Underdog

[Intro]

We just tryna be

Like the niggas that came before us you know

Hear us out

[Chorus]

Mr. underdog

They don't hear my bark

Want the title but I'm always fighting under card

Mr. underrated, tryna make it, yeah, I'm tryna tell 'em

I ain't tryna be no

[Verse 1]

And I be feeling like Hova when y'all was sleeping on him

So called music enthusiasts ain't even know it

I ain't being facetious saying I speak for the culture

I just see through to my roots like I'm greasing with sulfur

Without no Reasonable Doubt y'all was all on the sofa

By 2004, jerseys was out your wardrobe

When I read what I wrote, feel like I reached out a holster

I'm just aiming what I'm saying, hope you bleed out emotion

I ain't saying I don't fuck with all these other niggas

I'm just saying I'm above all these other niggas

Fake hugs from all these fuck niggas

No love for all these sucka niggas

Feeling like Shawn Carter before the diamond

You know that sort of rhyming was sort of head of its timing

I got that same hunger, Roc-A-Fella chain hunger

That going through some things

'Cause they don't hear the shit I'm saying

Hunger

[Chorus]

Mr. underdog

They don't hear the bark

I want that title but they got me fighting under card

Nigga just underrated, hustling just tryna make it

Fuck what them niggas saying, I aspire for greatness

Mr. underdog and this is not a bark

Under ya nose, a rose grew with no sun at all

I ain't stunting y'all

Tell them niggas they sleeping

Tell them niggas they slipping

Tell them niggas that we up

[Verse 2]

Feeling like Rosé before Jay

The marathon of this game always changes in pace

Now they mention my nigga with all the greats

And guess who my nigga tell 'em is on the way

You in debt to the game, success is expected

Fucking with ricky got me working relentless in sessions

Work ethic respected by several record executives

Well dressed, I'm not the type that gets reckless with nothingness

Underrated, overdressed, well paid, no vistech

I'm a top tier nigga looking for respect

There was a time when they hated all the southern rappers

Now all them rappers looking for something southern to rap on

I be liking this mula, it's gon' talk if you have it

By the looks of your balance, you acting like Charlie Chaplin

Passion in rapping a blessing to even see this

Some of my equals didn't see past their rookie season

[Chorus]

Mr. underdog

They don't hear the bark

I want that title but they got me fighting under card

Nigga just underrated, hustling just tryna make it

Fuck what them niggas saying, I aspire for greatness

Mr. underdog and this is not a bark

Under ya nose, a rose grew with no sun at all

I ain't stunting y'all

Tell them niggas they sleeping

Tell them niggas they slipping

Tell them niggas that we up

[Bridge]

I ain't saying I don't fuck with all these other niggas

I'm just saying I'm above all these other niggas

Fake hugs from all them fuck niggas

No love for them sucka niggas

I ain't saying I don't fuck with all these other niggas

I'm just saying I'm above all these other niggas

Fake hugs from all them fuck niggas

No love for them sucka niggas

[Chorus]

Mr. underdog

They don't hear the bark

I want that title but they got me fighting under card

Nigga just underrated, hustling just tryna make it

Fuck what them niggas saying, I aspire for greatness

Mr. underdog and this is not a bark

Under ya nose, a rose grew with no sun at all

I ain't stunting y'all

Tell them niggas they sleeping

Tell them niggas they slipping

Tell them niggas that we up
