Into the defect
The reason
The source
Of all this
Mysery
And extract it
Forever
What heals me kills me
I'm a natural assasin
A massacre in action
I've never known remorse
Or felt any compassion
This is my drug of choice
The reason demons rejoice
My rage remains a beast untamed
I bet you'll remember me now
Glutton
I am heartbreak and depression
Regret without redemption
A wounded animal
Afraid of my reflection
I am an epidemic
This is a crime of passion
The willing weak deserve defeat
The penance will be savage
I bet you'll remember me now
Bi-polar
Self-abortion
Mind fuck
Can't escape
These chains
Of shame
I'm stuck
Swollen in the mud
Barely
Standing still
Hungry for the hunt
And the thrill
Of the kill
Come on
I've always been a shadow
Content with my disease
You'll never see it coming
'Cause you never notice me
Unload
Words are the remedy
What heals me kills me
The plague rages on
I've built myself out of ash and agony
I am ready
I am my own creation, I am, self-made
Destroyers
I am I
A bone heals
A bruise fades

Born a survivor, like father, like gun
Built to outlast where you came from
Nothing comes easy when nothing is handed to you
Taught yourself how to turn the tides
Walk ashore before the waters rise
Even when you're down, you're still coming through
Making diamonds out of dust
You'll shine before you turn to rust
Never by the book, always underestimated
It's hard to believe the life that you created
Self made
Learned from the will of the working man
Breaking hard ground for a piece of land
Up before the sun and down before the rising moon
Oh fought for the things that were never yours
Settle for less and hope for more
God and pouring rain never come too soon
Making diamonds out of dust
Who you are is who you trust
Never by the book, always underestimated
It's hard to believe the life that you created
The impossible endeavor never would you trade
It's a legacy that you take to the grave
Self made, self made
Live and die by the chance we're taking
Money don't buy the life that we're making
Never by the book, always underestimated
It's hard to believe the life that you created
The impossible endeavor never would you trade
It's a legacy that you take to the grave
Self made, self made
Live and die by the chance we're taking
Self made
Money don't buy the life that we're making
Self made
Live and die by the chance we're taking
Self made
Money don't buy the life that we're making
Self made
Live and die by the chance we're taking
Self made

What you saying?
I'm not thirsty for a attention, I see you checking for me
I'm not impressed 'cause I know what I'm worth
More than a stare or a flash of your keys
Best believe I can do my own thing
Solo in the whip see me drop top coopin it
Ask about me they say K.Michelle be doing it
Face it, homie, I ain't never been basic
Shine like a light and my swag is amazing, oh
I do my own thang drive my range
Pay my own bills 'cause I got my own change
Ten stacks in my purse wrapped in rubber bands
In the club popping bottles 'cause I'm the man
I'm a self made chick
What cha saying? what cha saying?
A hundred on the wrist let me teach you a lesson
Nothing came easy to me I guess I'm blessed with
(The drive to go get it)
I be stutting like my daddy
And losing not an option I'm in it to win it
Never be a bust it, baby
Take it for what its worth still F you pay me
Hell yeah, I'm the man but I'm still that lady
And there's no way I'ma let you play me
I do my own thang drive my range
Pay my own bills 'cause I got my own change
Ten stacks in my purse wrapped in rubber bands
In the club popping bottles 'cause I'm the man
I'm a self made chick
What cha saying? what cha saying?
If you a self made chick who got hatas in the place
Look 'em dead in the face and say?
(I'm on it)
If you a self made chick who got these dudes on the chase
Look 'em dead in the face and say?
(I'm on it)
I'm on, I'm on, yep, I'm on
[Trina:]
I'ma self made chick , i did it all on my own.
I aint get no handouts check the name on the thrown,
Ms. Trina, aka call me amazinn
or ms independent i don't need you for nothin,
nada, nothin, i grind like a nigga do.
24/7 so i stay undefeatable,
get my own chips & my name on all my whips
while the bank account gain interest so the money flips,
ain't nobody stoppin me, but me
you know i gotta hustle, gotta get it, gotta eat.
me & K Michelle on the grind every week,
reppin hard for all the ladies who self made the street
yeah,
I do my own thang drive my range
Pay my own bills 'cause I got my own change
Ten stacks in my purse wrapped in rubber bands
In the club popping bottles 'cause I'm the man

