Rick Hyde – Who Am I?! Lyrics

 

Who Am I?! Lyrics by Rick Hyde

 

Yeah
Who are you, man?
Always wanted to do that
It’s Ricky
Yeah

Shamiya’s second oldest
The brightest and the boldest (Yeah)
Who put everyone on notice
The producer and the poet
Growing up, it was so much pain, I couldn’t even show it (Damn)
It’s obvious they see it, but won’t tell you that they know it (That they know it)
Dollar candles up the stairwell, kitchen full of roaches (Facts)
Moss’ house was a safe haven
Weekends was my vacation (Moss, what up, n****?)
Brother facing seventeen or twenty-four or eight Lakers
Is this really life? Because I’m questioning where fate take us
Nobody is perfect (Nah)
Searching for a purpose (Searching for a purpose)
It almost wasn’t worth it, now they pay me for the service (Yeah)
If my mama love was present ‘stead of numb, I’d be nervous
I know she see me getting what I earned, I deserve it
Corporate tried to make me join a union, tryna D-Wade us (Uh)
Forty out of one sixty-eight, bitch, I’m a dream chaser
Long nights in the studio with Shay, where will these dreams take us? (What up, Shay?)
Couple million streams later
Hundred thousand clean paper
Lost Shay after I signed, to this day, it’s still surreal (Damn)
I wasn’t fully healed
On the block like Buddy Hield
If I trade it all tomorrow, was it worth to get the deal? (Was it worth to get the deal?)
Can’t let these people turn me to somebody I would kill
That’s a message for you rappers, n***** talking ’bout the real
N****, make me a believer, make some music I can feel
Both my albums ’bout my real life, not fabricating skill (Yeah)
I get love in Nova Scotia and Australia and Brazil (Yeah, facts)
Tryna bring the team some M’s, we already got the W’s (We already got)
Seen it from the bottom, where I’m at now is another view
Came in, got a bundle, gave ’em twelve, fuck the other two
Whenever I’m uncomfortable, I think, “What would my mother do?”
If Shay was still breathing just became another reason
Give my brother back his freedom, until then, we screaming free him (Free Boonie)
Who am I to sit there if other people need him?
You n***** like a year late
All heroes don’t wear capes
It’s Ricky, n****

Uh
Yeah
