I don't need someone to tell me that I'm a great rapper in order for me to believe it
I don't need a beat to freestyle, honestly I don't need this
I'm doing my thing, I don't care what people say
I'm only nineteen, I'm young and I got a long way to go
And I know that the journey will be full of ups and downs
And some people won't stick around, and that's okay
I wanna change the world, but it won't happen in one day
I gotta push ahead, keep my head on straight
Slow and steady wins the race
And I'm gonna have to face
Everyone who talked down on me, and didn't want me to succeed
I got the odds stacked against me
I got people trying to change me
But only God can judge me, I don't care if people love me
I'm gonna become who I'm supposed to be
Screw everyone who loathes me
I guess I should take your jealously as flattery
I'm from St. Louis, I'm proud of that
Best city in the world, and that's a fact
Hope I can make my city proud
Hope everyone hears my message loud
Hope I can make it out of this small town and can travel the world
But if not that's okay, everybody's got their own fate
I'll find out one day
I believe in myself, and that's what counts
I don't care about professional
I just wanna lounge on my sectional
And watch Netflix, just be a chill chick
But I'm grinding so I can make it
I'm so close I can taste it
I need a ma**age, someone arrange it
I need some dinner, someone please place it
Cause these next few days I'm going in so hard it should be a sin
But I gotta do what I gotta do to get through
Gotta do what I gotta do to prove to you
That I can do it, that I can do it
