Now that it is starting snow and you're lost in your own
Sense of pride, left behind in the carca** of hope
You've become overconfident, done with your common sense
The problem is you are not who you were
You're so sure that your a** is gonna make it
Opportunities come up and you're the last one to take them
You're so sure that you're gonna be successful
You're a lazy freeloader who are scared of feeling stressful
You never work and you're expecting results
You're wanting first but you just sit there and mope
Riding shotgun asking for help to cross the finish line
Somebody drive the car! I've lost a minute's time
Hit rewind back to when you were a preteen
Making CD's, hip hop on repeat
And you would write your lyrics until your fingers strained
Only rhymes in your head, you would forget your name
Do you remember? Do you f**ing remember?
You would tell yourself, "Remember that nothing's forever
I may be down now, but soon my time'll come"
You're taking this for granted, and when your time is done...
sh**, you won't believe you wasted it
What happened? I thought you said that you were made for this
You've been through tears, bullsh**, and rage for this
You've been through bruises, blood, threats, and pain for this
You made one good song and now you think you're pro
Hate to break it to you, that was one of the stepping stones
Kid, it took you four years to get known
Locally, you got a long way to go
So get your head back to normal size, set back and sort your life
Out, instead of slacking like Rigby and Mordecai
It's December, you only got a month left
You're not working from sunrise to sunset
You must rest these fibs, want success to get?
Stop talking about all of the f**s less you give
No one cares, just do what you do best
And stop asking for some pity with this boo-hoo mess
It's pathetic, you're giving me a headache
Instead of asking for medic, should be out setting records like Reddick
First PC, then Wake County and NC
USA, Planet Earth, the f**ing Milky Way Galaxy
And I know you don't believe in me
And I know it's easier to quit
And I know you don't believe in you
It's been a while that we have been in this
But you cannot break this promise
