[Verse 1]
God damn, and I heard it's Rap History Month
Y'all have no idewa what hip-hop did for me
It lifted me up when I was living rough and shit outta luck
I used to throw on Slim Shady and stop giving a fuck
So, I'd like to honor the greatest genre
This shit allowed me to take my trauma and escape the bottom
I went from hourly, seven dollars, to making commas
I love you, Mama, I did it for you, I hope you're proud of me (Proud of me)
Yeah, I know that I'm a guest in this house
I try to never overstep, that's why I slept on the couch
A lot of legendary rappers gave their lifе to pioneer my success
That's why I'm never prеssing for clout, fuck the record sales
When I lay awake at night, I just thank God that hip-hop has saved my life
Sometimes, I wonder if the greatest even know my name
Or respect my game, so, every time I grace that mic
