[Intro]

You say I'm saving your life every time it's pourin'

I'm okay with it, thank you; don't crown me for it

Yeah, I'm driving a foreign, still paying for it

Broke down again, my drive kept me going

Yeah, I hear the whispers, yeah, I hear the talks

If I give it up, I'll give it all to God

Have a lot to clean, I'm messin' up a lot

If it doesn't break you, you're not at the top


[Chorus]

I can tell you now, I've been feeling fine

I'm just focused on the grind, yeah

Everybody gonna come and go, yeah, happens all the time

No more playing these games

No more playing these games

Look how far we all came

All I gotta say is

You ain't bringing me down, you ain't bringing me down

You ain't bringing me down, you ain't bringing me down

You ain't bringing me down, you ain't bringing me down

I see the moment, yeah, I need it now

All I gotta say is, all I gotta say is, you ain't bringing me down


[Verse 1]

Yeah, I've elevated to a higher level

The stomach flu in this industry—I'ma never settle

I pop, in a couple of minutes I need me a sponsor 'bout kettle

You ain't real if you got a Geppetto

Say I'm surrounded by competition but it seems like I'm runnin' through meadows, agh!

They run their mouths when they got nothing to talk about

Look in the mirror, like how could they stop me now?

Looked up to Heaven, forgot what I'm crying 'bout

I don't take answers from people who give me doubts

Used to be scared what they thought when they listened

The shots that they gave me gave me ammunition

Passin' the limits, we dogs among kins

See what they can't see, we call that a vision

Same team, same fit when I roll out

You didn't want me back then, what you want now?

You can buy the kicks, can you ball out?

I'ma run the game 'til you see me crawl out

Used to wish upon a star

'Til I decided to be one, the moment I need one

It's not what's been done before but what you overcome

What do you wanna become?


[Chorus]

I can tell you now, I've been feeling fine

I'm just focused on the grind, yeah

Everybody gonna come and go, yeah, happens all the time

No more playing these games

No more playing these games

Look how far we all came

All I gotta say is

You ain't bringing me down, you ain't bringing me down

You ain't bringing me down, you ain't bringing me down

You ain't bringing me down, you ain't bringing me down

I see the moment, yeah, I need it now

All I gotta say is, all I gotta say is, you ain't bringing me down


[Verse 2]

This is tough on the mind but I'm built for the task

Like, who goes to the gym not expecting to sweat?

Who steps on the court that's afraid of the net?

Who lives for a dream just to be like the rest?

Answers don't come if you're taking a guess

Work 'til there's nothing left, I want another set

If you're still standing there, you're not tired yet

Oh yeah, I feel it now

The lights are gettin' brighter, I hear the crowd

I hear the drums, your heart's beatin' loud

You got the moment, can you make 'em proud?

Everybody said it wasn't possible

Everybody never saw this comin'

Never stop, now I feel unstoppable

Takin' shots, honey season's comin'

I don't need no one to give me a crown

I don't need no one to build me a throne

I don't believe you're a king of anything if you're not the one who built it his own

Same style, same casts

Comin' quick, news flash (Coming for)

Prime time, game time

Bright lights, new heights

I'ma build my throne


[Chorus]

I can tell you now (Yeah!), I've been feeling fine

I'm just focused on the grind, yeah (Yeah!)

Everybody gonna come and go, yeah, happens all the time

No more playing these games (Woo!)

No more playing these games (Yeah!)

Look how far we all came (Yeah!)

(Look how far we came, look how far we came!)

All I gotta say is

You ain't bringing me down, you ain't bringing me down

You ain't bringing me down (No!), you ain't bringing me down

You ain't bringing me down, you ain't bringing me down

I see the moment, yeah, I need it now (Woo!)

(I see the moment, yeah, I need it now)

All I gotta say is, you ain't bringing me down
