I read the rules before I broke'em
I broke the chains before they choked me out
Now I pay close attention
Really learn the code
I learned to read the map
Before I hit the road
Ay yo I know you never heard this before
But I'd rather lose a fight, then miss the war
And I ain't wishing competition or fishing for it
I'm just living in the system, conditions are poor
I've been lost in the rhythm and misinformed
Too many late night hitting the liquor store
Too many bad decisions, half assed attempts
No sweat, no fear, no blood, no tears
I go hard and I ain't making up no excuse
I'm overdue, I don't know what I'm supposed to do
Cause you can think about it man, we're supposed to lose
It ain't all picture perfect, ocean views
No, I was a first class rookie
Taking out bullies in my black hoodie
Man of mystery, you know the history
Get it or forget it, cause poof, I'm outta here
I read the rules before I broke'em
I broke the chains before they choked me out
And I pay close attention
Really learn the code
I learned to read the map
Before I hit the road
Nobody's gonna see me coming
Nobody's gonna hear a sound
No matter how hard they trying
No stopping me since I've found
My inner ninja
My inner ninja
My inner ninja
My inner ninja
All right, I'm just feeling like this, ow yeah
All them kids used to call me weird
I wish they could just see me here
Cause you know I'm running from my inner, inner
You could never stop me, I'm a winner, winner
A couple beats in my backpack through my window
Plaid back and a notebook, dinner, dinner
Remember back ago now Kanye told me
Told me that my demo was whack
Two year Kanye told me that my new shit was gold
Cause it his, handing in my biz
Less eyes but a little more whiz
Get a little pack, get to do it like this
This on my mind, help me run this shit
Nobody's gonna see me coming
Nobody's gonna hear a sound
No matter how hard they trying
Nobody's gonna bring me down
Nobody's gonna see me coming
Nobody's gonna hear a sound
No matter how hard they trying
No stopping me since I've found
My inner ninja
My inner ninja
My inner ninja
My inner ninja
