lyrics

(Torae)- Yea
(Kaspa)- yea that's that smooth shit right there
(Torae)- ah-huh
(Kaspa)- come on now you know who it is
(Torae)- Torae (Mr Green) Kaspa what up
(Kaspa)- yo what up Tor let's get this thing started
(Torae)- no doubt homie
(Kaspa)- you know we're lucky to something that a lot of artists don't have
(Torae)- what's that

We got independence and it delivers such a purity
the freedom of expression lets them dream of possibilities
an unrestrictive path without the strings attached
the honing of my craft it reflects on every track
what a luxury to have I write my scattered thoughts
that very night I bless the mic of course recite while Mike records
pause oh shit that was it right there yo you got that right Mike
(Mike- haha yea big boy) yea no doubt
no pre made song arrangements or someone yelling say this
we need to make some changes for the sake of being famous
nah I write what's in my heart see it's all I've ever known
I'll build a name for being nameless before I ever sell my soul
though that really ain't my goal I'm so content with this
I'm really just a fan who's blessed to work with others he respects
who keep the underground alive surviving with a pulse
arrive with quality results that's why I idolize them both
see they lack to compromise in fact that's how I can relate
with every song I make gives me the privilege to create
though it ain't an easy road from studios to shows
work a 40 hour week and see how easily that goes
the funds are gettin low your times becoming limited
but you fail to notice you're so focused you don't give a shit
you're doing it your way and with every paid
gratifies you deep inside so satisfied with what you made
that's all that matters anyway and if I never make a profit
that's cool when I started that's all that I wanted

(Mr Green cuts)

Torae... this is the story of a champion
Mr Green...this is the story of a champion
Kaspa...this is the story of a champion
everybody... champion

(Torae verse)

Yea...uhh
on my independent grind work for my independent shine
and when I get it then I spend it cause it's mine
every nickle and dime comprised from every lyric and line
to the stage out the booth from the mind from the grind to the shine
and still ain't no time to recline cause that story of a champion is mine
they said I wasn't amped then they lied
cause when I hit the stage I behave like the very first time
from that very first rhyme to 20 thou sayin' my shit
on my premier I got it done that was the day that it clicked
now I ain't wealthy I'm just independently rich
off the albums and the tee shirts and the sales of them tix
so I salute to team Torae ya'll all are recruits
we an army so we bombing till it's through
I'm mobbin' to the stu just to spit cause with or without a hit
me Kaspa and Mr Green want the chip on our independent shit

(Mr Green cuts)

Torae... this is the story of a champion
Mr Green...this is the story of a champion
Kaspa...this is the story of a champion
everybody... champion
Torae... this is the story of a champion
Mr Green...this is the story of a champion
Kaspa...this is the story of a champion
everybody... champion