I'll love this world today
And I'll hate it tomorrow
There's nothing sacred to me
There's nothing to make me stoop
No one wiped my ass
And I don't turn the other cheek
I love daydreaming
But it's my policy
to make my dreams come true
No more if's
Zeros try to determine our fate
But their jaws will drop sooner or later
All this carousel of absurd lies
Is nothing but paddling in shit
And the next thing they know
I'm wallowing in cash
I hear it's never as bad as it can get
Right, status quo suits me fine
This is the very end
Of all the meaningless platitudes
just a required accessory anyway
Stay where you are my friend
Don't even want to know the reality

[Intro: Talking - Rick Ross]
Self made
Gotta handle your own
I'm a handle mine
[Verse 1: Wale]
They tried and tell me I don't fit up in this motha fucka
Cause Rozay been talkin white he think he Uncle Ruckus
I laugh at Jimmy, they was spending silly with my budget
And now I'm rolling with some cooler niggas I can fuck with
You by the cooler yea you niggas don't get no tick
Bitch I think I'm Teen Wolf
A dog nigga, ballin' bitch
Fly as Ricky steam boat
Me and my Moschino
I don't wear no 501's
1000 dollar jeans flow
It's funny I'm gucci man all the slates gone
I'm winning cause Ricky made my mistakes known
It's funny that since I put this chain on
These bitches appear quicker than state farm
Wale Folarin somethin they can't ever smoke
Weed I can't pronounce man
This shit would leave Rosetta stoned
This man can single handedly save the culture
You got no spark you need some lighter man you sammy sosa
So get it right ok you ballin and I'm with the owners
You know my drive is retarded like I'm riding doughnuts
Picture me rollin'
Young, handsome and focused
Got that vision of pac
And though my branding is Oprah
Michelangelo portrait meet Mia Angelou notebook
Michael Jordan performance nigga I dream to be all of it
Yea, I'm just a poet with some hangtime
I don't really shakespeare
I just shake dice
Miami nights, made a couple grand
Private plane TSA can kiss my ass
Lord forgive me I'm trying know I ain't living right
But this card I'm trickin' with got no limit right
In this life you dead wrong or ain't living right
They on my ass like a center make them take a hike
[Verse 2: Meek Mill]
It's MMG baby
The dream team
I made it myself
Guess I'm self made
Fire starter put me anywhere I just blaze
Dropped out of school never made it to the 12th grade
I'm so fucking raw haters hoping that I catch AIDS
Motivated just from being broke
Had a dream like Martin Luther, little bit of hope
If Sam Rosen never rolled and Malcom never spoke
They'd probably find me in the woods hanging from a rope
Instead the lock me in the cell just for sellin dope
When people used to ask if I was signed I would tell them no
Cause I was never hesitant to represent
Devil knocking at the door screaming let me in
Tell the owner hit the locks when we stepping in
Charlie Sheen on them haters, they don't wanna let me win
Nah, niggas they don't wanna let me win
But I'm a build it ground up, once again
I kill these rappers early in the game, abortion
Spit a verse like lemme get ya fam, extortion
Send these niggas back to when they came, deportion
Make'm forefeit and I'm porshin 600 horses
911, somebody call'em
Kemba Walker crossem over, somebody fallin
Jump back, I hit the shot, somebody ballin
I'm at the dealer and I hear that Maserati callin
Black and white diamonds looking like my neck be vollyballin
And this presi lookin like somebody pottied on it
I don't gotta join illuminati just to get a new Bugatti
I'm just ridin I done put a thousand miles on my body
[Talking: Rick Ross]
Born to win
Look around
From the projects to the penthouse
Our vision never changed, we self made
Count that up
[Verse 3: Pill]
Self made self paid man
P-I double L in the building
8 in the morning when that street clock bust
Kitchen overload
Door knob turns
The aisle burn baking soda pourin'
The clientele buy and sell like a pawn shop
Profit margings increase
Agent to beat with my gun out
Out witted, out foxed you over matched
House hidden, drop tops the sofas match
This is fine dine take out
First date make out
Diamonds blind the lens and camera men on the stakeout
As I enter the steak house pockets on humongo
Philosphical drama and wildin known as the congo
Africana, Black as Ghana, be my attire
Mary water, marajuana that stick to get higher
We blow stress through the vessel, the Marriott
We self made, carry on while we carry out
[Rick Ross:]
If I woke up tomorrow and didn't have a dolla
As long as I have my heart I can get it all over
Dream team
We the 93 chicago bulls baby

