Lyrics

Look at where I came from and see where I am now

Look at where I came from and see where I am now

Look at where I came from and see where I am now

See where I am now


What did I do this for?

To inspire the entire world, thought I had it puzzled out before

Or did I long for a Mazel Tov from my pops

Or for the streets to give me props

Or do I await the naysayers to finally say hats off, Benefit you's the shit when I did reach the top

I got to the top, I got top

Became the Almighty Top of the Pride Troopers

I spat so eloquent, zero room for bloopers

And spat so vicious, the lyrical Freddy Kruger

Brought out the ruger for every intruder

Spat fire like 2001 Luda

I was quite cheesy but Gouda

If you coulda you woulda toppled me

You shoulda listened when I said only Jay on top of me


What did I do this for?

To get the green and gain monopoly

Or urge you to eat your greens, your broccoli and mushrooms

Or urge you to spend your green on broccoli and so much shrooms

For you to get as high as you possibly can

So you can feel like a man?


What did I do this for?

Was it to get credit for every metaphor?

Was it to drive a nice range by age 24?

Was it so I could be labeled the goat?

Was I cool missing the podium, get a pat on the back and a good sport?

I told myself I wasn't really doing this to sit on the throne

So why I got pissed when one of my friends threw me the bronze?

He say I'm behind Kazzy and Kayflow

I don't know, always thought I was the one on pole position

But was that my mission? Think not

It's all subjective so it don't matter who you give the number one spot to

So maybe I got it right the first time

I did wanna inspire some kid every time I wrote a rhyme

But at the same time I also wanted to have fun

To prove my haters wrong, I wanted to have a crazy album run

To be the best, to leave a legacy, so when you then finally lay me to rest

It'd be clear I lived my life to the fullest

And maybe I get to say


Look at where I came from and see where I am now

Look at where I came from and see where I am now

Look at where I came from and see where I am now

See where I am now
