[Intro]

Heard they was missin' me

Heard you were dissin' me

Well, yeah, yeah

Fuck with it


[Verse 1]

I remember wishin' I could sit at the Grammys with

J and B and Rihanna and Chris, be part of the clique

Second guess myself and all my shit like, "Do I really fit?"

3 Grammys later, I guess I must be pretty good at this

Way, way back in school I was referred to as the weird one

But they cannot deny that music when it hit their ear drums

See 'fore they knew I can sing, ignored by the bad ones

Suddenly they're handin' me vagina like, "Have some"

Suddenly I'm famous, rich, I'm rich and famous folk

Suddenly the world is tellin' me my music dope

10 years later, several million albums sold

Catch me laughin' at these niggas like they told a joke

They doin' anything to go viral

Sell they soul and they dignity for likes though

Tried to tell 'em if there's one thing that I know

Is that they key to your survival is that you be humble


[Chorus]

(Hol' up, hol' up, hol' up) sit down, be humble

(Hol' up, hol' up, hol' up) sit down, be humble

(Hol' up, hol' up, hol' up) be humble

(Hol' up, hol' up, hol' up) sit down, lil' nigga be humble

(Hol' up, hol' up, hol' up) hey, sit down, hey, be humble

(Hol' up, hol' up, hol' up) hey, sit down, hey, be humble

(Hol' up, hol' up, hol' up) hey, sit down, be humble

(Hol' up, hol' up, hol' up) hey, sit down, ayy, ayy


[Verse 2]

Who is this nigga think he frontin' on Ne-Yo?

Get the fuck over yourself, check your ego

I didn't change, I evolved, get it right

I wrote a song and it changed your whole life

Year of the Gentleman, it made them pull their pants up

Made them wanna dress nice, made 'em get a haircut

Then I transform into somethin' more than R&B

I became music and that's where they couldn't follow me

This shit way too crazy, popped a urban AC

You's a one trick pony, not my fallen homie

Music is a mansion, much room for expansion

I explore the mansion in one room, just standin'

Why? I am Grey Poupon, I'm Evian, I'm high brow

Been inspirin' these dudes for a while now

Never said it 'cause I never thought I had to

But since they talkin' shit, I'm glad to, nigga, be humble


[Chorus]

(Hol' up, hol' up, hol' up) sit down, be humble

(Hol' up, hol' up, hol' up) sit down, be humble

(Hol' up, hol' up, hol' up) be humble

(Hol' up, hol' up, hol' up) sit down, lil' nigga be humble

(Hol' up, hol' up, hol' up) hey, sit down, hey, be humble

(Hol' up, hol' up, hol' up) hey, sit down, hey, be humble

(Hol' up, hol' up, hol' up) hey, sit down, be humble

(Hol' up, hol' up, hol' up) hey, sit down, ayy, ayy
