[Verse 1]
And I started from the bottom
Like a snowman, ground-up
Like round chuck, and still put hands on you
Stayin' wound up is how I spend time
Sucker free, confidence high
Such a breeze when I pen rhymes
I just got the air about me like wind chimes (yeah)
Another day in the life (uh)
Used to have to scrape to get by (yeah)
Now my community's gated and I
Made it and my neighbors say hi
I'm givin' 'em pounds, I'm upscale now
Guess it means I'm way in the sky
But I still remember the days of
Minimum wage for general labor
Welfare recipient since a minor
Look how government assistance has made ya!
Adversity, if at first you don't succeed
Put your temper to more use
'Cause bein' broke's a poor excuse
That should only give you more fuel
Show 'em why you're you
So close, God, it's like I almost got it
But close only counts in time bombs and horseshoes
So I Unabomb shit—tick, tick, tick—no remorse, pew!
Screw it, I'm lit, and that attitude I blew up on quick
That's why they call me firecracker
I grew up on wick—wick, wick, wick—with a short fuse
I got some important news to report to
Anyone who thought I was done: nah bitch, not quite
Spotlight's back on, got my faith, where's yours?
[Chorus]
Do you still believe in me?
Didn't I give everything I had to give you to make you see?
I'll never forget if you turn your back on me now
And walk out, I will never let you live it down
(I'll never quit) Do you still believe in me?
[Verse 2]
Man, I know sometimes
These thoughts can be harsh and cold as ice
To me they're just ink blots
I just fling 'em like slingshots, and so precise
So you might want to think it over twice
When you retards can roll the dice
But beef will at least cost you your career
'Cause even my cheap shots are overpriced
But this middle finger's free as a bird
Nuke warhead-ed birth, hugest forehead on Earth
Too short for the verse, studied his formula, learned
How to incorporate a curse
Point it towards corporate America
Stick a fork in and turn
'Cause four-letter words are more better heard
The world force-fed a turd to me, you're gettin' yours
But sometimes I overdo it, but I just get so into it
I was there consolin' you when no one knew it
When your situation showed no improvement
I was that door, you walked over to it
I'm the light at the end of tunnel
So people are always lookin' at me as they're goin' through it
When that tunnel vision is unclear
Shit becomes too much to bear
Since "Cleanin' Out My Closet"
When I was havin' trouble with the snare
I'm that unrealistic prayer answered
And I'ma get you jacked up like you're tryin' to fix a flat, uh
When you struggle with despair
That double-fisted, bare-knuckles coupled with this pair
Of nuts I'm cuppin', I am your fuckin' switch, nothin' can compare
[Chorus]
Do you still believe in me?
Didn't I give everything I had to give you to make you see?
I'll never forget if you turn your back on me now
And walk out, I will never let you live it down
(I'll never quit) Do you still believe in me?
[Verse 3]
Started from the bottom like a snowman
Oh man, put that in your corncob pipe and smoke that
But my battery's low, I'ma need a boost to my pack
And I know that I always got Proof at my back
I called you "Proof" because I knew for a fact
My ace in the hole, homie, I'm callin' on you
'Cause I think I'm slowly startin' to lose faith in it, so
Give me that apron and mo–
–tivation to go, Hussein with the flow
Fake fans left you two-faced at the show
Let heartbeats loop, produce hate in my soul
Layin' vocals two days in a row
True statement, hate to go down this road
But there's only one route to cross this bridge
So I walk in this bitch with loose change
'Cause all my dues paid, but this booth's takin' its toll
But it's never too late to start a new beginnin'
That goes for you too, so what the fuck you gon' do?
Use the tools you're given!
Or you're gon' use the cards you're dealt
As an excuse for you to not do shit with 'em?
I used to play the loser/victim
'Til I saw the way Proof was driven
I found my vehicle and I haven't ran out of gas yet
And when they stacked decks, turn handicaps into assets
Fanny packs, hourglasses
If time was on my side, I'd still have none to waste
Man, in my younger days
That dream was so much fun to chase
It's like I run in place
While this shit dangled in front of my face
But how do you keep up the pace
And the hunger pains once you've won the race?
When that fuel exhaust is coolin' off
'Cause you don't got nothin' left to prove at all
'Cause you done already hit 'em with the coup de grâce
Still you feel the need to go full tilt
That Bruce Willis, that Blue Steel, that true skill
When that wheel's loose, I won't lose will
Do you still believe?
[Verse 1]

[Ayet 1]
Ve altdan başladım
Kardan adam gibi
Yuvarlak ayna gibi ve yine ellerini üzerinize çekiyorlar
Kalmaya devam et nasıl zaman harcıyorum
Sucker özgür, güven yüksek
Kafiye tekerlemişken böyle bir esinti
Rüzgar çanları gibi havayı aldım (evet)
Hayatta başka bir gün (uh)
Almak için kazımak zorunda kaldım (evet)
Şimdi topluluğum kapandı ve ben
Yaptım ve komşularım selam dediler
Pound'u veriyorum, şimdi lüksüm.
Sanırım ben gökyüzünde yolum
Ama yine de günlerini hatırlıyorum
Genel emek için asgari ücret
Küçüklerden beri refah sahibi
Hükümet desteğinin nasıl geçtiğine bir bakın!
Başkalık, eğer başta başaramazsanız
Öfkeni daha çok kullanmaya itin
Çünkü kırdı kötü bir mazeret
Bu sadece daha fazla yakıt vermelidir
Onların niye olduğunuzu göster
Çok yakın, Tanrım, sanki neredeyse almışım gibi
Ancak zaman bombaları ve at nalaları sadece yakın sayımları
Bu yüzden Keşfetmek beni, kene, kene-hayır pişmanlık, kahretsin!
