Lyrics Decathlon - Main - Napoleon Da Legend

Head in the clouds with a mic and dream
Looking for the key
Figured it's my right to be freed
From the mundane and normal everyday routine
Doing some heavy lifting
Sometimes I wished they was two me's
In the Me Too era
Abuse of power came to light
That's when the other side
The darker side of fame came to light
Late night full day at work
Sometimes it was a pain to write
I knew i had do it now
One day it would save my life
Occupy Wall Street, workers going on strike
Then I moved to Brooklyn
That's when I met with Sean Price
East New York PF cuttin's crib recorded "Wise Men"
Never before had a legend acknowledged my rhymes then
The grind was constant no time to stop and smell the roses
Sleepless nights
Had to up the dose of Melatonin
The young shonen, I knew had to seize the moment
The real awakening was how to process my emotions
My first interview with Sunez was raw
He brought his whole family up to the third floor
Shot a video for "Wise Men" that shit felt like a movie
"Matrix and Holograms" was driving in a hooptie
"African in New York", "Dancing in the rain"
Thanks to rap can finally, take advantage of the pain
Back then it was team everything with Crazy Al Cayne
Baz, Kev Lawrence C Truth from ThermalSoundWaves
Their idea to do Napoleonic Language and I did it
Not knowing then that everytime I would perform it I would kill it
Dom Perrion connected me with Raekwon
Rode the wave everyday I would just write make songs
Plus learned the game and the industry's ways
Did many radio shows met many DJs
Felt like everybody wanted to have a say in what I did
Terrible advice, when I'm the one that's taking all the risks
Some folks, might have been jealous but, I ain't give shit
I'm giving parts of my life and I got one life to live
Binge drinking at the parties, mad tipsy on stages
Albums full scriptures just riffing on the pages
Many phases, my personality was changing
Many would try to manage me and trynna be persuasive
I tried than I fired them, my buzz was getting higher then
Bumping into artists telling me that I inspired them
Label meetings had a few they would never pan out
It wasn't like, I was ever looking for a hand out
I realized that was never a lane where I would fit in
I took control and built the iron throne that I would sit it
Independent winning I didn't need a job
I made a living off the rhymes I wrote you see the God
Like damn it's been a decade already fam
Them it hit me that's something to celebrate fam
With zero corporations just support from y'all
This a special thank you letter that I wrote for yall
Cause without y'all I don't exist and I mean that
An artist can't exist without the feedback
So I'm a take this long drive with my seat back
With no particular destination for me to be at
So ride with me on The scenic route
No beefing over clout for who meanest out
Reminisce on the best times and those to come
With all the bullshit I would overcome
Friendships ending, cats fighting over crumbs
Just to spend it on the same night
Rocking all these shows was fun
This the awakening 10th anniversary date
We splurging cutting the cake like it was surgery day
10 years later stronger than ever and even greater
Reaping the fruit of my labor, the future is very favored
Back then it was uncertain times searching for my sound
The answer to my question who's legendary now?
