42 - Sixteen (rap)

18 4 3
                                    

Sixteen weak shit

Sixteen wishing

Sixteen thinking...

Of all the things I could be


Stuck in class

Lost in glass

Aiming for brass

Should be a-class

But content with counterfeit

'cause I never see it fit

To give my all and grit

Just so scared of it

Failure and his shit.

So I'm stuck in class

I really wanna get out fast

Spill lesson from past

And spit bars that outlast

Because I said in grade 11

When I started my rebelling

That I wanna bust a rhyme

That's stands the test of time

But I get caught up in this life

Find myself trying to dive

Into mediocrity

Doing mediocre shit

That's not my blood's heat

I want people off seats

When I share poetic bits

Because I wanna be the greatest

Don't wanna be a grave best

Don't wanna be like anyone

I wanna be the daring one

Wanna blaze my own path

Pioneer like the human torch

Strike fear in 'em like the thing

Intimidation is hard to brush

Watch as their jealous gush

Because I'm just too me

I'm just unique

Their futures

Too bleak

Mine

Rich quick...

But not rich in zeros

More like rich like heros

Stacking up lives saved

Saving souls depraved

Remembering nights I prayed

For God to ensure I slayed

Because I've come a long way

To carve my own... damn... way.
