[Verse] Came out my mothers womb, they told me I was so different Learned at a young age, my life had no certain limit I could go anywhere really, just up to critical thinking Looking outside of my mind, I see myself trapped in the future 15 years later, stuck in the college cla** Visions of being great, but reality got me slippin' Professor said go home, you not even focused here Like what was I thinking about, me being up on a stage Speaking these powerful words, then it all came to my senses If I can do a whole project what the hel-, then it's over F-f** being stuck in this cla**, money was runnin' out I hopped on that metro bus, I'm feelin' like exodus Got the music for days, I could just blow up in weeks I mean they say I'm the one, so why the f** am I broke? Like why the hell am I out here, a-always chasing a feeling
Sleeping on homies couches, n-not a wonderful feeling They know that I got the potential just to leave with the city My ego k**in' is iffy, might self employ just to get it Of all the people around me I saw I was destined for greatness Instead of going to cla**es, I was writing on buses I was illest with rhymes, staring at just Staples Center Knowing my present centered feeling define every winner To being the one that they know, to prolly saving the city They say Tre keep going, I'm tryna show 'em my envy And all I needed was minutes, my hours turned into greatness Months had turned into minutes, in the fact of gettin' this I mean I'm rapping like this, a couple years could just pa** I guarantee they'll remember, I changed the city forever (I changed the city forever)
