[Intro]
Yeah
(Turn it up)
[Verse 1]
I'm not tryin' to be no legend, I'm not a rapper
Just good with words, just want my flowers, the actual [?]
They call my nerves, I put in hour after hours
Before the deal, back when it was just me, Ry, Jimmy and Will
At the dojo, eighty-nineteen, we tip the scale
I've been livin' in my truth since 2012
I've been spittin' in the booth since I was milly mill'
Yellin', "free my ni**a Press", they like, "Lute been chilly chill"
It was C-I double A, cold man's in my gear
I was backstage like I'm just a cashier
If I play my cards right, maybe this my last year
Even though it took five, hail a ni**a right hеre, yeah
I don't take nothin' for grantеd
You reap what you sow and you playin'
Some days I just don't have the answer, but my feet, they solid
They plan it 'cause this sh*t outstanding
[Chorus]
You can't tell me how to feel, this sh*t my life
I can't tell you this ain't happen overnight
When you ain't got sh*t to lose, hmm, got to roll the dice
I ain't got nothin' to prove, hmm, this ain't no overnight
You can't tell me how to feel, this sh*t my life
I can't tell you this ain't happen overnight
When you ain't got sh*t to lose, hmm, got to roll the dice
I ain't got nothin' to prove, hmm, this ain't no overnight
[Verse 2]
I used to be so naive in the beginning
The first that I got, the more I rely, sh*t different, the pockets you watch
You should be payin' on commission
This was my call and my intuition
Had to let go of the time and the whole for wishin'
Watch my life unfold, like what a feelin'
Some days I be on apologetic
Some days I understand you won't get it
Never take it wrong when I'm dissin'
I've been workin' on myself for a minute
Hate when people say they want a part of me
But can't accept the meet that I give 'em
My daughter gettin' older, so I'm livin'
If I could, I wouldn't do it any different
Money be the goal, not the mission
I hope that when you get older
You understand all the sh*t that I have sacrificed
Despite how they feel, I did all I could do
Just for you so that you have a better life
[Chorus]
You can't tell me how to feel, this sh*t my life
I can't tell you this ain't happen overnight
When you ain't got sh*t to lose, hmm, got to roll the dice
I ain't got nothin' to prove, hmm, this ain't no overnight
You can't tell me how to feel, this sh*t my life
I can't tell you this ain't happen overnight
When you ain't got sh*t to lose, hmm, got to roll the dice
I ain't got nothin' to prove, hmm, this ain't no overnight
