Slow Start by Ray Rife Lyrics
Uh
Throwed Coalition
Yea
Just a lil vent, light one
Explaining a few frustations I have right now
Yo
Uh
The respect will I get it?
When everybody 'round me is a critic?
I'm looking in the mirror tryna reform my spirit
Cause I dropped tracks that didn't get it
So I'm still lifting, til that Karma match me
Steph Curr from the line, my shit is automatic
You sleeping on me, burn ya bed mattress
Why ain't my shit happen?
Am I rushing a promise that's guaranteed?
My impatience discourage me
At times I feel like I'm not the best, even though I know that I am
Conflicting thoughts got my emotions in a monogram, don't understand
Maybe I shouldn't right now, just run the plan
And know it'll work in the end, uh
Shoutout to Drake and Hov on beats I wished I had
Know I gotta prove myself for em first, but the grind is a drag
Even now I'm forced to settle with the remake, but it's smooth
I'll do what I gotta do
And trust sounding like them is not the case
Cause bar for bar I'll have them bench pressing in my prison yard
And I'll be the grimey warden that laughs from afar
Eating caviar with Beyonce and Solange, waiting on Nicki Minaj
I guess, just a part of being an upcoming legend
Nobody knows about your skill but your section
By the time you blow, they'll act like they was there counting down each second
Then question a loyalty we failed to begin with
Who are you niggas?
Tryna shadow my ride, well let me park you niggas
Showing love with your fingers crossed, I'm smart my nigga
I see the shady eye in you Ken Kaniffs
Been backstabbed by the same knife I gave to help defend me with
It's nothing new to me
Niggas I grew up with hardly support me
Not that it's really important
But I thought that they was for me?
When I'm back home, they all supportive
When I'm gone it's another story
And everybody else seemed to forget that I existed
Talking in my absence like I couldn't hear them through the distance
Now they see my light and wanna shine off my mission
But all I see are tainted bonds tryna make amendments
That's why Dreem, Sanny Soze, Cam my truest mans
Ain't hear from no one but them when stuck in my jam
Homies'll say otherwise, try to defend themselves
The fact they'll come to a defense is enough in itself
Remain silent..... The beast sleepin
I let him chill on this one, chest needed deep breathing
I'm getting faded just to wash the pain away
Only to wake up in the morning confused because I feel them again
I take a shot of henny before the alarm goes off
Still sleeping on the one
Then again y'all slept on Cole, Kendrick, Drake, newage golden ones
Took some years for you to notice them
Guess yall need incentive to listen to cats you never heard
I respect that, so being at bat, expected the curve
Home-run nonetheless, soon my words'll roam like private jets
And hold more weight than a pallet jack
At this point I don't care bout anyone or anything that doesn't make me better
No exceptions
That goes for friends, clubs, other rappers, her butt injections, the next election
Don't give a fuck about any of it, if it fails my testing, uh
I'm judging your honor by the choices you garter
No gavel needed you weak and I'm feeding on Jalapeens in a sauna
Between two fat beasts in minks and skullies from Tijuana
Never thirst, gotta hunger problem you see the difference?
Rewind that, see I wasn't just rhyming words it was a metaphor
For me to explain would be hella corn
The difference 'tween me and you, I know what I'm becoming
I'll never reach my goals only hoping to become it....
