Lyrics

(Softly) Yeah… this that moment of reflection right here.
Past, present, future — all them lessons made
Me who I am.
“Hendrix mode…” “yeah…” “we up now…” “woo…”)
Let’s talk to ‘em.
I done seen love turn fake, seen trust turn cold (cold)
Gave my all to the wrong one, left me broke in my soul (yeah)
She was the first to break my heart, first to lie, first to fold (first to fold)
Now that pain in my chest turnin’ diamonds and gold (woo)
Had to learn from the ones who ain’t mean me well (nah)
Had to heal through the hurt they could never tell (nah)
I was drownin’ in the dark, tryna find myself (find myself)
Now I’m flyin’ over pain, I done freed myself (free myself, yeah)
(“woo,” “yeah,” “let’s go,” “I’m free now”)
Every scar I got became my truth (truth)
Every time they left, God came through (came through)
I ain’t bitter, just better, I grew (I grew)
Now I move how a king supposed to move (move)
My past is gone (gone), I ain’t ever goin’ back (no back)
My present strong (strong), yeah, I’m right where I’m at (yeah, yeah)
My future bright (bright), I see blessings on my path (my path)
Took my pain, turned it all into cash (into cash, racks on racks, yeah)
I’m livin’ for my past, present, and future (future, future)
They tried to stop me but I grew through the bruisin’ (yeah)
Now I’m shinin’ like the pain never knew me (never knew me, nah)
God did this, can’t nothin’ move me (woo, woo, woo)
(“yeahhh,” “look at me now,” “I’m chosen,” “woo!”)
Fifty-five K a month, I’m independent, I’m eatin’ (I’m eatin’)
Million streams, no label, no meetin’ (no meetin’)
Whole world watchin’ the way that I’m breathin’ (yeah)
Built this alone — I’m the reason (woo)
They ain’t pick that phone up when I was down (nah)
Now they tryna pull up when I’m outta town (woo)
I thank God ‘cause He never let me drown (never drown)
Now I’m kingin’ in my lane with the crown (with the crown, yeah)
(woo,” “yeah,” “it’s my time,” “talk that talk”)
I was fallin’, He caught me (caught me)
Had to lose to find the real me (real me)
Now I’m prayin’ more, hatin’ less (less)
Only thing I want now is peace and checks (checks, woo)
My past is gone (gone), I ain’t ever goin’ back (no back)
My present strong (strong), yeah, I’m right where I’m at (where I’m at)
My future bright (bright), I see blessings on my path (my path)
Took my pain, turned it all into cash (cash, racks on racks, yeah)
I’m livin’ for my past, present, and future (future, future)
They tried to break me but I proved I’m unmovable (unmovable, yeah)
Every loss I took turned beautiful (beautiful)
Now my blessings lookin’ suitable (woo, woo, yeah)
( “yeah yeah,” “I’m blessed,” “I told y’all,” “this my time”)
Lord, I’m thankful for the pain and the nights I cried (cried)
Wouldn’t trade them days, they built my pride (my pride)
Now my heart pure gold, no hate inside (no hate inside)
They doubted me, but look at me now — I’m alive (woo, woo)
(yeahhh,” “thank You,” “hallelujah,” “I’m grateful”)
My past is gone (gone), I ain’t ever goin’ back (no back)
My present strong (strong), yeah, I’m right where I’m at (where I’m at)
My future bright (bright), I see blessings on my path (my path)
Took my pain, turned it all into cash (into cash, racks on racks, yeah)
I’m livin’ for my past, present, and future (future, future)
I’m doin’ what they said I couldn’t do, yeah (couldn’t do, yeah)
I came from nothin’, made it true, yeah (true, yeah)
Ain’t no lookin’ back, I’m brand new, yeah (woo, woo, woo)
“yeah yeah,” “we made it,” “Hendrix forever,” “thank You Lord,” “it’s up!”)
