell me how my fist taste
Fuck punching in, I'ma write 'til my wrists break
So they can see the words every time they hit play
Rewind a couple times to understand what I'm tryna say
Still be doing this if the pay was minimum wage
A god MC, 'cause he talk through me
Just a vessel with a message, in due time you'll see
Was an addict with a habit 'cause this life, couldn't grasp it
Now it's magic when I sit behind the mic with a passage Sleeping real good at night 'cause I'm proud of myself
Say a prayer when I wake up because that rehab helped
When I didn't have hope, I was turning to dope
Drinking 'til I passed out 'cause I just couldn't cope
Everything I went through had me drowning on the surface
Discovered who I am, now I know my life purpose
So it was all worth it, now just pay me mind
I put my lifetime in between the paper lines
Every album is a chapter, when I die that's life after
So go back and listen, see I'm more than a rapper
Don't care about awards, not what I'm doing it for
Believe in yourself, and don't have a care in the world about what anybody think
Can't piss what they drink
When the fat lady sings, just know you lived your dreams
Don't be scared (Nah), it's alright (Yeah)
We're gonna make it by the end of the night (Let's go)
Rain or shine (Uh), it's alright (Yeah)
We're gonna make it by the end of the night
Come on, we're outta here, we're outta here, gone, gone (Go, go, yo, uh, yeah)
Come on, we're outta here, we're outta here, gone, gone (Uh, uh, yeah, yeah, we out)
Lost a couple punchline 'cause the ink smeared up
Now I made it past a decade, who the top? Dot and Thebe
And that's me, the big three, don't give a fuck what they say
Don't care about the sales unless we moving them bills
