Enemy

I look at life in the face with a stare so cold
Cuz to get where I want I'll make my own road
Never take a free pass or jump on the bandwagon
Not another punk chump with his pants saggin'
I spent my whole life study this rap game
Shit's changed, givin' rap a bad name
Times I wonder if I'll ever make a difference
But mainstream right now makes me keep my distance
So I hit you with a different approach
Instead of talkin' 'bout who's dealin' and killin' the most
The one you should be feelin', I keep it realer than most
Ain't no first class here, see me chillin' in coach
And sixty percent of rappers out, I can't stand 'em
Half of 'em really, I can't even understand 'em
So tell me how the fuck those same rappers go platinum
And not have to deal with Cro Magnum

Cuz the industry never see the end of me
Hustle full time, on the grind, like there's ten of me
Gotta keep my name up, just to keep the fame up
Never take shit and don't forget where you came from
Cuz the industry never see the end of me
Hustle full time, on the grind, like there's ten of me
Gotta keep my name up, just to keep the fame up
Never take shit and don't forget where you came from

Clock keeps tickin', shots keep missin'
Uppercuts, body blows, while I keep my feet switchin'
Got the devil in my eye, so when I speak, listen
And you can see what I'm sayin' with a deep vision
Keep on fightin' over good and bad
Thinkin' what I coulda, shoulda, woulda had
If I lived my life different
Instead of mic grippin', see me every night trippin'
Knife drippin' blood from a thug doin' time in prison
Try to reach out for help, but all you find's religion
Not even Satan or God can make the right decision
Keep on fightin' to win
But at the same time I'm fightin' through the fire and wind
Tryna walk a straight line in a life they keep tryin' to end
You can knock me down, guaranteed I'll be tryin' again
Never take my heart and soul, keep my mind in full control
Just keep in mind when it's your time to go

Cuz the industry never see the end of me
Hustle full time, on the grind, like there's ten of me
Gotta keep my name up, just to keep the fame up
Never take shit and don't forget where you came from
Cuz the industry never see the end of me
Hustle full time, on the grind, like there's ten of me
Gotta keep my name up, just to keep the fame up
Never take shit and don't forget where you came from

If you're like me, then you live life out of control
What I've seen scare the spirit straight up out of your soul
Try not to stress out on everyday shit
But I keep it all inside and I never say shit
But I've had it up to here now, so hear me real loud
Hit you motherfuckers where it hurts, so how's it feel now?
Mess around, end up bloody on the floor dead
Trust me, there's a price on everybody's forehead
I do my thing, don't let no one try to run my life
Made it this far and still livin', I'm doin' somethin' right
You see these streets? Filled up with crack houses
Beat up spouses with drugs in they couches
I'm sick and I'm tired of the shit that's required
Just to live unadmired, but won't quit if I'm fired
Don't be quick to decipher if I don't fit in the cypher
With no talent rappers who get lit from the spire

Cuz the industry never see the end of me
Hustle full time, on the grind, like there's ten of me
Gotta keep my name up, just to keep the fame up
Never take shit and don't forget where you came from
Cuz the industry never see the end of me
Hustle full time, on the grind, like there's ten of me
Gotta keep my name up, just to keep the fame up
Never take shit and don't forget where you came from
