with every ounce of my blood
with every breath in my lungs
won't stop until i'm phe-no-menal
however long that it takes
i'll go to whatever lengths
it's gonna make me a monster though
cause i'm born to be phenomenal
unpoppable thought bubbles
fuckin' juggernaut that'll
obstacles i'm drawn to 'em
some of what i done fought through was the worst
who the fuck taught you how to persevere?
there ain't no situation that you ever had to respond to that's adverse
the messiest thing you've ever gone through was your purse
gotta keep growin' with it
cause you can keep throwin' shit at the wall
but you're gonna find that nothing's gonna stick until you apply yourself
time to slip in that zone till' i find myself
inside the realm of the unknown and boldly go
into waters where nobody else has gone before
sometimes i gotta remind myself that i am. i am phenomenal
with every ounce of my blood
with every breath in my lungs
won't stop until i'm phe-no-menal
however long that it takes
i'll go to whatever lengths
it's gonna make me a monster though
cause i'm born to be phenomenal
when you're down and they're tryin' to clown the fuck out of you
and you feel like you're runnin' out of fuel
i'll show you how to use doubt as fuel
convert it to gunpowder too
now what you do is put the match to the charcoal fluid
put the spark to it like martha stewart barbecuing
feel like you want to hit that wall then do it
now you gon' take that rage and make that what you wage
never take back what you say
if you stay strapped in your brain
engaged in a steel cage match
take your fists and just ball it
show who's big and who's smallest you're christopher wallace
now picture 'em all as plastic and foam
where you put your dinner plates at
and set it on 'em like a placemat
and i want you to say that
with every ounce of my blood
with every breath in my lungs
won't stop until i'm phe-no-menal
however long that it takes
i'll go to whatever lengths
it's gonna make me a monster though
cause i'm born to be phenomenal
step into the unknown and find yourself
got a fuckin' mouth with no shut-off valve
can't even cut off power to it
me to come up out from under the fuckin' ground
cause i worked my butt off now
it's a subject that i don't know how to shut up about
like a motherfucking tongue thats how
i responded when i got shoved around
you're gonna have non-believers
but when you're beyond belief
you probably shouldn't wonder how
but are you prepared to give more than you get?
and put in twice what you get back from this shit
though what you sacrifice barely is half
but it's like my shield at the same time i wield and my knife is will
sometimes i feel just like b. real from cypress hill
how i can just kill a cypher
i rhyme like life is still an uphill climb
ready to face any challenge
the only thing i'm capable of makin' is amazing
only thing you're capable of makin' is a false statement
or accusation. i am legendary status
that is the only way you'll ever be able to say
your legend is makin' an allegation
same hand i hold the mic with
managed to prove who the best man is
be the only ones left standing
but i ain't gonna be the only one with the advantage
of knowing what it's like to be southpaw
cause you can bet your ass you'll be left handed
with every ounce of my blood
with every breath in my lungs
won't stop until i'm phe-no-menal
however long that it takes
i'll go to whatever lengths
it's gonna make me a monster though
cause i'm born to be phenomenal
