Delis - The Mileage Lyrics

Ugh!
See I thought I would be on like 4 years ago
Burning paper, churning hits and touring round the globe
Based on the fact I got a drive thats unquenchable
Based on the fact I got infernos for a set of flows
You might not get it but I'm glad it didn't happen
Back then I used to be mad I wasn't popping
Comparing myself to niggas that I rapped better than
And wondered why I was lacking the shine and they was getting lit
Didn't realize I needed more than just a skill
And that I gotta lay some bricks I got a ton of things to build
My confidence, bond it with a really stiff will
Learn to live down at the valleys and know when to climb the hills
But that was just a phase
Now I'm on game
Better get ready cause we dey come rage
Press record and tell my story, solely focused on my journey
Everybody's got they time
This shit sorta like a tourney
Learnt myself I know who I am
Love me, hate me, swear I don't care
I do what I wanna coz my time here's limited
Real life in the flesh I stay spirited
Yeah everything has got a timing
Know that there's a reason for the rhyming
Can't lie I got my mind on the assignment
And we can't stop now check the mileage
Yeah everything has got a timing
Know that there's a reason for the rhyming
Can't lie I got my mind on the assignment
And we can't stop now check the mileage yeah
Nah nah check the mileage
Can't stop now check the mileage
Nah nah check the mileage
Can't stop now check the mileage
Delis gon stop this? Nah that's just pure fallacy
How can I when it's one of me it'd be a tragedy
So many wack rappers I should start an academy
Too fly I'm on air I'm like a radio personality
Blaze my own trail I don't do patterns
With the music shit Yung Cassius too badass
I ain't talking kicks but I found a new balance
I mix the genres man my catalogue like fruit salad
Tryna make it happen ain't just sitting making wishes
So I rid the complacence, keep the consistence
Thoughts about my legacy dey inform my decisions
If you tryna waste time make you give me some distance
And nah I'm not a chef but I'm always in the kitchen
Make the beats, rap, sing and try to master my mixing
Of course we gon glisten
In the stars it is written
Got no restrictions, its nothing but friction
So I'm still moving, still grooving yeah
I make the jump ion think through it
If you no dey see the future ego seem stupid
But everything we put in we gon recoup it and more
Yeah everything has got a timing
Know that there's a reason for the rhyming
Can't lie I got my mind on the assignment
And we can't stop now check the mileage
Yeah everything has got a timing
Know that there's a reason for the rhyming
Can't lie I got my mind on the assignment
And we can't stop now check the mileage yeah
Nah nah check the mileage
Can't stop now check the mileage
Nah nah check the mileage
Can't stop now check the mileage
