I know you been through a lot lil mama
Last year nearly killed but you lived through the drama
Haters had to holla but you workin' for a dollar
You always paid your dues plus stayed hotta then a sauna
Attitude chill mang even in the summa
Was your number one fan you below no other
Knew I'd see you pull through never doubted for a mona
Mona Lisa moanin... Heh... meant for a moment, check it - hold it
Freeze for a moment - it's golden when we own it
No apology opponents, they all had it comin'
When we risin' we on fire and they all surmount to nothin'
Cuz all that damn hate, it all amounts to nothin'
So when we're makin' moves they only really frontin'
2012 that's the year of the dragon
Wonton soup drop chillin' in Athens
Souped up new coup kickin' to Mathers
When in Rome speak like it really matters
Cuz I love when it works out so well like earth-shatter
My dreams came true like they served on a platter
All through hard work and you always held me over
Five stripes red stripe we chill Passover
Ha...
Look...
This next verse goes out to my brother
Cuz they tried to bring him down even tried to make a blunder
Showed him no love cops tried to put him under
Stuck to his gloves like Rocky he a stunna
So 20-11 that's his year my man
When he rise to the top unfold his plans
Like God had it written in the stars and sand
When you go this hard it's hard to understand
They consider you an outlaw, live's dreams banned
But he broke through not ran, post bluff all in no fold no hand
Still took the pot without smokin' pot
So any motherlover doubt my fam can rot
We in the top notch spot never go soft
Mm..
Pardon my egotistics
It's really quite sadistic, I ain't that narcissistic
Just had to stick it to my haters cuz they ain't never flip ish
Check the logistics, your best bet - statistics
Tune the noise out cuz they ain't gonna say ish
Hold your head high like you were strictly blameless
Even when you feel low homie know that you're famous
Your dreams feel far but I swear you can make it
You can shine so hard, hard to say you ain't stainless
Always stay real you ain't never gotta fake it
Cuz when you lose faith is when you turn complacent
Will power's everything, big understatement
If you feelin' low like you livin' in the basement
Gotta transcend though go like you livin' in amazement
Cuz the way they hold you down swear it was enslavement
Just keep goin' strong hit harder than pavement
And when they hate just laugh cuz really they gonna do ish
