[Hook x2] Whoa, whoa, whoa What do you take us for? [Verse] It all begins when I click the pen, start feeling like a kid again but then again I'm only 18 and better than half these rappers saying that they're veterans Rap seems to be my medicine making me feel more clever than I've ever been It's the poetry that gets me up in the morning and ironically it's made something out of me I'm just trying to lose myself in a beat some say I'm lost but in reality I'm more found than I've ever been sitting back watching all of this happening These fake emcees hitting mainstream while people like us still see it as a dream It's crazy, it seems hard to believe, that at one time you actually needed sk** to succeed Now a days it doesn't take a lot to rap, as a matter of fact Just mumble a few words on a track or start talking like you're having an asthma attack It's not about the money, no not about the fame, not about how girls you can get to steal your last name Not about making dollars, it's about making change Change for the ones who don't want to stay the same It's such a shame to see what the media portrays, it's almost like they are the breeders of hate Faming the fake and shunning the great but i'm starting to feel like at this rate This will be a feeling I won't be able to shake, I can feel it with every breath i take Realizing everything that i'm putting on stake, is this all worth a dream I chase when I 'm awake [Hook x2] Whoa, whoa, whoa What do you take us for? [Verse] So what do you take us for, just a couple of dreamers and nothing more I'm just a hot head trying to settle a score, I'm not just something you can just ignore I just want to drop the best bars i can lay, I don't care about the pay But aye, what can i say, even when i'm 80, i'll still be listening to N.W.A I'm trying to get prepared for this, I don't want to be like those college kids All I want is to do nothing less, than craft together perfectness So consider this my introduction, I need this music to properly function Losing breathe like a lung puncture, making the competition loose structure It's hard for me to take advice when I feel like Gretzky on the ice I'm in my element, it's makes me feel alive, I believe this is my time to shine I still got a lot to learn, so many thing I need to endure I have a lot to prove before I take the floor, I'm living my dream, what else could I ask for Until then I'll be that kid with the Detroit cap Who's always has his headphones on listening to rap Probably to Em, Kendrick, Cole, Nas or Pac And this is only the beginning and I ain't ever looking back
