alvin shema - 53 Lyrics

My og told me I'm the hardest youngin' out
That's a fact I dont know nobody doin' what I'm doin' bro
Hours in the studio like hours in the lab
I be cookin' everything just put your order on my tab
Excuse my manners cause at first I didn't introduce
It's young shema coming for your neck just like a noose
Age 11 I became my own manager
Selfmade baby we just not the same caliber
I see some niggas that be movin like you owe them some
Stickin' out they hands what you want? A f*cking manicure?
All I needed was some guidance from above
Now I'm headed towards greatness with the people that I love
I swear it's beauty in the struggle but my elegance is rough and I like that
I feel like Carlos in Madrid I'm goin right back
Back to my roots this how I really be
This shit a passion imma do it till I'm 53
And I been studying the greats
I been lookin' at the Hova's and the Drake's
I been lookin' at the Wheezy's and the Ye's
I'm grateful for the way that I was raised
My father taught me how to be a man
My mother taught me how to be a lover and a friend
Now I gotta go and get it livin' off a second chance that's some real talk
Heavy is the head that wears the crown
So it's only kinda right the devil tryna break me down
But he won't tho
Failure is a no go
I'm headed to succces
I'm really farther than the rest and even farther from my best
At this point I'm just competing with myself
And like a junkie need a hit I need a Grammy on my shelf
Yeah I'm handsome and I'm gifted so my cards was fairly dealt
I'm rockin Levi's with the Asics and you know what's on the belt bihhhhh
