Lyrics

I remember being asked a lot by like a
Lot of different magazines and shit like
"Why don't you incorporate your race, your ethnicity
Like where you've grown up into your music?"
I don't identify with that shit, like my identity is the music
Everything that you need to know about me is in the music
My home is the music
It's where I originate, it's where I
Fall apart, it's where I come to life
Back in the booth let the tragedy end
Switch up the team let the magic begin
Told all you haters I'm in it to win it
Way back when them losers weren't letting me in
All of these bitches is mad at me so
Money appear now they magically foe
Honestly really can't pay it no mind
Because spending that time means I'd rather be broke
I'm out here living my passions and more
Witnessing pieces that pass through my soul
Nothing can irritate masters like literally
Showing them sadness can turn into growth
Haters gon' hate when you winning and shit
Dumb pretty bitches they tend to forget
I'm out here yelling bitch look at me now
I was born from the ground now I'm stuck in the clouds
Fourteen whole albums a trip out to Spain
High in the clouds bitch I'm going to rain
Just a year later still fucking these haters
While facing my fears no more running from pain
Haters on sight so I'm gunning with aim
I'm not fucking with bitches who stunting for fame
You can catch me out ruthless and something deranged
Ain't it funny how suddenly something can change?
You gotta make the decision to be the one
Difference in your life and turn it around
Turn it around, turn it around
Even when you feel you dumbing it down
You gotta make the decision to be the one
Difference in your life and turn it around
Turn it around, turn it around
Even when you feel you dumbing it down
Back when the preachers said change was to come
All non-believers prepare to be sonned
Not talking Jesus but honest to God
I bet I'll reach my prime before Ellie's my lung
Switching up bitches adjusting my flow
Go against me and get wrecked from the go
All of you bitches keep taking your shots
But if one come at me then it's straight for your throat
Harder than nipples on bitches of brow
Deity swag and omnipotent style
Don't fuck with my bread and don't fuck with my head
'Cause it gets to that point that I'm fiercely foul
Promise you people that evil's a lie
Wish you could see what I see with my eyes
All of the demons that be in my mind
So I purge all my bridges then cut all my ties
Said I would do this back when I was nine
Said I would do this before I got signed
Said I would give all these lost kids and doubters
A reason and purpose to question they lives
Look where I am and then look where I've been
Tell me that I am not destined to win
Never give power to none of you cowards
So tell me what you think my destiny is
You gotta make the decision to be the one
Difference in your life and turn it around
Turn it around, turn it around
Even when you feel you dumbing it down
You gotta make the decision to be the one
Difference in your life and turn it around
Turn it around, turn it around
Even when you feel you dumbing it down
Gone for a minute but back on my grind
Promise you are no match for my mind
Took all my doubt whipped it into submission
And forced my ambition to step in the line
I know that they do not want me to shine
I know that they do not want me to climb
I know inside that being a boss
Mean making these bitches get back on they jobs
Can anyone fuck with me now? No
How do these bitches respond? Don't
Looking behind us seeing me now
What do they think I'm beyond? Dope
I just been taking my time slow
Being alone with my mind flow
Putting the concept of all that's inside me
Into this shit I've been designed for
Crossover pivot I'm back in the game
NASCAR on bitches I'm tracking my lane
Focused on bridging the gap
And showing the youth all the ways to accomplish their dreams
Know how it feels when they kicking you down
And it's getting you down
You gotta make the decision to be the one
Difference in your life and turn it around
Turn it around, turn it around
Even when you feel you dumbing it down
I know it's hard to be adamant too
When you stand out like a sore thumb in the crowd
Ow, no **** and bitches and quitters allowed
Pour all inside you into the survival of
Your dreams until you are living them out
Everything that you need to know about me is in the music
My home is the music
It's where I originate, it's where I
Fall apart, it's where I come to life
