lyrics
I been overlooked, undervalued, underrated
Overruled in court,
Understated with every statement
Overburdened at school, understood what I was told
but got overconfident
Caught up in the undertow,
I would overindulge, couldn’t weather the storm
Work would then overflow, then I would underperform
Start over making beats didn’t know what do to do
The underground cats called my tracks overproduced
So many layers underneath, they would overreact
Overconfident, I just knew that they would be back
Underestimated the moments I had with my friends
Overwhelmed with joy when i do I see 'em again
Overworked for years at tons of underpaying jobs
Underdeveloped skills made changing vocations hard
I didn’t understand, my girl was so overdramatic
Wanted me to undergo some changes, she had had it
I had oversold a dream that was highly underfunded
Overcompensated for skills I lacked because i wanted
Her to entertain it, I was so underestimated
Then she explained it, hip hop is
Oversaturated
You gotta be different, that’s when I underwent a change
Focused on an underserved segment of the rap game
Now we overjoyed, under scrutiny of the culture
Like undertaker at mania I’m going over
When it’s too high to get over
And it’s too low to get under
You gotta find that middle ground
Cause we ain’t getting no younger
Yo Duke, you're dead wrong
You'll never have the skills like mine
I write the ill type rhymes
Now I'm reaching my prime
360 dunk in your face
You can't compete, you're just a basketcase
Let's separate the men from the boys
And put your money where your mouth is
No time for toys
Your game is weak, you geek, so don't sleep
Cuz I'll be checking and wrecking ya
When I start to creep
Through the backdoor
I know I caught you out there
You got no clout here
And I doubt there
Is anyway that you can stop the beatdown
You better play the background
And sit back down
Chumps like you, I gotta keep'em in line
So prepare to suffer boy, cuz now you're mine
I'll fake you left and go right
Straight down the lane
Here's one in your eye
You feel pain, you strain
To put together some strategy
But you're raggedy, and i'll be glad to see
The frown on your grill when i drill and thrill
Set out my offense, commence to kill
I'll be leading from beginning to end
And after I pound ya
You're gonna wanna make friends
And make amends for the silly trash you were talking
Take a walk and your shots I'm swatting
With ease, and the ladies are swooning
Clocking my swiftness, why you drooling?
You oughtta practice up and get your game refined
I been waiting to dog you, and now you're mine
Hurry up, sucker
Go ahead and pick your squad
Try to play hard, but I'ma rob
You of your crazy notions to defeat me
You're weak see, I'm rough hardcore
And even get down to give you a rematch
After I wax and tax y'all rap stars
I slam the alley-oop
You can rally troops
But I play the awesome defense
I'll pick your pocket
And send you to the bench
With tears in your eyes as you realize
The prize is for me
Yes all the money
Son, my form is too nice
My handle's precise
I'll take you right or go left
Because my game's so def, and now you're mine
Overruled in court,
Understated with every statement
Overburdened at school, understood what I was told
but got overconfident
Caught up in the undertow,
I would overindulge, couldn’t weather the storm
