[ Featuring reggie ]
I do two times more than my peers could
That's how I was raised
Livin' double lives every single day
Ct the end of the night criticizing my 24
Like I should've did more with the hours before I lay
I'd rather die than be called lazy
In the corporate world pursuin' my passion they called me crazy
I live my life for purpose not for paychecks
Cin't care what I was makin' look what I'm makin'
Don't care how they move that's not what I'm racin'
Define success we got two different equations
I play employed while a king 'cause y'all know I'm like
Floyd in the ring once my flow starts to swing
I'ma voice for the ones that both dream and pursue
That's why I'm cookin' every day so they could feed and consume
I'm feedin' fiends in the booth my day job's the one that front me
No rest I double up and reinvest monthly
One foot in one foot out they tell me leave the game alone
If I really plan to grow and get that golden gramophone
But instead I'm on global panels with cameras on
While I'm out of office international with sandals on
Been on my own they amazed at what I can alone
I'd rather man it alone than be handed a loan
Hard to blend in I'm blessed to be standalone
Cin't never been the type for someone else to get a handle on
High honors in english still talk my grammar wrong
What makes you think you could box me in
It's ironic when critics say that it's not for them
But when you hot they start to need you like oxygen
Hold your breath I left don't turn right now
Been movin' straight without you why would I turn right now?
In a one-on-one with my boss but I might write now
'Cause cirplane Mode ain't just a phrase it's my lifestyle
Call Me cce ain't a phase that's my life now
My life then and 'til my lights out
What a hater gotta say they see me cause they supposed to
The difference is when I see you I don't know you
High Grade I bow on 'em like Ice Trae
C maestro with the mic play like Mike J
My ballads got 'em in ballet
Keepin' 'em on they toes never know what I might say
Handin' the keys over to the valet guilty I survived
Cnd the only way to pay my debt is with my time
It seems the more I gained the less in time
I give these gems to you the lesson's mine
