More Mentors

[Intro: Connor Price]

Yeah

[Verse 1: Connor Price]

911 Turbo-S, make it NATO green

Stealthy with the wealth, I don't make a scene

But they still know I play for keeps

It's like a crash landin' over water, yeah, it's plain to see

I refuse to be the one who says, "Wait for me"

I'd rather take the lead

And they say, "Talk is cheap" 'til they see what I'm paid to speak

The rate is steep, salary like major leagues to say the least

Ironic 'cause I say the most

Let's raise our glass and make a toast

Cheers to the ones who stayed loyal, еxpected nothin' and gave thе most

Lord knows I wasn't gettin' to this place alone

Breaking bread, never breaking oaths

But I still gotta watch my back 'cause the hate can grow

I keep my grass cut short where no snakes can go

Layin' low, takin' notes, observation post, laser scoped

Run the game with my girl, we like Link and Zelda

She's here to lift me up when I can't pick myself up

Execs laughed us out the room, they were quick to shelve us

Now we flyin' high, and they treat us well like a trip with Delta

I'm feeling like McConaughey in Interstellar

Time slippin' through my fingers, tryna grip it better

Lot I wanna do before I die, I got a list to settle

Down to The Wire, we do it all like I'm Idris Elba

Yeah, multi-millionaire, multi-hyphenates

Wanna be like Donald Glover, they tell me that's childish

Six years old the first time I ever signed a check

Go ahead and check Google, this no overnight success

I chose a path and I stuck to it, no luck to it

Decide to do it how Russ do it, no rush to it

Kool-Aid Man, they put up walls, I run through it

Oh, yeah, Nikes on my feet 'cause I just—, you know

Myself in ten years, who I'm inspired by

In other words, my full potential's what I idolize

Lot of work to do, but I see glimpses of him time to time

Fear of the unknown is what he often tries to hide behind

[Chorus: Connor Price]

Life experience, I gotta get more

Less bottled up, gotta vent more

Less time indoors, more explore

Less time with friends, more mentors

[Verse 2: Idris Elba]

If me and Connor ever hit the road, that's men touring

While we mentoring MC's that say a lot, but are so boring

Very un-alluring, we more like MC's of the past who mentored rap's forming

Now we grillin' 'em like we was George Foreman's

Side hustle, actin' like it ain't nothin'

Ask Russell, Cinderella Man, Connor been actin' since then, you silly pumpkin

I spit out bars like it was soap

And I, Daniel Day or Daniel K like this was Nope

And before it was cool to be a jack of all trades

I was good in every field 'cause I really am the GOAT

Look, I ain't gettin' Hollywood star, I got the constellation

And now I'm plannin' on the planet so they ain't mistaken

When they discussin' who the best entertainer alive is, it really ain't up for debatin'

Look, I mentor my mentees at a matinée

And the music week charts in the same day

And Elba got his nephew Elkan on the beat

Got me wonderin' about the boy Boi-1da

Got the heat, me and Connor like Al and Bobby

Great in our ways and a hell of a story

We got the love and support, so we never need worry

And we are really good and we really ain't sorry

We need more mentors

[Interlude: Idris Elba]

There must be more

More love and guidance

[Chorus: Connor Price]

Life experience, I gotta get more

Less bottled up, gotta vent more

Less time indoors, more explore

Less time with friends, more mentors

[Outro: Idris Elba]

More love and guidance
