to all the people that ever stopped me to try n prop me/
to show me love n tell me i got dis locked properly/
my momma taught me, to give back to those who gave/
cuz respect is given to those that show face/
n if thats the case, then i can never forget/
all the people from the past that gave me endless respect/
days i was nobody yet, they believed n pushed me on/
i remember grade 8 and my very first song/
probably my worst song, but they never gave up/
i use to have like 2 fans but the number came up/
i did everything i could to try n make my people proud/
i remember all those battles with my people in the crowd/
n even though i never won, i was never the best/
my people always made sure that i never felt less/
even though dis life is stressed, n its hard to believe/
that dere flattering words can push me closer to succeed/ hah

i really dont how i could be without u/

cuz u dont even kno me but u still put me above/
n dats why, i never call u fans call u by my people/
i aint nobody special dats why i treat us all equal/
n sometimes i wanna quit but u send me all these letters/
that put a tear to my eye n make me wanna get better/
i aint the best, i aint famous, man i aint even rich/
im just a real mutha fuka, a poet n aint no bitch/
so im humble, im thankful, never fuckin cocky/
