"Basement Freestyle" lyrics
Yeah
Diamond
Can I be honest for a second
I know I got some confessions
I think about the future so much
I forget the present
My hunger never gratifies
It's like I'm never satisfied
It's like the more I eat
The more I get an appetite
But good think I got a lot on my plate
And I'm hanging with the right clique no need to copy and paste
I climb every step
It's like the stress is a test
You see failure I see it as steps to success
Every loss is a blessing depending on your perspective
Every failure is a chance to move in the right direction
Now I'm passing the baton
Run the track and go for long
If there's snakes in the grass
Then I have to mow the lawn
The hustle paid off
I never take a day off
These rappers in pre-season
Me I'm in the playoffs
I used to dream of being an athlete
But now I write raps
That's where the track meets
Always had the stamina
Nothing given or handed
But never take it for granted
But always taking advantage of opportunities rampant
And I will always be standing
I always shoot for the moon just wait until I get landed
I'm just a man of the people
And for the greater good I will walk amongst the evil
Shoutout J Cole I know I'm a born sinner
I could never lose I know I'm a born winner
I'm not a public person
I like my life private
I'm not about the rumors, noise, I just like quiet
I've been an outcast
I know I'm different
Cause honestly I don't care about fitting in
The life I chose is what I'm living in
Shoutout to my fans riding with me through the thick and thin
I've been like this since I was 16
Always had big dreams
The passion was in me
Now I get millions of streams every week
Manifested my dreams with the words that I speak
I knew it wasn't far way my mindset was start today
I only had a penny so I had to take the harder way
Yeah
This the story of Simba the young lion
When David battled Goliath
Like when he conquered the giants
And now it's Zach Diamond
The story is just beginning
The mountain I keep on climbing
Yeah
Getting back to the topic
And I'm just stacking this profit
And then cash a deposit
Because I actually got it
And then I blast like a rocket
I'm blasting back to the past as I practice passionate progress
Shoutout to my Dad that's my biggest inspiration
Pure dedication I did it from the basement
I won't dim my light so you know I'll be shining
My first name Zach and my last name Diamond
Diamond
Can I be honest for a second
I know I got some confessions
I think about the future so much
I forget the present
My hunger never gratifies
It's like I'm never satisfied
It's like the more I eat
The more I get an appetite
But good think I got a lot on my plate
And I'm hanging with the right clique no need to copy and paste
I climb every step
It's like the stress is a test
You see failure I see it as steps to success
Every loss is a blessing depending on your perspective
Every failure is a chance to move in the right direction
Now I'm passing the baton
Run the track and go for long
If there's snakes in the grass
Then I have to mow the lawn
The hustle paid off
I never take a day off
