Hphk
They keep saying it takes patience
Idk if I can keep waiting
Skipping lines, breeding hatred
This history in the making
Hunger pains and hard knocks Raised me
Pay me
They keep saying it takes patience
Idk if I can keep waiting
Skipping lines, breeding hatred
This history in the making
Hunger pains and hard knocks Raised me
Pay me
They say they won't love you till your gone
Got me wondering why I lust for validation
Cuz I know with hard work comes reparation
And my hard work
Will be paid in with nations screaming lyrics
This my manifestation
Been an addict for these beats
Since mother and father split sheets
Since then, I've been neck deep in composition competition
Late nights, Beats kickin
Wrapped up in my own religion
Voices sayin I won't sell
Because they know I will
I don't listen
Not anymore
Residing behind a locked door
Still that hip hop stepchild
Heart full of angst
Putting the vibes out there for anyone that thinks
Nobody listens
When they do
They just mad that they can't do it like you
Can't sleep because the dream don't
Out here running on fumes
Stressing out about streams and YouTube views
In my four cornered room
staring at white board notes
Scraping up change to pay the man
So that my lights still work
Weekly checks get divvied up
Can barely eat when you're broke
Cuz the dream come first
Got me fastin for the passion
Before I leave this earth
Y'all gonna know what skills y'all lacking
Epitome of growth
y'all still teethin though
Y'all don't know
They keep saying it takes patience
Idk if I can keep waiting
Skipping lines, breeding hatred
This history in the making
Hunger pains and hard knocks Raised me
Pay me
They keep saying it takes patience
Idk if I can keep waiting
Skipping lines, breeding hatred
This history in the making
Hunger pains and hard knocks Raised me
Pay me
When it comes down to it
I don't know what else I would do
If I couldn't pursue the music.
Plan Bs seem like defeat
So I'm out here throwing pebbles at my dream girls window
Trynna creep
Long days
And love letters
Nine hour shifts
Bringing small cheddar
Broads on my dick
They peeped the Instagram
But the girl I want is on the west side
Timing is a bitch, and in demand
Want to follow her but She ain't got time
We both got our grinds
But she on my mind
They don't make em like her
she one of a kiiiind
Pushing me to my goals
Got me singing fifties best friend while I jot down woes
My mental constantly battling
Cuz the flesh wants more
Blessings disguised as Life lessons
Pile up outside the door
But I'm focusing
Laid up in the blood sweat and tears that I've been soaking in
Since the day my cousin passed
I vowed I'd keep on flowing
My pen growing
My garden never neglected
Haven't dropped a project
Been too worried bout perfection
Cant let them
Fill my head up with second guesses
This my year
I'm projecting my growths gonna sky rocket
Stock rising
Don't need a squad no more
Mother fuck a nose diving
Co pilot
Someone bail again
I might get violent
They keep saying it takes patience
Idk if I can keep waiting
Skipping lines, breeding hatred
This history in the making
Hunger pains and hard knocks Raised me
Pay me
They keep saying it takes patience
Idk if I can keep waiting
Skipping lines, breeding hatred
This history in the making
Hunger pains and hard knocks Raised me
Pay me
