At the age of 19
I was given a choice
Pursue this college life
Or give a fuck bout my voice
I chose both in hopes that I'd be rollin’ deep in a Royce
Hopes that I could bring a stack home to my folks and rejoice
Was hopin' that in Chicago they'd hear my Illi-noise
I’d hop on every single track and leave a critic destroyed
But I ain't seen the shit that came with chasin' dreams in a void
You play the game enough eventually you run outta coin
I was avoidin' chasin' truth, cuz I was chasin' a check
But now I'm doin' this for me and now I’m feelin’ correct
So since I'm done pursuin’ riches, And my foot on ya nеck
I wanna say this here with full, and I mean all, disrеspect
[Chorus]
I'm sayin'
Y'all muhfuckas look the same to me
Keep it 360
I don’t see no Kings
I see chumps clout chasin'
I don't see no fiends
I‘m bouta make ya fans “forget you”
Like Cee Lo sings
I'm setting precedents unprecedented, That's on me
I'm steady at this rappin shit, because it set me free
And that's on G
I don't gotta say no thing
I even got a killer drive
When my tank's on “E”
[Verse 2]
Listen to what you made,We just not the same
You and your crew full of lames, You should be ashamed
All the money you claim, With little to your name
Rather than switch up your image, You bought a picture frame
I been accustomed to false prophets and bad actors
Surrounded by fast money obsessed rappers
Tough on the flashin lights n big cameras
Then turn around and the whole time they fake trappers
[Break]
Generational Quest Melo'll tell you this
I never been bout the call outs, or shaded diss
I never been bout the fall outs or rented whips
They all frontin', what other rapper would tell
You this?
My clothes old, my shoes beat, my smile wide
I quit buggin bout what I got on the outside
Son of God with a ton of talk in my brown eyes
I‘m still sonnin' these rappers until the sunrise
[Verse 3]
I still drown em in verses that leave em baptized
This ain't a game this a competition of men and mics
I like to listen to brothas before I chastise
So if I come at you homie I thought about it twice
I member back in the summer of one-nine
I met a mind
Whose visions and verses resemble mine
Fuck round and find
That our words could be applied to
Bring light to topics that people just been blind to
I highlight the good mixed with the bad
N' find balance
Between all of the talents I'm tryna master
You couldn't stomach the things I seen as the
King that turned rapper
Grandson of a pastor
Shoutout my people who cop an eighth an a masters
Blessed be every bastard
Kids labeled as “hazards”
Shoutout my people who in a second could gather and
Brandish Black Banners and fight the powers established
I gotta give it my all
I can't give any less
Fuck takin over Milwaukee, I want the Midwest
I want the nation to listen to me, we got next
You bout to hear the finest of Generational Quest
Melo
Let's get it
