Make It
Rocom Lyrics

I'm gonna make it as long as I base it off the love and not the fame of entertainment
I will succeed as long as I create my music out of love and not for the sake of gaining popularity.

Grab a glass, I got a toast, you gotta raise it
Let's celebrate our success and raise a glass to it.

I build this from the heart
My music is built from my passion and emotion.

And not the goal of being famous
I am not creating music for the sole purpose of gaining fame or recognition.

I'm in a scene that you wouldn't even dreamed of
I am part of a unique music scene that people may not even be aware of.

Did it for the love not the taste of the green stuff
I created my music out of love and passion, not for the sake of making money.

What up, just keeping it real, better over the years
I am staying true to myself and improving with time.

Fresh flow in your ears, so get it clear
My music has a unique and fresh sound, listen closely.

I know the haters get it twisted
I am aware that some people may misunderstand or dislike my music.

Living in the present, everybody call it Christmas
I am living in the moment and enjoying the present, like a holiday celebration.

It's not a business making it my business
Creating music is not just a business for me, it is my passion and personal investment.

Take away your mic like I'm busy eating fish sticks
I am so focused on creating music that even snatching away your microphone would not distract me.

I take the hip shit, chop it up and mix it
I use trendy or popular music styles and blend them creatively in my own music.

Add it to the queue, download it like I'm NetFlix
I am constantly adding to my music library and listening like I would stream shows on Netflix.

Roll in a Lexus, yes I got it paid off
I am financially stable with success from my music and have a paid off luxury car.

Making my art, set it up and watch it take off
I am creating my music and watching it gain popularity and success.

We punk rock, welcoming the chaos
I and my music group embrace disorder and unpredictability like the punk rock genre.

Lifting up spirits when I spit it like a seance
My music uplifts and brings a spiritual experience similar to a seance.

Fuck a job got bars like a boss
I am not concerned with having a regular job when I have a talent for rapping like a boss.

This is mine, I rhyme, and I never take a day off
Creating music is my personal possession and passion that I never take a break from.

In the beginning it started with a couple tapes
I began creating music with a few cassette tapes.

Didn't know what I was dubbing was the start of something great
I did not realize that my early music creations would lead to future success and greatness.

Computer scientist, my mind was in another place
I have a technical background in computer science and my mind was often preoccupied with technicalities.

Thinking about the vinyl I was piling up, up in my crates
I constantly thought about my growing collection of vinyl records.

Hated work, but still learning about the beats and breaks
Despite my dislike for my job, I continued to learn and study music production techniques.

At home in the zone 'til the morning breaks
I am fully immersed in creating music until the early hours of the morning.

Helped me escape a job that I clearly hate
Creating music allowed me to relieve myself from a job that I detested.

Made way into the scene screaming up in peoples face
I fully immersed myself in the music scene and was unafraid to showcase my music to others.

Got into battle raps just to get a little name
I entered rap battles to gain some recognition and popularity for my music.

Got in a couple scraps, came out with a couple scrapes
I got into a few fights during these rap battles and came away with some minor injuries.

Break bread, me and Ill' say the grace
Me and my collaborator, Ill', share a meal and give thanks before eating.

Foundation was the fans that helped form the base
My music is built on the support and enthusiasm of my fans.

Thanks, gotta respect it otherwise gotta pump your breaks
I show gratitude and respect towards my fans, otherwise I may have to draw back from creating music.

They call us weightless, but recognize we heavyweights
Despite being called weightless or insignificant, we are recognized as successful and influential musicians.

Used to serve rappers in and out of every state
I used to offer my music services to rappers in various states.

Now I serve food for thought, better get a bigger plate
My music now offers a deeper and more meaningful message that requires a larger understanding and capacity to comprehend.

Every day's a chance, you gotta take it by the hand
Each day presents an opportunity and we must seize it with vigor.

Live it up, don't waste any breaks on a nap
Enjoy life to the fullest and don't waste any moments on frivolous things.

Understand, this is my rap romance
My music is my romantic passion and completely consuming.

Burn at a turn when my flow slow dance with the beat
I feel a burning passion and emotion when my lyrics and flow perfectly sync with the beat.

Believe, I conjure what I think
I have faith and confidence in my thoughts and creativity.

Reality's seen like a Green Lantern ring
I have a heightened perception of reality that illuminates things like a Green Lantern ring.

Used to play guitar, now I rap and sing
I transitioned from playing the guitar to composing and singing rap music.

So I'm living my dreams like it ain't a damn thing
I am living my dream of creating music without any hesitation or second thought.

Fuck all the people saying that I'd never make it
I disregard anyone who doubted my ability to become a successful musician.

Stuck in the hood drinking, begging with they breath stinkin'
I do not associate with those who are stuck in a life of poverty and desperation.

I'm doing good, good or bad, man, that never changin'
Regardless of my successes or failures, I will always remain true to myself.

No change swingin' just a pocket full of Ben Franklins
I have a stable and significant financial situation with a pocket full of hundred dollar bills.

Time to get this, you never see me hesitating
I am fully committed and take immediate action to pursue my music goals.

Except when I wake up and my mind is busy meditating
I allow myself the time to meditate and focus my thoughts before diving into my music work.

God been good, it's only right, I gotta thank him
I express my gratitude towards God for my success and blessings in life.

Tombstone probably read he made it when he dead and stinkin'
Even after I pass away, my legacy as a successful musician will live on and be remembered.

I'm gonna make it as long as I base it off the love and not the fame of entertainment
I will continue to succeed as long as I create my music out of love and not just for the sake of gaining popularity.

Grab a glass, I got a toast, you gotta raise it
Let's celebrate our success and raise a glass to it.

I build this from the heart
My music is built from my passion and emotion.

And not the goal of being famous
I am not creating music for the sole purpose of gaining fame or recognition.
