Step into my world just for a minute
Moments pass us by every minute
Before you know it, it's all finished
Racing hard just tryna get it
No hand outs, hands bleed and sweat when you tryna be the best in New York City
Chantay's house, New York City
Waiting for a train still snowin in Brooklyn
Stepping off the train in Manhattan walking
Red converses on my feet supported me
I can feel the doubt when some people unsure of me
If I held the world I would flick you off it
The city never dead I see mice and rats
Niggas playing instruments and only making scraps
It smells like piss but the grittiness is magic
I still got some tricks if you wanna be bedazzled
Its happening
Imagined it
Its real As Kids we said we'd win
Its hard enough but its all we want
It raining hard and its cold as f*ck
Im thirty now and I'm growing up
My beard got grays its growing out
Im still the same, just older now
My Wisdom is unfolding now
I can show you howwwwwww
I can show you how
Doesn't it amaze you when people defy
Resist what was and pave new lines
Traced outside that same old age old all sound the same road no new lane flow
Wrote so much down it rained
My brainstorm floods the game
You playing but the level just changed
The boss just came nigga Moss not lame
I do me and only me to be me
Nothing you can say to make me doubt
I don't think you know what I'm about
My story doesn't have to take the route
That other niggas took
My book is on a whole nother shelf, my shelf is on a whole different case
You think you bouta beat it but you can't
You think you bouta see us but you can't
I be it cuz I see it so today
Its happening
Imagined it
Its real As Kids we said we'd win
Its hard enough but its all we want
It raining hard and its cold as f*ck
Im thirty now and I'm growing up
My beard got grays its growing out
Im still the same, just older now
My Wisdom is unfolding now
I can show you howwwwwww
I can show you how
