Nothing playing

(Yeah, look...) Staring at the fence, feeling like the world's so cold, Stories in my mind that have never been told. Got that LA on my chest, Los Angeles my home, But in this crowd of millions, man, I'm feeling all alone. They see the white fit, fresh, they see the diamond chain, But they don't see the scars or the memories of pain. Counting every penny, dreaming of the big leagues, Fighting off the doubt, fighting off the fatigue. (Is it worth the fight? Is it all just a lie?) Look up at the stars, gotta give it one more try. From the concrete jungle where the wild things grow, Got a vision in my head and I'm ready for the show. Gotta keep it moving, gotta keep my head high, Watch me build an empire, touching up the sky. Yeah, watching it all, ready to take it. LOS ANGELES ON MY BEANIE, LA ON MY SLEEVE! I WON'T STOP 'TIL THE WHOLE WORLD BELIEVES! FROM THE BOTTOM OF THE PIT TO THE TOP OF THE HILL! GOT THE GRIND IN MY BLOOD, GOT THE POWER IN MY WILL! THEY WANNA SEE ME FALL, WANNA SEE ME LOSE! BUT I'M THE ONE WHO'S PICKING OUT THE PATH I'M GONNA CHOOSE! YEAH, LA ON MY CHEST AND THE WORLD IN MY HAND! TIME TO SHOW 'EM ALL EXACTLY WHERE I STAND! No more looking back, only looking ahead, Forget the doubt, forget the things that they said. They wanted me to settle, wanted me to stay small, But I'm built for the mountains, not the backyard wall. Locked in my vision, laser beam on the prize, You can see the hunger burning bright in my eyes. Every sacrifice made, every drop of my sweat, Gonna pay off in full, I ain't finished just yet. Building my legacy, brick by hard-earned brick, Moves are calculated, movements are quick. (They can't stop me now, no they can't stop me now...) Got the city on my back and I'm showing them how. From the shadows of the fence to the bright city lights, I'm ready for the struggle and I'm ready for the heights. Yeah, pure dedication, pure motivation. LOS ANGELES ON MY BEANIE, LA ON MY SLEEVE! I WON'T STOP 'TIL THE WHOLE WORLD BELIEVES! FROM THE BOTTOM OF THE PIT TO THE TOP OF THE HILL! GOT THE GRIND IN MY BLOOD, GOT THE POWER IN MY WILL! THEY WANNA SEE ME FALL, WANNA SEE ME LOSE! BUT I'M THE ONE WHO'S PICKING OUT THE PATH I'M GONNA CHOOSE! YEAH, LA ON MY CHEST AND THE WORLD IN MY HAND! TIME TO SHOW 'EM ALL EXACTLY WHERE I STAND! Sometimes I look at this chain and I wonder what it's worth, Fighting every day just to prove my place on Earth. They see the outer shell, they don't see the war inside, All the tears I had to swallow, all the pain I had to hide. (Yeah, the pain I had to hide...) But that fire in my belly, man, it never goes away, It's what gets me through the dark and helps me find another day. So I'm standing by this fence, but I'm looking past the wire, Fueling my ambition with a pure and holy fire. Let 'em doubt, let 'em hate, let 'em say what they will, I'm the king of my own destiny, and I am moving still. Yeah, moving still. Pure power. Ready. Let's go. LOS ANGELES ON MY BEANIE, LA ON MY SLEEVE! I WON'T STOP 'TIL THE WHOLE WORLD BELIEVES! FROM THE BOTTOM OF THE PIT TO THE TOP OF THE HILL! GOT THE GRIND IN MY BLOOD, GOT THE POWER IN MY WILL! THEY WANNA SEE ME FALL, WANNA SEE ME LOSE! BUT I'M THE ONE WHO'S PICKING OUT THE PATH I'M GONNA CHOOSE! YEAH, LA ON MY CHEST AND THE WORLD IN MY HAND! TIME TO SHOW 'EM ALL EXACTLY WHERE I STAND! LA ON MY CHEST! (Yeah!) WORLD IN MY HAND! (What!) TIME TO SHOW 'EM ALL EXACTLY WHERE I STAND! LOS ANGELES, WE MADE IT! NO MORE DOUBT, NO MORE FEAR! THE CHAMPION IS FINALLY HERE! YEAH! (Yeah... we made it.) Looking back at the fence now... it doesn't look so big. Los Angeles on my chest... always. The world is ours. Keep dreaming. Keep grinding. (Yeah...) Out.
