You know I gotta say something
Check
Here's a tale that must be told
Picture this a 12 year old
Maybe 13 but that's the max
Definitely no older than that
This thing's called rap had him open in fact
It wasn't enough just ownin' the tracks
Learnt every song word for word
Thought of himself as the opening act
No stage no microphone
Just a bathroom mirror maybe a comb
Blink of an eye and the world of his own
Just like that king on the throne
Until one day he simple felt
In need of a way to express himself
Pen and a pad line after line
Just him and his rhymes nobody else
Of course he wasn't the illest in sight
In fact he sucked but still he would write
Little by little the feelin' was right
That eventually he would be killin' the mic
After school freestylin' flows
Countless ciphers talent shows
World revolved around his craft
His passion and his happy codes
Mom and pops had rotten views of
Hiphop and would not approve
They stood firm no matter how hard he tried
They could not be moved
Still he let his fire burn
Hopin' that the tide would turn
Until that day his prime concerned
Was your respect he tried to earn
Maybe that's why at the time
Only one thing was on his mind
Everyday every night mic or no mic
All he wanted to do was just rhyme
But who whoever the heck would listen
Witness a lyrical exhibition
Wherever he went no matter the time
He battled for props and recognition
Parkin' lot at the mall outside of a bathroom stall
Didn't matter who single or a crew
Line 'em up and he would battle 'em all
Eatin' rappers was all he knew
Soon his reputation grew
No matter what he was goin' through
Step up stage and he feel brand new
Still that wasn't enough to fulfil
His thirst and hunger for something more real
Whatever the case continue the chase
Can't change your fate once it is sealed
Meanwhile back home sounds the same
Folks started and now complain
How he doesn't even care
That the family business is goin' down the drain
Truth is he's aimin' for more than just the fame and stardom
Deep down inside he just wants to keep his family from starvin'
So even though they hated it kept him motivated
If you have never seen this struggle
Before how will you recognize when you have made it
Finally graduated parents were agitated
The dream and hope of their son goin' to college has gradually faded
He was determined to shine
Time on the grind tryna get signed
Looked for a break anywhere he could find
A never endin' ladder for him to climb
Knockin' on doors only to meet
So called execs who don't wanna greet
All they expect is soap on their feet
He stays anyways go on a beat
That's when they see he's kinda raw
Never encountered his kind before
Rhyme before not like any of the artist
That they've ever signed before
Whatever the case they wouldn't explain
No matter the label it was the same
Walkin' on in walkin' on out thank you for comin'
We're glad that you came
He didn't give up he just kept strong
Knowin' deep down that it wouldn't be long
He did his turn respect he earned
And eventually he would prove them wrong
Far from an easy dream
On the right track but evening steam
The MC man cause of what he's seen
Until he popped up on a
TV screen
That's when the whole world saw him shine
Then the word quickly spread online
And it actually blew everyone's mind guess who
Ruff Ryders just signed
Yes sir time does fly by
Barely 10 years in the blink of an eye
Years of lows years of highs
In the mist of it all he's still the same guy
Ain't with the
R no more some say he ain't a star no more
He's alive and he's healthy somebody tell me
What should he feel any sorrow for
Lookin' back shows no stress
No remorse and no regrets
In fact what seems like a lifelong journey
Is really just his first view steps steps steps
You know I gotta say something
