When Tables Turn
Rising from Adversity: When Tables Turn by KARMA RIVERA
Lyrics
I fell down many times I just get back up
I have faced numerous challenges but always managed to recover.
When I needed help wasn’t nobody else to backup
When I needed assistance, no one was there to support me.
Had me feeling like damn why I got bad luck
I felt as if I had constant misfortune, questioning why.
Had to go hermit mode just to get my racks up
I had to isolate myself to focus on making money.
Saw me with me somebody else now you wanna act up
Now that I'm with someone else, you show interest and act out.
Now when I come around you wanna bring her ass up
When I'm present, you suddenly want to involve her.
Legs spread faster than the virus better mask up
Your actions become promiscuous quickly; take precautions.
Only time they close to me is when they bring my past up
People only approach me to bring up my past mistakes.
I made reservations for a table of two
I've made arrangements for a romantic encounter for both of us.
So baby come thru party favors for you
Come join me; I have special treats prepared for you.
I put the work in I be slavin for you
I've put in hard work and effort, dedicating myself to you.
when I’m thirst hits I be cravin for you
When I crave something, it's specifically for you.
I’m still local but I’m rumble with the pros
I may be local, but I compete with experienced professionals.
I stay vocal I’m not humble with my flows
I express myself confidently and don't downplay my skills.
I dig my own dirt so I know when I’m exposed
I acknowledge my mistakes because I unearth them myself.
I really know myself very well and it shows
I know myself well, and my character is evident.
I don’t kiss n tell when I link up with the bros
I keep my interactions with friends private.
they see me doing well they don’t get to see the lows
People see my success but not the struggles I've faced.
what I do in private be the reason for my growth
My private actions contribute to my personal growth.
You gotta go thru it baby that’s just how it goes
Challenges are a part of life; one must endure them.
I love you like I love me, myself and I
I love you as much as I love myself.
Imma do me til the day I die
I will remain true to myself until the end.
Even in the day I’m vilified
Even during the day, I face criticism.
These verses like my spirit guide
My verses serve as guidance for my spirit.
I fell down many times I just get back up
I have faced numerous challenges but always managed to recover.
When I needed help wasn’t nobody else to backup
When I needed assistance, no one was there to support me.
Had me feeling like damn why I got bad luck
I felt as if I had constant misfortune, questioning why.
Had to go hermit mode just to get my racks up
I had to isolate myself to focus on making money.
Saw me with me somebody else now you wanna act up
Now that I'm with someone else, you show interest and act out.
Now when I come around you wanna bring her ass up
When I'm present, you suddenly want to involve her.
Legs spread faster than the virus better mask up
Your actions become promiscuous quickly; take precautions.
Only time they close to me is when they bring my past up
People only approach me to bring up my past mistakes.
