Lyric

The Demon in the Mirror

A.O.

Well, I'm diggin’ in the crates

Like O.C.And we gotta learn from

The greats like OG, you know

MeBack in the days when

The cadence was amazing Now

Money Pussy, fame instead of a

Good TapeIf Big and Pac were

Still in This motherfuckin’

Game, how

Many fake thugs are gonna

Fade away?Things done changed

And rap’s got a bad nameI hate

To see ’em hit a stain for

CocaineDrugs and guns get us

Stuck in the slumsShit is rough

And tough, but we never get

EnoughWhen I’m hustling, they

Be busting guns for

NothingYoungins still struggling

And suffering for somethingTryna

Stay alive, but crime is on the

RiseDo they fight to live or

Live to fight?I gotta surviveWe

All gonna die, but everybody

Wanna shineOpen my book of

Rhymes again tonightThey say

”The higher you go, the harder

You fall”I keep climbing on my

Own even if I die aloneThey

Never knew the view from

The topcuz they stoppedDropping

Hot shit like drones is all

I knowThey say

”The higher you go, the harder

You fall”I keep climbing on my

Own even if I die aloneThey

Never

Knew the view from the topcuz

They stoppedDropping hot shit

Like drones is all I knowI’m

Driven by my villains on a

MissionTrying to make a couple

Million and it’s for my

VisionNow they all know that

I’m writing the blueprint

Like Jay-ZEverywhere they go

My footprints are what they

SeeIt’s hard to follow cuz my

Motto is ”For Tomorrow”While

They get the bottles and fuckin’

With the modelsI be working as

The fire is burning inside meYou

Better do the right thing like

Spike LeeSo we gotta stay up

This life ain’t as easy as a

LayupNo matter what may come

Fuck it, I’m all the way

UpAlways being straight

UpBitches better wake upYou

Never truly get away with a lie

That you make upThis shit is

So real,but you always on the

BullshitYou can try to steal

But my verse isa full clipI

Fiend for the mic like crack

CocaineHolding it so tight in

This rap againThey say

”The higher you go, the harder

You fall”I keep climbing on my

Own even if I die aloneThey

Never knew the view from the

Topcuz they stoppedDropping hot

Shit like drones is all I knowI

Came so far, it was hard, didn’

T know how to startWas it smart

To follow my heart for my art?

It doesn’tmatter what answers

I getTo write the real chapters

I couldn’t half stepThe pages

That I write are my life and I

RepSomeday you’ll find how

Soon it could endSo I paint a

Bigger picture for my baby in

The futureHoping one day he’

Ll dream like Martin Luther

But if you dream in your sleep

It’ll never come trueAnd if

You laying in the sheets no

One speaks for youEvery choice

You make always makes your

VoiceThe only thing you need to

Get rid of the noise Sleepless

Nights, I know the reasons why

I be staying on my grind and

It’s always on my mind

The demon in the mirror

Sometimes he whispers”Who you

Trying to be? Now you look

Like me”They say

”The higher you go, the harder

You fall”I keep climbing on my

Own even if I die aloneThey

Never knew the view from the

Topcuz they stoppedDropping hot

Shit like drones is all I

KnowThey say, ”The higher you

Go, the harder you fall”I keep

Climbing on my own even if I die

AloneThey never knew the view

From the topcuz they stopped

Dropping hot shit like drones

Is all I know
