[Verse]
Feelin' like a QB, with a bad O-Line
Wonder how my town would be, with no Mi
Being hustled, like drugs in the trap
So much problems and that’s why I rap
People act like they’re my friend when they're not
Then go off saying that they keep it real
I feel right above the country, T dot
Feel like I’m bald cuz I wonder what’s the deal
The last thing I need right now is some hatin
Just do you I don’t mean masturbatin'
Last thing I wanna do is sell my soul to satan
I’m already going through my mental mayhem
I remember writing raps up in the lunchroom
Cuz sooner or later I knew I'd be high up like the moon
And soon my social life wouldn't have much room
I hoped my older friends didn't find out, imagine such doom
The crowd continues to cheer the catchy flow at the songs moves along for a few seconds, after the beat taps onto. The song quickly begins to pick up, the beats recoils and Miami starts walking off of the stage podium.

I’m under so much pressure right now
Cuz right now I don't even measure right now
I hope I’m giving you some pleasure right now
Life is a nice lady don't mess with her right now
The song adds in a trap like beat as the song continues picking up buildup. A large swoosh comes along and enhances the beat and bursts into an uplifting and loud hip hop melody that shoots through the arena as Miami yells out pressure as she explains pressure having a toll on her and whether or not she feels as if she is good enough Miami raps clearly through the microphone The dancers stand up and continue to move around Miami. They then find their places next to Miami and break into choreog

Now I'm so damn high, all I do is work
All that pre-pre-pressure really fueled this girl
Running the game like Mike, I'm MVP of the mic
All that pre-pre-pressure really fueled the vice
(All that pressure)
(All that pressure)
(All that pressure)
(All that pressure)
(sure-sure-sure)[Verse]
I remember being asked what will be my career
I never would say anything really sincere
Didnt wanna tell em there’s a star in here
So I would say I wanna be an office worker
Feeling like everyone I meet is a future onlooker
I would hold a notebook and say it’s for school
They look inside of it and see it’s full of raps
I tell them that its poems, I know it’s uncool
But they know I wanna be a rapper who am I to fool?
Now I got everyone asking for a freestyle
Then I feel like I’m in the movie 8 mile
Come up with raps off the head, ya'll just brag
And poor guys bragging bout money makes me gag
Definition of a dreamer is me
Look in my eyes and you’ll see
At this point, the lights in the crowd are no longer pink and white but are now only white and going throughout the arena. Miami walks to center of the stage and her dancers follow her.

One day you'll reminiscence at the dark days you muscled
Now your stronger and your accustomed
