It's about time that I got my shine I been on my grind put it all the line They drove me out of my mind They drove me out of my mind I've been up and down, on and off, I thought knocking on wood would be a hit I've been signed and dropped, found and lost, I'm always flying up out of that pit Since I'm pigeon holed, I fell down I'm not tripping no No cash, I'ma pass like give and go, I drank Pabst never got the blue ribbon though But I remember how I spoke it to fruition I was broke and on a mission, I got focused then my music got big But every time I cook up it's like every time I look up someone doing bigger than I ever did I don't let that deter me I'm determined so don't worry bro I'm in the studio right now I been in this thing ten years 'till my name don't ring I survived nine rounds See I might of fell, took a L, make another move, take two L's, flip around, that's a W I might be out my mind but it's about that time They hand me a Grammy as I walk on stage before thanking my family They're watching in Chinese and French and Afghani, I'll say to America right in the camera It's about time that I got my shine I been on my grind put it all the line They drove me out of my mind They drove me out of my mind It'll all be fine When the stars align Yeah, you been waiting on me, I've been waiting on myself SongtexteOn the darker days it's hard to play this game with patient strength I been hurting for a while damn near lost in some spells And the waves 'gon come and go but you must see over the swells 'Cause money real great but it sure don't make you I been on the job, long shift, no break room I been on call with the songs on play through But I don't need to take it to a place where it can't go Living just to give it all you got Getting to the top takes time just watch And the more you lose, the more you lost If you're wondering what all this cost 'cause baby I been in this shit for a while now It's about time I get the shine that I ground for That I ground for It's about time that I got my shine I been on my grind put it all the line They drove me out of my mind They drove me out of my mind It'll all be fine Used to think that life was all about just having fun But I'm making up for the mistakes I made when I was young I been going hard, flowing bars, taking aim like I'm throwing darts Like cobra I know I'm smart, been pulling doubles like Noah's ark I've been finding my way (Looking for my path now) And I've been searching all day (And I ain't talking no pat downs) And I've been working away (And I'm in need of a nap now) And I will make it one day (And you can reference my background) I've been rapping 'bout since my cap and gown Found a perfect habit for my blabbermouth Believe in your dreams keep your passion loud Khabib on the mat never tapping out 'Till I'm famous and I made it Not nameless Rick James shit Won't say it 'cause I'm gracious but It's about time that I got my shine I been on my grind put it all the line They drove me out of my mind They drove me out of my mind It'll all be fine When the stars align They drove me out of my mind They drove me out of my mind Aus Songtexte Mania
