What Im About by SC Static Lyrics
What I’m About Lyrics
(Verse 1)
I ain’t from the inner city or the bottom of the slums
I ain’t gang affiliated with the violence and the guns
I come from an environment reliant on the drugs
Where my rhymin’ was united with the silence of the drums
I’ve dealt with malevolence and developed an immunity
To negativity, hatred, and everything they threw at me
I overcame distractions when they tried to prevent me
And found a way to beat the system when the odds were against me
I’m a monstrous MC, I could prosper if meant be
If I could just defeat the jealousy and conquer the envy
In a world where everybody’s got ulterior motives
Their own selfish ambitions don’t wanna see that I’m focused
I appear to be hopeless, striving the thrive from my troubles
I’m designed for the rhymin’ while I’m aligning my knuckles
I’m the type to knock the ball loose and then dive on the fumble
Because every time that I struggle, it reminds me to hustle
(Chorus x2)
From the moment that you heard me you’ve been running your mouth
And since I came into the game receiving nothing but doubt
Tryna put a stop to my reign like the sun in a drought
But this is who I am sucker, this is what I’m about
(Verse 2)
Yo I’ve been chasing popularity and possibly the fame and glory
Mimicking the images my artistry has painted for me
Passing all the nonbelievers, constantly they’ve hated on me
Moving at a steady pace but I can feel them gaining on me
So I became the beast this environment made me
Until they labeled me as insane and defined me as crazy
Then I unleashed the alter ego that this rhymin’ has gave me
And broke the shackles of these pessimists who try to contain me
So I gotta keep it moving cause there’s pencils that I gotta leak
Gotta find the hardest instrumentals and the hottest beats
I got many lessons and credentials that I gotta teach
I got aspirations and potentials that I gotta reach
Had to give off a fearless and hopeful demeanor
Had to show I’ve grown as a speaker my poems are deeper
Gotta limit smoking the reefer, be sober and cleaner
Cause I wanna be known as a leader and overachiever
(Chorus x2)
From the moment that you heard me you’ve been running your mouth
And since I came into the game receiving nothing but doubt
Tryna put a stop to my reign like the sun in a drought
But this is who I am sucker, this is what I’m about
(Verse 3)
Yo I’ve been writing on the paper quick, cyphering and making hits
Biting all you plagiarists and fighting for a place to get
So whether I’m in the booth with the mic or on the stage with it
I’ll tightly be embracing it cause life is what you make of it
I’m wrecking instrumentals with exceptional speech
Through steady preservation I’m never accepting defeat
Until I reach the pinnacle where I was destined to peak
And never surrender until my clever objective’s complete
(Bridge)
This is music to my ears I just gotta become it
I’ve been doing this for years, never profited from it
I’ve been writing isolated like I’m locked in a dungeon
I’m motivated to make it and I ain’t stoppin’ at nothin’
(Verse 1)
I ain’t from the inner city or the bottom of the slums
I ain’t gang affiliated with the violence and the guns
I come from an environment reliant on the drugs
Where my rhymin’ was united with the silence of the drums

To negativity, hatred, and everything they threw at me
