Lyrics
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Expression of affirmation or agreement
Yurrih
Introduction of the artist, Yurrih
Coming with a different vibe (Yeah)
Stating a unique and different musical vibe
You know life is a gift, that's why you should always live in the present
Life is a gift, emphasizing the importance of living in the present
Say it, say it
Repetition for emphasis
I am the gift (Yeah)
Self-affirmation as the "gift"
I am the gift (Yeah)
-They say apple doesn't fall far from the tree
Expressing uniqueness, strength, uncertainty, and a search for direction
Well look at me
-I'm unique, too different from my peers, I should be
-I ain't weak, I'm someone you should fear, I agree
-I should seek, for my path it's not clear, I can't see
-Used to be in a slumber, now I am woke
Transformation from slumber to alertness, success, and financial stability
Built momentum all through summer, I am not a joke
-I can put you six feet under, you don't want the smoke
-Paid my taxes counted numbers, I'm no longer broke
-Everyone wants to try me, but never talk price
Dealing with challenges, avoiding unnecessary conflicts, and precision in actions
They can't wait until they search me, but don't look twice
-I don't know what I'm doing but I don't need advice
-Only reason I'm missing cause my aim not precise
-Coming from humble beginnings
Coming from humble beginnings, belief in oneself, and awareness of deception
Why they still mumble their way in
-I can make it, I'm believing
-Many real niggas deceiving
-They still buying a roley but forget the time
Observations on materialism and self-worth
I am way too pricey cause I am a dime
-I am the gift (Yeah yeah)
Reiteration of being a gift, staying grounded, and valuing the present
Been a blessing, never a burden
-I am the gift (Huh yeah)
-Born in May 1997
-Nigga I am the gift (Whoa yeah)
-Both feet on the ground, living in the present
-Life is a gift
Reinforcement of life being a gift and the artist being a gift
I am a gift
-Had nothing planned last summer, I've been staying in
Reflecting on past and future summers, personal growth
I'm excited for next summer cause I'm traveling
-Working on myself, every block I'm tackling
Gratitude, overcoming challenges, continuous self-improvement, and achieving dreams
Thank you to the homies, that's still listening (Listening)
-Every test is challenging
-Every day I'm practicing
-Every skill I'm mastering
-Every verse is damaging
-Every show I'm dazzling
-Every dream I'm conquering
-Every thing I'm managing
-It's all meant to be happening (Yeah)
-This is my time
Claiming one's time, acknowledgment of uniqueness, seeking guidance
I've been made from clay but I'm still a dime
-I'm the first from my family, guess I am a Prime
-Asking God for guidance, waiting for a sign
-Money is a tool, it runs out in time
View on money, career challenges, expressing truth through music
Never been promoted, I can't seem to climb
-I can speak my truth, I don't need to rhyme
-I choose to do it with music, it is not a crime
-I am the gift (Yeah yeah)
Reaffirmation of being a gift, grounded living, and appreciation of life
Been a blessing, never a burden
-I am the gift (Huh yeah)
-Born in May 1997
-Nigga I am the gift (Whoa yeah)
-Both feet on the ground, living in the present
-Life is a gift
Reiteration of life as a gift and self-identification as a gift
I am a gift
-I respect woman to have them twerking in my videos
Respect for women, addressing personal behavior, pursuit of happiness and wealth
Representing them like they queens is how my shit goes
-I was raised by one that's why I have great manners
-I will use this verse to address this matter
-I can't help it but stare at what her momma gave her
-I'm just a man ain't a reason for my bad behavior
-Trying to find my happiness while still chasing paper
Balancing personal life, avoiding role model status, and gratitude for friends
Don't want niggas looking up to me, I'm not their savior
-I am not a role model, look up to God
-YOLO never been my moto, it ain't that hard
-I used to finish gin bottles with the whole squad
-My friends are a bit awful, at playing COD (Yeah)
-It's okay though
Expressing gratitude for support and determination to continue the journey
I am very grateful for their support and they know
-This is my journey and it all began a year ago
-I don't stop, light's green, so I go
-I am the gift (Yeah yeah)
Final reaffirmation of being a gift, gratitude, and embracing the present
Been a blessing, never a burden
-I am the gift (Huh yeah)
-Born in May 1997
-Nigga I am the gift (Whoa yeah)
-Both feet on the ground, living in the present
-Life is a gift
-I am a gift
