Lyrics

My mother never told me that life would be this hard Believe me when I tell you baby boy I learned that shit on the job I gave 100% and that wasn't enough 200% and they still wouldn't budge They ain't got a number yet for what I had to give up Worked 5 times as hard to get half as much But I rose to the occasion Because I chose to be among the great ones I'm the best (I'm the best) I'm the best (I'm best) Funky fresh in the flesh Never settle for less I'm the best I'm the best (I'm the best) I'm the best (I'm best) Funky fresh in the flesh Never settle for less I'm the best Everybody in the building I only want to see you have a good time Everybody in the building Now I don't care what they say about me Because rules were meant to be broken That's why the world can't forget about me Because rules were meant to be broken They say Will you ever change Oh no Stay in your lane On no Shaking up the game Oh yeah Because rules were meant to be broken I heard some people say some things to me When I was a little kid They would always try to get me to listen And I'm so happy I never did They said I'd never be shit Never be rich, never be that, I'll never be this I'll never be living the life I envisioned that I would live But look at me now I'm so blessed, I'm so proud I'm so crisp, I'm so loud, I'm so fresh and I love it Imagine those times I was lost and now I'm found Told myself I would rise, here I is, I've done it What do you think of those people that doubted me Thought I would be nothing and counted me out How do you think they reacted about me Finally making it out of the crowd Ya'll molded, ya'll crunchy, scratch that neck Talk to the hand I'm going I'm hustling I'm still the man But I rose to the occasion Because I chose to be among the great ones I'm the best (I'm the best) I'm the best (I'm best) Funky fresh in the flesh Never settle for less I'm the best I'm the best (I'm the best) I'm the best (I'm best) Funky fresh in the flesh Never settle for less I'm the best Everybody in the building I only want to see you have a good time Everybody in the building
