[Verse 1]
Laugh in my face
Talk in a circle
Smile for the pic
Plot in the purple
Hand on my back
Eyes on my plate
Text me “I’m proud”
Hope that I break
[Pre-Chorus]
You see the highlight
Not the hurt
You see the diamond
Not the dirt
You see the moment
Not the miles I bled
You see the crown
Tryna climb on my head (yeah)
[Chorus]
Friends and enemies
So many friendenemies
Waiting for a crack in me
To cash in on my energy
All of this hard work
Time and sweat on my shirt
You weren’t there on those nights I bled
Now you reach for what I worked for instead
[Verse 2]
You never called
Back when I fell
Now every win
You ring like a bell (hey)
“Bro
We’re a team”
Soon as I shine
Funny how love
Shows up on my time
[Pre-Chorus]
You see the keys but not the lock
You see the stage and not the walk
You see the gold and not the grind I shed
You see the feast
Never saw empty bread
[Chorus]
Friends and enemies
So many friendenemies
Waiting for a crack in me
To cash in on my energy
All of this hard work
Time and sweat on my shirt
You weren’t there on those nights I bled
Now you reach for what I worked for instead (yeah)
[Bridge]
I keep my circle small
Like the trust I got left
If you ain’t there in the fall
You don’t eat with my steps
I’ll keep building in silence
Let ’em talk
Let ’em guess
’Cause what I earned from the grind
Stays guarded on my chest
[Chorus]
Friends and enemies
So many friendenemies
Waiting for a crack in me
To cash in on my energy
All of this hard work
Time and sweat on my shirt
You weren’t there on those nights I bled
You can’t touch what I worked hard for
What I worked hard for
What I worked hard for (yeah)
