Look You should see how long it took to get here Product of a million different choices that were sincere Made it to LA to find out that ain't nobody have no sense here Probably wouldn't stay if not for Dre Either way I love the bay, but it was time for me to leave it Barely off the floor and felt like I had hit the ceiling I spent most of my best days trying to chase a feeling To find out it was fleeting I was dying every weekend I'm diving off the deep end I wanna be the greatest Swimming with the sharks now my ego is inflated I got a couple friends back home that treat me like I'm famous I hate it but I shouldn't be complaining See I been scared of leadership I'm learning to embrace it My cousin she look up to me I try and teach her patience I wanna tell her everything, I gotta practice what I preach though It's shit I gotta let her learn as she goes Look how I've grown, I'm not what I used to be And I won't fold, 'cause all of my roots run deep And I got, I got this feeling that run down my spine That I'm ready for whatever comes next, so I'm just taking my time I'm bout to push it to the limit A lot of folks could I wanna be the one who did it, that's word to mama I'm infinite I'm finna be something greater than piles of green paper and pictures that I've taken I'm fresh in the fourth quarter and I can see them they're fading This is where the good and the great get separated I been so close, so long that I can taste it I just wanna feel like I earned me the celebration Science of Logic in the fly shit that I kick I spit the timeless shit that make your mind split My shit designed divine I can't hide it This little light of mine, oh, I'm shining I know that where ever it's at where you can find it The rest all timing that's why I'm gliding Pack light the flow might capsize the boat That's why I float the key is to stay grounded Look how I've grown, I'm not what I used to be And I won't fold, 'cause all of my roots run deep And I got, I got this feeling that run down my spine That I'm ready for whatever comes next, so I'm just taking my time I gotta tell you I'm fine 'Cause I don't have the heart to say what's on my mind It's nothing left to say that can change my mind I wanna take my time but can't break my stride So if you love me then let me know But if you don't you better let me go The first son shine gotta let me grow Just me grow, or let me go 'Cause I've been too close to call it Standing on the edge and I just might fall in Whole lotta times that I thought bout calling Knowing it ain't promised I'ma make it to morning And all I am, what I know now And all I ask is that you hold me down I'm on my way, I'm almost there Just don't look back I swear we almost there
