ShepDaddy - Motivation Lyrics

Alright let me the start with the obvious things I ain't no king
I don't have wings, I don't sell no bricks, and I don't have the patience

Make a long story short, I'm taking the sword out of the stone
And I'm taking it home, like Davante Adams in the endzone

I'm putting in the work, so my family is eating good
A real man puts his family first, and writes his story in the book

I can say I'm proud of me, all of these places I've been
The people I've seen, I'm living proof you can chase a dream

I can say my life is far from perfect, and I have things that I regret
Especially the fact that I'm a reject, I've come to respect that

I had a chat with the devil yesterday, he said he's been feeling bad
That I was trying to hide the fact, that I lived my life like a doormat

Letting people walk all over me, for a little bit of money
Hard lives do make hard people, because it never came easy

Call me crazy call me lazy, call me every word in American History X
I couldn't care simply, because I'm young and hungry

This is my motivation, yeah, yeah
Dedication, Motivation, aye aye aye

I didn't owe you anything, it's a miracle I'm still breathing
I had a lot of setbacks, but I never stop believing

All this rapping is a gamble, I don't wanna be a has been
Dodging hatred is a game, they should be calling me John Madden

Supporting my family has always been my priority,
Failure is not an option, I promised I would be a somebody

I've been blessed with every breath, didn't settle for anything less
I used to pray every day for death because my friends were never there

But that never stopped me, I know my families got me
My babe saved my life, I now my life seems right to me

I remember the days I cry in my room, tears in the bathroom
I know the world likes to judge, and the haters like to assume

They think they know me, just cause they know my history
I'm the one writing the book, and you're not in the story

Just because you got some Gucci, and you got your Versace
I wear the jeans from last week, and I still get the victory

This is my motivation, yeah, yeah
Dedication, Motivation

This is my motivation, yeah, yeah
Dedication, Motivation, aye aye aye
