[00:00.020] I'mma ho, whole word on hold
[00:02.880] The crowd is like "ho!", operator's like "hold"
[00:05.950] Man, now ain't that cold?
[00:08.340] I'm just trying to talk to my homie, that's something to hold
[00:11.030] Homegirl ain't trying to be a hole, even though she on a pole
[00:14.340] Can she get a second chance? NO!
[00:16.750] Whoa! Like the opposite of gold
[00:19.440] That's how it's supposed to be: a butterfly
[00:21.940] For the sake of rhyming let's just say "butterflyee"
[00:24.680] The truth stings like Muhammad Ali
[00:28.020] I tell 'em tell 'em don't homocide me
[00:30.350] I just a little old hope with his back against the ropes
[00:33.330] Fighting for his fans and, fighting for his folks
[00:35.940] But the boo's from the crowd they become so loud
[00:38.710] If I could block em out then, I could knock em out then
[00:41.780] Dance around the ring, but until then I'll say
[00:44.150] I'mma keep it cool, and I'mma do me
[00:46.260] It is what it is and that's how it's gon' be
[00:49.040] Until I get there
[00:51.790] Until I get there
[00:55.010] And yeah I got flaws, I know I'm not perfect
[00:57.410] But all ups and downs, will soon be worth it
[01:00.270] When I get there
[01:02.890] When I get there
[01:06.290] "Doctor doctor please! The fame ain't painless enough"
[01:09.180] That's cause you ain't famous enough
[01:11.880] You got a little game, but your name ain't ringing enough
[01:15.770] He said "take 2 of these and put change in my cup"
[01:18.020] I said I wasn't poor, he gave me some more
[01:20.320] Grabbed me a publicist and pointed me to the door
[01:23.170] "Out!" Ouch.. I'm telling you this all from a therapist's couch
[01:28.670] "Tell me about your mother? What she's all about?"
[01:31.370] Prescribed me an interview and then told me to bounce
[01:34.110] Damn..geez. The world is so cold, I'm glad I bought these skis
[01:39.770] Went right off of the bunny sloped and right into the trees
[01:42.850] Went unconscious, they rushed me to a concert
[01:45.360] Instead of green jello, they made me chicken soup
[01:47.780] They fed me magazine covers and video shoots
[01:50.670] I'mma keep it cool, and I'mma do me
[01:52.710] It is what it is and that's how it's gon' be
[01:55.460] Until I get there
[01:58.220] Until I get there
[02:01.570] And yeah I got flaws, I know I'm not perfect
[02:03.720] But all ups and downs, will soon be worth it
[02:06.550] When I get there
[02:09.290] When I get there
[02:12.720] And when I finally make it, I'mma stunt so hard
[02:15.490] Evil as Knievel, I'mma jump so far
[02:18.240] Way up in the atmosphere, I ain't coming back
[02:20.880] Be a jerk to these jerks, yeah that'll make em hurt
[02:23.730] Huh? Instead of young boy in the mirror
[02:26.550] A young version of me, so I started to tear up
[02:29.170] He said "you need to cheer up, your mind need to clear up
[02:31.960] You're already here, just be yourself in mirror"
[02:33.350] Then he disappeared and I felt something familiar
[02:37.070] Something I was taught, something I had lost
[02:39.770] If you are afraid, the fear that you gon' change some
[02:42.830] All you gotta do is just remember where you came from
[02:45.890] I'mma keep it cool, and I'mma do me
[02:47.570] It is what it is and that's how it's gon' be
[02:50.200] Until I get there
[02:53.200] Until I get there
[02:56.360] And yeah I got flaws, I know I'm not perfect
[02:58.670] But all ups and downs, will soon be worth it
[03:01.430] When I get there
[03:04.140] When I get there
