Own Lyrics – Ettrick Shepherd
Singer: Ettrick Shepherd
Title: Own
Still solo, no team and no whack new recruits
I’ve been staying in and that’s bad news for you
Got a small circle and they know i’ve been a ghost
But i’ve been in my own world, that’s just how it goes
When you’re the only one who truly believes that you could be
Someone great, validation is something i shouldn’t need
I want it though and that craving has gotta go
No longer an amateur, they’ve still forgotten joe
I’ve gotta make sure the standard keeps rising
Nowadays when i come with bars it’s not surprising
I’m dead in the water, let the liquor spill
Unless i improve faster than they think i will
You can’t say that it isn’t preposterous
And i’m not fishing compliments but it’s sh#t to have copped this
What they say and think lives in my conscious so
If you b#tches and tryna strip me of my confidence mission accomplished
Underrated
Most rappers love to say it, as for me – i f#cking hate it
Check my ratio, it’s one fan to half a dozen haters
So i can’t be just another bum who doesn’t make it
And i’m not looking to making a stack to runaway with
If you’re wanting to live this life then come and take it
The way that the brain operates is nothing basic
Working different but if it didn’t would i have become creative?
Not a chance, one day i’ll show them all
Get them all turning yellow and wearing overalls
They said i was despicable, they’re gonna
Go from having hope i don’t make it to having hope i fall
The belief is weak, the self doubt is strong
But my catalogue is still hours long
I’ve been consistent and that’s what i’m counting on
To this day, i can’t attract to a crowd of one
Every single that i drop, i’m thinking “this could get a
Million plays and take me to a bigger place” but it never
Does so i revert back to my cynic ways
But here i am – still hungry with more sh#t to say
