Verse 1
Came from the block, made moves in silence,
Now they RSVP but switch when it’s violent.
Phones blowin’ up, smiles turn to distance,
All that chatter cheap when the pressure’s consistent.
Used to ride for me, now they duck in the dark,
Names on my line changed like they playin’ a part.
Trust cost me nights, loyalty cost me scars,
I keep my circle tight, count blessings, count bars.
Pre-Chorus
Seen the faces flip, like seasons switch lanes,
One minute they real, next they playin’ them games.
I stay watchful, cold when the sun fade off,
Real recognize real — everyone else fall off.
Chorus
Watch ’em switch up, watch ’em change — yeah, watch ’em switch up,
Smiles to snakes, close to cut — watch ’em switch up.
Paper rise, they show they true, or show they counterfeit,
When the lights shine, watch the wolves pickin’ they fit.
Verse 2
They want the shine, don’t want the mud on hands,
Promise to the fam but switch like no plans.
Counting blessings in the rain, still move with a plan,
Seen snakes in the grass, so I learned how to stand.
Money come, people come with motives thin,
Toast to the wins, but watch the ones who grin.
Heard a whisper loud, felt the cold in my skin,
Cut ties clean, let the fake fade like sin.
Pre-Chorus
Loyalty measured in cold weather and heat,
Who hold the fort when the sirens repeat?
I keep my day ones, the rest just receipts,
Lessons cost me nights, now I guard my sleep.
Chorus
Watch ’em switch up, watch ’em change — yeah, watch ’em switch up,
Smiles to snakes, close to cut — watch ’em switch up.
Paper rise, they show they true, or show they counterfeit,
When the lights shine, watch the wolves pickin’ they fit.
Bridge
Hardened heart, but I still ache for the real,
All that shine don’t wash away what I feel.
Pray for the lost, pray for the ones who fold,
But I move like a king, guard what I hold.
Verse 3
Now I move different, silent steps, sharper plans,
No more free passes, no more open hands.
They pop up at dinners, clingin’ to the brand,
But loyalty ain’t sold in a one-night stand.
I keep receipts, lessons inked on my mind,
Can’t be soft when the world redesign.
If you with me through storms, we gon’ shine,
If you switch up now — you left back in time.
Chorus (out)
Watch ’em switch up, watch ’em change — yeah, watch ’em switch up,
Smiles to snakes, close to cut — watch ’em switch up.
Paper rise, they show they true, or show they counterfeit,
When the lights shine, watch the wolves pickin’ they fit.
Outro
Count my losses, count my wins, keep my trust tucked,
Eyes wide, heart closed — always watch ’em switch up.
