Is it too late, to get a taste of this expensive koolaid
Married to the game and did it without a bouquet
Coming for the top spot, better watch ya toupe
In the kitchen tryna blend 2 Chainz wit Lupe
Ratchet wit a classic, classic wit a ratchet
Flow sick so long they saying that it's Magic
Kobe with the mic, get the crown won't pass it
Jordan on the mic, crunchtime that's a basket
They be talking numbers, I be talking legacy
working all my life to be a overnight celebrity
You rather be Vanilla Ice, that is what you telling me
How to be a player, change the game Bill Bellamy
Used to have dreams of being unsigned hype
When did it stop counting to getting 5 Mics
When did it stop counting to really being nice
Now we all chasing a million and three likes
An I don't wanna talk about ya Youtube views
An I don't really agree with the new school rules
I don't wanna talk about ya Instagram followers
We leaders in real life, Everybody follow us
Diamond in the rough, what they said when I started
Even when I'm full I be working like I'm starving
Imagine when I'm starving, I be working like I'm never gone eat again
Up like I'm never gone sleep again
Right back like I never left, Aiming straight to the top
An I'm shooting wit a better Steph
And my big homie said it best
If you really for the culture, young king you better rep

Now back to the script, (hold up) back to the story

Rest In Peace to Mac Dre, I got love for The Bay
I'm the answer to the game, aint no need to ask Sway
Aint no need to ask Ye, aint no need to ask Jay
I been working overtime, I'm gone need that back pay
Got a bad little brown thang, get it from her momma
She bad like Beyonce, sexy like Rihanna

Forever and more I want you always
Forever and more we'll be always
I'm still tryna figure out who sent you
And why I'm comfortable telling you what I been through
And why you comfortable telling me what you been through
I guess the unthinkable happening if it's meant to
What we doing at this diner at four in the morning
What we doing at this diner and one of us yawning
I don't even want food, just a cup of coffee
I know I'm falling asleep but please keep on talking
I heard you order pancakes I'm waking up
That's enough to make me think about us making love
That's enough to make me think about our wedding sonnnngg
If you say it could be Cruising, Lets get it on
No joke all facts no contemplating
An I never heard of love at first conversation
But it's a first time for everything
You said it could be Cruising here go the wedding ring
Forever and more I want you always
Forever and more we'll be always
I really appreciate ya time
I really appreciate ya mind
I really appreciate ya grind
And the icing on the cake is that you fine
Long legs don't care, brown skin short hair
Thicker than a snicker and ya loyalty is so rare
Yeah lets go half on a baby
I know we just met and that sound kinda crazy but
What we waiting on Christmas
You already got a son, he probably want a sister
Matter fact he probably really want a lil brother
He five now, what you think about having another
I mean, we already talking bout forever
If we living in the moment it's now or never
So lets go half on a baby
I know we just met and that sound kinda crazy but
Forever and more I'm with you always
Forever and more we'll be always

Dear Mr. Cuban
You see me in the hood, it don't mean that I'm mobbing it don't mean that I'm shooting
It don't mean I'm plotting, to stick you for your billions
It don't mean I'm a threat to your children
I'm always in the hood, no really I'm always in the hood
Ask around anybody'll tell you that kid good
And that's true story, no that's real facts
No that's real talk, no really that's real rap
See, this all sound so silly
What's the difference between me and Billy
If I'm in the park with a hoodie on, I must be robbing
Billy wearing the same thing he must be jogging
I must be squatting, I must be popping
You must be neighborhood watching, Let's talk about it
Cause the issue at hand, we ain't gone walk around it
That type of thinking have innocent kids with chalk around them
Damn I guess things still the same
I guess everything still the same
Dear America, we ain't begging you to feel our pain
We just asking for a lil bit of change (Let's talk about it)
Damn I guess things still the same
I guess everything still the same
Dear America, we ain't begging you to feel our pain
We just asking for a lil bit of change (Let's talk about it)

Survival (The Hunt)

