: I have this fire deep down inside of me,
: I gotta set it out, let it go, and set it free.
: But I have a fear, not knowing how it would be.
: Is it good, is it worthy? I need myself to see.
: How it would manifest, take its form, be the best,
: Is it bland, is it sharp? this is the real test.
: Is it unique, is it special, or is it just like the rest?it was good
: Mine WILL be the best, do not contest
: Mine will be the first, I’m just too freaking obsessed
: I will be at the top,
: I’ll give it all that I got,
: I have no hope but ill still give it a shot.
: A failure wont even harm me a lot.
: ‘Cuz I’m more determined than ever, a failure just fuels the flame,
: I just don’t care, losing don’t even cause me no shame.
: I gotta lift my head up to stop livin’ in the past,
: Look to the future, damn this, I ain’t gonna be last.
: All those people laughing and jeering at me,
: Calling me a chink and a low and dirty refugee.
: First it all worked, and it caused me to run and flee,
: But now I’m back, and more determined than any emcee!
: Most people are in it for the riches and fame,
: I don’t care, it don’t matter, I wont give them no blame,
: But not me. Nope, no ones in the position that I’m in.
: I do what I do for the pure bliss of rhymin’.
: I will be at the top,
: Give it all that I got,
: I Have no hope but ill still give it a shot.
: A failure wont even harm me a lot.
: ‘Cuz I’m more determined than ever, a failure just fuels the flame,
: I just don’t care, losing don’t even cause me no shame.
: I gotta lift my head up to stop living in the past,
: Look to the future, damn this, I ain’t gonna be last.
: I will not settle for anything less than number one,
: I will not rest until I get this task done.
: I will keep on going, and damn this ain’t fun
: This war with everybody has only begun.
: So you better watch out, or your soul I will shatter,
: And hand you your butt on a bright, silver platter,
: Even if you’re weak, I don’t care, it don’t matter,
: When I’m through with you, ya’ll be crazier than the mad hatter.
