Verse One - “Peace for the family, all I want in life./ I’m out here taking chances when I roll the dice./ I learn from my mistakes. Try not to make ‘em twice./ But if my babies ain’t ok, I’ll run a play tonight./ I did this shit my way, that’s how I sleep at night./ It’s lessons in everything if you read it right./ I manage information, I don’t give advice./ Don’t blame it on inflation when I raise the price./ I wake up every morning on a paper plane. Off my favorite strain, then proceed to do some player things./ Yeah my girl’s Cinderella and I’m Dana Dane./ Hittin stains, screamin ‘Fuck the fame!’, while I’m changing lanes./ Now days I dress it down, you know, keep it plain./ They snappin photos when you loud, keep that in the frame./ Consumed ‘The Blueprint’ in my youth, soon to change the game./ ‘This is Jay everyday’, I could ‘Never Change’./” Verse Two - “You switched it up at the last minute./ Fucked it up doing bad business./ That’s why we outlast niggas./ Ya’ll could never, ever clash with us./ The smartest man don’t know it all./ God’s plan this is protocol./ It was written, we was supposed to ball./ All or nothing, yo, that’s overall./ Trophies in the halls. Numbers on the boards./ Buy it wholesale, get a lot more./ Yeah I got more./ Fuck a top-shelf, this is top floor./ THINK Label, gon cop yours./ Shout out HK, Rokmore./ Been independent whole time, I don’t give a fuck about July, 4th./ If it’s ‘bout my freedom, I’ma slide for it./ If it’s ‘bout my brothers, I’ma ride for ‘em./ If it’s bout my sisters, I’ma kill for ‘em./ The game opened up, we just fill a void./ What the fuck you in your feelings for?/ Fuck out my face, I get real annoyed when they get in the way of a nigga joy./ Feeling like I’m the illest out Illinois./ I ain’t worried ‘bout favorites man. Just face it man, can’t none of ya’ll hang./ Ya’ll do favor for a favor, that whole set up is lame./ I don’t fuck with no medicine that don’t come from no elements man./ Get your chakras in line, ‘fore you try blocking mine. Whoa./” Bridge - “Look for Martin and find, I had Malcolm in mind./ I move mountains for mines./ I deflated my ego, took every ounce of my pride./ Niggas doubted my grind./ On that mountain I climb./ Niggas swore that I died./ Still I rise, I survive./ Niggas keepin shit live./ Yeah I ride with the squad./ Look a God in his eyes./ I see behind your facade./ In Champaign city, I’m like the man with one eye, in the land of the blind.”
