Favored Ain’t Earned by MIG1274 - Zona

Lyrics

Yeah…

Uh-huh…

Let’s get uncomfortable.

Second Shift Samurai Squad…

This facts talk.

⸻

📝 VERSE 1 (establish the target archetype)

You a year in and still move like a liability,

Same fat mistakes wrapped in “potentiality.”

They keep patting your back for existing,

I keep fixing your fuckups — that’s the difference.

You fuck shit up, they call it “learning curves,”

I clean it afterward — no praise, just nerve.

You get grace, I get expectations,

Same building, different calibration.

(pause)

You ain’t changed.

You just stayed.

Same output, different excuses made.

Favored ’cause accountability scare ’em,

So they’d rather lower standards than prepare ’em.

⸻

📝 VERSE 2 (explicit reality dose)

Let’s be real — you lazy as fuck,

But they protect your feelings, so you lucked up.

You do the least, still leave proud,

I do the most, still move unavowed.

You heavy everywhere except where it counts,

All that weight but no measurable amount.

You mistake survival for skill,

But surviving ain’t shit when you stallin’ the mill.

(pause)

You ain’t solid, you insulated,

Wrapped in comfort they cultivated.

You don’t earn trust, you borrow time,

Then smile like that shit divine.

⸻

📝 VERSE 3 (system + favoritism)

They don’t check you ’cause it’s inconvenient,

Truth create waves — they prefer complacent.

So they reward the weak for consistency,

And lean on me when shit hit deficiency.

You stay employed ’cause they hate confrontation,

I stay overtime ’cause shit need salvation.

You the proof effort ain’t required,

Just be likable and mildly inspired.

Second Shift Samurai Squad behind this talk,

We build structure while you stall the clock.

You proof favoritism rot from inside,

I’m proof discipline don’t need disguise.

⸻

📝 VERSE 4 (pure cutthroat)

Ain’t no jealousy — it’s disgust.

You ain’t build shit, you adjusted to dust.

If effort was currency, you’d be broke,

If results was air, you’d choke.

(pause)

You ain’t feared.

You ain’t respected.

You tolerated ’cause you undetected.

That’s not power, that’s neglect,

And I’m the one they call to correct.

Overtime Oni — facts stay heavy,

I talk plain ’cause truth land better.

You favored ’cause pressure break ya,

I get called ’cause pressure shape us.

⸻

🎤 OUTRO (low, final)

That ain’t hate.

That’s measurement.
