| (Intro)Take a look at me. | |
| Take a look at me now. | |
| Take a look.(Verse 1) | |
| Once upon a time, not too long ago | |
| Down in the great state of | |
| Texas where we live life slow | |
| I was born amongst poverty, | |
| I had no dough | |
| Motivated by a dream with some hustle and flow | |
| My paper was never long but my ambition was strong | |
| Followin Gods path, | |
| I could never go wrong | |
| I took a road less traveled and | |
| I got a few scrapes | |
| But the journey was all worth it just to get that cake | |
| Mama told me | |
| I would make it, some fools just laughed | |
| But I remembered how | |
| The Bible say "The first shall be last." | |
| And even thought all the teams skipped over me in the draft | |
| I ignored all the haters and perfected my craft | |
| Times change, and nowadays to me it seem funny | |
| The same people hatin, callin me up to borrow money | |
| But i hold no grudge, | |
| I just forgave and forgot | |
| I guess thats the reason | |
| I made it to the top | |
| Take a look at me now...(Hook) | |
| Haters said that | |
| I would never get this paper | |
| But Ima see my money regardless | |
| Got the soul of a hustla | |
| When it comes to gettin my bread...... | |
| Im heartless | |
| Take a look at me now | |
| Take a look at me now | |
| Take a look at me now | |
| Take a look at me now | |
| Take a look at me now(verse 2) |
