Intro:

Yeah… built off the lessons…

From the greats to the struggles…

Now it’s my turn.

⸻

Verse 1:

Came up in the struggle where the hunger was deep,

Built my grind off the hustle, now I’m earning my seat.

I’m like Nas with the stories, every word paint the scene,

But I move like Hov quiet, building wealth in between.

Biggie gave me the bounce, Pac taught me the fight,

Mobb Deep with the hunger, dark days to the light.

I’m a purist with the pen, like Rakim in his prime,

Every bar heavy weight, ain’t no filler in line.

Fab with the punch, Cole with the soul in my reach,

Wu-Tang with the code, I let the lessons all teach.

I’m not Drake with the pop, but I still got the streams,

Turning nights into goals, manifesting the dreams.

Jay showed me the game, but I’m writing my own,

L stacked in the lab, every rhyme like a stone.

Respect to the legends, but I sharpen my tone,

When they mention top spitters, put my name in that zone.

⸻

Hook:

I learned from the beef, but I move with the peace,

Took notes from the legends, every bar’s a release.

From the fights to the wins, I absorbed what they teach,

Now I’m writing my story, put my name in reach.

⸻

Verse 2:

I study every battle, every headline they write,

Drake and Kendrick threw shots, turned the booth to a fight.

One called it the “Big Three,” the other said “just me,”

I saw kings clash crowns, but the throne stays free.

Cole jumped in the ring, dropped a seven-minute heat,

Then he doubled right back, pulled his pride off the beat.

That’s wisdom in motion, knowing peace got worth,

Sometimes the strongest move is to preserve your turf.

I’m a hustler with the pen, like Jay with a plan,

Lyrical purist, every bar built to withstand.

Pac gave me the fight, Big showed me the glow,

Rakim taught the science, Fab taught me to show.

I don’t rap for the gossip, I don’t feed off the beef,

I just sharpen my craft till my blade cut deep.

Respect to the legends, I absorb what they teach,

But the story that I write put my name in reach.

⸻

Hook (repeat):

I learned from the beef, but I move with the peace,

Took notes from the legends, every bar’s a release.

From the fights to the wins, I absorbed what they teach,

Now I’m writing my story, put my name in reach.

⸻

Outro:

Yeah… lessons turn to legacy…

Every bar built to last…

My name in reach.
