[Intro]

Clipz!


[Hook]

Name a time that I didn't excel

Your hatred ignited a drive

They said that I wouldn't prevail

You say that I'm wasting my time

You don't know what I do in a day

So how can you know what I'll do with my life

All emotion gets hidden inside

I see numbers that you wouldn't like

They're upset and they want us to fail

Seek provision from out of this world

I was dealing with vernier scales

Mosope and Gale, know I didn't bail

They're rating it

Know there's a chance that I'm making it

Produce a quality product from pain

On a path that not many can take

Until I go platinum, I'll be the wave


[Verse 1]

They'll see you once in a while

And for reasons think that they rеally know you

You see and know in part

Car I don't post half of my moves on socials

It's funny how when I found focus

Stuck to the grind, no body was vocal

But thе second you yield a result

Everybody wanna come and try scold you

Standard procedure

I took that L to my chest and I still upheld my demeanour

Stillness sets in the evening

That's how I gained my freedom

Ask how I walk with angels

Same way that I face my demons

It's the reason I'm always temperate

Slanderous words don't have real meaning


[Build]

Witness

God is my witness

I know that I'm gifted

I know that I'm different

I plan the logistics

So my chat is legitmate

Bro said that it's business

I gotta have balance, it's wisdom

I've got talent engraved in my system

And I'm tryna unravel what's cryptic

Lift it

[Verse 2]

To my friend that needed a break

Just know that I'm here and my lines still open

To this day I regret how I was, what I did

But the past can't fix, I just gotta stay focused

I can't rewind time

Well maybe I can but I'll keep things rolling

If I heard that a man mistreat you

I would've put tears in his chest like Logan

A love that I can't explain

A tapped past so my heart does ache

I held on for about 2 years

To find out that you lied to my face

I was filled with rage, but I let it go

Deep secrets I ain't ever told

Would have been peace if you'd never known

But I'd have never grown

Or learned to tether home

And now

[Outro]

I thought that I had my people

In 3 months, he came and flipped it

They said that they loved me

But their whole heart and spirit was telling me different

A whole mix of emotional swirls

When you've grown in a broken system

He's pulling me out

It's best if I yield

If not ima
