Stone cold with the flows, like Frozone

I'm only inches away, the goal post is near

I know the vision is clear

And so close, I fear

That I could fumble the play and go ghost

But it could lead to toasts at the table with my brethren

Mind of a veteran

In the land of snow, so I'll rock a letterman

I know that I'm better than these so-called lyricists

But I just play dumb, then go dummy with the pen again

They try to say that I'll go indie, it's tentative

Really, I just think that they not as competitive

As they try to seem like, I know it don't seem right

That I can sing or rap to kill a mic without repetitive themes

Back in the day, this was all but a dream

This my time, need a few million streams

Ghostface, when I hit the stage, fans scream

Wes Craven legend status what I need

Jenna Ortega and Melissa Barrera energy how I stand on business

Ind!go brown on the mic, I'ma take what's mine with God as my witness

Watch

That mission to the moon was my creed

That dream died so many times when it was covered in greed

And gettin' back up seems heroic, but punch me, I bleed

Seein' that I'm in the same class was just what I needed

Can't depend on the game, but the bro take me in

Count my wins during losses like "Yo, Adrian"

Shadowboxing in the freezer when it's no way to win

They want a piece of this pie, but don't see the dough razor-thin

Seen alcoholics battlin' Jack, they rig the game I'm in

Play it straight, or my son'll go blind when I'm raising him

Teaching fundamentals in a world where they pay to win

And if they slime me for it, I know the boy'll take it on the chin

Know it's hot in Hell's Kitchen, but the Father is near

If you can't see in front of you, then just depend on ya ears

You don't gotta fight the hand, so just let 'em steer

The kingpins'll all tremble at a man without fear

Stayed down for a while, but that bullseye chasin' me

Rejection and perfection, tryna see what they can make of me

Bro foggy, but he firm wit me, where the paper be

Ain't his concern, he know I got em if he wait patiently

Unforgiveness at the doorstep, I live' in debt

Gettin' home, but it don't feel like home, yeah, I live in stress

But I know that I'm blessed, yes, I'll trek through the rest

I miss the team, I gotta get back and journey out west

No regard for the false gods and the rules they make up

I used to feel like I was a waste of any space I take up

But now they give a space for what I say to get a taste of

These conversations compensation, Ion get a pay stub, yeah

Cold-hearted, but let's get it started

If they wanna try the kid, then it's beg your pardon

I've been asking for forgiveness 'cause I know that my heart's been hardened

And my actions and emotions can just lead to harming

Mm, I've been chilling in the garden now

Kicked up out of Eden, ended up inside a slaughterhouse, I seen the crown

I've seen a vision of what I can be

Wife and I in a home with my family and amenities

Mm, but I grew up 'round the EBT

Grew up 'round some killers, so I learned to hit a DDT

Yeah, I was raised to make them demons flee

Nowadays, it's looking like my phone been on DND

Learned to stand on my rock, like it's PnB

Pistol at the spot, but it's still God who put fear in me

It's dwindling

Working 'til I drop, 'cause I want my seed to have a better life than me without the misery (Misery)
