This is Me

Hey, you may not know me, but you know me
I'm a SoCal native, LA, OC, IE
And there's nothing you can do to stop me
I've been puttin' in the work so you gotta believe
This is me

Yeah I'm standin' here for everybody to see
And I'm here to prove my worth as an emcee
I'm prayin' all y'all take me very seriously
Everything I put on wax, well this is me
I ain't trynna be a gimmick, I'm trynna show who I am
In the hopes that all y'all would truly understand
I ain't doin' it for the cash, I'm doin' it for me
And what you see in front of you, well this is me

Now I'mma tell you a little somethin' about me
I'm a young cat comin' straight out the OC
T. Karras, love to say
That I'm an amazing young lad from around the way
And I make my own beats so all the money is mine
I'm always droppin' dimes, I'm always on the grind
Smokin' a blunt right here, that's what the fuck I'm doin'
Don't like how I'm livin', well fuck you
You don't really understand where I'm comin' from
You probably think that I'm stupid well you probably dumb
I'm spittin' complex street knowledge, you wouldn't understand
If you were my man then you'd give a damn
About my life, instead you wanna sacrifice
It's not nice that you never gonna pay the price
I'm a gangsta, I know I'm real
Fuck fame, fuck clout, fuck mass appeal, that's what's up

Yeah I'm standin' here for everybody to see
And I'm here to prove my worth as an emcee
I'm prayin' all y'all take me very seriously
Everything I put on wax, well this is me
I ain't trynna be a gimmick, I'm trynna show who I am
In the hopes that all y'all would truly understand
I ain't doin' it for the cash, I'm doin' it for me
And what you see in front of you, well this is me

Told you there was nothing you can do to stop me
I'm reppin' the entire SoCal region, LA, IE, OC
And I'm tellin' you right now, this dick ain't free
Even if you show cash, I'll won't give it up easy
That's me
