I'd like to take this moment to tell y'all how I came up
But, first, let me tell y'all where I came from
In North Miami Beach, born and raised
On the grind is how I spent most of my days
Chillin' out, maxin', relaxin', coolin'
Kickin' freestyles outside of my schoolin'
Before LL was in the house
I picked up the mic, mama almost knocked me out
Not a new jack, you ain't get the memo, wait
'98, I was on my third demo tape
No YouTube views, no Instagram
Had to hit that stage to convince the fans
Won't lie, got booed maybe once or twice
Never again, I must have been doing something right
Could it be my desire, Hunger Games?
I'm a one of one, you will find none the same
With skills required like you have never seen
I got that fire, Katniss Everdeen
See the goal was to get signed, show up in headlines
Labels slept for a while, bedtime
'Til I hit 'em with that wake-up call
(9-1-1, Emergency) Wake up, y'all
Plan A, don't stop 'til they know my name
Plan B was simple, see plan A
Gotta stay focused to overcome what's tough (Yup)
That's just how it is when you're coming up
I come out at midnight
With my baby doll
I know you seen me coming up
I come out at midnight
With my baby doll
I know you seen me coming up
I come out at midnight
With my baby doll
That's what's up
I'm a father now, I love story time
Ready for it? Here's a toy story line
They say, "Where you been, Jam?" I been right here
Just building up my buzz for a light year
Starting from scratch, something fresh indeed
Cooking up tracks, got a new recipe
A little bit of this and a little bit of that
Let it sit in the booth for 30 minutes and it's a wrap
The delivery is flawless when I spit it, that's a fact
If it isn't, permission granted, feel free to send it back
Shout out to Twista, a vet for sure
We did a song together and never met before
Sometimes that's just how the game goes
No pot of gold at the end of rainbows