I'm the king of my city when it come to these bars
No lying tryna eat cubs want me to starve
But I'm a Lion like Barry I won't fumble the ball
Had it hot all Summer so they want me to Fall
Go figure, could still make it a cold winter
4th quarter mine and we can Spring it in November
Even though I'm October's Very Own
OVO Libra scales got me in the zone
Nah it aint Drake it's ya favorite rapper Blake
With the porn money shot spitting all in ya face
Pause, some of yall won't get it
But the world a porn star and some of yall won't hit it
Keep it live, work hard with the sleepy eyes
When they hating on you you get even when you beat the odds
I was playing with the hand I was dealt
Then the butterfly effect happened, yeah Michael Phelps
I'm just stroking, getting my city open
Flow bipolar being humble while I'm boasting
Flow bipolar being humble while I'm bragging
It's kinda like writing LOL without laughing
If skills sold, truth be told
I'd probably be sitting next to Nas and Jay Z
Truthfully I wanna rhyme like, Nah I had to get my mind right
It's showtime now, I'm in the limelight
I never did make that XXL
Dropped a classic album but it was trouble to sell
I aint saying it was Illmatic
But 20 years from now, when they play it I bet they say it was still classic
Or it's still Magic
They forgot it was sick, but somehow got reminded that it still had it
See it's bars like that that I be throwing out
That have rappers sitting there like damn Blake showing out
Hold up, let me throw a lil more though
Sell it out the trunk no torso, Hold up
So sick every time I spit they think it's throw up
Without the flex bomb Blake still gone blow up
I'm feeling like back when they couldn't stop Game
I'm feeling like back when they couldn't stop Wayne
They couldn't stop Dame
See I'm hungry like a artist that was starving and just rapping for a Roc chain
Can't stop my familia
It says a lot about you if you not feeling us
It says a lot about you if you not feeling me
Cool dude sipping on a brew like Billy D
2 forty's, big bottle of vodka
Alize and Mo in the spirit of Big Poppa
It was all a dream, going through them nightmares
Sneaking on the bus back when I aint have the right fare
Yeah take a look at me now
An I don't know what you heard but I'm the talk of the town
My city on fire, everybody buzzing
An I was on fire back when everybody wasn't
Longevity really made me a better me
Bars over swag in my Pedigree
No Triple H, No Shawn Michaels
My Degeneration Next and we don't like you
They said the crown is for taken
I been racing to the throne since I found it was vacant
They said the crown is for taken
I been racing to the throne since I found it was vacant

I remember graduating from a six deuce
Copped a quarter key and then I flipped that flip that six moves
My bro cracked like you know what you getting into
Shhhh I'm tryna slide up in that benzu
Any bad b I holla at getting her ends on
You the type of probably end up in her friendzone
Damn what a shame man what a shame
Trick you probably wish you was cuffing is screaming out my name
I had to struggle through the hustle make that water bubble
Red nose pit that's my b she crazy off the muzzle
I had to learn the hard way the streets doesn't love you
So I put the pieces together and completed the puzzle
An against all odds man I'm still here
And through it all thank God my vision still clear
No cases ain't shhh to appeal here
Shell cases for the haters shhh get real here
Look in my eyes, Shouldn't be no surprise
We focused on the prize, young kings on the rise
Straight from the Northside
Where we pray we make it out alive (talk to em)
Hit up Broadway come and catch the vibes
Everyday you gotta strive
I made myself so easy to love, I made myself so hard to hate
I'm getting high off life and the people like how you don't smoke in the Garden State
But I be sipping vodka like it's starbucks
If you aint Oprah I can never be StarStruck
I used to listen to Hova to get my bars up
I dare a rapper to come and tell me I'm washed up
And they gone get these 16's like 11th grade
I got enough bars to last for 11 days
Every track straight black wit a better shade
Pat on my back like Shaq wit a better Wade
I came with heat just to win rings
I told my team it's no sleep unless it's big dreams
Honestly I ain't been sleep since I was 16
And that's a long long time ago but is it too late

