Compete Your Ass Off |
| Screaming in the mirror compete your ass off, no future I rip my mask off |
| Feeling fake like a mascot, you two faced, Harvey Dent, I rip my face half off |
| Dropped 13 albums in 12 months I had to blast off, no excuses I passed y’all |
| I fail so much I just laugh it off, you paying dues asking for half off |
| I wrote a book, a podcast, a song a day, book shows, and we still tour |
| And I still eat shit every day, create, and maneuver through manure |
| And my grandparents did more than that, working everyday got a house with that |
| My mom went from section 8 to being a nurse, dad never went to college he just |
| put in work |
| No competition without cooperation cause we live in a world full of hatred |
| If you at the top with no community then who you saving? |
| What type of path you |
| paving? |
| Racism exists, patriarchy is real, Kap is right, police got the steel |
| Ableism exists, class is real, if you ain’t helping out what’s the deal? |
| Everyone’s grind is different, if you silent to that then you upholding the |
| system |
| Too many problems to list them, too many in cages let’s abolish the prisons |
| Too many screaming hustle making money their religion, they’re dying over an izm |
| I’m visualizing my vision, I’m trying to hustle for knowledge, understanding, |
| and wisdom |
| Eric and Erica Garner, Tamir, Mike Brown, their legacy’s living |
| Pops cried when Trayvon died, now cancer took him, I miss him |
| Ready to die I’m copping my coffin, no stopping till we popping |
| I dare you to top this, told awareness we dropping |
| Tell mama like Joplin, drama out the picture I’m cropping |
| Spit so often, I’m swimming I hop in I’m in the studio mopping |
| They say work hard if you want to make it how far you gonna take it? |
| Find you limit and break it |
| No sleep always awake and, take determination mix it with patience |
| That’s my equation |
| Let’s take it back to 08 in the basement, in the studio pacing, my chest racing |
| This game will find you heart and make it vacant, I’m in my feelings let me |
| Drake it |
| They’ll stab you in the back like Jason then ask you to smile for the camera |
| and fake it |
| I tell everyone I love them just in case and as I move through time and space |
| and |
| Never wasted, my demons I faced them, the charts, for impact I’m bracing |
| The grim reaper followed me home, I saw me as he took his mask off |
| He said if you wanna live, compete your ass off |
