[Verse 1]
Yeah, I’m starting to wonder if I lost the hunger
Where’s that kid I used to be when I was on the come-up?
Where’s that drive I used to have before I had the numbers?
Where’s that “Take me as I am, I ain’t gon’ be no puppet”?
Where’s that “Tell it like it is, don’t let the label hush it”?, yeah
Where’s that “Yeah, I know I’m rich, but we gon’ keep the budget”?
Where’s that “I don’t really care about the radio
If they don’t like the song, then don’t play it, I ain’t changing nothing”? (Changing nothing)
Yeah, where’s that person at?
You see him, tell him I’ve been hurting bad
You see him, tell him that I miss the way we used to rap
And I ain’t making music anymore if he don’t care enough to have my back (Have my back)
Yeah, dropping trash
Wouldn’t say that I’ve been doing that
But I’ll be lying through my teeth if I said I don’t think my moment passed
Yeah, I think my moment passsed (Moment passed)

[Chorus]
Am I— on the brink of something great
Or have I lost it?
Am I— on the verge of making waves
Or am I washed up?

[Verse 2]
This small rooms a intimacy, no feeling like it
These old shoes nostalgic, I put my feet inside ’em
The Lord knew I needed this to survive the violence
The raw truth, I’m nothing without the Father’s guidance
“Who are you?”, the question that built this whole empire
“You’re old news”, a statement that makes me think “retire”
The game’s new, so eventually we all have to climb it
One wrong move and— career is dying
Yeah, can I revive it?
Did that check the label gave me make me uninspired?
Am I ignorant to think that I still got the fire?
Am I hanging onto something I should say goodbye to?

Yeah, has my time expired?
Did my prime already pass, or am I ’bout to find it?
Did my peak already happen, or am I still climbing?
Is that passion that I had gone or am I— (Am I—)

[Chorus]
Am I— on the brink of something great
Or have I lost it?
Am I— on the verge of making waves
Or am I washed up?