Cheer For Me

I'm just tryna live my life, take care of the family get everything right
I'm just tryna live my life, work all day and have sex all night
I'm just tryna live my life, take care of the family get everything right
I'm just tryna live my life, work all day and make love all night
This is what they wanted, something real something that they could feel
Something that they can drive to when they behind the wheel
Something that they can vibe to when they up in the city
Tell them haters I'm here they want me then come and get me
History in the making, history I'm a make it
They ain't giving me nothing for free, I'm a take it
Been paid my dues, can't tell me different
If I want 5 Mics you can't sell me Pippen
Classic and that's coming straight from The Source
Blake the safe bet that's coming straight from the horse
Should I say it again it's coming straight from my voice
They gotta deal wit it they don't really got a choice
I'm just tryna live my life, take care of the family get everything right
I'm just tryna live my life, work all day and have sex all night
I'm just tryna live my life, take care of the family get everything right
I'm just tryna live my life, work all day and make love all night
This is what they wanted, something real something that they could love
Everything ain't about popping a bottle in the club
Everything ain't about making it rain in the Go-Go
Everything ain't about spending some change out in Soho
Even though I be sipping, even though I be tipping
That's everybody story, I'm reading you something different
You can't judge a book by the cover
But they say you can judge a man by the way he treat his Mother
Dear Momma, tell Grandma I wish yall was still here for me
So when I make it big I can see y'all cheer for me
My first award just send me a sign down
To let me know the world mine now (it's mine)
I'm just tryna live my life, take care of the family get everything right
I'm just tryna live my life, work all day and have sex all night
I'm just tryna live my life, take care of the family get everything right
I'm just tryna live my life, work all day and make love all night

They say I Coulda Been Kendrick I Coulda Been Cole
I Coulda Been Nas I Coulda Been Hov
I Coulda Been the best rapper alive
I'm good on that, none of the best rappers alive
See I grew up on BIG, I grew up on Pac
I listened to Kim fell in love wit Fox
I'm only focused on working on my legacy
Triple H flow you know it's something in my pedigree
I use to cop them clue mixtapes every week
Sickamore instrumentals snapping over every beat
I was supposed to be the one just listen
Now they just saying that I Coulda Been Kendrick
Same kid different city check the history
If I can get a shot this will be a victory
Talking bout the top, I want em to mention me
Then ya idols become ya rivals eventually
I had a plan to make it up out the trap
An I aint gone trap, I'm a show em how to rap
I got a story to tell and the world gone hear it
Some of yall gone cheer it, some of yall gone fear it
Some of yall gone say I'm overrated, some of yall gone hate it
Some of yall gone say that I'm the greatest
They use to tell me Blake don't forget me when you make it
I replied don't forget me if I don't become famous
Wanted to win a grammy, bring it right back to Grammy
Tell my Mother I love her, I did it for the family
I was supposed to be the one just listen
Now they just saying that I Coulda Been Kendrick
They say I Coulda Been Kendrick I Coulda Been J.Cole
I Coulda Been Nas I Coulda Been J. Hov
I ain't think nobody was working as hard as me
Could Been Weezy, Carter 2 Carter 3
I grew up on Ma$e, Snoop Dogg and Redman
Rocafella, Ruff Ryder, Def Jam
I'm only focused on working on my legacy
DMX flow it's something different in my pedigree
I use to have my demo wit me just looking Diddy
Everyday me and Liteskin was in the city
And we thought it would pop but it didn't
Now they just saying that I Coulda Been Kendrick

Sunday Dinner
02:39
|

Pops left me, my Momma passed
My first thought was thinking how I'm a last
My first thought was thinking how I'm a last
Then my Grandma passed, and my Granddad
I was looking up to the sky
And Grandaddy said boy be a stand up guy
He probably said that because he saw me bout to cry
You can tell everything changed looking in my eyes
So I took a shot of vodka in his memory
Dad walked pass like he ain't even remember me
I was sitting there like I wanted me a father
I'm grown already why should I even bother
Tell my sisters I love em, hope we grow to be closer
Say a prayer to my mother, I wish we would've been closer
Have a drink with my brother, pull him a lil closer
Tell him I'm sorry that I aint do what I was suppose ta
Nothing was the same, just a bunch of pain
I lost everything but I had so much to gain
I use to find myself screaming out my Momma name
I use to find myself calling out my Grandma name
When Grandpa Blake died I was spose to be the man
Something went wrong and then we had a change of plans
Gotta get my life together, better late than never
My family saw all my flaws once we stayed together
The plan was just to drink until the pain over
Figured out the pain last longer than the hangover
When me and Uncle Blake use to get into it
The only thing I was tryna tell him is we blew it
See I get teary eyed doing too much thinking
Cause I get emotional doing too much drinking
Don't judge me just love me for what I could be
If you ever loved me I know that you understood me
