Sam Okauru - Start It Off Right Lyrics

I just want to rap on this beat
Clear my mind a bit
Yea
Uh huh

Any beat I'm on the chosen one
Anytime I'm on the beat they know it's one and done
All she do is check her phone I know she see what's up
She acting like my dm's to her nonexistent huh?
Ha
Everyday I have to roll the dice
A wise man once told me money takes a toll on life
And family and everything we find so demandin
If that's the price I have to pay I hope they understand me
Yea
All my dawgz be workin 9-5 I'mma work until they life feel like a 5-9
I got a lot of loose ends I have to get in line
I know the best started low and I can't stay behind
I can't be that old man whose sitting at the Y
Tellin all these young kids how his life declined
How he didn't make the league
How he got in crime
How the coaches in his past the reason he ain't shine
If ball ain't making me a m I take a different flight
And I don't care what all these people think about my life
I'm not trying to be the one who hurts my momma life
If she got a bill I should be the one who writes
Yea
I got to kill em this my first debut
You have to work if you gon strive in scary zoo
Gabe and I be talkin millions everyday at school
All these convos wit my dog it just be building clues
I got a lot of industries I got to tap into
And the scary thing with me is all that I can do
All this overdue
But imma get em through
This just the First EP the start of something new
I lost a lot of close friends in the past year
I don't look to make amends with my past peers
At Jefe Island we don't think about the past here
I got more concerns than things that happen last year
I want the riches like it's livin in my glass here
Not providin for my family is my only fear
Any hate that's coming through is out the other ear
I'm only chasin for the throne they know my mission clear
Yea
Let me not get ahead of myself
First Step EP
Jefe Island Way
Yea
