Rico - From the Ground Up Lyrics

I did this from the ground up man
You won't ever keep me shut man
You doubted me by myself so
I won't accept your damn help bro

Wow when did I become such a focused artist
When did I start tryna put my heart in
When did I start tryna make the spark lit
When did I start seeing people as targets
When did I start removing people's Garments
When did I start cleaning all that tarnish
Let's take it back to where it all started
I was writing all my secrets
Not writing some super deep hits
Felt like I was making heat then
I realized I wasn't reaping
Right then I met a real G it
Motivated me to seize it
They were like boy you go keep wins
Then I came back with a beat pen
Then I was in my zone
Writing like I was grown
Like I was on the throne
I made people's minds blown
Made a bunch of rhymes known
Met a bunch of people
Faced a lot of evil
Started busting weak skulls
Of guys that said he dull
I became a changed man
I was on a stage man
No more mister caged man
Great in every way man
Ever since those days man
Nothing was the same and
I never felt pain man

Once that happened I became
Someone who wanted his name
To be mentioned with the greats
So I worked now its my fate

I did this from the ground up man
You won't ever keep me shut man
You doubted me by myself so
I won't accept your damn help bro

Wow now I learned from my mistakes
I just had to learn to make... hits
Now I'll never take a break
And frequently I will take... risks
Even in Chicago I'm so great
I don't like I really hate... it
Now I'm making bangers
Please control your anger
You ain't really heard how
Hard I do this work now
I'm working all day man
Till I'm super-sayan
I been working long nights
So I get my songs right
Not seeing the wrong sight
This dog got a strong bite
Sometimes I get no sleep
But I always go deep
Into my emotions
Write mental explosions
So that I can go in
With some super flows and
Everybody knows it
I'm the one who's chosen
My record begins so pristine
All these people seen I'm so clean
The second I step on the scene
Everybody screaming supreme

I did this from the ground up man
You won't ever keep me shut man
You doubted me by myself so
I won't accept your damn help bro
