Ladies and gentlemen

Yeah

One thousand

Biz busy on the boards

Yeah, I hear 'em cheerin' from the sidelines

Wait, hol' up, I think they hatin', people told me take my time, right?

Nah, they tired of waitin', they say "'Crae, you sold your soul, man"

For real? Who bought it?

"Let the Spirit take control, man"

I don't go nowhere without Him

They scared that I'ma cause these babies to stumble

They scared that my integrity is gon' crumble, appreciate the prayers

But all that pressure either gon' make you humble

Or make you hang out on the sidelines and fear you gon' fumble

Put me in coach, ain't out here flexin' for nobody

I was born to do it, God don't make mistakes and say, "I'm sorry"

He ain't never dropped the ball, I don't never plan to fumble

Catch me runnin' with them lions, Reggie Bushin' in the jungle, ugh

Came from nothin', I remember spendin' summers

On the corner with my cousin shootin' dice and playin' dozens

Me and BJ in that Cutlass, CD playin' missin' buttons

Up at Lincoln High in Dallas with that Jesus Muzik bumpin'

Now it's Joseph graduation

Turn on that radio and T-Dot on the station

I remember when we used to split the rent up

UGK was bangin' loud inside his pickup

Wait, let me pick up

Back when promoters wouldn't let me back in

'Less I pay 'em on a back end, that ain't happenin'

We just pray to God that somehow He would let us crack in

Took that door off of them hinges, told us, "Get it crackin'"

I hear 'em cheering from the sidelines

People told me take my time, right?

Hear 'em cheerin' from the sidelines

Hold up, I think they hatin', people told me take my time, right?

They tired of waitin'

They braggin' they in the buildin'

Ain't buildin' nothin', we out here buildin' the children

You know I love 'em, boy

Spit it how I live, feel it in my breath

Walk it like I talk, put it to the test

Gina, get to steppin', we get to startin'

You dream of bein' a king but you watchin' the wrong Martin, bruh man

This ain't the fifth floor, it's the penthouse

Either you change your outlook or get out

And life ain't never been a dream, you just oversleepin'

If it wasn't hard work, they probably cheatin'

Yeah, give that arrogance some rest

This ain't happen overnight, that's why I do this thing to death

I might do this till I'm deaf, dumb and blind

You know I don't need my eyes to see my faith working fine, never mind me

I ain't worried 'bout how they define me

Long as they can find me they'll never confine me

I hear 'em cheerin' from the sidelines

People told me take my time, right?

Hear 'em cheerin' from the sidelines

Hold up, I think they hatin'

People told me take my time, right?

They tired of waitin'
