EaZ The Engineer - Finally Here Lyrics

I know it's been a minute, I'm finally here
Went from career low life to a rhyming career
They used to walk by, now they stopping to stare
Like who's that right there, yeah it's the engineer
I know it's been a minute, I'm finally here
Went from career low life to a rhyming career
They used to walk by, now they stopping to stare

Theykeep asking, where you been at this long?
Quit rap, ten years, still came back this strong
I was grinding, hip hop and hustling, wasn't aligning
Didn't have a second to spare, and everything is timing
More or less, my focus was any score I could get
Plus your favorite rappers had me bored to death
Felt uninspired, felt tired, the allure had left
But now I gotta get this shit off my chest
With beats that make your head nod
And sonics like the hedgehog
I got your face twisting like the figure four leg lock
I'm a cut above like the Netflix to your Redbox
Since I've been back the impact got them shell shocked
Asking if I'm nice is like asking them if hell's hot
Killing them on stage like Coco when the bell drop
The shit that I be cooking up is hot enough to melt pots
So if I'm shooting then it's headshots

I know it's been a minute, I'm finally here

I know it's been a minute, I'm finally here
Went from career low life to a rhyming career
They used to walk by, now they stopping to stare
Like who's that right there, yeah it's the engineer
I know it's been a minute, I'm finally here
Went from career low life to a rhyming career
They used to walk by, now they stopping to stare

I cut my teeth in this business
When you was dreaming and wishing
Back when we kept our lips zipped
And didn't pose for no pictures
5-5 Studios, where legends became a fixture
Had me spitting sicker than most, with no elixir
Closed shop, formed the plot to to get it for real
And shouts to every artist who couldn't settle the bill
I'm the best you never heard and better than those you will
Even the worst haters like yo, his flow is ill
The doubters who would doubt us
Are eating crow for a meal
Learned to do it all myself
So I'm saying no to your deal
This PREP Sound shit got me ready to grow and build
They done lived long enough, it's time to go for the kill
For my brother Will, another victim to his hustler's will
For my people who stuck up in the gutter still
For those of us who stumble
But recover like a hustler will
I turned debt into a quarter mil

I know it's been a minute, I'm finally here
Went from career low life to a rhyming career
They used to walk by, now they stopping to stare
Like who's that right there, yeah it's the engineer
I know it's been a minute, I'm finally here
Went from career low life to a rhyming career
They used to walk by, now they stopping to stare

Yeah, so guard your pile
See I've been spitting bars a while
Difference is I'm working smarter, not harder now
It's crazy how you go from prophet to a martyr now
In a blinking eye, wink and die from an auto round
So here's a toast to stashing half of what you gross
And reaching heaven 30 minutes
Before the devil knows you're ghost
Cheers to a career more prosperous than most
Better stop to smell the roses
While your nose is still afloat
Make sure to hold it close if you gotta hold your toast
Fortune favors those who take a bold approach
You can floss and boast
But you can bet your bosses won't
We move in silence, I think they all forgot the oath
Whether it's hand to hand or scam to scam
Live and die with each decision
That's what makes a man a man
I can tell you what it took
Still you wouldn't understand
Shit is better than I ever could have planned

I know it's been a minute, I'm finally here
Went from career low life to a rhyming career
They used to walk by, now they stopping to stare
Like who's that right there, yeah it's the engineer
I know it's been a minute, I'm finally here
Went from career low life to a rhyming career
They used to walk by, now they stopping to stare
