Intro:

Uhhh uh

It’s just me man

From the shadows

Live from the underground

It’s been a long fuckin road

But the grind don’t stop

Uh

V.1:
Long nights awake, thinking bout what awaits/
Livin life on the edge, knowin my life's at stake/
But that the price of the game, and I sacrifice it all/
Writing bars of pain, with my back against the wall/
And I'ma get it now, makin sure my daddy proud/
God rest his soul, been missin him for a while/
Been goin thru it rough, wishing heaven was a mile/
Wishin he was alive, to teach me and show me
how/
But that's the way it is, and man I learned to accept it/
Thru the struggles in the streets, I earn status respected/
See I came along way, and spit these raps to reflect it/
Puttin my passion to the beat, and let it slap in the Lexus/
See I'm back wit a vengeance, pissed off and angry/
Fire in my soul and motherfuckas can't tame me/
Can't break me, my will too strong to quit/
AR. West, the first to bomb in this bitch/

HOOK:2x
That's right motherfuckas throw it up right now/
Shout out to crowd, west coast in the house/
They talk about the top, welll Ima make it no doubt/
Spittin that ill shit, live from the Underground/

V.2:
And now it's my time and ima show em what I came for/
To represent my people, and to give em what they paid for/
Real hip hop, I'm talkin music for the soul/
That's how I fell in love when I was 7 years old/
And ever since then, I been fightin with my pen/
Addicted to these streets that's why I live my life in sin/
Years in shadows, over looked and underrated/
But I never gave up, (yea) that's how I fuckin made it/
Writing in lab, expelling demons from my past/
Plotting on my come up, scheming to get the cash/
Speeding livin fast, believing that I can last/
And tho they always speaking trash, they ain't defeating the facts/
I'ma motherfuckin beast, and on these beats I blast/
AR15, spittin heat on wax/
Aiming for the throne, wit My city on my back/
Redemption and mi familia, that's the reason I rap/

HOOK:2x
That's right motherfuckas throw it up right now/
Shout out to crowd, west coast in the house/
They talk about the top, welll Ima make it no doubt/
Spittin that ill shit, live from the Underground/

V.3:
I think about my future and I know it's up to me/
No more waiting or procrastinating this my fuckin dream/
And ain't no matter if I die, ima make you fuckin believe/
Recording sippin Hennessy while I'm puffin weed/
Painting pictures for the hopeless, get em back up on they feet/
Feed my family with my work, insure they have enough to eat/
Dedicated to my craft, writing what I live and see/
Learning every single day, bout how shit ain't what it seem/
Still I, keep grindin, keep rhymin, persevering thru the years/
In these streets shinin, writing my legacy/
One song at a time, clearly proving my points/
deadly, claiming what's mine, On a mission for success/
Stayin ready for what's next, Confident when taking bets/
makin doubters fall in debt, if they against me/
Lookin all shocked cuz they thought they could best me/
But see I'm too sharp! Dead serious about my art/
Too passionate with this shit, my Lyrics str8 from the heart/
Never ever will I quit, been loyal since from the start/
Severed from a different cloth, ima diamond in the dark/
Stayin humble thru the struggle, On this journey I embark/
Spreading hope, spittin dope, yea that's what I'm livin for/
Bouncing back from bullshit like a wrestler on the ropes/
Reminiscing blowin smoke staring high up at the moon/
Independent doin me till I'm restin in my tomb/

HOOK:2x
That's right motherfuckas throw it up right now/
Shout out to crowd, west coast in the house/
They talk about the top, welll Ima make it no doubt/
Spittin that ill shit, live from the Underground/

OUTRO:

Yea
