Hook:
I got ambition in my bones, I can’t sit still,
See the skyline in my eyes, that’s a big deal.
Turn the pressure into profit, that’s a rich skill,
Either you gon’ chase a dream or you gon’ sit still.
I got ambition in my blood, watch me prove it,
Every setback just a scene in the movie.
They was laughin’ when I started, now they tuned in,
I was broke with a plan, now I’m boomin’.
Verse 1:
I was writin’ in the dark, tryna manifest the light,
Every rhyme was a prayer, every track a fight.
I ain’t never had a mentor, just a lot of doubts,
Just a vision on my wall and a list of routes.
I was DoorDashin’ food, put the tips in the stash,
Hit the stu’ after work, put the pain in the dash.
Didn’t hit overnight, took years in the cut,
Had to learn how to fail, then adjust.
Verse 2:
Ambition got me cuttin’ off the dead weight,
If you ain’t tryna build, you just dead space.
I done skipped vacations just to pay for the mix,
While they out blowin’ money at the club for a flick.
Seen dudes quit when they two steps close,
Said the dream “too hard,” so they back to the old.
Me, I locked in, turned my phone to a brick,
’Cause I’d rather chase a goal than be scrollin’ and sick.
Verse 3:
This that 4AM grind when the world sleep,
When the rent past due and the fear deep.
Still I lace up my faith like some new sneaks,
’Cause I know what I’m chasin’ ain’t a quick tweet.
I don’t need ’em to believe, I know what I’m on,
Every “nah” that I heard made the hunger strong.
So if you see me in the clouds, just know this,
It was all off ambition, not a cold wish.
Bridge:
If they never clap, I’ma clap for myself,
If they never show love, I’ma bet on my health.
All gas, no brakes, ’til it all make sense,
Ambition paid the rent.
