[Intro: Emilio Rojas]
You know Emilio, he eat organic
And he speak authentic, he ain’t nothin' but his mama son
And his women never need augmentin' cause they be all tens
And they be beggin' him to fall in love
He from a city where they hold no punches
And they show no justice when them cell bars closin' shut
He had a father that abused him and booked it
So he moved into Brooklyn just to figure it was close enough
[Verse One: Emilio Rojas]
I made a home wherever I may have roamed in
I do not think I am better, I made it known
‘Cause I made it on my own
I ain’t have co-signs, I ain’t tryin' to pay a loan
Mama worked most nights, had to raise us on her own
Yeah, I ain’t complainin', only sayin' what I know
And I’m aimin' at explainin' what the fate I might have chose is
I get acclaim for the way that I compose this
I was born great, see the weight that’s on my shoulders
It’s nothin', I could shrug it off, yeah, I come a long way
From that youngin' that would punch until his knuckles raw
I made my city look good like a wonder bra
Now they lookin' up in my hood, it’s like a muscle car
I never hustle raw but I got respected by the hustlers
‘Cause I’m so fly, I’m above the law, this the story of a Cinderella
Yeah, I went from shopping up inside of Wegmans to Citarella
I been repellin' them blood suckers like citronella candles
Everything I handle is big or better
Bigger homes, fitted clothes, thicker hoes
Now I’m fishin' on a boat in the cold ‘Cific snows yeah
‘Cause the city where I’m from so cold
That the poe would get smoked by a 14 year old, right?
He took the charge, I don’t think he did the shootin' though
‘Cause he know at 18, they let him out of juvie though
Yeah, and that’s the birth of a street legend
And this a ghetto arms race, who gon’ reach Heaven?
And we ain’t choose this lifestyle, it’s predestined
So when we answer the call, there ain’t gon’ be questions
And E test the waters and then I make a splash
The way they shower me with gifts, I could take a bath
I could get used to this shit, let’s make it last
So you could tell me what you make of that
[Hook]
They was sayin' that he wouldn’t be nothin'
And they shouldn’t even touch him
Now they sayin' that he’s next in line
Cause it’s certain that he’s gon be blowin'
Cause the buzz keep growin' and he know he’d be the best to shine
And he do it, it goes one for my mama
Two for my hoes, three for my city
And four for my la-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-la
La-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-la
[Verse Two: Emilio Rojas]
Listen, I’m driven to get a driver
I’m lovin' every minute, I’m livin' like a survivor
I’m comfortable in my skin, it’s like a recliner
And since I’ve given forgiveness to my father
The world’s opened up for me, my city swears that I’m on
And all them older heads, they lookin' up to me
Like I’m a role model 'cause I dated more models
And I’m buying out the whole spot except the floor model
My new squeeze, them dresses is too chic
She in it for a home and never settle for no room key
My dudes need for nothin', they all satisfied
We on that road to success like a relaxin' drive
Have to smile and people say that I changed
I feel bad for ‘em if they still stayin' the same
I’m goin', I ain’t stayin' in place ‘cause life is a gamble
And I’m raisin' the stakes, I ain’t playin' it safe
The world watchin' cause this that moment in time
Where everything that you dream becomes a option
When everybody that you rollin' with believe in you
You starin' in that mirror and you seein' what they see in you
Them label dudes is takin' a rhyme masters
Fans would eat it up if it was easier to digest
But I stood my ground, I never digress
And now Emilio’s a fuckin' poster boy for progress
[Hook]
They was sayin' that he wouldn’t be nothin'
And they shouldn’t even touch him
Now they sayin' that he’s next in line
Cause it’s certain that he’s gon be blowin'
Cause the buzz keep growin' and he know he’d be the best to shine
And he do it, it goes one for my mama
Two for my hoes, three for my city
And four for my la-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-la
La-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-la
