Lyrics
Yeah, started from zero
But we never had zero ambition
I saw it all before it came to fruition
The fruits from my labor and vision meant
I would never dwell at the place I was livin'
I would rather make me a living while feeling alive
I'll tell my niece about my dad
She'd never seen him alive but I see him when I'm sleeping at night
What's a guardian angel when there's a demon inside of your thoughts
Sponsored by success and there's people that I would endorse
So, I'm tryna see the whole team eat
We was going OT now we go O-T-T for the money
Clean up, I got OCD, from nights in the hood to an OBE
Maybe-e, love is from the hate we breed
'Cause my blood cousin fuckin' try to make me bleed
I won't ever let it go, son of a gun
You won't ever let it go, I get it in and you won't ever get involved
No bad energy, I wish the best for my enemy
Mama told me that I should repent cause it would replenish me
I said eventually, nothing set in stone 'till the cemetry
I hope they lift me up after they bury me
That's what you call legendary, Jay-Z, Big, and Dame
Thats like G, Rollie and AV
We're the same and if not, then we're to blame
It doesn't add up, we're on the road to fame
Money over problems, I was here for change
They ain't ready for the war
We're the yellow tape and the chalk, yeah
Look at everything I bought
All from the pennies from my thoughts, yeah
They ain't ready for the war
We're the yellow tape and the chalk, yeah
Look at everything I bought
All from the pennies from my thoughts, yeah
I'm writin' this from my grave
I've died and I've gone away
My wife is in Holloway
And Sky is on holiday
If Kai isn't gonna rain
I've tried, should I contemplate?
The nights I was on the plane
Providing what's on the plate
If I couldn't stop the pain, then maybe I caused it
If I couldn't fuck the game, then maybe I balls'd it
But if you can't bring up your bae, then maybe you bought it
'Cause they thought you can leave
Your change, you're enslavin' your orphan
Or maybe I'm a slave to endorsements
Maybe I took this paper ting way out of proportion
Maybe it had me rappin' for the plaques where my
Wall is but now I'm ghost they keep on saying I'm awesome
"I used to love Wretch when he was broke way before the success
Man, I'm talkin' F64
That's way before the dreads and all this
Righteous Selassie bless, he was inna di ghetto, just him and Ghetts"
Man, you don't know my story, you just know my glory
I'm Shakespeare and Charles Dickens going Hamlet off me
I'm Spielberg and Spike Lee cameras on or off me
Man, I paint a picture like DaVinci, get a canvas from me
But you have to pay cash money
I'm already your Dad's son
You see your father has stolen his raps from me
Any clash that I have should be the Clash of the Titans, why would I?
Battle with some shits when I could rap up your highness
This ain't a problem, it's just simple mathematics, the minus
I'm still above you even when I'm reclinin'
I'm still above you even when I'm declinin'
And if you get above me, it's because I decided
I'm passin' the baton
They ain't ready for the war
We're the yellow tape and the chalk, yeah
Look at everything I bought
All from the pennies from my thoughts, yeah
They ain't ready for the war
We're the yellow tape and the chalk, yeah
Look at everything I bought
All from the pennies from my thoughts, yeah
