I Know My Name

[Verse 1] It's a long way from home here I'm getting tired of walking I can use a break but we're a long way from thrones here I knew i should have planned ahead And when i spoke my dream they said i took it too far Well good cause i'm going there Know what you call a man tryna make a name for himself So selfish, tryna to take the whole rap game for himself Can't help it Now who the fuck said It was cool to put wealth before health Cause i've been away too long Just to buy anything they could sell me And I still can't buy time Tryna see how many won in a life time This moment nigga can happen in one life time These are thoughts i get when i ride through the city In the night time with a nice car with the windows down Like let the moonlight shine Let a young nigga shine Shine to get the shine right Feeling like i've been killing time waiting for when the time right Embracing lines in my verse making sure i got my lines right Since life never gave me lemons I took the mic and the limelight I got my own bed, gotta learn to respect it I'm on a confidence high, the compliments is well effective And Tez making these comparisons, I don't think I should mention Cause if I said it, y'all would think I'm a hell of a rapper sent from heaven And I don't want y'all to expect shit I should name my tape unexpected Like really fuck all the hype I work hard imma earn my credit Euro [Interlude] Yeah, Euro I know I know my name... Im just tryin' to make sure that you don't forget it [x2] [Verse 2] Along pursuit of happiness when is it happy endin? I remember when I used to smile or when I start pretendin' That's around the time I noticed them gunshots were rangin' Around the same place that all of my family or friends is So every night I spend it all like I ain't savin nothin No self-defense man, I keep somebody to spray it for me I know you don't love me, still I make you say it for me Girl I'm trouble I just hope my family still prayin for me It's crazy I used to have a good-spirit as a kid Before I noticed the difference of bein' poor and rich My sister just had a daughter, the baby father split He told her lies to make her fall in love, he ain't shit I blame me, I break hearts, it all makes sense It's payback, it may be karma, I hate that bitch Now if my niece want somethin, I make sure she has it I've had it, refuse to live anything less than above average I put the city on the map, I did it all smoked up Shots up, no cup, yeah I'm wit' it all In the mornin' I wake up and sure that I'll forget it all I'll do it, I'll do it, you'll probably forget who did it all [Outro] I know I know my name... Im just tryin' to make sure that you don't forget it
