[Hook]
Watch the sun rise
Eyes on the prize we don’t stay down yeah
Yeah it’s my time
Tick tock on the clock we don’t lay round yeah
Can’t nobody stop my shine
You know that I’ll run through
Anything they got in line
You know what I’m gon’ do
[Post-Hook]
Ayy yeah, what I'm gon’ do?
Better yet, you could tell me what I won’t do
‘Cause I’m here like a transfer, not a loan move
Heard all the slander, yeah they’re not true
Wait, half of y’all fall for lies while the other half moving like poltergeist
Y’all the strongеst type, when we can’t see
Timе to sink or swim in the black sea
[Verse 1]
Like Steph with the 3 ‘cause I’m feeling deranged
I might pop any day cos I’m never the same
The mic drops when I die, never retire
On fire, out of line like bald tires yeah
Eyes on the prize like bullseye
Gemini moon, on the loose with my two sides
Yeah let me break bread with my crew, I
Act like a Mayor when they see me in the New Light
‘Cause I’m not the rapper that they thought I was
Not the person that they thought I was
Drove me crazy at the thought of ‘em
Like I Drove Miss Daisy how I stared in the mirror
Reflections of an adolescent
I been real with me and I made a few confessions
Always felt the pressure to excel for my folks
Gotta hold it down or expelled by my woes, look
[Interlude]
And through this time, he realized, what he gotta do
[Hook]
Watch the sun rise
Eyes on the prize we don’t stay down yeah
Yeah it’s my time
Tick tock on the clock we don’t lay round yeah
Can’t nobody stop my shine
You know that I’ll run through
Anything they got in line
You know what I’m gon’ do
[Post-Hook]
Ayy yeah, what I'm gon’ do?
Better yet, you could tell me what I won’t do
‘Cause I’m here like a transfer, not a loan move
Heard all the slander, yeah they’re not true
Wait, half of y’all fall for lies while the other half moving like poltergeist
Y’all the strongest type, when we can’t see
Time to sink or swim in the black sea
[Breakdown]
Back at the bottom, I’m looking up right at the top floor
There’s a lot more
They murdered the rep and the image
The damage is done but I’m back like I’m Jon Snow yeah
[Verse 2]
Look at the past, I could snap every time but I’ll be losing the match
Can’t blame the ref, it’s like a game of chess, if I don’t make it through the test, then I can’t progress
So I’ll crash the ride, no more passengers
I’m the rookie and the vet, not an amateur
Always pay my debts like a Lannister
Toe to toe with my inner demons
Turnt me colder than the Winter season
I’m ice cold to the bone, yeah
White Walker with the flow, yeah
Flip the damn script like they won’t expect
I’ma keep it so real, I won’t miss "the fact"
They can take the shots, watch em all deflect
Fuck the numbers, I’ll earn respect
[Hook]
Watch the sun rise
Eyes on the prize we don’t stay down yeah
Yeah it’s my time
Tick tock on the clock we don’t lay round yeah
Can’t nobody stop my shine
You know that I’ll run through
Anything they got in line
You know what I’m gon’ do
[Post-Hook]
Ayy yeah, what I'm gon’ do?
Better yet, you could tell me what I won’t do
‘Cause I’m here like a transfer, not a loan move
Heard all the slander, yeah they’re not true
Wait, half of y’all fall for lies while the other half moving like poltergeist
Y’all the strongest type, when we can’t see
Time to sink or swim in the black sea
