The Rap Game by King Mic Lyrics
Hook:
Step by step, heart to heart
Left right left we all fall down, like toy soldiers
Bit by bit, torn apart
We never win, but the battle wages on for toy soldiers
Verse 1:
I had a purpose when i came into this game
Wasn't to start no beef, wasn't to entertain
But to show the kids that are going through tough times
That it does get better and just to enjoy life
Now i, kinda got away from that
I gotta realize man thats what im good at
I dont want no beef, thats not where im here
Just wanna get some things straight, get a few things clear
I came into this game to help my generation out
Now it feels like i just let everyone down
I was tryna be someone im not
I was a Hippocratic king mics a hater that i am not
Heat of the moment got in the studio
Slowly started diggin deep into a hole
I never had no intentions to disrespect
We all out here grindin just tryna get a check
But the truth is it dont matter where you from
We all got a goal and thats to be number 1
This rap game killin me but it gives me life
Finally i got yall callin me king mic
This ain't what im here to do, not here to amuse you
I ain't bullet proof, im just here to tell the truth
Maybe if i knew it wouldve ended up like this
Im disgusted with myself man, i really is
I ain't tryna get nobody in the middle of this
But i had no intention to start all of this
Ain't gonna let it get to me even if i have fame
Man im already fed up with this rap game cuz
Hook:
Verse 2:
There use to be a time when mic could just say a rhyme
And wouldn't have to worry about, people out here tryin
To diss me, its crazy, i use to be
Someone only my cousins and brothers see
Sometimes now i kinda forget that
More people now hearin me on a track
But once i heard that track, i just couldn't hold back
I got so man, so then i snapped
The only reason i was mad was cuz you said i was whack
I put my heart and soul into the records and i hear that?
Especially from someone, who should understand
Cuz we both just tryna make it man
Thought maybe you could relate, maybe appreciate
But i ain't gonna force it on you thats okay
I had some ideas but i got off track
But now im back yeah im back on the track
With the same mind set i had when recording growth
Or the same inspiration as billy hope
And i hope i could make the magic happen again
Wit me rappin in the basement
But imma get better, my jumpshots getter wetter
And im doin big things about to write my fans a letter
Ayo dont change just be yourself
It dont matter if youre poor or if you got wealth
All that matters is how you see yourself
Not about what everyone thinks or yourself
So imma leave it at that, just at that
Im workin im grindin, you gotta respect that
Shoutout to everyone doin what they wanna do
Dont let anyone get in the way of you
You on a mission and you gotta set a goal
And its yours for the taking even if it takes long
Just gotta keep chippin away, and maybe one day
I could make it but for right now im still in the basement
But king mic is back, i swear this is really it
So for everyone thinkin i was gonna diss, heres my diss uh
Hook:
Outro:
Yo, real talk shoutout to everyone thats been with me from day one
You know who yall are
Im in the studio right now, with vinsanity
Ain't that right?
