[Intro]

Ayy, 2000, E-S-T

That's that O-C-O-E-E

Mm-mm-mm

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, huh


[Chorus]

Better sit down if you can't stand me, mm

This a God plan, ain't no plan B

Huh, Spirit gon' take the wheel just like an AMG

Huh, took my time to heal, but now I'm on my feet

Huh, they don't want me, they wanna control me

Yeah, they don't want me, they wanna control—

They don't want me, they wanna control me

Treat you like my past, you can't hold me


[Verse 1]

All my pain, I would bury

Way too long I would live in that house of pain like Tyler Perry

Thought I was strong, but it was too much weight I couldn't carry

No X-Men, I was just goin' through storms, Halle Berry

Now they think I'm arrogant 'cause I ain't use they way

I'm like David, I just need my sling, don't need your armor plate

God prepared me in that wilderness, them giants gon' get slayed

Try to tell me we can't do it, we gon' find another way, promise


[Chorus]

Better sit down if you can't stand me

This a God plan, ain't no plan B

Huh, Spirit gon' take the wheel just like an AMG

Huh, took my time to heal, but now I'm on my feet

Huh, they don't want me, they wanna control me

Yeah, they don't want me, they wanna control—

They don't want me, they wanna control me

Treat you like my past, you can't hold me


[Verse 2]

I'm from the O, but I'm not in Chicago

They think it's luck, I ain't playin' the lotto

I see the ship they ain't sayin' a lot of

They try to differ, they stay in the bottle

That type of heart keep you way at the bottom

Talkin' to get a react

They got a whole lot of time to go talk on the net

But where your consistency at?

Like, do what you do with the time that God gave you

You'd rather hate on folk

Me, I just look at the answer and I get to work, I can't wait on folks

Goin' up in age don't mean you wise, that just mean you old

It's easier to learn without no pride, I had to let that go


[Chorus]

Better sit down if you can't stand me

This a God plan, ain't no plan B

Huh, Spirit gon' take the wheel just like an AMG

Huh, took my time to heal, but now I'm on my feet

Huh, they don't want me, they wanna control me

Yeah, they don't want me, they wanna control—

They don't want me, they wanna control me

Treat you like my past, you can't hold me
