Nostalgia

Man, I remember when i sucked at rap..lol. I would just play around with it, and write flows in my room for hours when I got home from school. Dudes at my high school were all tryna rap, and I just wanted to be better than them becuase they would always ask me to flow. I spit my first flow prolly in 9th grade, and one of my friends said i sounded like Kanye West. At this time, I was just a dipset head, so i didn't really know how much of a compliment that was becuase i didn't listen to Kanye like that back then, my brother did.. I was more of a Killa Cam fan. As time went by I never took rap seriously, but i would always practice. I knew I had potential is prolly why. Later that year, my brother met up with a DJ that he started recording with. And he would tell me to roll with him to the studio, and I DIDN'T even wanna rap, I would just hop on verses for my brother shit, but then they was like "yo, yo shit tight..you should do some of your own songs". So, i strayed away from it for awhile becuase I was more into basketball. But then after the basketball dream didn't work out, I started writing. I don't know why, but for a couple years I was rapping like Wayne up until 11th grade when I FINALLY snapped out of it. IO told myself, i'm better than that & it's not really me. So I stopped rapping all-together during that whole year till about the end of 12th grade. When i was bitterly alone, and confused from Love. I remember texting my cousin n telling him i'm gonna rap again, and sent him this song I had did that day. He had text me back like man that shits tight. So I put all my energy, good or bad into my music. Bullshitted for awhile, started this retail job, thought about what I was gonna do with my life then said fuck it.. Quit that job and decided to pursue music. I've came up a little since then, but it feels good to know how much i've improved in such short time. And I'm only gonna get better is the cool thing about it.
