lined up for a student loan[00:27.57]People used to degrade me but I upgraded and graduated[00:29.96]Proved them wrong[00:31.44]When I was younger, I didn't know[00:32.74]Puffin' a little drough[00:33.75]Would make my hustle more difficult[00:35.82]Got minor wages but not stuck with the minimum[00:38.35]Minor pay leads to major hassle[00:40.00]I grappled[00:40.66]But the fact I didn't give up is a feat that they can't fathom[00:43.65]I respect haters, they gave me persistence[00:45.21]Can't stand the rest pain of a missed chance[00:47.38]So, I rather take chances[00:48.48]With the stakes high like a Russian roulette player going the distance[00:51.60]How do you live in a world that's broken[00:53.50]Sometimes it's best to leave the words unspoken[00:55.73]How do you breathe,

I'm chosen[01:07.20]Switched off the news, too much stressing from the terror[01:09.06]Social media put pressure on a fella[01:10.70]To vent I had hell of a get togethers[01:12.53]With chicks, asses soft as feathers[01:13.82]Couldn't figure out a way to live happily together[01:15.76]Now I stack up some cheddar[01:16.92]I get less for my effort[01:18.01]That's the fact of the matter[01:19.20]I'm apt to do better[01:20.12]And bring the ruckus[01:21.58]If you wanna live life right you gotta take some large risks[01:23.96]It ain't fair like gettin' hit by large bricks[01:25.87]They smile when you're down and hit record like sick reporters[01:28.77]Misinforming[01:30.04]My view of success is distorted[01:31.92]Had regret inside my heart and every single organ[01:34.05]With the pressure buildin'[01:35.24]Grindin' but the return seems to be never yielding[01:38.50]That's a feeling[01:39.36]I know too well[01:40.38]But when you're all in it[01:41.65]No effort's in vain when you put your heart in it[01:43.76]No effort's in vain when you put your heart in it[01:57.13]Lots of detours on life's map, looking for the effortless ways[01:59.95]Look at what pressure can make[02:01.15]I've been through pain and agony and was never the same[02:03.89]A lot of sorrow and tears[02:04.93]Almost checked out, with no coroner here[02:06.95]Saw the light at the end of the corridor beam[02:09.12]With a peak at heaven in my dreams[02:10.60]Hope half of what I've seen[02:11.65]Lives up to the real deal[02:12.75]But it actually doesn't feel real[02:14.88]Every day's a gift and a curse[02:16.31]No one knows when it's time to chill in a hearse[02:18.44]Let down six feet deep in the dirt[02:20.63]I appreciate more[02:21.58]Of what I'm given and see what's in store[02:23.14]See the better days this life has to offer[02:24.98]Showin' love, ignorin' the spite from the mockers[02:30.64]How do you live in a world that's broken[02:32.74]Sometimes it's best to leave the words unspoken[02:34.81]How do you breathe, when it feels like chokin'[02:36.82]Received life's gifts I can't leave unopened[02:38.96]So, I double shift until I feel like dozin'[02:41.76]They pay me no mind but I feel I'm chosen[02:44.24]I feel I'm chosen[02:47.36]When things ain't goin well, you're overwhelmed then take a break from it all[02:52.29]Recover your stance when you fall[02:55.71]I figured out the man I wanna be[02:57.25]Rien ne va plus, bets on my friends, to form a team[02:59.69]With the odds against us about as bad as it's ever gon' be[03:02.38]I might never be filthy with riches[03:04.00]But my rap layers are flows with precision[03:06.10]Used to have cassette players runnin' to listen[03:08.26]CD decks and a bulge from a discman[03:10.32]Used to watch Kobe and Shaq play and go against the Pistons[03:12.96]Been called wack, hate's an assistance[03:15.00]Cause they brought anger and motivation for decades into existence[03:18.26]Lemme remind you[03:19.15]I can't stand the rest pain of a missed chance[03:21.26]So, I rather take chances[03:22.41]With the stakes high like a Russian roulette player going the distance[03:29.09]How do you live in a world that's broken[03:31.14]Sometimes it's best to leave the words unspoken[03:33.34]How do you breathe, when it feels like chokin'[03:35.25]Received lifes's gifts I can't leave unopened[03:37.28]So, I double shift until I feel like dozin'[03:40.08]They pay me no mind but I feel I'm chosen[03:42.84]I feel I'm chosen[03:44.33]Grindin'[03:45.71]Grindin'[03:46.84]But the return seems to be never yielding[03:49.96]It's fine to reminisce[03:50.90]But I can't get stuck tryin to relive it[03:52.63]My styles are limitless[03:53.56]I'm a diamond in this bitch[03:54.52]When things ain't going well[03:55.70]The pressure building[03:58.38]Grindin'[04:02.44]When things ain't goin well, you're overwhelmed then take a break from it all[04:07.57]Recover your stance when you fall[04:11.24]When you're all in it[04:12.68]No effort's in vain when you put your heart in it[04:14.93]No effort's in vain when you put your heart in it
