Yeah, uh, yeah, it's the holy renaissance
Yeah, check it, look, yeah
This young natural, bring it back like catapults
Jazzy beats, saxophones, I been in my bag of bones
Killing it, lyrically limitless
On my 47, shoutout Steez, Capital
Rest in peace to greats before me, know I'm gonna make it surely
All about the legacy you leave, I gotta play the course
Coming from the house on Main Street
Didn't have a fortune, but I had a chance and couldn't ask for more
Shoutout to everybody I had support me
Talking trap, I stay napping, boring, talking about stacks
Getting enormous, but they lack performance
And that's the way the cookie cracks
If we talking real rapping, I stay madly scorching
Realest part is that my girl adores this, a true craftsman
Know I took a tougher road, but then I made it happen
Used to be the joke of the class, I stay laughing
In fact, I been cracking up at haters, who mad
It's just the fashion, man, I wear it, the industry beware it
You have to deal with Shanklin, nobody believed in Derek
You give me the beat, I tear it, ensnare it
Just like I'm trapping a bunny, hare in
You know that I'm coming, you hear the snare hit
Yeah, woah, you hear the bass drum
I've been here to say some, since day one
Fakes love to pose, greats on the throne
I'ma take them, so get used to hearing my name, the kid Shanklin
Fighting for an elevated cause
Never take a loss, cause I'm learning, any cost
Not up in the college, still a scholar for the haul
That's the longest haul, now I'm really onto y'all gimmicks, boy, finished it
Using pomade, but stay slicker with
Flows like I'm driving in the icy snow, winter drift
Cold blizzard, this
Joint hitting like some fights in the prison
Me and my team can spark a light where you didn't
Pull a crowd where you couldn't
Many act surprised when they found why I took this
Rhymes I been cooking, you gotta understand
This is all part of the plan
'Cause Shanklin meant for greatness with the mic up in my hand
I said the S is for the stamina
H is for the heavily damaging
Anybody, so you better come correct
A is for the amateur rappers I represent
N is cause you know I got next up on the stage
And never forget it because I'm killing the game
Like I'm holding a K, but it's the words on display
You know I never took an L, just flip the order for the name
And even if you sitting next to me, you know we ain't the same
That's the N (end)
