Believe Video (MV)

The illest vibe when the real is around
A clear mind be the prize once we figure shit out
I continue to rise , now they diggin the style
And critics tried but they ain't bringing us down
Your very best can be better, that's how you gotta look at yourself
So dedicated you would swear it ain't good for my health
Still I ain't lookin for help , and ain't a book on the shelves...
Could tell the stories that done put me through hell
I say I'm good and I'm well
Even when I just appear to be
And as a youngin what I wanted wasn't clear to me
But don't quit even when it's hard to do
Just make it harder for them to want it more than you
A true homie gon support you through
Lowest of lows, focus on growth
Never mind holding the thrown
Learn to cut em out ya circle if they holding you back
'Cause second guessing never gets you where you supposed to be at
Vivid Lyrics, quick to lift your spirit
You only fear growin old when you live with limits
Listen...
Reminiscing in the very beginning
Thought I was writing hits, still the recognition was missing
Now the reason I admit that I was thinking of quitting
Is 'cause I didn't, I just chose a different ending bitch
The lesson is...
Putting in work ain't that hard when your ethic is that of a perfectionist
Making difficult look effortless
As far goals go, my list only grows longer keep measuring
Embarrassing in comparison
Theirs is much shorter than the span of of their attention is
I'm mentioning the ones used to pressing skip
A couple seconds in, before the track even settle in
Relevance
Why do everybody long for it
What good is the truth if it's not spoken
What good is planning for change, and then waiting, as if...
A spontaneous change of plans couldn't make it happen
Right now
But being scared of taking a chance is gunna...
Kill your growth before you make an advancement
Just to...
Find out it's alright to have doubts
Those same feelings often found in the brain of a champion
We know life ain't a race don't rush, give it time
Find the beauty in the journey, while they gush about the finish line
And you don't need results for validation
The self motivated only battle with patience
'Cause your new ideas, to them... Sound a bit ancient
But if they wise enough to know that, and not say it
Now that's a true sign of greatness, proof that the mind is sacred
Stay on your grind and when it's time you'll make it
Learn to... tell the real, from the fakeness
Jealousy, envy all that snake shit
'Cause they can show love, even when they don't feel it inside
They nothing like my dead homies but they live in disguise
A big difference let it sink in your mind
Some people rather clip ya wings when u beginning to fly
Bet there were some street legends with the rhythm & rhyme
That never had a nickel or dime
So studios won't give em the time
But yo the talent too priceless
To just end up
Another diamond in the rough tryna balance out this life shit
Working minimum wage
Pretend the mop in your hand is a microphone, picture a stage
It's euphoric, though you know that
Deep down you lack the image they crave
But tough luck, they ain't feeling your pain
Or anything you did before to build up a name
The skills that you claim to have, or how you never did it the same
Na
They just rather hear you get with the wave
And rap what's trendy today, long as it's getting you paid
Maybe then you get a chance, but the odds looking slim, to none
Just sell out if you want to be rich, good luck
We've seen greed pull legends to a bottomless pit, they sunk
Feelings I was bottling in, get drunk
Off my words, we ain't faking the funk
Learn to use it as fuel when you ain't making the cut
Keep pushing hard for your dream, and if you lost self esteem
Remember Jordan got cut from the varsity team
