take it back to like 2010
prepping that first show with the skeem
all our reps hanging on the line
just a dollar and a dream
started that year solo-dolo
ended that year with a team
started outside looking in
ended that year with our own scene
i was dealing' with some shit then
maybe someday i'll air it all out
think i only broke down once though
i don't really let my guard down
i ain't get a lot of z's back then
we were grindin' on a lot of fronts
i ain't where i wanna be yet
everything we did was for the dream man
that was way before the music paid me
that was way before these people knew me
that was way before they needed savin'
i got no respect for entitlement
i got no time for the lazy
whatchu know about going door-to-door
tryna get your music out?
we were skippin' class tryna spread this shit word of mouth
you just see the doors that we open
don't nobody make it rapping out of our town
yeah we came up outta area 51
yeah we came up outta area five-one-seven
we were made out in area 51"
