The Mileage Lyrics

Ugh!

See I thought I would be on like 4 years ago

Burning paper, churning hits and touring round the globe

Based on the fact I got a drive thats unquenchable

Based on the fact I got infernos for a set of flows

You might not get it but I'm glad it didn't happen

Back then I used to be mad I wasn't popping

Comparing myself to niggas that I rapped better than

And wondered why I was lacking the shine and they was getting lit

Didn't realize I needed more than just a skill

And that I gotta lay some bricks I got a ton of things to build

My confidence, bond it with a really stiff will

Learn to live down at the valleys and know when to climb the hills

But that was just a phase

Now I'm on game

Better get ready cause we dey come rage

Press record and tell my story, solely focused on my journey

Everybody's got they time

This shit sorta like a tourney

Learnt myself I know who I am

Love me, hate me, swear I don't care

I do what I wanna coz my time here's limited

Real life in the flesh I stay spirited

Yeah everything has got a timing

Know that there's a reason for the rhyming

Can't lie I got my mind on the assignment

And we can't stop now check the mileage

Yeah everything has got a timing

Know that there's a reason for the rhyming

Can't lie I got my mind on the assignment

And we can't stop now check the mileage yeah

Nah nah check the mileage

Can't stop now check the mileage

Nah nah check the mileage

Can't stop now check the mileage

Delis gon stop this? Nah that's just pure fallacy

How can I when it's one of me it'd be a tragedy

So many wack rappers I should start an academy

Too fly I'm on air I'm like a radio personality

Blaze my own trail I don't do patterns

With the music shit Yung Cassius too badass

I ain't talking kicks but I found a new balance

I mix the genres man my catalogue like fruit salad

Tryna make it happen ain't just sitting making wishes

So I rid the complacence, keep the consistence

Thoughts about my legacy dey inform my decisions

If you tryna waste time make you give me some distance

And nah I'm not a chef but I'm always in the kitchen

Make the beats, rap, sing and try to master my mixing

Of course we gon glisten

In the stars it is written

Got no restrictions, its nothing but friction

So I'm still moving, still grooving yeah

I make the jump ion think through it

If you no dey see the future ego seem stupid

But everything we put in we gon recoup it and more

Yeah everything has got a timing

Know that there's a reason for the rhyming

Can't lie I got my mind on the assignment

And we can't stop now check the mileage

Yeah everything has got a timing

Know that there's a reason for the rhyming

Can't lie I got my mind on the assignment

And we can't stop now check the mileage yeah

Nah nah check the mileage

Can't stop now check the mileage

Nah nah check the mileage

Can't stop now check the mileage
