Intro: (JiLt) Yeah, Chaos Entertainment, JCD right here, yo, yo this is how it starts right here, this is how he got where he was, lets go

Verse 1: Growin up I was the kid that got picked on by those beasts, always pushing me around and throwin me into trees, those were the days when I appreciated things like the breeze, and feel it pass over my body like if it were a disease, and I could be at peace not worry about if time would freeze, but cease altogether is how its gotta be, cuz sometimes we need life to slow down so we, can reflect on sh*** that happens so quickily, cuz we get f***ed up by the feelings that escape our pleas, not realizing that our lives are only just a tease, of what could be if we gave everything our all, even 100% effort sometimes is too small, people say I’ve turned soft that’s cuz im emotionally lost, and ill get my message across no matter what the cost, so you can try to take control and act like you the boss, but when its all said and done you’ll be the one at a loss

Chorus: I went from no one to someone quick, yet there’s always someone talking shit, used to piss me off and make me sick, but I know now they say it cuz they jealous…yeah, I went from no one to someone quick, yet there’s always someone talking shit, used to piss me off and make me sick, but I know now they say it cuz they jealous, from no one to someone and that’s how it is

Verse 2: Now presently I can see people always talk to me, is that cuz I’m JCD, would they talk to me if I was only Jesse, would people even know who I am, if I hadn’t written and recorded Rock It and made them fans, I dunno that’s the problem that I face everyday, but I don’t think I’ll ever know since all my raps will stay, they’ll be associated with my name all the way to my last day, and I can’t give up now man it’s just too late, so I put all my focus on taking it to the next level, I have no reason to disobey and try to be a rebel, I just tell it how it is and that’s hard in this business, cuz people don’t wanna hear your sh*** unless it is exciting, or it seems so inviting, and if it’s about fighting, then lots of folks will ride it, cuz violence is the sh*** now a days, but if that’s all I talked about I’d get erased instantly, cuz too many rappers are that way

Chorus

Verse 3: Bloods pumpin now goin through my veins, the adrenaline is rushing straight to my brain, and I’m not ashamed to say that I get better in everyway, everyday that I write but how much more can I take, of people saying I’m f***ed and that all my tracks suck, cuz man I’ve had enough of these kids tryin to act tough, cuz its obvious that what I do is way more than luck, its skill motha f***as so shut the f*** up, you cannot walk the walk you cannot talk the talk, you cannot keep up with me after all I’ve been taught, ya’ll think you know pain, f*** that my hearts stained, lost a friend too early as I cried in the rain, and I know what its like to be depressed, I’ve felt all of life’s stress but man it’s for the best, cuz we learn from this sh*** that happens way too often, til one day we look back and realize that we caused it

Chorus 2x
