Stucco the Great - Did God Know? (feat. Mashudu)

Vitals on the track

Did God know He created a legend in ninety-nine?
Ask about me, I've been on this marathon the whole time
I was locked up in the booth
When they made a brother choose
And you know I chose rap, gotta blow up really soon
Like a suicide bomber
Of course my niece and daughter gon' be dressed up in designer
But they both gon' be scholars
I'm only concentrating on the finer things in life
As I grow older, I mature like wine
I got a question but I don't really need an answer
'Cause I know what the answer is, I need to man up
I'm from a family of five where you need to cheer up
And so I started being a rapper
Granny was embarrassed
Until she heard my first song and said they gon' be jealous
That's when I knew that my granny understood my passion
That's when I knew that my granny just gave me her blessing
I saw my enemies fall, that's why I'm still standing
I gotta build a foundation till I'm in a mansion
Did I mention that I'm rapping for my satisfaction?
Never drag my feet, I'm driven, I'm not a pedestrian
If I do drop a song then it's something special
I remember when I had my first performance
Momma came onto the stage 'cause I couldn't face the audience
She held my hand like a baby, I recall this
Greatest moment of my life is something I would call it
The reaction that we got was so amazing
When you talk about a dope show, I'm in the conversation
'Bout to be twenty two and I feel amazing
Got my eyes on the prize so I call it motivation
It's a real nigga declaration
I pay respect to the dead, it's a confirmation
No more secrets in my life, I'm not a freemason
After 2022 I'll be a free agent
Because

You gon' shine like the stars in the sky above
Middle finger to the people who don't show you love
You were born to be a leader, keep your head up high
Take your people to a place called paradise
Ooh ooh baby
You drive me real real crazy
Please save me
Before the demons take me (yeah)

I can do it on my own
If you think I'm gonna trip, just leave me alone (alone)
You don't know I'm in my zone
You busy sipping syrup and I'm tryn'a set the tone (woah)
I'm a nineties baby
Somehow I be acting shady
I disconnect myself from the world on a daily
How many people gon' tell you the truth like Makaveli
I sacrifice my own freedom just to teach you patience
And I know for a fact that it sucks waiting
Perfect timing is the rule of this operation
I clap my hands like the choir or the congregation
When I talk about my songs I feel anticipation
I got a diary
Something to inspire me
To talk about a murder, come identify the body
I was born in ninety-nine, second of July
Ten months in the womb
When I was born it was do or die

You gon' shine like the stars in the sky above
Middle finger to the people who don't show you love
You were born to be a leader, keep your head up high
Take your people to a place called paradise
