Can’t tell me

HOOK

Yeah, I’m up now, they can’t tell me nothin’

Came from the mud, now my pockets on somethin’

Heart cold, I ain’t trustin’ nothin’

If it ain’t about bread, I ain’t rushin’ nothin’

Up now, yeah, I’m up now

Whole lotta pain, but I’m stuck now

Say my name when I touch down

I was broke, I remember—what now?

⸻

VERSE 1

Had to get it alone, no handouts

Late nights, mama stressin’, lights out

Same block, but the vision panned out

They was laughin’ then, hear ‘em fan out

I ain’t changin’, just upgraded

Same heart, but my circle gated

Too real, that’s why they hate it

Talk cheap, I’m not entertainin’

I was down bad, now I’m up next

Move smart, I don’t move reckless

Trust issues, yeah, who’s left?

If it’s fake love, I’ma disconnect

Yeah, I’m up now, they can’t tell me nothin’

Heart cold, I ain’t trustin’ nothin’

If it ain’t about bread, I ain’t rushin’ nothin’

Up now, yeah, I’m up now

Whole lotta pain, but I’m stuck now

Say my name when I touch down

I was broke, I remember—what now?

VERSE 2

I don’t flex for the net, I lived it

Every scar, yeah, I earned every minute

They switch up when they see you winnin’

Same ones disappearin’ when you need ‘em

I stay ten toes, never fold

Pressure on me, but my soul gold

Came too far just to lose control

I been solid, yeah, that’s all I know

⸻

OUTRO

Yeah…

Remember nights I was prayin’ for a break

Now I’m eatin’, still humble, still straight
