Rap Game Underdogs lyrics

[Intro]
'Bout time I said it for the record

[Verse]
Yeah, I'm the best rapper you never heard
I bet you hang on every word
Play my sh*t or hate on my sh*t
But you can't do both, it gets on my nerves
I don't really want to be this way
I'm too grounded to be this c*cky
If you had half the amount of doubters turn into riders
You'd be feeling like Rocky too
Real talk now, no telling me I haven't paid my dues
Cash coming in but it don't mean a damn thing
'Til I make enough I can pay my dudes
Talk about pressure
Couple of my best friends up and moved to the west coast with nothing
Nothing but a dream and the confidence in me
One day, I would make it all worth something
How could I not rap my ass off? I'm all in for this team
I turned down 'bout like 50k 'cause I know I gotta chase this dream
I ain't even blink twice when I told 'em
I ain't even think twice about that
Couldn't even break the news to my dad though
I ain't wanna be the one to break his back
But I gotta live though, got a story to tell
Can't look back on the what if's
But if I don't make it into the rap game
I'ma just be another cat that couldn't cut it, f*ck it
Money in the budget, gold on the pages
Hide the man for me to rip these stages
You can't tell me nothing
[Chorus]
I been on that no sleep and that go hard
Ain't nobody stopping my shine
Had a lot of late nights with my headphones
And a lot of bullsh*t on my mind
Had my head down and my grind on
Lotta people telling me that I'ma be the one
But I never really looked up 'til just now
Finally hitting me how far we've come

[Post-Chorus]
Rap game underdogs, never got no love from blogs, self-made
Told me quit the music, get a real job
Don't look now, I'm self-paid
Rap game underdogs, rap game, rap game underdogs
Rap game underdogs
My team put work in, now lift that curtain

[Chorus]
I been on that no sleep and that go hard
Ain't nobody stopping my shine
Had a lot of late nights with my headphones
And a lot of bullsh*t on my mind
Had my head down and my grind on
Lotta people telling me that I'ma be the one
But I never really looked up 'til just now
Finally hitting me how far we've come
[Outro]
Rap game underdogs, rap game underdogs, rap game underdogs
Rap game underdogs, rap game rap game rap game underdogs
My team put work in, now lift that curtain
