Lyrics
Yeah, look
I just wanna make a living, I just wanna do it right
I'm just tryna take what isn't given, pass the oversight
I'm just tryna make a killing, didn't happen overnight
They talk about my name so much, they start to get an overbite
I got to ask you
What's your motivation?
Are you driven? Are you bold?
Can you turn this into something on your own?
I got to ask you
What's your motivation?
Is it riches? Is it gold?
Is it something you can find within your soul?
I got to ask you
What's your motivation?
Is it music? Is it love?
Maybe not or maybe all of the above
I got to ask you
What's your motivation?
Is it faith in the beloved?
Is it something you don't plan on giving up?
So, tell me what's the drive you got within you
Where your mind is off and sent to
When you broken down, about to drown
It's hard to push, continue
I can tell you mine it's easy
When it's packed inside a venue
And I gotta give my all
You know I'm balling just like Kemp do
'Cause I'm super like them Sonic
Slam a beat, they call me Onyx
Then I hit it like a three
Ray Allen from the corner pockets
Saving legacies, ain't no way you're testing me
Chest to chest
I'm better than the best, they call me MVP
More valuable and potent
And then the stars you see on TNT, MTV or BET
Man, they gon' remember me
That's 'cause I am the centerpiece
My point is I'm a shooting star
They tryna guard my energy
My powers far from small
I'm moving forward, you can't intervene
This ain't just black and white
So earn your stripes just like a referee
I'm not who you pretend to be
I'm grounded, and I'm gifted
'Til the day they wanna bury me
They made I'm moving cleverly
Mad, they tryna make me into something that I'll never be
Control my own fate, I'm taking charge of my destiny
Laid the path that set for me
The seven deadly sins could never hinder or diminish me
The nouns words, and verbs are getting coupled with the similes
This is real life, ain't nobody ever simming me
I'm a different type of entity
When confidence has entered me
A future goat is what I'm gonna be
The crystal ball has christened me
Until the day I leave my legacy
Look
I just wanna make a living, I just wanna do it right
I'm just tryna take what isn't given, pass the oversight
I'm just tryna make a killing, didn't happen overnight
They talk about my name so much, they start to get an overbite
I got to ask you
What's your motivation?
Are you driven? Are you bold?
Can you turn this into something on your own?
I got to ask you
What's your motivation?
Is it riches? Is it gold?
Is it something you can find within your soul?
I got to ask you
What's your motivation?
Is it music? Is it love?
Maybe not or maybe all of the above
I got to ask you
What's your motivation?
Is it faith in the beloved?
Is it something you don't plan on giving up?
I got to ask you
What's your motivation?
Are you driven? Are you bold?
Can you turn this into something on your own?
I got to ask you
What's your motivation?
Is it riches? Is it gold?
Is it something you can find within your soul?
I got to ask you
What's your motivation?
Is it music? Is it love?
Maybe not or maybe all of the above
I got to ask you
What's your motivation?
Is it faith in the beloved?
Is it something you don't plan on giving up?
I got to ask you
What's your motivation?
Are you driven? Are you bold?
Can you turn this into something on your own?
I got to ask you
What's your motivation?
Is it riches? Is it gold?
Is it something you can find within your soul?
I got to ask you
What's your motivation?
