[Verse 1] I've been working in my bedroom for a decade, that ain't gon' change I don't need em', I'll be damned if I was 17, battling for my freedom They told me they had better ideas than me, I don't see 'em Y'all said you were fans of Token—well, it's time you meet him I've been learning that what's running my generation is fear I've been learnin' that you cannot teach dedication to peers I've been learning by myself, you've been very patient I'm here I'm here, finally, aight' I've been invincible ever since I was told that being different is a gift I hold Been driven ever since my initial video Tryin' to get into shows on my tippy toes I define persistence, I'll tell you to your face as if you didn't know So anyone tryin' to confirm their practice I don't listen to talk, I observe the action That's why I work like it's pure mechanics Automatically swallow batteries, burp the acid These work like magic These bursts of passion could reverse the earth's determined axis I left the world and I ain't returning bastards, I live by my words now research the mapquest I don't receive your distractions, you rely on teamwork but all of your team work like asses and I can talk about the success of my own career and say I'm the fuckin' leader of that shit (That shit, that shit) That's that shit to turn a coward to a buddy hoping for power above me But I wouldn't count with your money if I was without any house Or was hungry and you had thousands and thousands to fund me I'm 17, and you are a child to me, how funny Give me a second, alright With independence, I built up a method, no women or men will be given a leverage of limiting anything I don't really gotta be thinking about a limit I literally eliminate every limit who livin' and nobody really wanna be givin' me lip because even all of my literacy will lift you to heaven Just so I can drop you below (Woah!) Hasn't been a motherfuckin' second that I'm not in control (No!) Humans also goddamn weak but know that I got loftier goals (So!) Just because it's never been done man it doesn't mean that I won't Make it happen, I know I will make it happen, if I said I'll make it happen Just know I will make it happen and I haven't even received the knowledge to fail Not pressured by the pressure, when all else is lost, I prevail Self taught
