[Intro]
Mama crying in the kitchen (yeah)
Late notices on the table
Stomach rumbling like thunder
Prayed the rent stayed paid, though
[Verse 1]
Hand-me-down shoes, busted seams
Learned math flipping packs, chasing dreams
Coach said "school first," streets said "eat"
I chose both, wrote money on the sheet
Food stamps in my pocket like confetti
Swore one day we'd throw real ones heavy
Talking to myself, pacing in the dark
"If nobody give a lane, boy, build your own park"
[Chorus]
Came up out the projects, now we up next
Used to count cents, now we count checks
Turned all of my losses into assets
From EBT to MVP, that's progress
All this pressure turned a diamond out the mud
Had to hustle for my family, for the blood
They ain't see me, now they see me, show me love
From EBT to MVP, I ran it up (ran it up)
[Verse 2]
Water cut off, washing in the sink
Writing business plans with a dollar and some ink
Uncles in the trap, I was taking notes
How to move smart, how to move close
Had a scale on the dresser, Bible on the bed
Two worlds pulling on a tired little head
Told my brother, "Give me time, imma flip this pain"
Now he driving what we used to draw in class, insane
[Chorus]
Came up out the projects, now we up next
Used to count cents, now we count checks
Turned all of my losses into assets
From EBT to MVP, that's progress
All this pressure turned a diamond out the mud
Had to hustle for my family, for the blood
They ain't see me, now they see me, show me love
From EBT to MVP, I ran it up (yeah, I ran it up)
