Lost my pops, that pain cut deep, but I ain’t foldin’ (nah)
Had to learn the hard way, kept my heart from goin’ broken (yeah)
He told me, “Boy, go get it”—now I’m focused, ain’t no jokin’ (uh)
Life hit hard, but I’m a soldier, keep it movin’, never frozen (nah)
Grindin’ every day, I ain’t got time for the stress (no)
Used to be down, now I’m up, now they know I’m the best (woo)
Used to wanna quit, but now I’m takin’ every step (huh?)
Had to turn the pain into hustle, now I’m stackin’ every check (check!)
(Verse 2 - Picking Up, Building the Energy)
I been puttin’ work in, had to level up (yeah)
Used to dream ‘bout the money, now it’s up, up, up (up)
See ‘em watchin’, see ‘em talkin’, but they stuck, stuck, stuck (nah)
Used to struggle, now they love it when I’m pullin’ up (skrrt)
She ain’t love me when I was broke, now she callin’ for the bags (nah)
She don’t care about my feelings, only care about my cash (cash)
I was loyal from the start, now she tryna play me bad (huh?)
I ain’t trippin’, I just focus on the paper that I had (let’s go!)
(Verse 3 - Fast-Paced, Real Talk)
Lost my pops, but that just made me cold (cold)
Now I’m chasin’ everything I want, I’m on that road (let’s go)
Had to grind to build it up, ain’t nobody gave me gold (nah)
I got demons in my head, but I ain’t ever lettin’ go (woo)
(FASTER, NO STOPPING)
Had to cut a couple people off, they movin’ shady (shady)
Now I’m focused on the bag, I’m gettin’ paid daily (paid)
She was tryna play me, now I know she want the gravy (yeah)
But I’m standin’ on my own, I ain’t lettin’ nobody play me (nah)
Grew up fast, now I’m seein’ things I never thought I’d see (never)
I been steady runnin’ up, now it’s time to get the key (key)
They was laughin’ when I struggled, now they tryna ride with me (woo)
I just pray I keep it movin’, I can’t let ‘em close to me (nah)
