| Take a look in my eyes and you’ll see I’ve grown |
| Overcome all the lies and I feel I know |
| Where I’m at in my mind 'cause I can take it for go |
| And I, never thought that it would be this way |
| And I, never thought that I would feel this pain |
| But I, wouldn’t trade it I would be the same |
| And I, I would never really leave the game |
| Telescopic, on my future I am focused |
| Lonely at the top I wouldn’t know but I’m hopin' |
| I’m like fuck it with a flat keep rollin' |
| Nothin' in this world can keep me hangin' on a moment |
| If only you knew really what the fuckin business was |
| You would understand exactly why I thought of givin' up |
| Imagine lookin' at your competition with a bunch of riches |
| Thinkin' that they deserve it knowin' they know they didn’t |
| I’ve worked too damn hard to give a hand out |
| Motherfuckers mad at me cuz I’m the fuckin man now |
| And I ain’t turnin' back, my fuckin feet are black |
| Walkin' through the mud, tryin' to make it to a beaten path |
| But it ain’t happen and cappin' I’ll keep on rappin' |
| And lappin' until my money is stackin' and I ain’t gotta save |
| I hear them hollering I got a diamond ring |
| And what the fuck does that mean, I’m married to the game |
| Take a look in my eyes and you’ll see I’ve grown |
| Overcome all the lies and I feel I know |
| Where I’m at in my mind 'cause I can take it for go |
| And I, never thought that it would be this way |
| And I, never thought that I would feel this pain |
| But I, wouldn’t trade it I would be the same |
| And I, I would never really leave the game |
| Imagine in the industry from where I’m comin' from |
| People ain’t takin you serious until you’re blowin' up |
| And you ain’t comin' up until your people showin'' up |
| So what the fuck are you supposed to do until you’ve had enough |
| You try and tell 'em but they don’t know what they mean to you |
| Tell you that they comin' to your shows but they don’t see it through |
| It’s something serious you’re buzzin' and they’re curious |
| But where the fuck were they when you were sittin' in the studio |
| It’s nothin' new to you, people they don’t believe in you |
| But givin' up is nothin' that you would ever believe to do |
| I’m tryin' to beat it true, stand above from me to you |
| Usin' all my pain, cut a vain cuz I’m bleedin' through |
| I’m stayin focused but I’m runnin' on my second wind |
| Breathin' for the moment, only hopin' I can see the end |
| This ain’t a movie but I wish that I could skip a scene |
| I’m sick of seein' what I can but I have yet to be |
| Take a look in my eyes and you’ll see I’ve grown |
| Overcome all the lies and I feel I know |
| Where I’m at in my mind 'cause I can take it for go |
| And I, never thought that it would be this way |
| And I, never thought that I would feel this pain |
| But I, wouldn’t trade it I would be the same |
| And I, I would never really leave the game |
| Take a look in my eyes and you’ll see I’ve grown |
| Overcome all the lies and I feel I know |
| Where I’m at in my mind 'cause I can take it for go |
| And I, never thought that it would be this way |
| And I, never thought that I would feel this pain |
| But I, wouldn’t trade it I would be the same |
| And I, I would never really leave the game |
