Recognize Lyrics by Zel Monstrous

Deeper Than Rap

2018

[Verse 1: Zel Monstrous]
I been working real hard like a rock do
I'm the modern day Big, Jay and Pac too
I'm the one you was fearing back in High School
When my shoes had holes wasn't getting no hoes
No name brand clothes nappy headed lil bastard with the flow
Crowd used to gather round just to hear a nigga go
Green light craft flow had the fiends like who your supplier
This shit is fire know these niggas praying that I pass the fire
Competition crying pass the pacifier who you looking at
Is now the rap messiah everything I'm jotting is to satisfy ya
But uh this is passion no enemy will surpass it nah
I know some people that hoping I started slacking nah
I do this shit for my brothers they keep me going why
Cuz I'm the oldest I gotta set an example I
[Hook: Zel Monstrous & Chlo]
Do not think these people really understand me
Never let nobody tell you who you can be
Got a dream pursue it, they might hate you call you stupid
I been out and kept it moving grinding constantly improving
Yeah it's the truth, I supply what they use
This is not nothing new, this is not nothing new
I survive I survive I survive
Imma fly till my goals touch the sky
Every day Imma push Imma grind
Till the gang Recognize Recognize
[Verse 2: Wesley Rocco]
Recognize Recognize, haters just critzite
Living a lie cuz they too scared to realize
All of the goals, all of the lows
Most of our dreams connect with our souls
Striving surviving maintaining the life
Day by day living and dealing with strife
Most of my people continue to fight
Cuz ambitions are burning for all of our rights
Stressing all the time with these visions in our mind
Always steady on the grind people loving how we shine
From the moment we were born
God gave us something special
We were youngins on the come up
Tryin reach these higher levels (let's go)
Every day every day showing the hustle
Anyway any way flexing the muscle
Just a bad kid who was looking for trouble
But stuck in the struggle we just became humble
Always had the voice and a reason
Working hard all day to the evening
Getting busy while everybody sleeping
Staying with the music never leaving
Just kicking flows, stealing shows daily
Ripping foes, making hoes crazy
Getting dough, never slow baby
Got the glow so everything wavy
Around the way, we don't play
Don't forget what the pastor say
Dirty Harry Flow when I rock the stage
So don't slip up and make my day, Recognize
[Hook: Zel Monstrous & Chlo]
Do not think these people really understand me
Never let nobody tell you who you can be
Got a dream pursue it, they might hate you call you stupid
I been out and kept it moving grinding constantly improving
Yeah it's the truth, I supply what they use
This is not nothing new, this is not nothing new
I survive I survive I survive
Imma fly till my goals touch the sky
Every day Imma push Imma grind
Till the gang Recognize Recognize
