[Verse 1]
Snapback and chain on and I’m ready to go
I’ve practiced lots of times for this, that’s something I’ll show
I won’t screw up, I know I can do this
But I’ma go one time, not in for a remix
Everyone’s gonna see me, I know their gonna like it
I’m not backing out of it, I’m not gonna quit
Hate me or love me, that’s the risk I'mma take
Cuz I'mma show my true self, cuz I’m not a fake
I want people to like me for who I am, not just for my raps
I‘m a young guy who might be safe to stay outta traps
Anything can happen, what goes around comes around
And whatever it is, I’ll always be proud
Cuz I’ll still be livin a great life, with family, fans and friends
I hope it goes forever and I hope it’ll never end
I know sometimes life can always get mean and rough
But I guess it’s just our way to show some tough love
[Hook]
I remembered when I was down, and thought I couldn’t do it
But I was helped to a special place, rap lead me to it
It’s time for me show what I’m about, so then everyone will know
Cuz someday I’ll make it, that’s my biggest hope
[Verse 2]
I remember back in 2009, I was just chillin’ with my guitar
Used to do my thing, at school, my room, clubs, cars
But instead I started to rap, and realized I’m pretty good at it
People started to listenin’ to me, then became Lil Phil addicts
I live a very weird life, but I love it somehow
I remember when I dreamed of it, but look at me now
Partially livin’ my dream, rapping on da mic
I successfully made songs, doin’ raps everybody likes
Then I got hataz, but I never cared and still got my fate
But I stood up and like John Cena, I Rise Above Hate
Although I didn’t get a deal, I still rap in stages
People cheer me, too bad for people holdin’ up their rage
Even the school I went to, I can’t believe I used to respect it
For years, it’s the place I liked, but now it’s not what I expect
Now everything’s gettin’ stupid, but things used to be dope
Be great if it was what it used be, that’s one of my hopes
[Hook]
[Verse 3]
I’m just on FL Studio, tryna make beats
Collabing with all these other rappers, or just featuring
Them so then we can be more known, that’s our mission
But we all work together, no1’s ditching
I go on tryna make projects, already got one complete
And another on the way, call it music deeds
At hopeless times, I say Insha Allah, and it helps me gets thru it
They say “how do I get what’s coming?” and that’s how I prove it
Am I a religious person, my answer’s yes
Just like what FS said, I’m not lucky, I’m just blessed
I love what I do, and it’s something I’ll always do
Cuz I’m attached to it, together we’re glued
Along with that, at this point, living pretty harshly
Cuz I’m living my normal life partially
I’m just standing with the mic, tellin’ everybody what I deal with
Cuz I’m an honest rapper, so in the future, don’t take me as a myth
Tryna make the best outta of me, so everybody chill
Don’t get offended, just stick wit’ tha will
[Hook]
[Verse 4]
Just chillin’ with my man Pac Mak, tryna be the best in town
But the chances of us rappin’ together are going down
Although we collabed on a few tracks, it’s only a few
Hopefully collab more when we have less work to do
Mazin, Mujtaba, all of Killaz Records
We should all get together, and rap instead of sayin’ words
By saying words, I mean talking trash, instead of what’s real
Talking about hittin’ J’s, but I was rappin’ bout deals
Insha’Allah, I can clear things off my mind
And listening to my projects, just rewinding
I stay dreamin’ about these lifestyles, but I keep trying
But it’s fun at the same time, I ain’t lying
I do my music for myself, and if the fans like it
Hataz tryna be like me, I said go ahead and try it
People talkin trash in school, some are true
I just walk away, and respect the truth
I make lots of mistakes, but that’s everybody’s illness
I learn from them and I pray to Allah for forgiveness
That’s another hope, also tryna collab with many artists
Just like Muhammad Ali, I am the greatest but not the smartest
Tellin’ everybody about my lifestyle, nothin’ wrong about it
Even my beliefs, cuz the 2012 phenomenon is my highest doubt
Started from a untalented guitarist, to the new definition of dope
Cuz one day I’ll be the best, and that’s my hope
