I'm out to be the best me that I can be
Working on my craft day in and out
You know that's what I'm about
No I'm not aiming to become famous
I just want to play and sing this
The only competition I see is myself
I gotta tunnel vision kinda like a telescope
And I'm looking at
And I'm picking at
Everything that I could do to become better
I see a lot of people
I hear a lot of things
They're talking about diamond rings money things
I guess that happens when you hit the top
Become unsatisfied with everything that you already got
You say it's all about the music
But mess around with girls who do it
Yah you lie to your fans
I'm singing from my shadow you can call that shade
My verse is straight and my flow is hard
I paint my songs like a work of art
I never grew up listening to other stuff
You can say I'm kinda different maybe just a bluff
But lemme tell you I am 100 percent reality authentic I ain't dancing in a fantasy
Only sea that I'll be dancing in
Is a sea of fans
In a sold out MSG
Maybe a year or two
Maybe a year or three
It doesn't phase me honestly
Even if I don't make it by then
I'll still be doing shows so I make it in the end, yeah
And if you think I'm irrelevant
Well then I must be relevant
'Cause you took the time to listen to my song that I wrote on my bed in my bedroom
I don't sing for a backtrack
I write songs in my snapback
I don't care what they say
I'm keeping it real
Kinda like an a Capella
I don't hook up with strangers
I've got class and respect
I don't care what they say
I'm keeping it real
Kinda like an a Capella
A capella, a-a capella
A capella, a-a capella
A capella, a-a capella
Keeping it real kinda like an a Capella
Sometimes I need to focus on myself and what I need
Sometimes I feel like my mind is on it's own kind of speed
But I guess its the way that it goes when you try to write like a beast
This is my feast
Don't ever classify me as a rapper
I spit a little bit and I can talk fast but that's it
I ain't about the gold chains
Ain't about the fake girls
Ain't about the high life
Ain't about the money
See my lyrics are different
They come alive the minute I start sing them
I would say that I put my soul all up in them
But I am a ginger you know how that goes
My world comes together the moment my pen hits the paper like I'm a jail breaker
But I have committed no crime to be charged for
You see me in bars but don't know what I stand for
I don't sing for a backtrack
I write songs in my snapback
I don't care what they say
I'm keeping it real
Kinda like an a Capella
I don't hook up with strangers
I've got class and respect
I don't care what they say
I'm keeping it real
Kinda like an a Capella
A capella, a-a capella
A capella, a-a capella
A capella, a-a capella
Keeping it real kinda like an a Capella, wait..
My finger bleed when I pluck strings
I was never raised to play this guitar with a pick thing
At times people say I sound British when I say things
When I say things
Say things
Now they coming to me
Asking if I wanna be the next big thing
I'm the next best thing buddy
You better get your facts straight
I don't need a record label to show them my talent great 'cause
If the people like it then the people buy it
Why would I wanna hire another writer to take it higher
Foolish like the gold that you place in my hands
'Cause that's fool's gold
And I'm not fooled by this fame game
This twitter game, it's so lame
'Cause I'm verified on the inside
Don't need a blue check to be satisfied, ah
Break strings when I play this take names, when I play this take notes, when I play this
Break strings when I play this take names, when I play this take notes, when I play this
Break strings when I play this take names, when I play this take notes, when I play this
Break strings when I play this take names, when I play this take notes, when I play this
You already know
I don't sing for a backtrack
I write songs in my snapback
And I don't care what they say
I'm keeping it real kinda like an a Capella
I don't hook up with strangers
I've got class and respect
And I don't care what they say
And I don't care what they say
'Cause I'm keeping it real
Keeping it real kinda like an a Capella
