[Chorus: Bling Face]
Cause this is What It's Like to get in the rap game
(This is What It's Like)
This is What It's Like when you start out rappin
(This is What It's Like)
This is What It's Like to get in the rap game
(This is What It's Like)
This is What It's Like when you start out rappin
(This is What It's Like)
[Verse 1: Biggins]
It's a cold world that we livin in
Minds like a can of garbage, lift the lid, and fill it in
Gettin harder to be me, to be free, don't you see?
Let's untie the knots of bondage, mental slavery
They'll throw you in a pit of lions, keep on lyin
Tell you you're not working hard enough, come on and keep tryin
And I guess to some extent, yeah, they're right
You're a survivor
This is more than just survivin, keep on strivin
To be a better you than yesterday
You're up to bat, step up to the plate
And let me tell ya, cause you need to know
Life's about the struggle but also the ascension
Don't just stick to playin the position you were given
And when they talk don't let them forget to mention
How they got to where they are and when they needed the help
Did they simply get a handout or did they have to yell?
(Talking)
So just remember this, choose the ones you look up to wisely
Don't place your idols too high up on the pedestal
Cause if they fall, you might just fall too
And if they define you, getting back up might not be so easy
[Chorus: Bling Face]
Cause this is What It's Like to get in the rap game
(This is What It's Like)
This is What It's Like when you start out rappin
(This is What It's Like)
This is What It's Like to get in the rap game
(This is What It's Like)
This is What It's Like when you start out rappin
(This is What It's Like)
[Verse 2: Bling Face]
I put the cake in the oven
Forgot to hit "Start Bake" for 2 dozen
Months before I noticed
I punched in that bu*ton
Watch as I finally become a real poet
Even though it's heating up slowly
I feel so close and cozy where I am
But it's baloney that it's not rising
Maybe it's the timing
And I'm not trying to be whiny
I'll just keep writing, rhyming
Driving, and striving til I'm shining
The cake heating up
Was a metaphor for my sk** speeding up
Sneakin up behind everyone
Sweepin em' up
Never saw it coming
Cause it was covered in a cupboard
Just sneaking it out with a side of beets now;
Takes a lot to sit-up, keep your chin-up
Not hiccup and give up
When you don't get many listena's
While haters are saying your sh** s**s
Still got a lot to fix-up
But just keep fighting
Hope that one day you'll see lightening
Of your success striking before your eyes
Adore your supplies
Absorb who*es that rise
Mature metaphors and rhymes
Detour pure tries
Reform your lies
Improvise a disguise
To endure more eyes
(Talking)
So just remember this
There's like 7 billion people in this world
You do have a chance of a lot of people liking your music
And not everybody's gonna like it
But f** the haters, rap your heart out!
[Chorus: Bling Face]
Cause this is What It's Like to get in the rap game
(This is What It's Like)
This is What It's Like when you start out rappin
(This is What It's Like)
This is What It's Like to get in the rap game
(This is What It's Like)
This is What It's Like when you start out rappin
(This is What It's Like)
[Outro: Bling Face]
Yo Biggins! I think we k**ed that sh**
Haha
