Lyrics

You don’t really live like that
You don’t really live like that, quit the act now
You don’t really love it like that
Push to come to shove I’ll outwork your ass
Just punch in, then punch out
Punch in, punch out
Just punch in, then punch out
Punch in, punch out
You could treat me like lil bro
But really you fit the role
Passive aggression heard enough of you speaking in code
Things that you never could know
Switching up based on the sole
Numbers and clout, but I move in a different mode
They talk shit but don’t walk shit
Propping up lames like they artists but they not shit
Think they bigger than they are, anorexic
When I grow past they be crawling back desperate
I don’t it for the mentions
One size couldn’t fit all the way that you project it
Could give a fuck about your guest list
I’m a mainstay on stage dive for my credit
I take a risk, as routine
Your advice never made a hit
Still gotta slide for my home
I’m Sho in this bitch
'Cause I know how they pitch
Scheming how this game as a whole imma flip, off
You don’t really live like that
You don’t really live like that, quit the act now
You don’t really love it like that
Push to come to shove I’ll outwork your ass
Just punch in, then punch out
Punch in, punch out
Just punch in, then punch out
Punch in, punch out
Seen some K-pop rappers tryna act like they’re black
Growing dreads talking struggle when there’s nothing attached
Tryna feed off a culture that you don’t understand
We can hear through the verses you just tryna react to trends
Line in the sand for the sake of the art form
Every doubt against me let me shatter them on tour
Inauthentic MCs better knock it off
Tryna act Louis V when you at the Ross
If you frontin like that it gotta take a toll
Insecure from the jump just the way it goes
Takes one to know one
But learned to stay true when the cameras get shined on
I could dap you up but let me stick to my crew
Never had a doubt about the way that we move
I could take a joke but you never catch me playing the fool
Speak my truth, meanwhile Tyler think I’m mocking him too