Vidal, yanmışımdır ve bu tavrım çabucak havaya uçurdum.
Bu yüzden bana çatapçın dedikleri
Ben fitil, fitil, fitil gibi kısa sigortayla büyüdüm
Bildirmek için önemli haberlerim var
Bittiğimi düşünen herkes: hayır kaltak, pek değil
Spotlight yanılıyor, inancım var, seninkin nerede?
[Koro]
Sen hala bana inanır mısın
Seni görmeni sağlamak için vermek zorunda olduğum her şeyi vermedim mi?
Şimdi bana sırt çevirip unutmayacağım
Ve çık dışarı, ben yaşatmana asla izin vermeyeceğim
(Asla ayrılmayacağım) Bana hala inanır mısın?
[Ayet 2]
Adamım bazen biliyorum
Bu düşünceler buz kadar sert ve soğuk olabilir
Benim için onlar sadece mürekkep lekeleri
Onları at başı gibi atıyorum ve çok hassas.
Yani iki kere düşünmek isteyebilirsiniz
Serseriler zar attığında
Ancak sığır eti en azından kariyerinize mal olur
Çünkü ucuz çekimlerim bile pahalıydı.
Ama bu orta parmak bir kuş gibi özgür
Nükleer savaş başlıklı doğum, dünyanın en alnısındaki alnı
Ayet için çok kısa, onun formülünü okudu, öğrendi
Bir laneti nasıl dahil edebilirim?
Kurumsal Amerika'ya doğru çevirin
Çatal koy ve çevir
Çünkü dört harfli kelime daha iyi duyulur
Dünya bana zorla bir çoban besledi, sen de onunla dalga geçiyorsun
Ama bazen abartıyorum, ama içine giriyorum
Orada konsolide edildim seni hiç kimsenin bilmediği zaman
Durumunuz iyileşme göstermediğinde
Ben o kapıyım, sen de ona doğru yürüdün
Tünelin sonundaki ışık benim.
İnsanlar bana her zaman bakıyorlar, çünkü geçiyorlar.
Tünel vizyonu belirsiz olduğunda
Bok dayanacak çok şey olur
Klozetimi Temizle den beri
Ben tuzakla uğraşırken
Ben bu gerçekçi olmayan duaya cevap verdim
Ve seni evini tamir etmeye çalışıyormuş gibi dövüp alacağım
Umutsuzlukla mücadele ettiğinde
Çift yumruklu çıplak-boğumlar bu çiftle birleşti
Fıstıklardan kahretip duruyorum, senin lanet anahtarınım, hiçbir şey karşılaştıramıyorum
[Koro]
Sen hala bana inanır mısın
Seni görmeni sağlamak için vermek zorunda olduğum her şeyi vermedim mi?
Şimdi bana sırt çevirip unutmayacağım
Ve çık dışarı, ben yaşatmana asla izin vermeyeceğim
(Asla ayrılmayacağım) Bana hala inanır mısın?
[Ayet 3]
Altından bir kardan adam gibi başladım
Oh adamım, mornavlak borusuna koyun ve bunu duman edin.
Ancak pilim çok düşük, paketime güçlenmeliyim.
Ve biliyorum ki sırtımda her zaman kanıtım var.
Sana bir kanıt olduğunu bildiğim için "kanıt" diye seslendim
Delikteki benim as, homie, seni çağırıyorum
Çünkü sanırım yavaş yavaş inancımı kaybetmeye başlıyorum, bu yüzden
Bana şu önlük ve ayarı ver
Akış ile Hüseyin gitme isteği
Sahte hayranlar sergide iki yüzlü kaldılar.
Kalp atışlarının dönmesine, ruhumdan nefret etmesine izin ver
Vokalleri iki gün üst üste dizin
Doğru beyan, bu yolda nefret
Ancak bu köprüyü geçebilecek tek bir rota var
Bu yüzden gevşek değişimle bu kaltakta yürüyorum
Çünkü bütün aidatlar ödenmişti, ancak bu kabin faturasını alıyor.
Fakat yeni bir başlangıç başlatmak için asla çok geç değildir '
Bu da senin için geçerli, ne yapmalısın?
Verilen araçları kullanın!
Veya dağıtıldığın kartları kullanacaksın.
Onlarla bok yapman için bir bahane mi?
Eskiden kaybeden / kurbanı oynardım.
'Proof'un tahrik yolunu görene kadar
Aracımı buldum ve henüz gaz bitmedi.
Ve güverteleri istifleyince, engelleri varlıklara çevirdi
Fanny paketleri, kum saati
Zaman yanımda olsaydı, hala atık yapacak hiçbir şeyim olmazdı.
Adamım, daha genç günlerimde
Bu rüya kovalamak çok eğlenceliydi
Sanki yerimde oynuyormuşum gibi
Bu bok yüzümün önünde sarkarken
Ama nasıl ayak uydurursun
Yarışı kazandığınızda açlık sıktı mı?
Yakıt egzozu soğutulduğunda
Çünkü hiç kanıtlayacak hiçbir şey kalmadı.
Çünkü darbeyle zaten vurursan bitirdin
Hala tam eğilme ihtiyacını hissediyorsun
Bruce Willis, Blue Steel, bu gerçek beceri
Bu tekerlek gevşediğinde, kaybetmeyeceğim
Hâlâ inanıyor musun?
