[Verse 1: Big Sean]
I know I'mma get it, I just don't know how
Heart up on the stage, body in the crowd
Parents always tried keep me home
But I can't get paid from the crib, so I'll be gone till we on
Whats up
Finally Famous, I had it on my jacket way back in high school
Know I wanted to be in them night clubs and not all off in that night school
So me and my n***as real life'd it
Every week we did them cyphers
At the radio
Had a crazy flow,
Man, the city ain't heard sh** like this
I woke up early on a Saturday
Said I'mma cash my check and hit some a** today
Hit the bank, my n***a called me like: "Go rap for Ye
sponsored links
He at the station, rap that sh** that you rap everyday"
Man, that sh** sounds stupid then I hang up on his a**
Then called him back like "f**, let's do it"
I didn't even cash my check, man can't believe my a** pursuit it
I didn't even have no gas but somehow God just lead me to it
Like, "Let's do it"
[Interlude: Kanye West and DJ Mo Beatz]
When I heard the songs he was doing
Man, I knew he had to be on G.O.O.D Music
(BIG! SEAN!) [x5]
[Verse 2: Big Sean]
Just to think, last night I was in Venice
hugging b**hes, thanking God Almighty, condoms were invented
Cause I had a yellow bone that could've come from out the Simpsons
Man, Who claim she never did it (Yeah right)
But under these conditions
She was with it
Then I hopped up on that red eye when I finished
I been gon for five hours, f**, my head still spinning
f**ed the hotel up, sh** she probably still in it
Getting rest that I be missing
but f** it I'm on a mission
Flight delayed like 30 minutes, now that's the sh** that I hate
Now it's eight thirty, I'm officially late
For that eight o'clock spot
I know the Program Director hot
but I spit a freestyle there so cold that everybody in that b**h forgot
Now I'm running late for sound check and I heard the line's already to the lot
Walking out the station and that's around the time that I got stopped
By this shorty trying to rhyme
Manager said "we ain't got time"
But time to time, you gotta make time
when it's time for karma to come back around
I say "Aye dawg, What you got?"...
"Aw dawg, Big Sean, thanks a lot
Um, alright: It's that young renegade
Man, they been afraid
Tryin' to follow me, get in a maze
Leave you minute maid
Um, I'm like a young black Eminem
It's a riddle and
I'm repping that Michigan
Tryin' to stack my dividends
Get my mom a new crib and them
And a bunch of synonyms
about how he was living and
I even let him finish it
I mean I can't lie he was alright
But at his age, sh** so was I
so I give him my email on a fly
And if his song's good, I reply Uhh
[Interlude: Trick Trick and Shorty]
[Trick Trick:] Hello

[Shorty:] Man just like how he spit a hundred bars, I spit like two hundred bars.
[Outro 1: Big Sean]
Tell me what you know about dreams
What you know about having faith in something you can't see
Tell me how much do you believe
What you know about feeling something that you can't even touch
What you know bout smelling something that you can't even breathe
But when the world drives you out and your gas tank is on E
All the faith that you had just ain't all the faith that you need
All the faith that I have just ain't all the faith that I need
I'm sorry.
[Outro 2: Mama Myra]
I know you're not my child talking like that.
Focus on shifting that negative energy into something positive.
And the easiest way to do that, is to be grateful for all the things that you do have,
For your health, for your family, your friends, all the people that care about you.
You've got food to eat, you've got a place to stay.
Ugh you know, let's feel good, let's get happy, boi! haha
