Tell me it was all in my head
Crawling, but I won't lose my grip
On this war that I'm waging, I can't beat the end
The shadows surround me, but I'll never them in
Yeah, I'm back in the booth, feelin' relentless (Ooh)
I never left, just pivoting my direction (Go)
Or better yet, the path I was destined
But nevertheless, still the next best investment (Woo)
I know this life is a battle of will
I came up, got paid, but, I'm passionate still (Yeah)
Lift the game up once, now, I'm back for the kill
They drop lines that'll give your favorite rapper the chills, come on (Woo)
But, I don't do it for the gold medals or ribbons (No)
I do it for myself, and no, fed up with livin'
I won't settle for driven, my soul set on a misson (Yeah)
I done rose outta hell, and broke every limit
Tell 'em: "Just watch (watch) ", I ain't takin' a rest
Got the next stop for me is a crib in the Red Rocks
A Prescott, just to get the homies a good spot (Woo)
To let 'em know the money and my soul have been wedlock (Woo)
'Cause in the past, I would get on beats
And rap with enough force to make a Jedi bleed
Had friends that were tellin' me - neglect my dreams
And I done turned into everything I said I'd be (Woo)
For the one who made rap, put the city on the map
The one who left home, got rich and came back (Ooh)
To them show them all that "Life is what you make it"
And every last dream's worth chasin', get on
Tell me it was all in my head
Crawling, but I won't lose my grip
On this war that I'm waging, I can't beat the end
The shadows surround me, but I'll never them in
Yeah, I got a battle, I'm fighting and walk a fine line (fine line)
With good and evil, just hoping I'm on the right side (side)
I take a little time in my mind
You're gonna be begging me to leave and finish the game on the sidelines
I'm going sky high with thickest wings (Yeah)
I'm too close to the sun, at least I been in the heat (Yeah)
I'll never sleep on the ones who don't sleep
I won't leave any stone unturned, there's nothing that I won't grief
Fuckin' sick, and how I'm working the mission is to reach the top
But, when I was at the bottom, I listen (What?)
And made it through my evictions and death, I'm my only friend
You think that hatin' on these internet comments is really hitting? Shit
I should probably be dead more than once
Told that I would fall on my dreams, getting crushed
Build my whole career in my room from the dust
And your whole label team couldn't do what I done, uh
And since day one, living the truth
And anyone who ever doubt it, I just throw 'em the deuce
I pull the index down, I represent my town
Better than anyone, so, if you want to hate, fuck you (fuck you)
I run through, been living with the darkness in my thoughts
Thinkin' to get myself up out of the shadows, I need a spark
A rock bottom, I took two and bang them together
The light of fire in my stomach, I keep burning forever
Tell me it was all in my head
Crawling, but I won't lose my grip
On this war that I'm waging, I can't beat the end
The shadows surround me, but I'll never them in
