Greatness (Album Finale)

Yeah, look I put my heart and soul
 Stressing to make ends meet
 24 hours no sleep at 23
 That can't be healthy
 Feel like 22 revolver aimed at me
 Aimlessly running from the bullet
 Of fading dreams can't get caught
 In complacency, mhm
 I became a man before 21
 Faced with the trauma and obstacles
 That life had brung I decided to
 Put my story on wax like Afeni son
 My heart sung, melodies in monotone
 To monetize the microphone mhm
 So 20 engineered my first mixtape
 I was 19 working seven double shift days, uh-huh
 18 months prior I was listening to
 Professor lecture me about my A.D.D
 Said you need to get inspired
 Or see an advisor quick
 All the while I conspired to make
 17 songs with the greatest 16's on it
 Yeah that'll make me rich
 15 dollars to your name
 Make you dream big, yeah yeah
 Greatness, greatness, yeah
 Gotta stay patient, gotta keep praying
 Back to the basics, stick to the plan yeah
 Greatness, yeah yeah
 Greatness, Greatness, whoa
 Gotta stay patient, gotta keep praying
 Back to the basics, stick to the plan yeah
 Greatness, mhm
 I remember young and reckless
 When I turned 14, Grandma said
 You gon' be special, I'm gon' watch you
 On this TV screen from my living room
 With Papa you best believe it but
 Leave it to me to ruin my destiny
 See I just wanted to get money
 With my brethren one way or the next one
 Yeah, we saw laws like Jason
 On Friday the 13th running from 12
 In my Jordan 11's jump fences
 Like hurdle stepping yes man
 I was just young and misled
 I needed a man to show me how to
 Be a man and stand on all 10, toes
 Lead me to the promised land 'cause
 The devil he want my soul, and deception
 Glisten like gold, and 9 times out of 9
 I'm tempted, to twist an 8th
 Into 8 swishers and take pills instead
 Try to numb the pain away
 From the feeling that we feel today
 It get real when life take toll and change
 My heart can only take so much
 On the road to greatness it's roadblocks
 Detours and speedbumbs, I thought the
 First time I crashed I was gonna die young
 But from the 7th Heaven I heard voice like angels
 They said, "don't quit, the journeys only begun"
 Greatness, greatness, yeah
 Gotta stay patient, gotta keep praying
 Back to the basics, stick to the plan yeah
 Greatness, yeah yeah
 Greatness, Greatness, whoa
 Gotta stay patient, gotta keep praying
 Back to the basics, stick to the plan yeah
 Greatness, mhm
 On the 6th day, God said let there be
 Man and Woman, He saw it
 Said it was good and said I got plans for you
 Great ones, daughters and sons
 I'll teach you how to make
 5 loaves, from the breadcrumbs
 When it look like nothing, He turn
 Impossible possible
 From broken homes and hospitals
 From project zones and prodigals
 I promise look, life will beat you down
 To all 4, but this the final thing I gotta
 Say to you and yours, look
 In 3 days, risen came the King of glory
 If God can bring life from the dead then
 Rest assuring look, it's 2 sides to the story
 And this where kingdom come
 I wrote this song to tell you
 That you the 1, you destined for greatness
