[Intro – hype ad-libs]
Yeah… ayy, Shadow on the beat
Let’s get it…
[Hook – catchy rap/singing blend]
Got the weight of the world on my name (on my name)
Still I rise out the dirt through the pain (through the pain)
I was stuck in the storm, now I’m bringin’ the flame (flame)
Ain’t no breakin’ me down, I was built for the game (yeah)
Put respect on my name (on my name)
Put respect on my name (on my name)
I done bled for this shit, I done prayed for the fame
So you better put respect on my name (on my name)
[Verse 1 – hard rap]
Came up from nothin’, they ain’t give me a chance
Now I’m drippin’ in the hustle, watch the way that I dance
Every scar on my skin, it’s a part of the plan
Turned my pain into gold, now I’m countin’ these bands
Fuck a hater, I just level up again (again)
Every L I took turned into a win (a win)
City on my back, I been carryin’ the weight
Still I smile through the pressure, yeah, I’m built for the hate
[Bridge – melodic switch]
They don’t know the nights I cried (cried)
They don’t know the pain inside (inside)
But I turned it to fuel for the ride (ride)
Now they watchin’ me climb, yeah, I’m alive
[Hook – repeat with more energy]
Got the weight of the world on my name (on my name)
Still I rise out the dirt through the pain (through the pain)
I was stuck in the storm, now I’m bringin’ the flame (flame)
Ain’t no breakin’ me down, I was built for the game (yeah)
Put respect on my name (on my name)
Put respect on my name (on my name)
I done bled for this shit, I done prayed for the fame
So you better put respect on my name (on my name)
[Outro – whispered/echo FX]
Respect on my name…
Yeah…