Do you know
Do you know
That this is the end?
I know you are not going
To get down on your knees
You're not going to repent
But hey!
You left me with nothing
So there's plenty of things to regret
'Cause I was fighting
I was fighting
I was fighting
But you left me for dead
There was a time
When I saw light in you
There was a time
When it was all about you
But we're not getting closer
We're just getting older
We're going to perish in the flames
Is it worth it?
Is there anything more I can say?
To make you see that you should see
What it was that you were doing to me
Oh, but everything is different now
And I'm not who I used to be
Well, the change is that I need you
Just as much as you ever needed me
Hey!
There was a time
When I saw light in you
There was a time
When it was all about you
But we're not getting closer
We're just getting older
We're going to perish in the flames
And until you grasp
What it is that you do
Everyone you need in life
Will fade away from you
'Cause we're not getting closer
You're just getting older
You're going to perish in the flames
This is this is
What I'm dreaming of
This is this is
What I'm dreaming of
This is this is
What I'm running from
This is this is
What I'm dreaming of
This is this is
What I'm running from
This is this is
What I'm dreaming of
This is this is
What I'm running from
This is this is
What I'm dreaming of
This is this is this is this is
This is this is
What I'm dreaming of
This is this is
What I'm running from
This is this is
What I'm dreaming of
This is this is
What I'm running from
This is this is
What I'm dreaming of
This is this is
What I'm running from
This is this is
What I'm dreaming of
This is this is

[Talking: K-Rino]
Who is your master?
Heh Ha
Who made you?
The man who paid you the one who made you?
C'mon
Self Made
Self Made
[Verse 1:]
No conformant controls the currency that I'm earning
Permanently stay determined to burden with every sermon
See my words be up where the words be verbally free
And I'm the turn to speak on whatever concepts that serve me
They wanna brain-cuff a king and bring pain and suffering
Any time an angel starts to fly they try to cut it's wings
Look at all these slaves with they fractured arms up and slings
After being vigorously snatched up by the puppet strings
They can't tempt me I'm a turn down wherever they show me
K's the man rebellious slaves that'll never saytobe
Youse a hooker and ya pimp left ya powerless
Telling you how and what to write in our address
No more enslavement cause I'm beyond the massa-patient
Shaping God's form by hear no other's hands creation
We crack Adam's or Leech's who try to track it's talents
We leave the children behind and kidnap the parents
The vultures who holding the prophets is outta control
Violence explode instantly when you try to get vole
Got a big hole left in size in yo soul
Forget diamonds and gold you better raw sliding down the pole
In a glance you went from twenty-thousand ball parked fans in the stance
To greet costumers wearing Wal-Mart pants
No man can provoke and rearrange my panel
No governmental remorse can ever change my channel
Because I'm
[Chorus:]
Self made, self paid, no change can hold me
My brain and my body and mind NO powers control me
I'm the self-invented true definition of independent
My vessel is like a fortress serine allow in it
Cause I'm self made, self paid, no change can hold me
My brain and my body and mind NO powers control me
I'm the self-invented true definition of independent
My vessel is like a fortress serine allow in it
[Verse 2: Trae]
Cheyah
Definition of true call between the streets of reality (reality)
This illogical guru I be damn on the causality (I'm a causality)
Catch us to revolution of niggas who just don't give a damn
Never selling they soul about a diamond catch a couple grand
Last time that I checked I was a man but unlike some of y'all
Never ran from someone who do the same knowing they two can fall
These niggas out they prostituting for radio play
Gay is what that is to let them vanish yo freedom away
Freedom of speech, look at what happened with me for speaking out
I still to fight the Banner for those in need reaching out (c'mon)
The community is they veins and the streets is part of they wrist
The truth is within the heart and the soldiers come with the rest
Now I'm riding in this car on the way to face with Collide (I'm ready)
Even if I lose it all get what's inside the trunk can fly
And I bet they remember me one of the only ones who self made (Trae)
And tell em I said fuck em and they money cause I'm self paid (ha ha)
[Chorus:]
Self made, self paid, no change can hold me
My brain and my body and mind NO powers control me
I'm the self-invented true definition of independent
My vessel is like a fortress serine allow in it
Cause I'm self made, self paid, no change can hold me
My brain and my body and mind NO powers control me
I'm the self-invented true definition of independent
