First Class
Rising Above: The Captain's First Class Journey
Lyrics
First class I ain't playing with you homie
Expressing a serious and focused attitude, not playing around.
Sit back and I kick it with the brodies
Relaxing and spending time with close friends (brodies).
They mad we ain't fake, we don't fold, we don't break
Proud of authenticity, not pretending, not breaking under pressure.
Yeah we stepping at the plate when they calling
Ready to face challenges and take action when called upon.
First class I ain't playing with you homie
Reiteration of a serious and non-playful stance.
Sit back and I kick it with the brodies
Continuing to chill with close friends.
They mad we ain't fake, we don't fold, we don't break
Emphasizing resilience and authenticity in the face of criticism.
Yeah we stepping at the plate when they calling
Ready to face challenges and take action when called upon (repeated).
Wrist empty but my veins on froze
Despite material emptiness, inner strength remains strong.
Love my team but I stay solo
Valuing individuality while loving the team.
People are damn too shady
Observing that people can be untrustworthy or deceitful.
So I remove the safety
Taking precautions to protect oneself from potential harm.
Man I gotta watch my back
Awareness of potential threats, especially from untrustworthy individuals.
I know I got snakes that are in my grass
Acknowledging the presence of deceitful individuals in one's life.
They all trying to be friends when they see my cash
People attempting to befriend for personal gain, particularly financial.
And I think it's sad that it be like that
Expressing sadness about the opportunistic nature of some relationships.
That it be like that
Reiteration of the sadness regarding opportunistic relationships.
I think it's sad that it be like that
Repeating the sentiment of sadness about opportunistic relationships.
I hear chirping where the birds at
Awareness of gossip or rumors (chirping) and questioning loyalty.
Oh you think I'm crazy I ain't ever heard that
Responding to accusations of craziness with sarcasm and dismissal.
Yeah I came up from a dirt bag
Originating from a difficult past but now enjoying success (first class).
But now I'm up here sitting in the first class
Highlighting the contrast between past struggles and current success.
Yeah we be on track
Being on the right path and making progress.
We be making moves
Continuously making positive advancements.
If you don't like that
Indifference to negative opinions or reactions.
My man what you gonna do?
Confidence in personal choices and actions.
I get in my bag, I don't got nothing to prove
Channeling focus and energy into personal goals, not seeking validation.
I do what I want, I don't need you to approve
Independence and self-determination without needing approval.
Two feet down stay ten toes
Remaining grounded and steadfast in one's beliefs and actions.
I stay hot like Red Rose
Maintaining a high level of performance or excellence.
Getting calls from labels
Attracting attention and interest from record labels.
Offers on the table
Receiving offers or opportunities for collaboration.
First class I ain't playing with you homie
Reiteration of a serious and focused attitude (repeated).
Sit back and I kick it with the brodies
Continuing to relax and spend time with close friends (repeated).
They mad we ain't fake, we don't fold, we don't break
Emphasizing resilience and authenticity (repeated).
Yeah we stepping at the plate when they calling
Ready to face challenges and take action when called upon (repeated).
First class I ain't playing with you homie
Reiteration of a serious and non-playful stance (repeated).
Sit back and I kick it with the brodies
Continuing to chill with close friends (repeated).
They mad we ain't fake, we don't fold, we don't break
Emphasizing resilience and authenticity (repeated).
Yeah we stepping at the plate when they calling
Ready to face challenges and take action when called upon (repeated).
