[Intro Hook: Brian Notice]
There was times it was hard and I felt like I was doing too much
But I held it down when it got tough cause I lust for the dreams I can touch
I was scared I admit it
Was in doubt for a minute
Mama proud that I did it
I made it I'm on oh on oh on x2
I'm raising the bar
I swear that's the best part
Watching the money come in
Now this ain't the end
Let the story begin
[Verse 1: Mike Lickver]
It went first year to those applications those OCIs to those in-firms
Then graduation those articles to that bar call see we did work
10 months for that intern
Small fish in that big firm
To the Street I'mma return
Money taller than big bird
And yes sir we made
(oh yea we made/I'ma sleep for 20 minutes then it's time for celebration cause)
Tests took we done pa**ed those
Expectations we smashed those
Big Cohibas like Castro
Can*li suits where my cash go
Stay positive like my cash flow so I'm never in arrears
And I be that only first year with a Senior Partner Beard
Now I'm here put the draft into drafting it's quite clear
That I hustled through via Russel Drew to become the rookie of the year
[Hook: Brian Notice]
There was times it was hard and I felt like I was doing too much
But I held it down when it got tough cause I lust for the dreams I can touch

I'm raising the bar
I swear that's the best part
Watching the money come in
Now this ain't the end
Let the story begin
[Verse 2: Jesse Mighton]
It went case briefs to those memoranda those factums to those mock trials
Now it's partner dinners, corporate boxes and champagne by the stockpile
1L to 3L I stayed spittin' that hot fire
Now I'm on the Street sinking my teeth in like a Rottweiler
And yes sir we did (oh yea we did it)
Now my free time has these limits
I docket all of my minutes
Set precedents when I spit this
You talk about it we live it
You can affidavit your witness
I'm a rising star in this business
Now we Bay Streetin' all day meetings of course
Putting tabs on the cash like it's going to court
But looking back at the past it's the life we chose
And I got these racks on racks on racks cause tonight we close
[Hook: Brian Notice]
There was times it was hard and I felt like I was doing too much

[Verse 3: Mike Lickver]
It went one vid, two vid, now this but I will not drag it out
Now I'm teachin Summers how to Senior Partner swag it out
I'm just tryin' to give my parents something they can brag about
I'm just making music with my homies what you mad about?
My skin tanned and my hair long and my fans who've been so patient
Me and Biko back to work but we still smell like a vacation
Now we sitting at the top because it's all about location
You can tell Precedent that I'm setting them with these deals that I be making
Feel that Miami breeze we speeding we can't coast
So on the track to making partner I go Usain Bolt
And it's like you came close but Nyce went H.A.M. up on this beat
And it's the same old me I just saved up to v3 (Preach)
