verse 1:

I been in this game for years

and made me an artist

blood sweatin' tears came to fault for this

real live gangstas wanna be rappers

real live singers wanna be actors

Fundisha the next chapter

Lessons inspired by the lord and my pastor

and ya'll ain't even ready for that

beats bangin in ya cadillac

Verse 2:

now that I'm here, imma sing my song

sing along to the track where my real people at

where the truth I can't seem to find it anywhere
