Yo, you see I'm posted in the corner like a stop sign
They used to call me names, now I'm in they fuckin' top five
You the one abusin' me, how the fuck it make sense
That when I push you back, you pussy out and call the hotline?
Nowadays, I sit and wonder why I'm even rappin'
People keep on tellin' me it's probably not gon' happen
My fanbase expanded when I dropped "I Lied"
I ain't lyin' when I tell you motherfuckers that I'm always snappin'
Goddamnit, I'm in a position to make a livin' I'm giving it tenfold
They tryna stop my grind, I'm standin' on my ten toes
I know you know my stories start to finish, yeah I been broke
And all the torture that I been through that only my pen knows
I used to do shows with no one except my fam in it
Used to look through windows, now I'm lookin' out them laminates
I just graduated in May, I couldn't handle it
Contemplated suicide daily but now I manage it
Now it's never smokin' and drinkin', it wasn't for me
My cousin died of heroin, he wasn't even forty
I been tryna talk to God, it feels like He ignores me
I guess you get abandonment issues when you live poorly
Lansing where I'm from and where I'm reppin', don't come near me
I'm workin' 'til I rather D-I-E, I'm never weary
You don't have to like the way I'm seem when I'm in purse of itWhen I get in the booth, you motherfuckers gonna hear me!
So we gon' be okay
Yeah, we gon' be okay
Sooner rather than later, hit that fastbreak and lay up
Made it off of shit we made of
Been basements, late nights, we stayed up
So we gon' be okay
Yeah, we gon' be okay
Sooner rather than later
Sooner rather than later
You see I'm posted in the corner like a stop sign
Every beat I touch is in the coroner, you cappin' when it's crunch time
I'ma be okay, I'm fine
I never dug myself in a hole that I can't climb
I'm calculated, y'all so thirsty
You fake the facade, you ashamed of your journey
This gon' be my greatest achievement
I'm goin' back to work to practice what I'm preachin'
Had my days in Ibiza, eatin' paella
God was blessin' me but I was skippin' my prayers and restin' on my laurels
Tellin' stories but they missin' morals
Livin' fantasies so why am I missin' normal? This backwards
We all do it for the look, we actors
We absurd, rather get the likes than the answers
Y'all keep the first take, I'ma have the last word
Apollo takin' off and ownin' all his masters
And never got his Bachelor's and writin' all of his chapters
And fuck anybody that feel a way about it
Y'all just some dudes that never made it
Y'all never sacrificed nothin'
Y'all 'bout to find out where we can take it
If you hatin', you better be innovatin'
Who the fuck is you if you ain't take your own advice?
How the hell did Packy do it? He must be playin' with loaded dice
All I ever hear is excuses, a bunch of losers
All I do is give it time and they go poltergeist
Been here for a decade, how am I the nicest in the city still?
People talkin' what they'd like to do, they never will
I'm real as they come, I just happen to rap
I put a couple people on and I got stabbed in the back
I shoulda known this industry is shady
I learned a lesson though, that lesson is to just remain me
I could be flippin' burgers, still be the same person
Still put the same work in, this how I know that we gon' be okay
So we gon' be okay
Yeah, we gon' be okay
Sooner rather than later, hit that fastbreak and lay up
Made it off of shit we made of
Been basements, late nights, we stayed up
So we gon' be okay (Ooh)
Yeah, we gon' be okay (Ooh)
Sooner rather than later (Ooh)
Sooner rather than later (Ooh)
So we gon' be okay
