I was 8 years old when
I came to the realization
I can make this happen
All it's finna take is patience
Seen so many people fail but
I can't follow suit
I can't ever get complacent dog
I gotta move
My uncle offed himself
This life had got the best of him
Since that day I promised
I would do my best for him
I stay in the cut and out the way
I'm on a mission
If I say it I'ma do it, dog
And I'm gon get it
Ain't no mercy for the weak
I could do this in my sleep
We gon put this game on lock
For every time they tried to hide the keys
Yeah, yeah

Wipe em all out if they run with the flow
They know that Young Mitchell doing the most
Numbers don't lie man

Pray to the Lord and I put in the work
First will be last and the last will be first
If you thinking you ahead of me now
