VERSE 1:
Life's a bitch and then, hold up never mind, we golden now.
Coast to coast, the coldest out since Costa Nostra sold them pounds.
I hope these jokers return the flow that was stolen,
overdose on melatonin then zone in and watch me hold it down.
But let me focus now, from a town synonymous,
with chronic narcotic products, ebonics, smoking Parliaments, I can't lie I did all of it.
Promise you should document, the dopest overdose of dopamine since Smokee Robinson.
They be like: "Ely? He go harder than he probably should." 
But if they walked thru hell like me and rapped like this, they probably would.
Oh yeah, the Devil told me all about his memo. Expelled me from North Central but still made it out to Hollywood. 
And yeah man, I'll be good. I hope y'all brought some running shoes, 
because I been speeding since Ms Bowman was the subsitute.
Beautiful children come and kick it with the gifted,
I got way too much stuff to do to get caught up in summer school.
HOOK:
We been thru hell and back, but everything is golden now, 
So if you understand my plan then dreaming's all you know about,
The stay gold familia is what you groove to,
The voodoo of the undiscovered new school (2x)
VERSE 2:
Remember back in the 3, when I was down in the basement I started,
Taking anger to make the fuel that made bangers.
We butted head with the neighbors, they said: "Them kids throwing ragers!"
But whole time it was me and BroGod doing Logic Pro labor.
That shit worked out in my favor, I swear,
Aint nobody on this level now. Hip-Hop took me up, and I aint got no plans to settle down.
My girl, she get confused, cause I speak like a rapper do.
Shit I think that's dope as fuck. THANK YOU COLLEGE AVENUE!
Imagine passing them classes they took attendance at, and never being there to raise your hand cause you were in the lab.
Dexter, now you under pressure! It's truly whatever and never been regular, the sky aint the limit man.
You been a fan. And that's okay, just don't forget who taught you bout,
The moves you make and steps you take to go from scum to balling out.
Take two of these and walk it out, and if you whack, I'll call you out.
Double-C, MG, we the thing Willis was talking 'bout.
HOOK:
We been thru hell and back, but everything is golden now, 
So if you understand my plan then dreaming's all you know about,
The stay gold familia is what you groove to,
The voodoo of the undiscovered new school (2x)

I always liked to write but never liked to sing it always made my ears start to sting. Wrote a poem here, maybe a verse there; I didn't care. Don't call me perfect I had to teach myself how. Now I know the power of the pen and plan to use it now and then.
