How Far?

Previously on Ready to Die
Three shots in
I swear it do the best harm
I swear I'm still waiting on the best part
Bumpy beginning
Three-one, what a rough start
But I ain't come to play
So I don't see a need to press pause
I don't see the need to try and speed my timing up
Played it straight for so long
I guess it's lining up
Bunch of fingers online
Deciding who not rhyming tough
Clearly they must've missed something
I think I got bars in my own right
Gotta be the one
There ain't enough for us both right
That's what I've learned from you niggas
Gotta flow damn near perfect for niggas
To come to terms with these conditions
OT, I even put in work on a slow night
Ain't at my peak yet
You should've seen where I came from
To stay on this ride
Gotta be loyal like James Jones
Been having to lead niggas to glory since ringtones
Trying to ball like Jim Jones
You feel the same then sing-a-long
Know that these dreams are just shooting stars
But I'm the best so far
This life a movie
Should've played your part
Imma be like this 'til the end
And I don't care what the reaction is
Ain't too many coming after this
Not taking score, the points on the board
How much more
I feel it now I'm so close
I know all my niggas from the East can relate
Should own a restaurant
For all the time I've had to wait
Let my momma tell it
I should be out here trying to make some kids
Or find a bae
I would if there were more than understood
But that's just not the case
Eventually, but just not today
Really their ideal nigga
I'm just not as paid
Or maybe I'm too spontaneous for 'em
You know, need a sure thing
The type of nigga play it safe
With the lights on
They told me the water's deep
But they ain't tell me bout pythons
All these that's gone false claim me
How you my blood
When it only be one person in the back
While I write songs
Promise that you can't even see the half
On your iPhones
Trying to read my hand
But you can't, cause it's facedown
Just know I'm bout to pop up on your feed
With a new sound
I don't want these hits to be the reason
You came 'round
So if you had anything on your chest
Say it now
Know that these dreams are just shooting stars
But I'm the best so far
This life a movie
Should've played your part
Imma be like this 'til the end
And I don't care what the reaction is
Ain't too many coming after this
Not taking score, the points on the board
How much more
I feel it now
I'm so
Close
