Lyrics
Ever since I built my buzz
Expressing success and recognition since gaining popularity.
I don't get the same love
Not receiving the same level of love or support as before.
And I told my niggas I ain't never switchin' up
Declaring loyalty to friends and asserting no change in character.
Started with zero niggas, now I'm zero niggas 'cause
Started with no companions, and now back to having none.
Had to get it on my own and they ain't givin' two fucks
Emphasizing self-reliance and overcoming challenges independently.
But I got it from the mud
Repeated affirmation of achieving success from humble beginnings.
Got it from the mud
-I got it from the mud
-I got it from the mud
-And nobody helped me from the start
Highlighting a lack of assistance or support from others initially.
So nobody don't gotta be a part
Asserting independence and not needing others to be involved.
Fuck the other side, there's loyalty in my blood
Rejecting the influence of opposing forces, prioritizing loyalty.
Can't trip about designer 'cause I got it from the mud
Not valuing designer items, emphasizing origin and authenticity.
Sprite dirty, Crush dirty, like I got it from the mud
Referencing tainted drinks, symbolizing a gritty lifestyle.
I owe you, you can't get it from me so take a slug
Owing nothing to others, warning against trying to take advantage.
South Side of my city and I grew up where the wars at
Growing up in a challenging neighborhood with frequent conflicts.
No school but I walked with plenty books inside my book bag
No formal education but carrying knowledge and ambition.
Teacher say I'ma be dead in jail with my lil' ass
Teacher's pessimistic prediction about the narrator's future.
Now she callin' me to do a show where she book at
Ironically, now invited to perform where success is evident.
30K for a show, take fifteen for a feature
High value for performances but lower for collaborative features.
The streets a dirty bitch gotta be hungry or they'll eat you
Describing the streets as harsh and unforgiving.
Gave bro 21 long distance, lawyers couldn't reach it
Referencing a distant relationship strained by legal issues.
He ain't tryna hear it though, 'cause he tired of niggas preachin'
-Ever since I built my buzz
Repetition of earlier themes, reinforcing the journey and success.
I don't get the same love
-And I told my niggas I ain't never switchin' up
-Started with zero niggas, now I'm zero niggas 'cause
-Had to get it on my own and they ain't givin' two fucks
-But I got it from the mud
-Got it from the mud
-I got it from the mud
-I got it from the mud
-And nobody helped me from the start
-So nobody don't gotta be a part
