[ Featuring Ty Farris ]
(Intro - Melanie Rutherford)
Father father make'em see
That this is what i'm called to be
(Verse 1 - Ty Farris)
So many times I got overlooked with this music shit
My journey a movie script, product of Big Proof tootalge
Before rap was on 6 Mile with a tool to spit
My cousin Rick basement shooting dice in a room with pits
I started rapping, super trash but was dedicated
The one they underestimated, always standing next to Famous
I wrote raps until my hands hurt hoping the plan work
Then Proof died, the crew divide most would lose they drive
But i stayed focus as a trained soldier
Consistent as a chain smoker
Changed my name from Flame made a lane now the game over
Never called Paul or Em asking for a handout, took the man route
Betting that pain from my past would help me standout
It took a decade plus for that plan to even pan out
I stuck to guns when most of these local rap niggas ran south
All this was motivation i just had to utilize it
Study greek mythology this type of pain influence tyrants cmon
(Chorus - Melanie Rutherford)
I just wanna be
What God made me
Nothing scares me
I'm no longer fraid to be
I just wanna be
What God made me
Nothing scares me
I'm no longer fraid to be
(Verse 2 - Ty Farris)
Remember being in the studio with Royce for bar exam 3
My verse didn't make the cut, and i was hurt
For what it's worth it was worthy i wasn't ready yall
Then Detroit vs Everybody came and never even got a call
Feeling blackballed but refuse to wave a white flag
At this time my mom passed, a DUI man my life bad
A baby on the way im feeling pressure from all angles
No motivation just depression i was calling on all the angels
This ah heart to heart to fans i don't like that word we like second cousins
I started selling onions, music wise i was barely buzzing
But found my own sound, nothing like it in my hometown
Im destined for a gold crown where most people thought i was go drown
Now im backed by the streets this cocaine no cosign
My pen is a goldmine alot of my peers careers nosedived
I'm still here it was god's plan i hope this motivation
For every dark night it's a joker waiting you can't control the hating
Know what i'm saying
(Chorus - Melanie Rutherford)
I just wanna be
What God made me
Nothing scares me
I'm no longer fraid to be
I just wanna be
What God made me
Nothing scares me
I'm no longer fraid to be
To be
To be
I'm no longer fraid to be
