[Intro: Atlas] No one ever said it'd be easy No one ever said it won't take no time No one ever seemed to believe me Yo, yo, yo, yo [Chorus: Atlas] No one ever said it'd be easy No one ever said it won't take no time No one ever seemed to believe me No one ever thought that I could make those rhymes And no one ever said it'd be easy No one ever said it won't take no time No one ever seemed to believe me No one ever thought that I could make those rhymes [Verse 1: Atlas] Young, dumb hooligan, go and make a fool of him Self once more, fuck, bored, back to school again Finna drop out before it starts 'cause it's foolish When my squad makes gem shit I'm feelin like a jeweler’s friend Cooler than your average but this here is my crop And rap shit to Atlas is like Cyclops to eye drops I just wanna chill up in my room while I write lots And leave at 3 AM to hit the Denny's or the IHOP I might not present myself as cogent when we meet face to face But I'd rather lay awake than waste away and age in grey And talents in the balance and that's difficult to take away No matter how often you debate my case Homie screamin' "Break his face!" Man, y'all know that ain't protocol, boy More the type for swordless fights and battles with the ballpoint I'd rather hit the mall than sit and argue over small points And if you're interested then you can all join Why not? [Chorus: Atlas] No one ever said it'd be easy No one ever said it won't take no time No one ever seemed to believe me No one ever thought that I could make those rhymes And no one ever said it'd be easy No one ever said it won't take no time No one ever seemed to believe me No one ever thought that I could make those rhymes [Verse 2: Samsa] Samsa's silky smooth like almond milk Tongue like Brahmin shaman smoke They used to say "Don't use big words, you'll alienate the common folk" Now I speak through marble monuments and Aristotle quotes Multilingual linguist go from Navajo to java code to lava flow to vámonos Cats who used to hate ask me to feature now I respond with "Hey what's up dog, comma, no" Used to live off of ramen bowls, Totino's rolls and Domino's Now I vomit comic books and namaste's and homophones When I was young my mom would pump Apocrypha through chakra flows Slip scriptures in her casseroles and gospels in my pocket holes Grew up a provocateur since I was four My mom would buy me picture books and literature From bodegas and corner stores Used to read about brontosaurs Or green macabre army corp Or superhero conflict wars, or chupacabra carnivores Hanging off my bunk bed I would read until my arms were sore Hoping one day I would have a story or accomplish more [Chorus: Atlas] No one ever said it'd be easy No one ever said it won't take no time No one ever seemed to believe me No one ever thought that I could make those rhymes And no one ever said it'd be easy No one ever said it won't take no time No one ever seemed to believe me No one ever thought that I could make those rhymes
