All I Have

Lyrics

[Verse 1] All I ever wanted was somebody to hear me And all I ever wanted was somebody to feel me And everybody wanna tell me that I'm out of my head when I'm on the mic, that's fine, but that don't scare me It's been a long time, but I'm back now Rap out, welcome to the rap house Rap out, wanna live 'til I pass out Black out, black out Everybody keep on wondering if I still rap now, are you serious? Anybody out there hearing this? Yo, I came in the game as a lyricist And I'ma leave like that, period You sniff lines, I write lines You've now entered in my mind And you better get ready 'cause you might find I'm from a different place, and my kind Is a little bit different than yours is Quit snoring, hip-hop isn't dead It's just been in mourning from the moment I quit recording Quick, record this Listen, I'm warming up and you're misinformed if You think that I'm slipping up, this ain't sick enough, then I'll skip the chorus I've been here, ain't nobody heard of me? Yeah, I'ma turn this beat to a murder scene I don't live for the world I live for the King, I live for the King, focus Wrote this with emotion It's hard to get a break when the doors ain't open It's hard to get a shot when the gun ain't loaded And it's hard to make a living when nobody wanna notice, hold it What am I, insane? Maybe plain crazy? You put me in a room with a mic, you will not restrain me You do what you wanna, but you can't contain me, lazy Is not a character trait of mine, don't wait in line This is the current condition of my state of mind [Chorus] Don't tell me that this isn't real Don't tell me this ain't how I feel This is all I have, all I have [Verse 2] All I ever wanted was somebody to get this All I ever wanted was somebody to play this Yeah, take my song, put it on a playlist And get goosebumps every time they play it, rate us If it's my calling or not, Father, maybe I should just not bother Go back to that nine-to-five, but I am not a Quitter, so quit that I never been a killer, but I guarantee I kill tracks Put 'em in a coffin, lost it, rip that Tryna make an impact in rap, is that insane? Well, I guess so Rap though, better give me that pencil And you ain't ever gonna make it, it's all mental I am in a place where I can't let go, ah! I still work a job and do this And y'all know what's stupid? I thought all you had to do was get a record deal and your things start moving But that's not the case, because most the time, the artist you hear You keep on thinking that artist is new, but that artist has prolly been at it for years Yeah, in the back of my mind thinking Am I wasting my time dreaming? And I ain't got no money in my wallet, but I guarantee there ain't no way that I am gonna leave this I need this, I swear to y'all, I need this And this hip-hop's in my veins, if you cut me, I'ma bleed it And, yo, what you think I write raps for? No reason? No Take my pain and I put 'em in a song Ever since them pills, they took my mom (Yeah) I've been a different person Don't try to predict my verses What you're hearing now is me Whether I'm in front or behind that curtain I stand behind these words and I'm a Christian, but I'm not perfect Don't tell me to calm down, I'm calm now Listen, I'm just working Yeah, it might take a minute to get it, but once you get it, everything will be crystal clear I don't think they see my vision here I don't think they see my vision here [Chorus] Don't tell me that this isn't real Don't tell me this ain't how I feel (Oh) This is all I have, all I have (Oh, oh) Don't tell me that this isn't real Don't tell me this ain't how I feel (Oh) This is all I have, all I have (Oh yeah) Don't tell me that this isn't real Don't tell me this ain't how I feel (Oh, oh, yeah) This is all I have, all I have, all I have Don't tell me that this isn't real This isn't real, this isn't real (Don't tell me this ain't how I feel) This is all that I have, this is all that I have
