underestimated (intro) - josh smith lyrics

[intro: josh smith]
for the longest time i’ve felt like my presence on this earth was under appreciated
all i’ve heard was “you can’t do this” and “you can’t do that.”
“you don’t have enough money”, “you’re too white”, “you’re not cool enough”
“you’ll never amount to anything”
“you can’t.” “you won’t.” “you’re not.”
but guess what? they were wrong. i can do it
i mean i don’t have a lot and i’ve learned to stop focusing on what’s not and accept what i got and to make do with what i have…
because i can. because i am. and because i will
don’t believe me? no worries, man
let me prove it to you…

[verse 1: josh smith]
underestimated should be the name on my birth certificate
they said i couldn’t stick with it, listen, now you can witness it
made my flow articulate, pen and paper i scripted it
thought i was a joke then? well now i’m straight up ridiculous
new in the game, got no shame
here to claim a name with thoughts of fame
fortune, success, money excess, what’s the difference, it’s all the same
here to prove a point to y’all, i was born and bred to ball
i’m not a frickin’ corner store so treat me like super mall
i will not fall. i’ma keep escalating this ladder
you can follow but you’ll fail and tumble down right to the ground until you splatter
no longer do your opinions matter
just keep up the jibber-jabber, watch as my pockets get fatter
i’m where i’m supposed to be, some might call it destiny
this is the purest form of me, don’t worry b, there’s more to see
more to hear year after year, no plan to stop i have no fear
the captain of this rapping boat, so move on over let me steer
zero chains, no ice, second will never suffice
believe i’m going places dawg, don’t even gotta think it twice
jesus christ made my life purposeful with meaning
so i don’t see why some people still seem to have a problem with me
i’m gifted; i knew it from the very beginning
but where i’m going is depending on where i’m heading
god forbid that i end up left back in the dust
that’s enough, raise your cup, only place i’ll ever be going is up
w-ssup?

[interlude: josh smith]
and that was only the first verse
still got so many bars left up in my archives
why are you guys so silent all of a sudden?
yeah, no i got some more for you
yeah, yeah, yeah…

[verse 2: josh smith]
alright, i get it man i’m not what you wanted, you’ll have to deal with that
“why he talk so white and act caucasian, i thought he was black?”
i’m not stereotypical, this rap is not some ritual
no saggy pants or swear rants, i’m educated and spiritual
i’m mystical, people shocked ‘cuz they have never seen this
my lines so cheesy, i should be calling this album cheez-its
keep this in your mind, next time you see a news headline
you’ll read “kid’s rhymes are quite sublime, his tape’s online, you need this!” (dang)
and i would agree, i would say this is the life that has been chosen for me
i gotta work on it though, you don’t get nothing for free
only exception would be that winning mentality
forget working that nine to five, i’m working way overtime
no days off, on the real, i’m working into the night
don’t ask me how i do it, why i do it you already know
i got something on my chest and i’m ready to let it go
i’m tired of tryna pretend to be someone i know i’m not
realizations take place and it’s amazing how supa hot
i can be, see with me, this music stuff is all i got
i’ll have your mind in circles like donut rings a parking lot
it doesn’t matter to me what people think, i could care less
my life ain’t the best, and yes, i know it’s a mess
but i ain’t stressed, see i’m blessed for my existence on this earth
dead is the old josh, by listening you’re witnessing my rebirth
i’m underestimated and under appreciated, never faded
and never stopping until i finally make it
it’s j-smeezy boy!
