Lyrics Chris Webby – Optimus Rhyme
Text:
I heard ya’ll talking about me
I’m pretty sure a lot of you got me confused with who I used to be
Hah, a lot’s changed
Catch up
Everyone talks like they know me
But it’s all based on the old me
I’ve evolved, I’m transformed and raw
My battery’s full charged and ya’ll ain’t got shit on me
Now you dealin’ with the grown me
Trapped in a world full of phonies
I’ve evolved, I’m transformed and raw
My battery’s full charged and ya’ll ain’t got shit on me
Look at me now, I’ve been leveling up
You can see me still standing through the settling dust
I want it all but it’s never enough
I’ve been playing all my cards and it’s never a bluff
Yeah, I’m made up of the shit that make an icon
The shit they say that I’m on
Is tighter than the grip of a reticulated python
In a blink, I put my life on the line
Thinking back to dark times, reminiscing with the light on
But, every mistake will deliver a lesson
When I thought it was a curse, it was really a blessing
Had to deal with disappointment through these fits of aggression
And had to pull myself up out a couple pits of depression
But I’m resilient
Change with the game like chameleon
Learned you gotta take some losses if you gon’ really win
I took my L’s like a champ and survived
Motherfucker
Everyone talks like they know me
But it’s all based on the old me
I’ve evolved, I’m transformed and raw
My battery’s full charged and ya’ll ain’t got shit on me
Now you dealin’ with the grown me
Trapped in a world full of phonies
I’ve evolved, I’m transformed and raw
My battery’s full charged and ya’ll ain’t got shit on me
Oh, ’cause what you see
Ya’ll can’t take from me
Yeah, keep it raw
My battery’s full charged and ya’ll ain’t got shit on me
Oh, ’cause what you see
Ya’ll can’t take from me
Yeah, keep it raw
My battery’s full charged and ya’ll ain’t got shit on me
I have people in my circle, but they weren’t in my corner
Mentally unstable, I been swerving on the border
Insomnia mixed with attention deficit disorder
Unable to follow orders, been just me and my supporters
And I’m loving how it feels
Knowing all my peers that counting me out are looking back to see me on the hills
Fuck catching ’em, I’ma blow past ’em
While they catching cramps in they side, gasping
Listen, back when I was coming up, you had to earn your spot
While the gatekeepers forgot to turn those locks
Now they letting everybody in, fuck it then
I’ma slide up in that left lane and let the turbo rock
Tune out the bullshit and focus on what’s ahead
Be the illest I could be while I’m here, that’s a fucking pledge
Even when I’m on my last fucking legs and stuck in bed at ninety
Performing at the nursing home, nightly
Everyone talks like they know me
But it’s all based on the old me
I’ve evolved, I’m transformed and raw
My battery’s full charged and ya’ll ain’t got shit on me
Now you dealin’ with the grown me
Trapped in a world full of phonies
I’ve evolved, I’m transformed and raw
My battery’s full charged and ya’ll ain’t got shit on me
Oh, ’cause what you see
Ya’ll can’t take from me
Yeah, keep it raw
My battery’s full charged and ya’ll ain’t got shit on me
Oh, ’cause what you see
Ya’ll can’t take from me
Yeah, keep it raw
My battery’s full charged and ya’ll ain’t got shit on me
