Induction Speech

This is my Hall of Fame Induction Speech

You're far too kind

Check

We went from quarter juices from the corner to wine glasses

We pass blunts thinking bout the past as the time passes

I went from roaming hallways with a backpack trynna find classes

To ducking off of girls that snuck backstage trynna find passes

Went from ripped shoes looking through hand-me-downs trying to find my look

And now it's an overlook the water views thanks to my rhyme book

Thanks to my flows now you'll be more than good if you pay for my verses

With punchlines you'll be K.O. backwards if you buy my hooks

Okay you might not have got that

That means O.K. as in doing O.K

I mean who would have thought that

That I'd be doing this from back in the old days I couldn't have bought that

But I was sold a dream I ran away with it now look what I brought back

I might have changed is what the niggas that I used to know say

I've brought change is what the niggas that I call my bro's say

That's all I hear, the family's all right here

I swear, that's all I hear, yeah

For as long as I'm here, we all right here

I think I'm getting wasted tonight

I realized that I made it tonight

You gotta hear just how I made it tonight

'Cause it's crazy how I made it

And tonight is the night

I think I've realized that I made it tonight

Raise your glass, let's make a toast and celebrate it tonight

You could be anywhere in the world, you're here with me

I know what it takes to get here, and I'm glad that you could make it tonight

So cheers

I flew afternoon and made it by night

I landed the flight was amazing I just stayed up and write

Chauffeur was waiting with a sign except my name wasn't right

The drive was scenic, the night was dark and the lobby was white

I'm reminded, forgot to text Mack that I made it I typed that I made it

He hit me back like check in I told him I appreciate it, like twice

Scoop me up in the ghost and headed to the skatepark

Bumping some old Jigga, the same song I think it played like twice

Under the street lights in Miami thinking damn this is life

With no hype, never dropped a song, I'm just saying I'm nice

Trying to prove Scanty right, the only one that kept saying I'm nice

And all along he believed in me, all along

I'm out to prove wrong whoever said I would do wrong motherfucker

And stunna went from Birdman, to Stunna to Uncle Stunna

And Tune went from Lil Wayne, to Tune to my big brother

Man Slim just told me it's my time I gotta call my mother

And tell her

I think I'm getting wasted tonight

I realized that I made it tonight

You gotta hear just how I made it tonight

'Cause it's crazy how I made it

And tonight is the night

I think I've realized that I made it tonight

Raise your glass, let's make a toast and celebrate it tonight

You could be anywhere in the world, you're here with me

I know what it takes to get here, and I'm glad that you could make it tonight

So cheers

That's some real shit

But I don't think I'm done yet

Check

I've waited, days after days, I've grown, age after age

I've ripped page after page, now I'm running, stage after stage

With a story, coming from nothing to dinner in a house with mad stories

Now every night's trill we leave the club with mad stories

Now bad bitches love me and good girls go bad for me

I'm having a good night, drinking everything that's bad for me

I'm on all of that, all because I can sorta rap

I mean kinda sorta I'm all that

I want it all so order that

And let's toast

I think I'm getting wasted tonight

I realized that I made it tonight

You gotta hear just how I made it tonight

'Cause it's crazy how I made it

And tonight is the night

I think I've realized that I made it tonight

So Raise your glass, let's make a toast and celebrate it tonight

You could be anywhere in the world, you're here with me

I know what it takes to get here, so I'm glad that you could make it

Hold up bring it back

I think I'm getting wasted tonight

I said I've realized that I've made it tonight

Yeah, you gotta hear just how I made it tonight

'Cause it's crazy how I made it

And tonight is the night

I think I've realized that I've made it tonight

So raise your glass, let's make a toast, we're celebrating tonight

You could be anywhere in the world, you're here with me,

I know what it takes to get here

And I'm glad that you could make it tonight

So cheers
