Who me? Who me?
I've been doing this for years yea
I won't stop I won't stop I won't stop I won't stop no
And my dreams, have truly
Knocked me down but I'm still here
And I'm here and I'm here and I'm and I'm here
And I started from bottom, no you can never stop him
They knew I was problem failure wasn't an option
They tried to keep me boxed in, I was already locked in
I took some deals I probably should've passed on like Stockton
Over the years eight one started to feel like Gotham
But I'm back man Batman of rap man I got 'em
Yea
And on this journey there's been hard times
Honestly I ain't been the same since Jerrod died
Man I wish I could see my grandma one more time
And check on Jon Doe and make sure that he's alright
Hardworking yea the grind is at an all high
Muff man I love you bro it's our time
From recording in the garage writing lyrics in cars
Up and down ninety five to Newz crib going hard
Knowing one day it payoff, never needed a day off
Palms to the sky hope we get everything we pray for, I'm gone
I be wanting this so damn bad sometimes I cry
Because I know over night this dream can change my life
And thankful everyone that's on my side
Through it all through the ups and down it's been a hell of a ride
Don't stop yea we keep rolling my nigga just keep going let's go
It's been a hell of a ride
Don't stop yea we keep rolling my nigga just keep going let's go
It's been a hell of a ride
I remember grandma said I wasn't gone be shit, shit well look at me now
And I know the way you are so I don't take it to the heart
But damn Gramps I just hope that you're proud
Cuz you're the reason that I write these songs
You're the reason that I like these drums
You're the reason I hear a beat and tap my feet and bob my head
And do a nice lil hum like
Hmmm hmmm
My first memories of music make me think about you
Hmmm hmmm
Waking up to music you dancing while cleaning the room
Hmmm hmmm
Man if I had to give up anything it wouldn't be the music
When I feel like giving up it always gets me through it
I used to do it for the props but now my kids are why I do it
When I hear my music playing and my sons rapping to it
Man they're the reason that I do it and y'all the reason I go stupid
I use to do it for hoes and then I did it for shows
Then B looked me in the eyes and said Muff this for the dough now let's go
And I been gone every since
It's funny how one change can make a whole lotta sense
Man I can't wait till all this rapping is finally paying my rent
Until then just keep grinding like all the money is spent
And then we blow it like the wind
Record then go to sleep and do the same thing again
Wake up and Ball like Jim
Make some hits then lay it down and do the same thing again
It's just the cycle that we end
And I ain't never been washed so fuck it just let it spin
Tell the DJ run it back and play this shit again
Tell the DJ run it back and play this shit again
I be wanting this so damn bad sometimes I cry
Because I know over night this dream can change my life




And thankful everyone that's on my side
Through it all through the ups and down it's been a hell of a ride

The first verse conveys the artist's determination to continue pursuing his dreams despite setbacks and failures. He mentions starting from the bottom and taking deals he should have passed on, but ultimately remaining committed to his craft.

The chorus reinforces the idea of the artist's journey being a rollercoaster ride, but one that he is committed to seeing through until he achieves success. It highlights the importance of perseverance and a strong support system in the pursuit of dreams.


The use of personal anecdotes and emotions in the lyrics help to make the song relatable to anyone who has struggled with pursuit of a goal, especially in a creative field. The repetition of phrases like "won't stop" and "let's go" in the verses and chorus give the song an anthemic quality, and the use of ad libs and background vocals add depth and texture to the track.
