Cookin' Soul[00:00:00]
I make music for a livin'[00:00:22]
Work with what I'm given[00:00:23]
Never settin' limits[00:00:24]
Representin' for da women[00:00:25]
See they look at me and see[00:00:27]
Some kind of oddity or freak[00:00:28]
But what they really don't see[00:00:29]
Is I'm just tryin' to be me[00:00:30]
Without the judgments repugnance[00:00:32]
Just doing what I love and[00:00:33]
Not tryin' to be a slave[00:00:34]
To the opinions of the public nah[00:00:35]
My whole life I've struggled to be free[00:00:38]
And now that I'm grown[00:00:39]
I could finally be me ya know[00:00:41]
So nod your head back if ya feel this[00:00:43]
Real always recognize realness[00:00:45]
A lot of people dwell on your appearance[00:00:48]
But never know the struggles that you deal with[00:00:50]
From the bottom rose to the top[00:00:53]
Cooked some hip hop in along with the pot[00:00:55]
Turned this raw stock into a meal[00:00:57]
Started from scratch like Grandwizard Theo[00:01:00]
Yea we started from scratch[00:01:02]
Started from scratch[00:01:03]

And we ain't never lookin' back[00:01:21]
Whether past or in the present[00:01:22]
My style is independent[00:01:24]
Of anything that's trending[00:01:25]
Never-ending like a legend[00:01:26]
Got the recipe my destiny's[00:01:27]
To give the world the best of me[00:01:29]
That's why these people[00:01:30]
I don't even know all invest in me[00:01:31]
In my own league can't define me[00:01:33]
Rap sing and song-write in English and Chinese[00:01:35]
It's the valedictorian right here[00:01:38]
Always been first that's why[00:01:40]
They call me a pioneer ya know[00:01:41]
Started from the bottom didn't know much[00:01:43]
Now I'm coppin' cribs like a grown up[00:01:46]
See my face big on a tour bus[00:01:48]
Hittin' every city that they show love[00:01:51]
What Just doing what I do best[00:01:53]
Nah and we ain't following no rubric[00:01:56]
Pour my soul into the movement[00:01:58]
So even when I'm gone still live thru the music[00:02:00]
Yea we started from scratch[00:02:03]

Tell the DJ hit the repeat when they see me[00:02:23]
Neighborhood squad out bumpin' my CD[00:02:26]
What a feelin' cuz none of it was easy[00:02:29]
Parents barely had enough dough to even feed me[00:02:31]
So I learned to grind hard from a young age[00:02:33]
Told myself I'd be star one day[00:02:36]
You could see me on the news front page[00:02:39]
Cuz I refuse to live a life that's mundane[00:02:41]
Born and raised NYC Queens[00:02:44]
Where kings go to find a queen[00:02:46]
And dreams can turn into a million things[00:02:48]
But fame ain't nothing like it really seems[00:02:51]
Foreal that's why I stay true and I don't do[00:02:53]
Anything that don't feed my soul food[00:02:57]
Follow in their shoes like a broke fool[00:02:59]
And now I get to let the world know[00:03:01]
What I know too[00:03:02]
Yea we started from scratch[00:03:03]
Started from scratch[00:03:05]
Started from scratch[00:03:06]
Now look where we at[00:03:07]
