Look at how I’m living now
Heavy on my neck, every diamond got a different sound
I seen love turn fake, I don’t even take it personal now
Too much paper round me, I can’t let no pretty face blur me out
Woke up with a new glow, woke up on some blessed shit
Honor over everything, pain stamped on my chest and shit
We was in the fire for real, I was built for the pressure
They was laughing at the vision, now the team applying pressure
Ask me how I’m feeling now, how I’m feeling now
Came from sleeping cold, now it’s marble floors and city views
Ask me how I’m feeling now, how I’m feeling now
I done turned that hunger into money, what it did to you?
[Verse 1]
Back when winter hit, I had no heat, just a sheet and faith
Now it’s lobby lights, penthouse heights, and expensive plates
Same ones used to doubt me got opinions every time I’m up
Same ones silent every time I score and run the numbers up
Mama still praying for me, know her son done seen some sins
Courtroom stress, paid the suit, walked out clean again
Ain’t no love in this game, gotta read through every grin
They won’t clap when you building, they just watch and wait to see you bend
I was in the mud, now the wool coats thick in every season
Used to starve through nights, now we eating just because we breathing
Room costs four figures, steak cut like a celebration
Hard times gave me scars, but that pain became the motivation
[Hook]

[Verse 2]
I’m the one for real, I ain’t gotta sell it, they can see the proof
Made it out the dark, now every step expensive when I hit the booth
They was hoping I would drown, get swallowed by the trench life
Now I back out blues on bad days just to get my head right
Used to move too wild, now I’m careful, got too much to lose
Money from the art, every word turned into revenue
Neck froze, wrist lit, but the mind sharper than ever too
Had to learn when pressure hit, stay solid, never let it move
Old heads taught me keep composure when the room get tense
How to stack it, how to clean it, how to grow it and make it stretch
Came from crumbs, now it’s large amounts touching every account
Haters sick, can’t believe I came this far from where I started out
[Bridge]
Funny how they talk when you down, then freeze when you rise
Funny how they vanish when it’s dark, then pop out for the shine
I took every cold night, every loss, every scar
Turned it to a roadmap, now I’m way too far
