I Made This Road - SMO, Jimmy Burney

Been through the struggle, paid dues with my life

Cards on the table, it’s my game so you better fold

I made this road

My blood, sweat, and tears pouring like burning liquor

I’m on that new shit and you’ll always be on the old

I paved this road

I made this road

With both feet on the ground, one step at a time

My aim is on point and I’m going for mine

Spitting hit after hit drop 'em every season

Change the game as we know it

Now they all wanna be him

I’m not standing for nothing I wouldn’t fight to the death

Your words are garbage makes me wish I was deaf

I live it line for line, every rhyme for rhyme

The top was wide open so I made it all mine

Take a shot at the boss, your career is a loss

Hell, a billion dollar budget couldn’t fix what you brought

So take it back to the start and look deep in your heart

Cause y’all don’t have what it takes to make a place on the charts

Been through the struggle, paid dues with my life

Cards on the table, it’s my game so you better fold

I made this road

My blood, sweat, and tears pouring like burning liquor

I’m on that new shit and you’ll always be on the old

I paved this road, I made this road

I made this road

No genre can hold this sound in my soul

See what I’ve become is more precious than gold

The value’s unknown cause it’s never been done

But I know that it’s hot

It shine bright as the sun

I been there and won most things that you dreamed

Crossed over crossovers and shit on mainstream

I fight for a team whose struggle is real

The future was uncertain as a 360 deal

We delivered the proof and paved our own lane

We took what was ours, and gave up the fame

We planted a name and built it to grow

We call it the future, you know it as Smo

Been through the struggle, paid dues with my life

Cards on the table, it’s my game so you better fold

I made this road (I made this road)

My blood, sweat, and tears pouring like burning liquor

I’m on that new shit and you’ll always be on the old (on the old)

I paved this road (hey)

I made this road

I made this road

Been through the struggle (oh yeah)

Yeah I fought with my life (oh yeah)

Cards on the table (put ‘em down yeah)

Yeah I played ‘em just right

Been through the struggle, paid dues with my life

Cards on the table, it’s my game so you better fold

I made this road (I made this road)

My blood, sweat, and tears pouring like burning liquor (hey)

I’m on that new shit and you’ll always be on the old (old)

I paved this road

I made this road
