Overnight

Aw, shit (y'all ready?) Well, look who came to party DJ Drama Symba Ayy, wakin' up to texts from every girl I like Jumpin' out a car to jump back on a flight Think I wouldn't go through hell and back to live this life? You fuckin' right, this shit ain't happen overnight Hard times make us rich and famous But we intend to get more rich than famous (Fuck the fame, get the fortune) Life has its way of pickin' favorites Which makes us take the focus off of what's for us And think of switchin' places Let's take it back to my one-bedroom, TV on the floor (tell 'em) Back when we couldn't see our dreams but knew we wanted more Back when Canard would tell me I sound like I'm from New York And I need a feature from Kafani if I want support He wasn't wrong, that was just his opinion His problem was I saw further than what he envisioned Believe a nigga, the nonbelievers will leave a nigga Win, lose or draw, no mater what That's a me decision, be consistent I gotta watch the way I move 'cause they know who I am Nowadays, my worst decisions could get caught on cam People want to hold you up when it's time to advance Life is short, I can't be out here no tryin' to expand Wakin' up to texts from every girl I like (girl I like) Jumpin' out a car to jump back on a flight (on a flight) Think I wouldn't go through hell and back to live this life? You fuckin' right, this shit ain't happen overnight You fuckin' right, this shit ain't happen overnight See these results? You fuckin' right, this shit ain't happen overnight (take time) Only black boy in first class, goin' to Paris I brought a girl from Oakland to France to smoke on the terrace She can't pronounce, "escargot", I'm sort of embarrassed She think that every old white woman staring's a Karen I used to think a fresh pair of J's was somethin' to cherish Now I rock a fresh pair of J's just to run errands I went from Lake Mary to hoppin' out McLarens Walkin' out of Louis like all this shit is on clearance You gotta believe in you before people believe it first If you never put in the work, then you'll never know what it's worth Today, a rapper approached me and asked me to buy his shirt He was head to toe in Dior, why the fuck would I want your merch? Wakin' up to texts from every girl I like (girl I like) Jumpin' out a car to jump back on a flight (on a flight) Think I wouldn't go through hell and back to live this life? You fuckin' right, this shit ain't happen overnight Back in the '60s Andy Warhol once said "In the future, everybody will be famous for 15 minutes" (You fuckin' right, this shit ain't happen overnight) Boy, was he right You niggas is overnight celebrities And then you fizzle out This here, is hard work Dedication, consistency These results take time Symba (You fuckin' right, this shit ain't happen overnight)
