Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Mama said “boy
You know”
Right from wrong since way back
Sunday shoes and stiff clothes
Head bowed
Heart off-track
Grew up where the rules bend
Still gotta stand tall
I’m quiet in the corner
But I’m built to take the fall (yeah)
[Chorus]
I know what’s right
I know what’s wrong
But a thug gon’ do what’s needed (what’s needed)
I ain’t alpha
I move deeper
Cold mind
Warm soul
I mean it (I mean it)
Sigma in the shadows
Never off-task
I’m the one who keeps the train on the tracks
I know what’s right
I know what’s wrong
But a thug gon’ do what’s needed
[Verse 2]
I don’t bark
I don’t boast
I just read the whole scene
Shake hands
Watch eyes
Hear the fear in between
You chase the crown
I chase peace
You want power
I want facts
You play king
I play anchor
Make sure steel hugs the tracks (yeah)
[Chorus]
I know what’s right
I know what’s wrong
But a thug gon’ do what’s needed (what’s needed)
I ain’t alpha
I move deeper
Cold mind
Warm soul
I mean it (I mean it)
Sigma in the shadows
Never off-task
I’m the one who keeps the train on the tracks
I know what’s right
I know what’s wrong
But a thug gon’ do what’s needed
[Bridge]
Who gonna stand when it all goes left?
Who gonna step when it all looks blessed?
Quiet ones carry that weight on their backs (on their backs)
Hands stay dirty so the line stay intact
[Chorus]
I know what’s right
I know what’s wrong
But a thug gon’ do what’s needed (what’s needed)
I ain’t alpha
I move deeper
Cold mind
Warm soul
I mean it (I mean it)
Sigma in the shadows
Never off-task
I’m the one who keeps the train on the tracks
I know what’s right
I know what’s wrong
But a thug gon’ do what’s needed
