Am Em

'Cause most see the vision and I give reasons to believe

Dm C

That I’m honest, I’m honest, I’m telling no lies

When I say I’m up next, I’m not just for the ride

Am Em

Never a point when I questioned my mind

Know what I’m doing, I planned for this time

Dm C

Come up regardless, I’m coming regardless

I’m hungry, I’m starving, remaining a topic

And you gon' just know that I’m speaking to you

Shouldn’t have got so ahead of yourself

Now you’re losing your cool

I know that you know that I’m right

You admitted that I am the truth

Am Em

But look you at you now, look at your face

Looking sad in the booth

Dm C

Signed off a tape, toured off a tape

Did it alone, and I ain't touched a plate

Am Em

You was my nigga, we could have been great

You so far gone, got you thinking you're safe

Now you gon' watch from the crowd

Lookin' up like the rest

[Chorus]
