I had to do it Mr. Ross
I had to

I am the man so proud I am
Came here as a boy, staying here as a man
People they don't get it, try to see it if you can
Livin' in la la land ain't all that bad
because...

I'm the biggest grinder that you've seen thus far [x4]
Want to look for me my [bad word] 
You can look up at the stars

I tap dance on the cloud like I'm Savion Brother
In tune with my roots like the Reading Rainbow [bad word] 
I'm here to give the kids new li-ter-ature 
I am the cure to the wack juice over flow
Gettin' a new beat, recycle' there old flows
What were they thinkin' when they wrote it
The Lord knows, but I suppose raps hungry hungry hippos
Decided to look over KiD CuDi with the glow
Cool beans though, 10 deep jeans hoes
Stampede [bad word]  in the Range with a knitted
No gimmick, real time, real heart, real words, elegant, a piece of art

I never be retro or like a cool kid
With only two songs, look at what I did
No famous name vouch and I'm still the [bad word]  [bad word]  first couple songs, no guest appearances
No big names, no big chains
Just Plain Pat visions with some sick aim
Now you sick man'e, I ain't taking stabs
I'm just taking names then I'm kickin' [bad word] 

Me & my [bad word] Wale let them suckas pass
Until we fed up & wed up
Where niggas keep they swag to the heart [bad word] niggas hopes for success
After Lebron, I'm what's next

Next, next... to pass the baton of success
I pass an event, hoes seem to forget
My only cash flow was from bape
Now these hoes can't stunt pictures of my face
Cuz they know

I'm the biggest grinder that you've seen thus far [x4]
Want to look for me my [bad word] 
You can look up at the stars

I am the man so proud I am
Came here as a boy, staying here as a man
People they don't get it, try to see it if you can
Livin' in la la land ain't all that bad
because...

I'm the biggest grinder that you've seen thus far [x4]
Want to look for me my [bad word]
