[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]
And I started from the bottom
Like a snowman, ground-up

[Verso 1]
E comecei do fundo
Como um snowman, ground-up
Como o mandril redondo, e ainda põe as mãos sobre você
Stayin 'liquidação é como eu gasto o tempo
Sucker livre, confiança alta
Essa brisa quando eu canto rimas
Acabei de receber o ar sobre mim como carrilhões de vento (sim)
Outro dia na vida (uh)
Usado para ter que raspar para entrar (sim)
Agora, a minha comunidade está fechada e eu
Fez e meus vizinhos dizem oi
Estou dando-lhes libras, sou de luxo agora
Adivinha, isso significa que eu estou bem no céu
Mas ainda me lembro dos dias de
Salário mínimo para trabalho geral
Destinatário do bem-estar desde um menor
Veja como a ajuda do governo já o fez!
Adversidade, se no primeiro você não conseguir
Coloque seu temperamento para mais uso
Porque estar falido é uma desculpa pobre
Isso só deveria dar-lhe mais combustível
Mostre-lhes por que você é você
Tão perto, Deus, é como eu quase entendi
Mas perto apenas conta com bombas de tempo e ferraduras
Então eu Unabomb shit-tick, tick, tick-no remorse, pew!
Aperte, estou aceso, e essa atitude que explodi no rápido
É por isso que eles me chamam de foguete
Eu cresci em mecha, mecha, mecha - com um fusível curto
Recebi algumas notícias importantes para informar
Quem pensou que eu tinha terminado: nah bitch, não bastante
Spotlight está de volta, conseguiu minha fé, onde é seu?
[Refrão]
Você ainda acredita em mim?
Não dei tudo o que tive para te dar para ver?
Nunca vou esquecer se você virar as costas para mim agora
E saia, nunca vou deixar você viver
(Eu nunca vou sair) Você ainda acredita em mim?
[Verso 2]
Cara, eu sei às vezes
Esses pensamentos podem ser duros e frios como o gelo
Para mim, eles são apenas manchas de tinta
Eu apenas os arremesso como estilingues, e tão preciso
Então você pode querer pensar duas vezes
Quando você retarda pode rolar o dado
Mas a carne de bovino pelo menos custará sua carreira
Porque mesmo meus tiros baratos são muito caros
Mas este meio dedo está livre como um pássaro
Nuke warhead-ed birth, a testa mais preguiçosa da Terra
Muito curta para o verso, estudou sua fórmula, aprendeu
Como incorporar uma maldição
Aponte para América corporativa
Pegue um garfo e gire
Porque as palavras de quatro letras são melhor ouvidas
O mundo forçou-me a alimentar-me, você está ficando seu
Mas, às vezes, exagero, mas acabo de entrar nisso
Eu estava lá consolhendo você quando ninguém sabia disso
Quando sua situação não mostrou melhora
Eu era essa porta, você se aproximou disso
Eu sou a luz no final do túnel
Então, as pessoas estão sempre me olhando enquanto passam por isso
Quando a visão do túnel não está clara
A merda torna-se demais para suportar
Desde "Cleanin 'Out My Closet"
Quando eu estava com problemas na armadilha
Eu sou essa reação irrealis respondida
E eu vou levá-lo como se estivesse tentando consertar um apartamento, uh
Quando você luta com desespero
Esse duplo-punho, nódulos desencapados, juntamente com este par
De nozes, estou comendo, eu sou seu fuckin 'switch, nada pode comparar
[Refrão]
Você ainda acredita em mim?
Não dei tudo o que tive para te dar para ver?
Nunca vou esquecer se você virar as costas para mim agora
E saia, nunca vou deixar você viver
(Eu nunca vou sair) Você ainda acredita em mim?
[Verso 3]
Começou do fundo como um boneco de neve
Oh cara, coloque isso em seu cachimbo de milho e fuma que
Mas minha bateria está fraca, eu preciso um impulso para o meu pacote
E eu sei que sempre recebi provas nas minhas costas
Liguei para você "Prova" porque eu sabia de fato
Meu ás no buraco, homie, estou ligando para você
Porque eu acho que estou lentamente começando a perder fé nisso, então
Me dê esse avental e mo-
-atividade para ir, Hussein com o fluxo
Falsos fãs deixaram você com duas faces no show
Deixe os batimentos cardíacos dar uma volta, produza o ódio na minha alma
Cantando dois dias seguidos
Declaração verdadeira, odeio seguir esta estrada
Mas há apenas uma rota para atravessar esta ponte
Então eu ando nessa cadela com mudança solta
Porque todas as minhas dívidas pagaram, mas esta cabine está tomando seu preço
Mas nunca é tarde para começar um novo começo
Isso também é para você, então, o que diabos você vai fazer?
Use as ferramentas que você forneceu!
Ou você vai usar os cartões que você recebe.
Como uma desculpa para você não fazer merda com eles?
Eu costumava jogar o perdedor / vítima
Até que eu vi o modo como a Prova foi conduzida
Eu encontrei o meu veículo e eu não acabei de gás ainda
E quando empilharam plataformas, transformar as desvantagens em ativos
Pacotes de Fanny, óculos de sol
Se o tempo estivesse do meu lado, eu ainda não teria que desperdiçar
Homem, nos meus dias mais novos
Esse sonho foi muito divertido de perseguir
É como se eu estivesse no lugar
Enquanto esta merda pendia na minha frente
Mas como você mantém o ritmo
E as dores da fome, uma vez que você ganhou a corrida?
Quando esse escape de combustível é frio
Porque você não tem nada para provar em tudo
Porque você já os atingiu com o golpe de graça
Ainda assim, você sente a necessidade de inclinar completamente
Que Bruce Willis, aquele Blue Steel, essa habilidade verdadeira
Quando essa roda estiver solto, não vou perder
Você ainda acredita?
