Lyrics
They don't wanna see you with yo'
People don't want to see you succeeding.
They don't wanna see you.. better, naw
They resist the idea of your improvement.
They don't wanna see you with yo' head up, they don't wanna see you living better, nah
Opposition to your progress, both mentally and in your living conditions.
Gotta keep my focus, I can't let up, & so I'm writing with devotion like a letter now
The artist emphasizes the need to stay focused and dedicated, comparing it to writing a heartfelt letter.
It's okay, I can see the way, gotta seek the face because I'm tryna eat today
Despite challenges, the artist recognizes the importance of seeking solutions and faces difficulties with determination.
Told Him put that on my plate, I'm just tryna keep my pace
Expressing reliance on a higher power for sustenance and maintaining a steady pace.
Can't get out that secret place because the opps been seeking play
A reference to a private, sacred space, guarded against adversaries.
So you know I keep that code on me, how could I fold homie?
Emphasizing loyalty and resilience in the face of challenges.
That Spirit po'd on me, but that narrow road lonely
A spiritual experience has influenced the artist, highlighting the isolation of the righteous path.
Locked in with the bros only, God sent, I ain't no phony
Surrounded by genuine companions, the artist feels a divine purpose.
Steady rising, I ain't froze homie, I be watching like the folks on me
Maintaining progress despite challenges and scrutiny.
Ain't an option, I'ma go wherever He tell me to go
Commitment to follow divine guidance without hesitation.
Just praying for wisdom so that I can listen whenever He ready to flow
Seeking wisdom through prayer, remaining receptive to divine inspiration.
I ain't saying that I'm better than most, I was dead 'til He gave me the ghost
Recognition of personal transformation and spiritual rebirth.
Now I'm led by the heavenly coach, tryna let all my relatives know
Guided by a higher power, with a desire to share this wisdom with family.
I won't even get to cappin' for anybody, just speaking the light of my life, I then seen about it
A commitment to authenticity, sharing personal experiences without exaggeration.
And no, I never seen the body, but I be the body and so I gotta be about it
Identifying with a collective body, expressing a commitment to live according to spiritual principles.
I won't trip on a thing, I'm just seeking the Kingdom and know what I need provided
Focusing on spiritual goals rather than material concerns.
I'ma stick to my lane, 'cause as long as I'm breathing I'm following Jesus' guidance
Staying true to one's path, guided by the teachings of Jesus.
They don't wanna see you with yo' head up, they don't wanna see you living better, nah
Reiteration of the resistance and opposition faced by those striving for improvement.
Gotta keep my focus, I can't let up, & so I'm writing with devotion like a letter now
Continued emphasis on maintaining focus and dedication through challenges.
It's okay, I can see the way, gotta seek the face because I'm tryna eat today
Recognition of the importance of seeking divine guidance for sustenance.
Told Him put that on my plate, I'm just tryna keep my pace
Repeating the reliance on a higher power for sustenance and maintaining a steady pace.
Can't get out that secret place because the opps been seeking play
Reinforcing the need to guard against external threats and maintain a sacred space.
