And I'm not throwing away my shot
Ayo Imma get a scholarship to kings college. Probably shouldn't brag but dag I amaze and astonish. problem is I got a lot of brains but no polish
I gotta holler just to be heard with every word I drop knowledge
I'm a diamond in the rough, a shiny piece of coal tryna reach my goal my power of speech unimpeachable
Only 19 but my mind is older these new york streets getting colder I shoulder
every burden every disadvantage I have learned to manage I don't have a gun to brandish I walk these streets famished
The plan is to fan this stark into a flame, but dang it's getting dark to let me spell out my name
