Lyrics
a lot of cats want big names on their record/
don’t get hurt feelings if you can’t match the effort//2
of a veteran, but you can always drop bills/
paying for cameos cuz they don’t got the skills//4
lets keep it real, I’m just statin the fuckin the facts
I work my hands to the bone not cutting you any slack//6
you got a guest star on every other track
half of your album’s sand peeps, the other half’s wack//8
as for me, made every beat, guest stars only three
just the cats I rap with, me and only go back//10
before he blew/ omnipresence was the name of the crew/
we went our separate ways both did what I had to do//12
for me that rehab and didn’t get the opportunity
that he had but time has a plan my dopeness relapsed//14
I guess it wasn’t my time, it was his cuz he deserved it/
I came back twice as strong as a writer and as a person//16
and I’m glad everything happened the way it did
cuz I did everything myself so I can let him have his//18
I don’t gotta sweat no one like these cats with their hands out/
like they cant get their own fuckin fork to their damn mouth//20
Chorus
my objective in this music is to stand out/
if you’re a featuring on your own record you need to stand down//
you cant carry an album without cats holding you up/
then the glass is half full but there’s a hole in the cup//
I understand wanting your record to be ill/
But is it skills to pay the bills or bills payin for skills//
Ask yourself the difference, feel me
At the end of the day, who’s record is it really//
Didn’t buy a single beat, produced the whole album
Had to prove to myself that I could do it without em//2
Every beat on the record, dope as fuck
Cuz im broke and I don’t ride coat tails, what//4
I’m not trying to take money out sapes pockets/
Cuz dude has mad talent and he’s bound to make profits//6
But I’m not ridin his dick the rest of yall should stay off it/
And build something for yourself instead of paying for your audience//8
I’m just name droppin You really wanna be a hiphop quotable/
Know the rules and bring some dedication to the vocal booth //10
I choke the truth out of the devil and keep my focus true
And sweat to make something real that represents my broken views//12
I learned to rock over my beats when they were wack/
Back when None of the homies would let me on their tracks//14
It was hard work that got me here, not cheddar/
When I wasn’t good enough to make it, I got better//16
Chorus x 1
Its hard to breathe up in this game, there aint no ventilation/
A million emcees trying to reach the center stage but//2
Im gonna be the one to make it through penetrate
And germinate this art form that constantly regenerates//4
I’ll never take the back of the line/
This is the more entertainment or passin the time//6
I’ll break my back makin rap til I fracture my spine
This song is dedicated to the cats that’s actually trying//8
To make a difference, Or make it different then the last 99
asanine rappers lying how they pass the time//10
I keep my tints up dullin all your plastic shine/
Your lyrics couldn’t hold water, I turn raps to wine//12
A lot of cats just use their raps to whine
I can make a fine point within a fat design//14
Make a fly joint without askin for help
Before you master your album, you should master yourself//16
Chorus x1
