Lyrics
I'm putting my life on this
I am fully committed to this endeavor, risking everything.
I'm missing classes, I'm in the studio
I am skipping classes to work in the studio on my music.
Giving advice and shit
Offering advice and insights.
I keep learning from life then go back inside and try to ignite the feels
I learn from life experiences, seeking to evoke deep emotions through my art.
Big bro to the kids who never had big bros, I don't miss
Being a mentor to those without older siblings, avoiding regrets.
I don't follow your rules
I don't conform to conventional rules.
Yeah, they liking the moves
People appreciate and support the decisions I make.
I enlighten the youth
I enlighten and inspire the younger generation.
I stand on my truth
I stand firmly by my principles and beliefs.
Be the light in the room
Striving to be a positive influence in any situation.
Fuck the fear to lose
Rejecting the fear of failure.
Yeah, I did lose friends but a few
I have lost friends, but only a few.
Yeah, I did stupid things but I grew
Acknowledging past mistakes and personal growth.
The people who knew me back in high school
People who knew me in high school recognize my distinct behavior.
Knew I wasn't moving like all of you dudes
Comfortable with not conforming to societal norms.
I'm cool with not fitting in
Acceptance of not fitting in.
I'm cool with not being seen as a nigga who losing himself for the bitches
Not losing oneself for the sake of popularity or relationships.
Clout, that shit a disease, believe me
Highlighting the negative impact of seeking social status (clout).
I pray for my family, pray for my niggas
Praying for the well-being of family and friends.
Pray for my chick and I pray when I'm bigger
Expressing hope and positivity for the future.
I stand on my word when I'm tested like Jesus
Firm commitment to one's word, even in challenging situations.
Humble forever, life is a teacher
Emphasizing a lifelong commitment to humility and continuous learning.
Humble forever, life is a teacher (mmh, yeah)
-Humble forever, life is a teacher (mmh, yeah)
-Humble forever, life is a teacher (mmh, yeah)
-Humble forever, life is a teacher
-Hate me cause I love myself
Facing hatred due to self-love, which others may find challenging.
And that's something you can't do
Self-love is something others cannot replicate.
Need to be saved, you hurting yourself
Encouraging self-reflection and recognizing personal struggles.
Your demons are playing with you and it's sad
Acknowledging the negative influence of inner demons.
You can tell when a nigga living in a cell
Observing the consequences of a person living in isolation or confinement.
Ah, He live in a cell
-Don't need a bottle nigga, you need help
-Don't need to get high, nigga, you need help
Rejecting the notion that substance abuse is a solution to problems.
I see niggas are flirting with death
Noticing others risking their lives recklessly.
Tough talking don't make you a man
Emphasizing that bravado doesn't define true manhood.
Touch me, I'ma step on your neck
Asserting authority and standing up against threats.
Told X, I'm back in my bag
Reclaiming confidence and determination.
They gon' see when the pockets are fat
Anticipating recognition when achieving success.
This shit deeper than that, I swear
Recognizing the depth and complexity of life.
Lately I'm getting no rest
Struggling with lack of rest and constant challenges.
I've been getting my game from dad
Learning valuable life lessons from one's father.
And what I said back then don't matter, 'til death, I call him ma man
Past words remain significant, maintaining loyalty.
Told me, even your fam
Acknowledging the potential betrayal even within family.
Can stab your back to advance
Being cautious as others might exploit relationships for personal gain.
Can't snatch the stuff in my hand
Protecting one's possessions and achievements.
Red sea the struggle, I led
Metaphorically overcoming struggles and leading others to success.
All my people to the promise land
-When I drop, it's going to land
-Yeah
Emphasizing determination and commitment to success.
Humble forever, life is a teacher (mmh, yeah)
Reiterating the theme of lifelong humility and learning.
Humble forever, life is a teacher (mmh, yeah)
-Humble forever, life is a teacher (mmh, yeah)
-Humble forever, life is a teacher
-May my heart not long for what will destroy my character
Expressing a desire to avoid destructive influences on one's character.
Give me wisdom and guidance
Seeking wisdom, guidance, protection, and acknowledging higher powers.
Protect me from the envious
-In the name of the light and truth
-Ah (woo)
-Yeah, yeah (mmh)
Concluding with affirmations and expressions of agreement.
