Either you play the game or let the game play you and be that broke sucka talkin bout I stayed true

I want to be like Bruce Springsteen or something, making songs that are relevant.

I was just a goofy little funny kid, who was always getting sent to the principal. It wasn't serious because I was smart. I wasn't like a true troublemaker, just rambunctious - like, talkative and trying to be funny. That was me in middle-school.

Sold my soul to Satan. I've been dancing with the devil. So when you get to hell you can say you know me. I'm easily attracted by the dark side. Devil keep following.

In my mind, New York was the place where they had the underground rap shows and I could get in on some ciphers and just rap. This whole fantasy world I had created in my head about New York just from listening to the music my whole life, like, I'ma go up there and do that. But when I came up here, there was none of that, that scene was dead.

You hate it before you played it. I already forgave ya.

Keep grindin' boy, your life can change in one year, And even when it's dark out, the sun is shining somewhere
