Determination

(album: I Promise - 2006)

It's Flaco Da Great and 100 grand Jin
(Uh what up sixpack uh)
This some real hardbody shit right here
Determination, let's go ya'll

I'm so determined that a fire's burning inside of me
I want it so bad I think of it every night when I sleep (uh huh)
And when I wake up in the morning it's on my mind as well (I'm still here)
But if you don't think I can do it you can all go BLAH (check it out ya'll)

Of course I wanna be a household name
Have a mouth full of gold, iced out chains in a range
A lifestyle of fame and entertainment
I'm aiming of having my name engraved in pavement
My bills are late, they keep sending me statements
I'm making a statement by not making payments
I wanna the throne so bad it's aching
Don't care if it's vacant or not I'm a take it
I'm on a grind like Jamaicans
Watch out how far a bit of determination will take 'em
I stay 2 levels above you while you're in a basement
I'm in a attic like come on if you chase it
After we've battled they wonder where your face went
I put a Jin logo there now that's a product placement
I'm so close I can taste it
I'm a keep doing what I do while you lames stay complacent

I'm so determined that a fire's burning inside of me
I want it so bad I think of it every night when I sleep (uh huh)
And when I wake up in the morning it's on my mind as well (I'm still here)
But if you don't think I can do it you can all go BLAH (check it out ya'll)

I put wild years into this
Plus I put my blood, sweat and tears into mix
No wonder the type of shit that I hear get me sick
Like I ain't suppose to be here
Taking flicks and making hits
Maybe that's a missing factor cause I ain't make a hit yet
But listen that's a different chapter
Shit is supposed to happen in phazes
It's my life story, I'm adding some extra pages
The way I used to feed into hate was outrageous
But haters are just unconventional motivators
And that's the bottom line everybody got them
Fine, I don't see 'em
Out of sight, out of mind
Mind your own business and stay out of mine
The way everybody watch me you would think I'm out of time
I'm the truth, I ain't hotter than proof
I don't expect you to see what I see from the other side of the booth (yeah)

I'm so determined that a fire's burning inside of me
I want it so bad I think of it every night when I sleep (uh huh)
And when I wake up in the morning it's on my mind as well (I'm still here)
But if you don't think I can do it you can all go BLAH (check it out ya'll)

Let me explain what it's like when I'm in front of a mic
My blood boils, sorta like I'm ready to fight (aiight)
I'm not the physical type
But lyrically I might make it so you don't walk the rest of ya life
Player in a hospital, next to your wife
Telling the doctor to pull the plug
Yo it's over, good night
See that's Jin, I'm determined to win
Let me put in the terms easier for you to comprehend
You wanna know how bad I wanna be on the top?
Just picture a crackhead who wants to be on rocks
For all these little rappers who wanna be like Pac
I just wanna do everything that they say I can not
I'm so driven I'm giving it my all
Opportunity is knocking any minute it can call
And I'm a be right there to answer when it does
Open arms with an outlet simply just because

I'm so determined that a fire's burning inside of me
I want it so bad I think of it every night when I sleep (uh huh)
And when I wake up in the morning it's on my mind as well (I'm still here)
But if you don't think I can do it you can all go BLAH (check it out ya'll)

It is not over, I repeat, it is not over
It's the kid 100 grand Jin, crafty plugz
I'm just getting started ya'll
I'm so determined uh
Turn the fucking mic off
