I made this beat and recorded the lyrics in 2008. The song was so good I knew I needed an entire project to go with it. So it became the first song off my Sci Fly EP project in 2009. This was by far my best song at the time. The arpeggios and chords are just so inspiring. I was starting to get good at making beats in Reason 4. I would say this song and 5'5 are the two songs people wont let me forget. The lyrics are so powerful to me. I talk about my rap influences and how I am a product of what I listened to growing up. I didnt have alot of friends. I was a student of Ludacris, Kanye, Outkast, Bad Boy... I also was never that popular in school until kids realized I could freestyle. Lunch room rap battles gave me my shot to prove myself.
