Yeah
They
say
you
are
a
product
of
your
past
But
I’
m
rewriting
the
script
tonight
This
one’
s
for
the
hustlers,
the
dreamers
For
the
ones
who
saw
nothing
and
built
everything
Listen
I
remember
cold
floors
in
a
house
made
of
tin
Watching
my
mother
pray
just
to
let
the
light
in
We
didn't
have
much,
just
the
crumbs
on
the
plate
Learned
how
to
run
before
I
learned
how
to
skate
The
streets
were
my
teacher,
the
concrete
my
bed
With
a
hunger
for
success
that
was
fueled
by
the
dread
Of
never
having
enough,
of
the
shame
and
the
lack
I
looked
at
my
life
and
I
never
looked
back
I
carried
that
struggle
like
a
weight
on
my
chest
But
I
knew
deep
inside
I
was
meant
for
the
best
I’
m
breaking
the
cycle,
I’
m
changing
the
name
I’
m
taking
the
struggle
and
I’
m
flipping
the
game
I
want
a
legacy
built
on
the
solid
ground
No
more
silence,
I’
m
making
a
brand
new
sound
For
my
children,
for
the
future,
for
the
family
tree
I’
m
building
an
empire,
they’
ll
look
up
to
me
Yeah,
the
name
is
etched
in
stone,
can’
t
you
see?
I’
m
making
sure
they
live
a
life
that
is
free
I
walked
through
the
fire,
I
waded
through
rain
I
turned
every
failure
into
fuel
for
the
gain
Those
nights
in
the
dark
when
I
had
nowhere
to
go
Are
the
reasons
I’
m
standing
in
the
stadium
glow
I
won’
t
let
my
bloodline
know
the
taste
of
the
dirt
I’
m
washing
away
all
the
years
of
the
hurt
Every
dollar
I
hustle,
every
move
that
I
make
Is
for
the
generations
that
are
there
for
the
take
My
father
was
a
fighter
but
he
fought
for
the
crust
I’
m
fighting
for
a
kingdom,
yeah,
in
me
they
can
trust
I’
m
breaking
the
cycle,
I’
m
changing
the
name
I’
m
taking
the
struggle
and
I’
m
flipping
the
game
I’
m
breaking
the
cycle,
I’
m
changing
the
name
I’
m
taking
the
struggle
and
I’
m
flipping
the
game
I
want
a
legacy
built
on
the
solid
ground
No
more
silence,
I’
m
making
a
brand
new
sound
For
my
children,
for
the
future,
for
the
family
tree
I’
m
building
an
empire,
they’
ll
look
up
to
me
Yeah,
the
name
is
etched
in
stone,
can’
t
you
see?
I’
m
making
sure
they
live
a
life
that
is
free
It’
s
not
just
the
money,
it’
s
the
love
in
the
soul
It’
s
taking
the
pieces
and
making
them
whole
I
see
my
name
on
the
gate
of
the
house
that
I
built
No
more
shadows,
no
more
traces
of
guilt
I’
m
the
architect
now,
I’
m
the
one
in
command
I’
m
holding
the
future
right
here
in
my
hand
So
look
at
me
now,
I’
m
the
proof
of
the
dream
Everything
is
better
than
how
it
might
seem
I’
m
the
bridge
to
the
heaven
that
we
never
could
reach
I’
m
the
lesson
that
the
street
never
taught
me
to
preach
They’
ll
look
at
the
photo
and
they’
ll
ask
who
I
am
I’
m
the
one
who
rose
up,
I’
m
the
one
who
took
command
I’
m
the
story
that
is
told
when
the
lights
go
down
I’
m
the
king
of
the
legacy,
wearing
the
crown
I’
m
breaking
the
cycle,
I’
m
changing
the
name
I’
m
taking
the
struggle
and
I’
m
flipping
the
game
I
want
a
legacy
built
on
the
solid
ground
No
more
silence,
I’
m
making
a
brand
new
sound
For
my
children,
for
the
future,
for
the
family
tree
I’
m
building
an
empire,
they’
ll
look
up
to
me
Yeah,
the
name
is
etched
in
stone,
can’
t
you
see?
I’
m
making
sure
they
live
a
life
that
is
free
Yeah
It’
s
for
the
family
It’
s
for
the
future
I’
m
building
it
now
Remember
the
name
Watch
us
rise
Just
watch
us
rise (
