Lyrics
Yeah, 9 11 Turbo S make it NATO green
Stealthy with the wealth I don't make a scene
But they still know I play for keeps
It's like a crash landing over water, yeah it's plain to see
I refuse to be the one who says wait for me
I'd rather take the lead
And they say targets cheap till they see what I'm paid to speak
The rate is steep
Salary like major leagues to say the least
Ironic 'cause I say the most
Let's raise our glass and make a toast
Cheers to the ones who stayed loyal, expected nothing and gave the most
Lord knows I wasn't getting to this place alone
Breaking bread never breaking oaths
But I still gotta watch my back 'cause the hate can grow
I keep my grass cut short where snakes can go
Laying low, taking notes
Observation post; laser scoped
Run the game with my girl we like Link and Zelda
She's there to lift me up when I can't pick myself up
Execs laughed us out the room, they were quick to shelve us
Now we flying high and they treat us well like a trip with Delta
I'm feeling like McConoughey in Interstellar
Time slipping through my fingers trying to grip it better
Lot I want to do before I die, got a list to settle
Down to the wire, I do it all like I'm Idris Elba, yeah
Multi-millionaire, multi-hyphenists
Want to be like Donald Glover, they tell me that's childish
Six years old the first time I ever signed a check
Go ahead and check Google, this no overnight success
I chose a path and I stuck to it; no luck to it
Decide to do it, how Russ do it; no rush to it
Kool-Aid man, they put up walls; I run through it, oh yeah
Nike is on my feet 'cause I just- you know
Myself in 10 years who I'm inspired by
In other words, my full potential is what I idolize
A lot of work to do but I see glimpses of him time-to-time
Fear of the unknown is what he often tries to hide behind
Life experience I gotta get more
Less bottled up, gotta vent more
Less time indoors, more exploring
Less time with friends, more mentors
If me and Connor ever hit the road that's men touring
While we mentoring MCs that say a lot but are so boring
Very unalluring, we more like MCs of the past who mentored rap's forming
Now we grilling them like we was George Foreman's side hustle
Acting like it ain't nothing, ask Russell
Cinderella man, Connor been acting since then, you, silly pumpkin
I spit out bars like it was soap and I
Daniel Day or Daniel K like this was no
And before it was cool to be a jack of all trades
I was good in every field 'cause I really am the goat
Look, I ain't get a Hollywood star, I got the constellation
And now I'm planning on the planet so they ain't mistaken
When they discussing who the best entertainer in life is
It really ain't up for debating
Look, I mentor my mentees at a matinee
And the music week charts in the same day
And Elba got his nephew Elkan on the beat
Got me wondering about the boy, boi-1da got the heat
Me and Connor like Al and Bobby
Great in our ways and a hell of a story
We got the love and support, so we never need worry
And we are really good and we really ain't sorry
We need more mentors
(There must be more)
(More love and guidance)
Life experience I gotta get more
Less bottled up, gotta vent more
Less time indoors, more exploring
Less time with friends, more mentors
(More love and guidance)
