Rittz - Born For This lyrics

[Verse 1:] Yeah When the rest of the world go to sleep, I I be getting drunk, probably on some kind of drug Tripping looking at the street light Tryna write a rap, on a laid back beat But its hard, I'm on a speed high The C-N-T my crew, we cool But we grew up in the street life In other words, we gon' sting 'em when they swinging at the bee hive Rewind, ain't nobody reach out Back when I was coming up, now they hit me and get mad if I don't reply Where were you when I was cleaning out the deep fryer? Didn't wanna swing by Hoes saying he's fine, yeah right Saying that I wanna f**, she lying, she trying I can tell by her face that her p**y smell like a sea lion Only D she gonna get is denied Couple grand inside my Levi's T9 put me on, and he always wear red But I swear if somebody disrespect him, I'ma check him He don't gotta give a green light Listening to Big Mike, rap music used to be tight Some of it still is, but a lot of it is street hype Back when I was praying I would make it This ain't what I thought it'd be like, despite - All the fake sh**, I'm really happy to achieve my - Childhood dreams and a ton of sh**'s sweet Every now and then its sour like a key lime And when it is I gotta remind me That I made it to the big time And I know I might not be as big as T.I But guaranteed, if you see me getting behind A microphone, I'ma bring the heat each time [Hook:] Cause I was born for this I'm so lucky to be this fortunate My life, my heart, my soul got poured in this And I'ma keep going until my story ends Until the Lord above me decides to turn my lights out But for right now I ain't trying to put this mic down Stage is mine now [Verse 2:] Told my parents I was gonna make it one day They ain't never look convinced I was just a little kid at a young age They probably thought it was a dumb phase And I quit school, said I'm stupid, told me just wait I regret it and I do, I was thinking I was cool Started f**ing with the drug trade Just knowing I might end up blowing up big I was finally of age, hitting up Atlanta at the club late Doing every open mic, looking like a straight target I was unsafe, in the middle of the hood Only white boy on stage, had to let my nuts hang Fifteen years later, all the work paid off Kids coming tryna run game Only difference is, I was a lyricist Before the internet opened up the floodgates When white boys had to have sk**s If you didn't, then you getting booed, getting jumped What you just say? Had to live what you rapped back then Nowadays you can say you 'bout gunplay When you shot a target at a gun range You can say you got a plug, I ain't following for the pump fake Saying Usher's your cousin, your uncle is Just Blaze As far as bullsh** go, nothing much's changed I'm getting better every year All I see is competition to me that I wanna try to upstage And there's still a lot of people that ain't never listened to me in their life I think it's time to get an update Rappers that I gave my demo tape to in the past Tryna come and get my number, we should touch base They could be me one day, but I'm hotter than a sun ray I'm blazed [Hook:] Cause I was born for this I'm so lucky to be this fortunate My life, my heart, my soul got poured in this And I'ma keep going until my story ends Until the Lord above me decides to turn my lights out But for right now I ain't trying to put this mic down Stage is mine now
