Born to Win

Lyrics

[Verse 1: protoJ] Yeah! Feel like I've arrived, I'm alive for the first time Feeling like a God on the inside, don't run and hide Stubborn in my ways, but it got me where I wanna be Moved through all the hate, the fakes, and the wannabes Dagger over dome, on the throne of Damocles I'm ready for this life, it's just gotta be a prophecy The sacrifice I made is the only thing that got to me But protoJ been away, on the grind constantly And honestly? Y'all can't even step to mе Practice what I preach, then why is lifе testing me It gets to me I'll give you all that's left of me The best of me And even though I'm selfish see I did for the fam, the fans you understand When I tell you that I can, I'm the man when I stand Houston on my back V-Let on my heart so Welcome to my legacy A motherfucking Starboy [Chorus: NickBeam] So you tryna be famous Tryna be the best rappers Tryna be the ones they after You know you can't go backwards Tryna be the one that's paid Tryna get up on the stage Your image never ever fade Tell me what is your answer [Verse 2: NickBeam] Feeling like everyday is a struggle Some people got it worse while I'm trapped inside of my bubble Of good times, that's shadowed by bad times Above all else, I'm making sure I keep my name up out of trouble Double down on the dream, cuz Beam's a walking come up Never satisfied with mediocrity If ever there was gonna be a prophecy, then logically I would be On the guest list, I feel it in my biology Maybe it's generational I feel impatience in my bones Striving for something that I have never known Ever growing never grown Put thoughts on a metronome Put rap in a strangle hold Stay real 'til I'm dust and bones Ha But for now hard work beats talent And it's become apparent that we found a balance Well it could happen so I gotta stay ready never passive Think you know? Well, you ain't seen a fraction We only grow from action [Chorus: NickBeam] So you tryna be famous Tryna be the best rappers Tryna be the ones they after You know you can't go backwards Tryna be the one that's paid Tryna get up on the stage Your image never ever fade Tell me what is your answer
