[Verse 1]
Today I'm looking at life as an opportunity
Someday hoping that I'll win with my ingenuity
My community, ruthlessly don't believe in me?
Well that's a b**h but I'ma spitting freely see
An engineer, rap severe, appear as a musician
Facing fears, drinking beer, overhear opinions
Conditions are low, so I hustle some more
Musician with notes, at my dreams door saying, let me in to score
I thought about how crazy life really is, I'm a wiz but reminisce some old sh**, that I did
I'ma keep on grinding till I make a f**ing difference, I'ma keep on shining, Spacey couldn't ever worsen
[Hook] X2
Listen up, listen up, never give up
Listen up, listen up, never give up
You just gotta look up, you just gotta look up
[Verse 2]
I gotta achieve my prophecy, so I freaking stunt
I'm showing y'all struggle, while all the others front
I've seen prodigy's get laughed at like they're a comedy, honestly just master your craft, astonishingly
Chilling in the atelier to get wealthier, heavier my thoughts get, when I'm sleepier
Now you know my life ain't perfect like reality show Got more time to learn and grow, while wannabes keep on stealing flows
They wannabe in your shoes, cause they're too scared of what you choose
The moments yours just be the right person in you No delude, include your family they provided you a roof, when I look in the sky I see my family roots
When I recite some rhymes inside of a soundproof booth, fam I hope you know, I'll always be thinking of you
[Hook] X2
Listen up, listen up, never give up
Listen up, listen up, never give up
You just gotta look up, you just gotta look up
