[00:08.79]I wrote my way out [00:11.74]Wrote every...
[00:08.79]I wrote my way out
[00:11.74]Wrote everything down far as I could see
[00:16.24](Wait for it, wait for it, wait for it)
[00:17.83]I wrote my way out (uh)
[00:19.25]They said I wouldn't amount to nothing
[00:20.93]Now I hold the head of he who could give the crown concussion
[00:23.45]**** it, my new 'vice is stay off my old vices
[00:25.73]Even though my new life is gon' cost me my old life
[00:28.43]I wrote my way out of it (I wrote my way out),
[00:29.96]Out of that hell hole
[00:31.26]Shoes that don't even gotta be tied up, that's velcro
[00:33.87]My freedom sitting on the other side of that cell door
[00:36.51]The other side of the track where I'm from like railroads
[00:39.28]My daddy slapped the **** out my momma in front of me
[00:41.74]Couldn't do **** about it at that time I was young and weak
[00:44.53]All I could do was write a hundred rhymes to a hundred beats
[00:47.26]'Bout what I plan to do in spite of what was done to me
[00:49.77]I wrote my way out (I wrote my way out)
[00:51.20]Out of the poor house, accomplished my goals somehow
[00:53.93]I never sold out, I'm a product of Motown
[00:56.41]And now I'm in the public eye
[00:58.01]So if you ever see me solve a problem before
[01:00.08]Just know before I solved a problem
[01:01.74]That the problem got wrote down
[01:03.12]I wrote my way out
[01:04.54]Wrote everything down far as I could see
[01:09.48](Wait for it, wait for it, wait for it)
[01:10.96]I wrote my way out
[01:12.52]Back to the store to get some bare essentials
[01:14.33]Government cheese, a half a gallon milk, and a pair of pencils
[01:16.93]I write my life inside this journal, hope they hear my info
[01:19.48]And if you think this **** is ****
[01:21.00]Then you should hear my intro
[01:22.27]Yeah I used to argue with my teachers and go back and forth
[01:24.69]Told them one day I be famous and be back for more
[01:27.52]Maybe blow all of my bread to make it back on tour
[01:30.08]And smash all the rich hoes that I never had before
[01:32.83]Ryan had no paper, I was plotting on them racks on racks
[01:35.64]****** sneaking in your crib with the black on black
[01:38.28]Just rumbling through your **** like lemme have all that
[01:40.94]'Cause I was lost, now I'm back on track
[01:42.98]Look I ain't never been **** and that's just me being real
[01:45.68]I gotta call it how I see it, that's just me being trill
[01:48.31]And I ain't trying to take advice, just take it easier, chill
[01:50.95]But if I gotta pay the price, **** it, then leave me the bill
[01:53.57]Joyner
[01:54.35](Yeah)
[01:55.04]I wrote my way out
[01:58.48]Wrote everything down far as I could see
[02:02.87]Picked up a pen and I wrote my way out
[02:04.98]Yeah, I wrote words on a page, symbols on a surface
[02:07.86]Graffiti on the wall where my ancestors were purchased
[02:10.56]I contemplate when the day I'm due to inherit the earth is
[02:13.04]I'm a subversive nation awaiting the birth of his own
[02:16.28]Where shots get thrown and spots get blown
[02:18.31]And the convicts roam on the streets of a conflict zone
[02:20.91]It's not his home
[02:22.07]Adrenaline, testosterone,
[02:23.34]And pride keep the throne speaking in a toxic tone
[02:26.26]I feel like I wrote my way up out of a burning building
[02:28.79]To earning millions in this world of soldiers and civilians
[02:31.61]I burn the oil every night as I return to brilliance
[02:34.41]Under the gun, I'm under pressure, under surveillance
[02:37.04]But I'm spitting the bigger picture, sending the benediction
[02:39.82]Some people write and live what I'm penning,
[02:41.65]This Little Richard
[02:42.58]Paper begins to rip while I'm illustrating the difference
[02:45.22]And a fake out and a way to break out
[02:47.01]I shawshank the great escape route
[02:49.25]Yeah
[02:49.86]I wrote my way out
[02:51.83]Oh I was born in the eye of the storm
[02:55.89]No loving arms to keep me warm
[03:01.04]This hurricane in my brain is the burden I bear
[03:04.68]I can do without, I'm here
[03:07.59]'Cause I wrote my way out
