Never listen to adults I turned up the volume on my speakers All I spend money on is alcohal and sneakers Hella MaryJane, I got bundles of reefer I slept through class, never listened to my teachers Cuz I ain't really feel what they was teachin' Allways had dreams but they said I'd never reach 'em Skipped to the back, I ain't turn one page Trying to tell you how to live at a young age If you don't go to school you'll make a dumb wage It's a ****ed up system, but it's never going to change I channel through my bars all the struggling, the pain Cuz I know my destiny is not to die with no name So what you got a doctorate, I built my own fame You in denial on the side like some chicken lo-mein I'm kicking propane when I enter the lab And Ninja Turtle swag, no Splinter of that I've spent on my dreams, but you've spent on a fag Cuz it's ill **** when I put the pen to the pad Chill son they already know this But it took them four years just to notice Irregaurdless I'm focused I just wanna say some ill **** So when I die they'll quote this And maybe then I'll get the props I deserve I know what I'm looking for it's right around the curb But can't seem to grab it I'm searching for the nerve Where the road to my riches and my dreams come to merge Where my lifestyle matches my words And trips to the sneaker shop are allways a splerge I'm getting there young, getting to a verge Of a breakthrough year where my success will emerge I made it here on my own, what can you say? My everyday life is marti gra tuesday Dray phones on listening to Lupe I'm knowing I should say more but I feel it's too late Record labels want bubble gum hits A groupie fan base filled with bubble gum chicks But when you're upstream up the struggle comes quick You're in a sea full of misery and trouble runs thick I'm not the one everyone thinks I am Brady in the six Not the number one pick I'm no music industry experiment This is my carreer I'm in the driver's seat steering it And there's some pressure on my shoulder's and I'm feeling it But some worth a sweat one five and I'm peeling it The word won deals done now I'm sealing it The infrastructure's blue printed now I'm out building it From the ground up, I still got a ways a go I ****ed the game raw yo plus fillachio Then I flipped her something like a cart wheel I'm authentic, can't make it if you aren't real I want to be remembered so I grind like a barrel Cuz my songs will beat longer than my heart will
