20ad - funky dl lyrics

verse one (funky dl)
(check it out yo’), twenty albums deep, this is a celebration
for all the struggles from start, had to acquire patience
a different generation back then
but some of the same struggles we faced as juvenile young black men
we still got attacked when the news came on at ten
the irony of trevor mcd being the front*man
and black people taking the fall just like a stuntman
how was i gonna take on thе world when i’m just one man?
having the drеam to be a rap*star
with no instructions or manuals, textbooks or flashcards
i’m just a seventeen year old with big ambitions
making a nuisance of myself to get some peeps to listen
couldn’t say that it was easy, it was challenging
did it by myself without labels, no management
no front covers, many haters, many scavengers
a couple business deals gone bad and felt the damages but…

chorus (stee moglie)
when life knocks you off of your seat, you’ve gotta stand on your own two feet
yeah, n0body can walk your destiny for you, (twenty albums deep)
and when the lights on your path go dark, you can’t see your way
just walk in faith, know the life you crave can shine from deep inside you

verse two (funky dl)
yo’, twenty albums deep, this is a landmark
i prayed for this when i’ze a kid so have to thank god
i’m saying this for all the ones who ain’t believe in me
the ones who treated me like i was doing this illegally
don’t get it twisted, i persevered, persisted
with 19 other albums prior if you missed it
went from entrep’naive to entrepreneur
and kept releasing irrespective of the things before
the only thing my heart was in was music
before the days of social media numbers and insta blue ticks
from samples to acoustic, i struck em’ like a pool stick
and gave thousands of people something that’s therapeutic
to tell the truth i was done at autonomy
feeling like the business was a joke, was a comedy
record labels play monopoly with only novelties
but when a prophecy’s a prophecy, it’s just a prophecy so…

funky dl
tell em’ el*emcee

verse three (el*emcee)
twenty albums deep
one can only dream of these sort of achievements
leave em’ all speechless, every time i speak this
feeling like a g*nius, 20*20 vision
they say spit ahead of this time, so when i future rap i’m reminiscing
cash*cow’s milk and all the business
stake it on me, with no beef
i’m hip*hop til’ my heartbeat cease you see (uh*ha)
strategically calculating my steps, taking my time
like bob ross, my music be my picture, my painting divine
ain’t pushing no rocks, i’m slinging my rhymes
funky tells me how the journey was a h*ll of a time, whoa!
had dreams being front cover of magazines
listening to my favourite mc’s in limousines
woken up now i see patience, dedication and hard work
yeah, look what i can be, twenty albums deep!

chorus (stee moglie)
when life knocks you off of your seat, you’ve gotta stand on your own two feet
yeah, n0body can walk your destiny for you
and when the lights on your path go dark, you can’t see your way
just walk in faith, know the life you crave can shine from deep inside you

outro (funky dl)
i always knew that… from a young age i always knew that i had to become as self*sufficient as possible. i… i guess you can say i started my… my life journey in music at like… twelve*years old, i… i always knew that i’d be… here… twenty albums deep
