[Danny!]
3
And they wonder why niggaz that made it
4
sounds so bitter on the record, why they filled with the hatred
5
Bumpin "The Minstrel Show" six years ago, damn they was sore
6
The critics said the angst, made the casual listeners short
7
Even I was like, "Dag, yo why they rappin so mad?"
8
But now I get it fam, bein overlooked is a drag
9
That's why I take seven years of bein resentful
10
Compose my instrumental, then I drop a classic album on you fags
11
But then... that's when the wack reviews come in
12
When they purposefully deduct a point or two from a ten
13
Like when... you hand in the perfect term paper
14
and the teacher takes away a point for writing in pen
15
It's the same thing cause everybody knows that D. Swain's king
16
but they act like he ain't hearin that he's not entertaining
17
They say he's self-absorbed and only talk about himself
18
Motherfucker I'm a rapper, what the FUCK is you saying?!!
19
It isn't easy bein everybody's secret
20
If underrated is a compliment, then keep it
21
If you support an artist, you should never keep it
22
to yourself and, nobody else (Tired of bein overlooked man, c'mon)
23
Yeah I give you my hits, with a personal twist
24
Put myself on Front St., this the thanks that I get??
25
I get it, you take my life and throw it square at my face
26
I'm only mentioned when you're lookin for a charity case
27
Give me eight and a half stars, hopin I'll disappear
28
A month later, twenty rappers emerge
29
and it's THEM you revere for doin the same shit, I did for years
30
Y'all gon' make me lose my mind, up in here, here, here...
31
Y'all gon' make me lose my mind, up in here, here, here...
32
Ask me would I press rewind? Nigga yeah! Yeah, yeah, yeah...
33
Despite the pain and disappointments I've experienced
34
I still would do it all again, agaaaaaaain...
35
[?uestlove]
36
Ehh, I-I guess I can let this out the bag..
37
{beat changes}
38

39
Yo, we one in the same
40
Went from burnin CD-Rs' now we runnin the game
41
Yo I used to sell these beats for 'bout a month and some change
42
Nonstop, just so I can cop some ones and a chain
43
and a stack of records, cause I'd rather mint these beats
44
So the process sorted like lather, rinse, repeat
45
"Yo it's gotta be more to life," I would say to myself
46
I ain't makin it for my health, man I wanna make a name for myself
47
I name my price and it was scarin 'em
48
So I had to low-ball, rap game was totalitarian
49
Finally found a decent asking price
50
Man it was so rough, I used to sell the same beat twice
51
Almost got my ass beat for that
52
They had a nigga writin everyone's receipt for that
53
Linked up with my nigga Ill Shawn from the gutter
54
We would be up in the studio 'til dawn, motherfucker
55
Makin classics, Shawn was in the zone with the mic
56
I provide 'em with the beats 'til that fateful night
57
I spit a verse, Shawn was like, "I didn't know you could write
58
Stick with me, and I promise you'll be straight for life"
59
After that, he was literally my biggest fan
60
We sold dope in our respective fields, that was the game plan
61
'Til his girl called me, told me that my boy got knocked
62
Drugs found, ratted on by some toy cop
63
They sent him upstate, now I'm back to square one
64
I had to trust fate, take my fuckin snare drums
65
and keep pushin with no days off
66
And Shawn would promise me that everything would soon pay off
67
("One, two, three, four!"
Risking its life for a Squishmallow..😱�...
