Hip Hop
[Intro — Spoken] This is Mikey's story — no glam, no glitter, just the climb. (Ad-libs: yeah, listen) [Verse 1 — Dark Reflection] Mikey Legend, Tremont nights, Roxy lights and midnight trains, Girls loved the wild crown, hotel windows and cheap champagne. Chandler Street to Worcester lanes, county bids stamped in ink, Two AM in August, last call, the car skids on the brink. Neon like a bruise on my nights, velvet ropes and empty beds, Lullabies traded for round trips, warm beer and reckless threads. I learned the applause then learned the silence when the curtain fell, Lonely drunk nights, courthouse stamps, and stories I won't tell. Almost took my last breath under fluorescent ambulance light, Flipped a coin on a stretcher, felt the reaper standing quiet, tight. Now sober dawns, three small shoes lined up by the door, Ring on her finger coming soon — I'm a father now, I'm more. [Pre-Chorus ] Hit the bottom, tasted steel; I breathed and planned my stand, Counted breaths on the floor — still I am, still I stand. [Chorus ] Remember my name — I rose from the road. (hook) Remember my name — I rose from the road. (Ad-libs: rise, rise) Remember my name — I rose from the road. Remember my name — I rose from the road. [Verse 2 — USER VERBATIM] Fuck what you heard man this is the real shit listen look this aint your average everybody huddling we making classics everything matches thats fashion & thats teamwork we got you staring in the space like 3 per 30 milligram can you feel it man I went through all that bullshit & still I stand & now im a bigger man I aint gotta give a gram sell it up cause I give a damn but thats in the plan playbook got the whole team thinking touchdown to celebrate to give you that I dont give a fuck sound we made a bust now the score running up so now we taking our time cause we aint gotta rush got the whole world right in front of us stand up if you think we gonna bust it down no joke we dont choke we fun tll our soul broke & theres no hope bro no Im not drunk aint smoke yet we on the line but I aint scared of no cold threats no red unless its what you drinking godbless who ever think they ever mess with what we bringing & thats a message to you young kids players never win cause the team always run shit beast to the wall man we aint ever punt it we just some dumb trucks trying to get blunted bump it! with the windows down cause Im motherfucking stunting whole team down so now we rolling in bunches see you when Im round but you better come quick cause I run shit feel me Im a deal breaking kid who got a feel for the cake and even though Im living fresh so keep it real to the day got feels on the ground fish kneel to the ground whole team stay loud till im out now man you a motherfucking project I tried to teach his little minds about concept but I ain't reach him guess they took too many wrong steps it's like doing the right thing in congress you gon' stress loyalty I'm honest but don't take it too long like Moss did and get ac
