In the Running

Seven years coming

Yeah

Mmm

In the running

Yeah

I would say I'm into running

It's been seven years comin'

I tormented that Fruity Loops and turned it into something

It was built from really nothing

Like a building out the wind

Got a twenty dollar mic

Trust me, eBay is your friend

But really there's no one but kin

Could tell you where I've always been

And trust me, where I am at now

Was never bought up or pretend

Let's begin

I'll tell you how this whole thing happened

Talk my talk and walk the walk

And follow through with action

Call me pretty boy, but now you know that I'm not actin'

Was always in my own world

Up until the class end

Back then, wasn't into fractions

Ask me what I wanted to be

Would never have told you rappin'

Funny, who knew what I wanted to do

I was no joke, I had something to prove

I'm in the running and making my moves

This is a game I'm not willing to lose

Funny, who knew what I wanted to do

I was no joke, I had something to prove

I'm in the running and making my moves

This is a game I'm not willing to lose

I am not willing to lose

I'm killing to prove

Now I'm spilling the truth

I don't got time for this shit anymore

But somehow, I am still in the booth

Feeling the groove, filling these shoes

Addiction, it's so thrilling to do

But now it's so complicated

Wanna go back to when it was just chilling and cruise

No rules, only freestyle and pass that

I just take my time while everyone is on the fast track

Always bet the other way, that's money on the Nasdaq

And I don't them S's 'cause I know I'll get my cash back

Fat stacks, I capitalize on what they doubtin'

Always knew I had to stay quiet when they was shoutin'

Still in the building phase of my castle up on the mountain

Countin' every single brick till it's built

Now it's stable, it don't tilt

Every track that I have killed

Yeah, I'm in my bedroom still

I don't give a shit, for real

Only do this 'cause I love it

Give a fuck 'bout how you feel

And like I said back in the day

This is my drug, I need my fill

Funny, who knew what I wanted to do

I was no joke, I had something to prove

I'm in the running and making my moves

This is a game I'm not willing to lose

Funny, who knew what I wanted to do

I was no joke, I had something to prove

I'm in the running and making my moves

This is a game I'm not willing to lose

Funny, who knew what I wanted to do

I was no joke, I had something to prove

I'm in the running and making my moves

This is a game I'm not willing to lose

Funny, who knew what I wanted to do

I was no joke, I had something to prove

I'm in the running and making my moves

This is a game I'm not willing to lose
