Fake It 'Till You Make It

They say it's fake it till you make it
Fake it till you make it
I ain't got no time to be debating
I just stay creating
I stay at the top I'm praying to my maker
Ride the elevator
When I'm the booth I cook it up
Then serve it like some bacon
They say it's fake it till you make it
Fake it till you make it
I ain't got no time to be debating
I just stay creating
I stay at the top I'm praying to my maker
Ride the elevator
When I'm the booth I cook it up
Then serve it like some bacon
There was this one time that my mentor
In quotation marks
Told me that I had to try and fake it
To win at all
I knew it sounded bad and couldn't take it
And after that call
Those words they kept on swirling in my head
I couldn't get em out
At first I sat and pondered was he right
Should I rethink the fight
Is what I'm writing bout not even relevant
Should I leave it behind
Should I get melodic and trade out my bars
In my pocket for content that I don't even like
Should I start playing nice
Dang
I thought a lil more
And reached a conclusion I was feeling sure
This wasn't me this was more
I chose to leave that advice at the door
I knew I could compete
I knew I had to believe
I knew that I want it and there ain't no stopping
So all I can do is record and release
So I decided not to try it not to lead my fans astray
Not to get wrapped up while
Rapping bout some money I can't pay
I refuse to sell out unless it's selling out a ticket box
Instead I'll try to reach the masses
Spreading fast like chicken pox
They say it's fake it till you make it
Fake it till you make it
I ain't got no time to be debating
I just stay creating
I stay at the top I'm praying to my maker
Ride the elevator
When I'm the booth I cook it up
Then serve it like some bacon
They say it's fake it till you make it
Fake it till you make it
I ain't got no time to be debating
I just stay creating
I stay at the top I'm praying to my maker
Ride the elevator
When I'm the booth I cook it up
Then serve it like some bacon
Ayy Ayy
When the labels start their calling
Ayy Ayy
When they show that dotted line will I
Ayy Ayy
Will my signing be a sign I tried
Ayy Ayy
Don't really know and in the end that's why
In the end that's why
I doubt I'll choose to sign
I would rather own my work and
Be my own boss not some other guy
That is how you know that I'm the guy
There ain't no better side
I'm standing in the middle of
The lanes and yet I cannot die
I keep my hand up in the pot
I stand with giants and quiver not
I brave the cold and shiver not
I stand twofold I stand with God
They say I'm done they'll be surprised
I got em tearing up they eyes
I'm running free I'm undefined
You got my promise I'm real till I die
I'm real till I die
They say it's fake it till you make it
Fake it till you make it
I ain't got no time to be debating
I just stay creating
I stay at the top I'm praying to my maker
Ride the elevator
When I'm the booth I cook it up
Then serve it like some bacon
They say it's fake it till you make it
Fake it till you make it
I ain't got no time to be debating
I just stay creating
I stay at the top I'm praying to my maker
Ride the elevator
When I'm the booth I cook it up
Then serve it like some bacon
