How long it take for y'all to realize I'm a hidden gem, that I'm really him

That I do this for real, I make music that heals instead of kills

Manifest your mindset instead of poppin' pills

All that party music, saturated, fabricated, over-exaggerated

Say anything to make you think that they made it, man it's aggravating

I said it once, 26, what a life this is, I dropped enough songs this year to have my greatest hits

I'll show you what patience is, make you rearrange and think about who your favorite is

Now I'm 27, tryna change lives, pour out my soul here on every session, can't waste a second, I've been counting blessings, I've been learning from lessons about what true success is

Fast forward now I'm 28 I played the game, I changed the game

I told everyone around me there'll be better days

that'll never change, tell Tyler he needs a raise

I love the way he managed

Now I'm 29 I feel fantastic

But this is everything the future holds

They still don't understand me

I got the game on their tippy toes

Look, from bible verses all throughout my journey I've been learning, as I walk on water and await my verdict

In the public eye I was considered dull

A scared little boy with a panic inside his soul

So a million men told I wouldn't blend, till I bent

Broke so eventually polished became a gem, just a kid who was tense, telling his tribe truthfully

Persevering through fear, his peers put on him loosely

I'm on the loose now things have been looking different

Those who wouldn't turn, suddenly wanna listen

What a critic is, is someone who never loved on themselves

Comfortable with the shelf

You can just hold the sail

While we turn it up like 90 degrees and hoist up the belt

The franchise baby, the story gon' make the mail

From Furlow to fresh green grass I see it now dawg

Let the noise speak, or silence it at the dial tone
