If I don't make it, how the hell can I live on with myself
I'm close to making it, I feel like I belong on the shelf
My mind is vacant when I spit, I keep no words to myself
Visually making it manifest all the greatness I swear I'm in for a reason, ain't nobody
Gonna take it I need my mother and my father to see me f*cking
Make it When I'm contending for a Grammy, wanna put
Them on the stand Got a gas mask, block all the toxic from
The fam I got an army like a flock of birds
They always super silent, they be acting like they f*cking Ferb
I keep my mind going with all these words When I lose my train of thought, I think it's
The end of the f*cking world Slow down lane, switch, we on it
Speed it up real quick, flow switch On my grind, never stop, I'm hustling
Mix it together, I get my hustle flow shit On top of the world, I'm stepping on shit
Wake em up, they overslept, I'm getting started They gon' be mad when they see I'm on that
Big shit Who is next to contend 99 shit
On my f*cking rise, I'll never forget my first time
I second guess my own life, I belong in front of a mic
On my f*cking rise, I'll never forget my first time
I second guess my own life, I belong in front of a mic
If I don't make it, how the hell can I live on with myself
I'm close to making it, I feel like I belong on the shelf
My mind is vacant when I spit, I keep no words to myself
Visually making it manifest all the greatness If I don't make it, how the hell can I live on
With myself? I'm close to making it, I feel like I belong
On the shelf My mind is vacant when I spit, I keep no
Words to myself Visually making it manifest all the greatness
If I give up right now, I know I'ma regret it I gotta keep it pushing, being tested every
Minute If I give up right now, I'm never gonna make
It Keep my eyes on the prize and pray to God
That I make it If I give up right now, I'm only gon' be
Losing I'm never gonna flip all the money that
I invested So I gotta stay strong
And I know I'm never gonna fall A vacant mind is a thing, keeps us all closer
That means we all express our feelings even if it hurts us
But a lot of us don't do it, so it destroys us
So we gotta see a therapist to only help us
A vacant mind, we got a vacant mind A vacant mind, we got a vacant mind
If I don't make it, how the hell can I live on with myself
I'm close to making it, I feel like I belong on the shelf
My mind is vacant when I spit, I keep no words to myself
Visually making it, manifest all the greatness
If I don't make it, how the hell can I live on with myself
I'm close to making it, I feel like I belong on the shelf
My mind is vacant when I spit, I keep no words to myself
Visually making it, manifest all the greatness
