Thanks I Appreciate It, Like Really

Lyrics

[Verse 1] How can I be the person that I wanna be When everyone thinks that I'm just another wannabe? I said, "I'ma make it big in rap" And they laughed and said, "What's the possibility of that, huh? Like second to none" But I kept saying that I know it's gonna come Head to my room with a fake mic, nothing can faze me and Pretend I was Jay-Z As I got older, my wordplay evolved Like a Pokemon or whatever it's called It's true you gotta grind just to get what you want 'cause nothing comes free, believe me it don't If you don't got a dream, then why do you sleep? 'cause you tired? I done stayed up for weeks just Perfecting my craft, spitting my [?] In a lyrical form so unbelievers take that [Chorus] Now I'm feeling good 'cause I escalated It's funny 'cause I used to be underrated But now I'm appreciated, thanks I appreciate it, thanks Thanks I appreciate it Girls was playing but now I got 'em saying 'cause it fills up my life Like a star he shines bright Boy, come with me now [Verse 2] Of course I got frustrated 'cause people hated My outcome, or the person that I've become But I didn't stop, I kept on moving I didn't say nothing, I showed 'em by proving That I got a gift that I gotta share next I told you and now I'm on top like sex I'm not being mean but the bottom line is If you got your own business, why you all up in mine? He think he doing something 'cause he know how to write And truthfully I almost gave up one night But life without struggling, yeah sure It only makes you stronger, you gotta endure You get hesitations, march without exclamation And then you start getting impatient But let me tell you something and listen to that When you got a dream, you don't let nobody hold you back [Chorus] Now I'm feeling good 'cause I escalated It's funny 'cause I used to be underrated But now I'm appreciated, thanks I appreciate it, thanks Thanks I appreciate it Girls was playing but now I got 'em saying 'cause it fills up my life Like a star he shines bright Boy, come with me now
