The Underdog Let me be the first to make this clear (Ah huh) Ain't no room to doubt or interfere (Wus up) They be lookin, they be clockin They be on me (You ain't know) Bout to shut it down You know I don't do talkin (how I roll) I been told (I ain't shit) I been told (I ain't fit) I don't hold (No grudges) What you know (About this) Such an acquired taste I know some can relate Ain't no need for debate Surround myself by the greats Killin it, im feelin it I walk in the vicinity They eye on me I got em wit the pedigree They doggin on me scratchin on em Underneath da skin. Oh yeah, aye Know they feel a way But know I could care less about it Think about it, what they benefittin Ain't no need to bother Y'all ain't ready for this lion Comin from the den Take a step back This ain't for them basic lads Watch yaself and get up off my throne, hey Doin y'all a favor Hate me now and thank me later Aah huh playas I know how it go I'll be like Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, naaah Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, naaah Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, naaah Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, naaah You callin me the underdog I'm the one Shook it up I put it in the light and let it run Callin me the underdog mane ain't no need to front It's my season.

The top dogs will now be the underdogs And I put that on everything that I admire that we setting this decade on fire Only The Reel, Out Of Sight, Stay In Mind You cant do nothing but respect the movement and the grind you heard Reel Heartbroken so lately I'm feeling numb You got the bread and you never shared a crumb You rap for fun, me I rap for funds Now I'm wanting all the smoke till I'm collapsing a lung Hope your legs feeling right you been running from the truth Boy you begging to be signed, but they know you can't recoup Cause you flexing for the gram, while you showing off a coupe But you know it ain't yours, the facade is getting loot uh How many rappers in SoFlo can out rap me aye Tell em Nunn like Kendrick dawg or better yet a catholic aye Simply put, me and you we cut from different fabrics You could stick to your singles me I'm out here putting classics We gon be the biggest out yeah I called it myself Mount Rushmore of Broward watch me carve it myself We was only making songs now they all on the shelf Out Of Sight, Stay In Mind we at large with the stealth I done let you get this far without no repercussions So when they see we on, boy I bet you see me stuntin Cause I played by the books, and never sold my soul for money They get thirsty for the fame, that's not the same as being hungry Know the difference, I'm moving with purpose and efficiency Comparing me to you is like a mansion to efficiencies A hoopty to Infinity, Connected like Xfinity I'm black and middle class so all my life they had to limit me So timidly, I played a fool, patience was my greatest move Don't matter if it's mine or hers we making major moves Decipher my cyphers, I'm on a hill word to Cypress I could've been laying there lifeless So I wanna thank God your highness Years they been playing me, as if success is not near So I get emotional when they like boy you top tier, uh On my life and I'm trying not to get emotional But she told me this when everything was said and done she heard the entire track She said whatever it is she saying this through tears She said whatever it is that you're doing the world if they don't Hear what y'all have keep going She said if this is my last moment on earth if you don't hear any And I'm trying I'm trying not to cry Aaah too late I'm, I'm, I'm there. Too late She said if you don't hear nothing else from me all the nay sayers That's comin at you and sayin oh you ain't this and you ain't that She said keep going. Don't stop. Keep going. Keep thriving. Keep pushing All the people that tell you "No." All the people that say oh no you ain't this oh no you ain't that And so I'm relaying this message to you to tell you. Keep. Fucking. Going. All the shit that we pay All the time and the energy and the sacrifice Don't stop! don't And imma be right there with you every step of the way I don't care how which we gotta get it we gon fucking get it bro Fasho Its deeper than fucking music. This shit saved our fucking life
