Risk and Reward

I'd bet my life on it all

That they would go through hell to see me fall

If music is the risk, I risk it all

That they congratulate me and applaud

But as time goes the risk grows

'Cause there is no pain without gain, I did not risk it not to change

But you know that I know

That you just do it for the fame, but the reward just ain't the same, no

I done chose my path, yeah, I know that it's meant for me

Relics from the past tryna drain me of my energy

Life been moving fast, tryna hold onto my memories

I got my reward, now the risk is in the jeopardy

Oh, I cannot lose myself to desire

And I didn't work this hard to retire

It's risk and reward, yeah-yeah

It's risk and reward, it's risk and reward

I took a risk to chase my dreams and reward is coming soon

I took a risk to give up sleep and found rewards up in the booth

Took control of my desires, I was way too comfortable

But I ain't here to just survive, I'm just here to plot and move

I been on my job, no banter

Headed for the stars, no anchor

A nigga done work, no hands out

Too busy for the beef, no slander

Gifted with the raps like Santa

Give it up to gain like ransom

A legend in the making no phantom

A legend in the making no phantom

I done chose my path, yeah, I know that it's meant for me

Relics from the past tryna drain me of my energy

Life been moving fast, tryna hold onto my memories

I got my reward, now the risk is in the jeopardy

Oh, I cannot lose myself to desire

And I didn't work this hard to retire

It's risk and reward, yeah-yeah

It's risk and reward, it's risk and reward

Oh, I cannot lose myself to desire

And I didn't work this hard to retire

It's risk and reward, yeah-yeah

It's risk and reward, it's risk and reward
