Packy – Rap Game Underdogs lyrics

[Intro]
'Bout time I said it for the record

[Verse]
Yeah, I'm the best rapper you never heard
I bet you hang on every word
Play my shit or hate on my shit
But you can't do both it gets on my nerves
I don't really want to be this way
I'm too grounded to be this cocky
If you had half the amount of doubters turn into riders
You'd be feeling like Rocky too
Real talk now, no telling me I haven't paid my dues
Cash coming in but it don't mean a damn thing
'Til I make enough I can pay my dudes
Talk about pressure
Couple of my best friends up and moved to the west coast with nothing
Nothing but a dream and the confidence in me
One day, I would make it all worth something
How could I not rap my ass off? I'm all in for this team
I turned down 'bout like 50k 'cause I know I gotta chase this dream
I ain't even blink twice when I told 'em
I ain't even think twice about that
Couldn't even break the news to my dad though
I ain't wanna be the one to break his back
But I gotta live though, got a story to tell
Can't look back on the what if's
But if I don't make it into the rap game
I'ma just be another cat that couldn't cut it, fuck it
Money on the budget, gold on the pages
Hide the man for me to rip these stages
You can't tell me nothing

[Chorus]
I been on that no sleep and that go hard
Ain't nobody stopping my shine
Had a lot of late nights with my headphones
And a lot of bullshit on my mind
Had my head down and my grind on
Lotta people telling me that I'ma be the one
But I never really looked up 'til just now
Finally hitting me how far we've come

[Post-Chorus]
Rap game underdogs, never got no love from blogs, self-made
Told me quit the music, get a real job
Don't look now, I'm self-paid
Rap game underdogs, rap game, rap game underdogs
Rap game underdogs
My team put work in, now lift that curtain

[Chorus]
I been on that no sleep and that go hard
Ain't nobody stopping my shine
Had a lot of late nights with my headphones
And a lot of bullshit on my mind
Had my head down and my grind on
Lotta people telling me that I'ma be the one
But I never really looked up 'til just now
Finally hitting me how far we've come

[Outro]
Rap game underdogs, rap game underdogs, rap game underdogs
Rap game underdogs, rap game rap game rap game underdogs
My team put work in, now lift that curtain
