Yo talent doesn't make you a superstar I done seen a million artist come And a million go I done seen one hit wonders go missing so many times It'll make a scientist to believe in ghost Jeezy signed my hoody and he told me keep hustlin Then I met TI Just A rapper chasing his dreams Honored to meet ya Always knew that one day We would meet again Funny how the tables spin Shoutout to the DJs who be playing this Back to the tracks I would rap When I trap Round the map In a cap That was black Get in my bag With a bag Book bag On my back Full of tracks Yes I really did that I kept going going And knowing Knowledge is flowing Interning serving and opening stages Jesus in motion A poet potently penning my soul On canvas as noted notes I was taking in studios After cleaning the toilet stool If you ain't neva seen a Christian in the mainstream Yo eyes been closed cause we made memories of daydreams When Jesus died He pushed darkness to the side So you artists that be lying Better repent for them lines That you sold To the children Who ain't never have they Mom's or they pops praying with em So they grew up thinking God was just optional I been in the studio With all the biggest rappers And I realized that the money And the fame still doesn't matter We all got twenty four hours and we all gone die And yo Instagram followers don't equal changed lives Big stages Blessed to be on big stages in big cities But it seemed like God moved the most when stages was itty bitty No lights no smoke and the sign was all gritty Most folk would go to the crowd about fifty It don't matter because I feel Jesus in the environment This ain't a gig my homie it's an assignment And I know the devil aiming at me But he can't hit me And all these blessings raining on me Cause God is with me I remember one time I was true to form Did a show for two little kids in a thunder storm I remember when the rain started pouring down I'm like if y'all ain't leaving Then I'm throwing down I started rocking and the rain wasn't easing up I was determined to finish and wasn't giving up I did an hour Didn't even get paid But I do remember two kids got saved That's why I do it bro I remember Lookin at rappers like a father figure I had a dad but still it takes a village So I'm at my neighbors house We Ain't blood But somehow we relate to Jigga Every word he spit We say it with him That's why I'm standing on the stage I built in 1999 Cause when I gave my life to God He start performing in my heart So as I grew I knew My mission to save souls Ain't bout no brand Started building on that Rock Cause I Ain't gone build my stage on sand The lights that you see Reflecting my jewelry piece Is really just Jesus the King Shining and glowing through me Down to the words that I speak That kids and they parents repeat Y'all know I be quoting the Word This Prophet be rapping on keys The stage is just a platform Ima preach with or without one With no income Still make outcome Ima hustla You bout none I dedicate this song to all the years They wouldn't put me on they stage Used to love to shake they head Now they hate I'm in they face Big Stages I almost slapped yo favorite rapper When he disrespected me after I served him with smile and laughter Revenge ain't nothin I'm after I took notes Parallel parked cars with no tip Errand boy Drivin on E Paid for my own trip To get you what you need In a record time I'm drivin my daddy benz A star you can bet I shine My boss said I'm the best intern that they ever seen Maybe cause like Jesus I'm a servant before I'm King The embarrassing things I endured God used to mature Me From back doors To walking through front doors See I ain't one to complain About how far I done came Well Maybe back in the day But now I'm grateful for Grace Every door that was slammed Made me just who I am Every sound engineer Erased the voice that you hear Every weapon that formed Every show I performed Every stage I get on He's Who I'm standing on
