Ay, uh
I'm putting numbers on the board
and blowing more digits
I haven't started, man,
these are just the be fore pictures
Shout out my parents,
my mother gave birth to four winners
All of the players in the game,
it's always cold benches
Been in the studio,
I forgot how to sleep
Not tryna make an album
they forget 'bout in a week
They said the fruit never
gong fall far from the tree
I used to be the kid,
now the kids wanna be me
Tripping 'bout my future like way before
there was cameras
Hella plans on my calendar 'fore
I went all professional
Less souls to trust,
man, these people making me cynical
More copycats and less
people sounding original
Same destination,
we just took different routes
Fuck being one the greatest,
I'm tryna be the greatest one
I ain't saying I ain't grateful for
everything I've become
But the throne is more comfortable than
this chair I'm sitting on
My name is Brian,
cold bars is what I'm known for
If my vision is scaring me,
then I don't go for it
'Member my first days here
when it was all foreign
Now I'm on TV with James
Corden, that shit was crazy
Just got a place with a backyard,
I feel amazing
Nothing can get between me and
the dreams I'm chasing
Ain't got the time for partyin',
no more getting wasted
Unless you got the 1942, man,
then get the chaser
You hating on me, but you know I gotta
You big in your city,
I'm the king of a continent
These rappers tryna make
the trending topic
Why the state of music
going south?
But I don't even want to
talk about it
Let's talk about it, nah,
let's talk about it
Before all these folks decide it's cool
to give a fuck about it
Everyone's tryna make hits,
I'm just tryna make music
You know, the kind that makes
you feel when you listen to it?
I'm the youngest child,
I don't need more attention
You writ ing some bullshit,
I write the lyrics meant for the captions
I'm making songs that'll probably
outlive us for generations
Started off as the sailor,
look at me, now I'm the captain
I won't lie, this shit is fun
Tell these Asian kids they could
do what they want
Might steal the mic at the GRAMMYs just
to say we won
That everyone can make it, don't
matter where you from
Can't forget about the
day that Sean called me
Talking 'bout a vision called
88 that he's dreaming
Man, I love him like a brother,
if we fall, we gon' recover
Just a man with a vision who mastered in causing
trouble (you can't see)
Man, I can't see the finish line
Fall back, fall back,
I ain't fucking 'round this time (anymore)
Did God know he created a legend
in '99? (anymore)
Fuck pretending on a track,
man, I mean every single line
Touched down, never holding back Shining like
some bustdown, sailing
'round without a map
Been a underdog,
now it's time to let me quarterback
Killing shit in uncharted territories,
man this shit get hella gory
Whole country of people proud,
so I'm never worried
Glad you're sitting through the credits,
man, this is my story
The type of shit that make me
cry when I record it
This the type of shit that still gong make
me cry even when I'm 40
R.I.P. Nipsey, R.I.P. Mac
These inspirations always gong
motivate me to rap
Let's celebrate their lives and the people
that they impact
The marathon continues,
ain't no way we looking back
Amazon Prime flow,
you know I'll always deliver
We crossed oceans for a chance just
to feel something better
Generations to sacrifice,
that we'll always remember
It's that circle of life shit,
they hold me up like I'm Simba
They told me I ain't welcome, I'm here to stay,
and my visa says so
Just wait and see who's songs they
gon' blast up in they headphones
Come back like every couple years
to destroy like tornadoes
Victorious tropical flow coming
straight from Indo'
These plants only grow to just
get cut and disposed
Their spotlight is dimming,
my future's so bright that it glows
You want the blueprint for impossible,
I'll let it show
Remember when Pac said,
"The concrete grows a rose"
Rich Brian
