Lyrics

[Verse]
Getting better while tryna just stick together
My momma said I was special, but honestly, I knew better
I'm hardly present and can't remember an exit
I'm constantly second-guessing and asking a load of questions
You know it's hectic when no one can see you stressing
in countless different directions while looking for one to step in.
I think I'm destined for something from my perspective
I'm well respected and blessed with a mother who taught me lessons
Ethics, in a state of depression, I keep rejecting.
Man, it's getting heavy
I ain't walking too steady
I'm praying that I'll get healthy
And lemme tell you it's helping
Lately, it's been a blessing
Something that I can attest to
I don't follow crowds
All I do is get around
I ain't even from the south,
But I'll leave you in the drought
Make it known across your house
From anybody's mouth
Count me out, then prepared to be let down...
Got the talent, I'm really at it
All I do is practice, without distraction
Money coming in, okay, let's get it packed in
Enough with all the bragging, let's get back to action
All this type of baggage, you'd think, one relaxes
But really, that's the average, so um, no relaxing
Paying all my taxes like y'all, and never happy
Need to be a prince to ride off, without a taxi
I struggle with this mental tick
To never quit with all my gifts
So convinced that I was picked
To be legit, not for clicks
I commit to basic shit
That makes some sense, common sense
Paid my dues with every cent
Prayed to god who scheduled it
Gotta keep on pedaling
I'm focused on what's relevant
Like making new developments
That's excellent, elegant
Dealing with the negatives
Tryna make the best of it
I'm not used to settling
But I gotta level head
Time is getting faster, life is hard to capture
Watching every hazard, as I climb the ladder
I'm the one who's getting battered
Up to any challenge
Fuck the chitter chatter
That don't really matter
When I make it happen
The world's a setup
Wait for you to mess up
Turning up the pressure
Now you're getting fed up
You get up
Tryna do better than you remember
Facing a dilemma that puts you down in a blender
Figured making 6 figures could make up a bigger difference
Convince you you're not a quitter and make you less bitter
Stop you from playing victim and stop you from having issues
Push you through harsh conditions, but rarely seeing admittance
Adding up digits like a business
Standing on bidness
Making decisions fuck the system
You've paid attention
Driven by rags to riches
Listen, I got no privilege
Mama works in a kitchen
Fatha worked in the district
Always wanted to pitch in
Mama said wash the dishes
Cost of living percentage
Was going up by the minute.
Nothing was ever given
Stricken by independence
Didn't know how we did it
While facing heavy resistance
I was little with Skittles
And fascinated with pictures
Didn't know what was in us
And how we managed to flip it.
God-given persistence was something
I bore to witness; nothing bout us was different
Nothing except spirit
