  • [Verse 1: Joyner Lucas]
  • Tell me what do you see when you look in my eyes? (Yeah)
  • Got a lot on my mind
  • Hopin' I never be goin' out of my mind
  • Been tryna control when I grow out of my prime
  • I thought I was ready, it really wasn't my time, I know
  • I live in my head
  • I said I'd be rich and I did what I did
  • But I don't do this shit for me, I do this shit for my kids
  • I teach 'em how to go and get it when they ready to leave
  • I'm tired of livin' up in hell when I know heaven is free
  • And nothin' really more important than protectin' the peace
  • I wanna teach 'em how to grow up and be better than me
  • When I was chasin' all the paper, with no second to breathe
  • And I tell myself to never give up and accept no defeat
  • My premonitions already written in definitely
  • But I never listen, I know my vision and never could see
  • And truthfully, I wasn't even supposed to make it this far (Ayy)
  • I take it this far
  • I know that God got me, I'm thankin' him for (Yeah)
  • Soon as I get it, then I'll be payin' him for it
  • You know you made it when all the haters support (Haters support)
  • The haters support (Yeah)
  • Joyner been workin' and I ain't takin' no shorts
  • When they tell me be humble, then I'ma take in too far

  • [Chorus: Joyner Lucas]
  • Shit, I used to feel like Will, now I'm feelin' like uh
  • Made mistakes, can't get it right, yeah
  • Niggas can't stand me, I'm livin' like ooh
  • Tryna win the Grammy like killin' my, uh
  • I'm a underdog like Killer Mike, yeah
  • Took a lot of Ls tryna win the fight, ooh
  • Got back up, I'm still alright, yeah
  • I be alright, I'm still alright, yeah

  • [Verse 2: Joyner Lucas]
  • And I don't really care 'bout nothin' except for keepin' my legacy
  • Hopin' I be livin' long enough to sleep with the enemy
  • Had to take a shot for every nigga tryna get rid of me
  • I should take a look inside of my soul and see what they did to me
  • I got a fire inside me and it's sleepin' within me
  • When I look inside the mirror, all I see is the little me
  • Wishin' I could break out but I hope the evil no hinder me
  • If I overcome it, then I be achievin' the victory, yeah

  • [Verse 3: Logic]
  • What you really want? What it really get?
  • 'Cause I remember livin' my life with a [milly?] face
  • So many gears, I thought I had a million ideas
  • So I had a fire peace and release nonsense
  • I do it for the art, not the content
  • All I really wanted was the acceptance
  • Now as a man I can vent this
  • **** that endless
  • Do what you love in this life, don't let hate in your life
  • Know they work for a job 'til you eighty
  • And look back like, "Damn, I really done gave 'em my life"
  • If I save just one life with this verse, then it's worth it
  • If this is your future, you need to reverse it
  • Ain't nobody perfect
  • Man, **** all that cake, it ain't worth it
  • Just take what you buried deep down in the dirt and I know that you heard it
  • The voice from within, not above
  • So just do what you love
  • Ain't no way I could keep it up feelin' this feelin'
  • It's creepin' up, tellin' me I will not be enough
  • No, wasn't bein' me enough
  • I think I see enough of what I don't want in my life
  • Give a damn if it's right, it's the reason I write
  • Need a reason to fight 'cause I need it in sight
  • With these monsters in sight, it get darker than what I would like
  • But I know, I know

  • [Verse 4: Twista]
  • Ain't nobody you could never know my struggle
  • As a child, goin' through shit way harder to blow than out a bubble
  • And I know lot of trouble before I got to the lyrical ability
  • The water that was flowin' out a funnel
  • Had to channel the aggression and depression
  • For only a moment when I had to realize rappin' ain't it
  • When there wasn't no more money from a record deal
  • I couldn't get another one, so I was about to quit
  • Had to get a job
  • Didn't wanna be a slob, even though I would rather be spittin' bars
  • Then one day, somebody saw me at work and said, "Twista, why are you in here washin' cars?"
  • That hurt my heart
  • That shit tore me apart
  • So I prayed up to God
  • That if I ever got another chance at music, I won't take it granted
  • I'ma dunk if I get the lot
  • Rented an AK from Do Or Die
  • He said, "Come to the studio, I'll put you on a song"
  • Start my new gig in the mornin', but I'ma come after
  • This is my chance to get back on
  • Thankful that I was livin' at my brother's house, but it weren't my own
  • So I'ma finna go in
  • I walked in the lab and the beat was by Crackster
  • Title of the song was "Po Pimp"
  • I said, "Ooh, snap"
  • I told 'em I'm about to jack
  • Spittin' funky like I'm a MAC
  • I'ma come off so hard on this track
  • It's gon' change my condition and change the way people rap
  • Might be broke as shit and collectin' no dough from tips
  • But be spittin' more game than a mouth full of poker chips
  • And I was glad that the world recognize how dope this is
  • And the prayer was effective
  • If you stressed and depressed, let this come and soak in your brain
  • First time that I ever played "Po Pimp" for somebody, I was on the way to work on the train
  • And I didn't quit it 'til the record was droppin'
  • But when I did it, I knew it was right
  • 'Cause through my prayers and my faith and my words, it get darker than what I would like but I know I'm alright
