Lyrics:
Knew it’d be happening just how I wrote
Look up you not even close
Trust me I seen it a long time ago
But back then they say West blowing smoke
It’s always the ones that be doing the least
For some reason they talking the most
Jumped off the cliff, it ain’t no going back
To be great gotta just burn the boats
She told me baby you blowing up I said I know it
I gotta stay on my path I don’t talk I just show it
Won’t let the women the money change me or my focus
Win for my family my people that’s mando you know it
Fuck all distractions I’m chasing my spot
Knew that the Industry’d gimme my shot
Don’t get it twisted this not new to me
Plotting for years what I already seen
Burgundy red poppa pouring a toast
Only been chasing what I want most
Never forget how you got to the dance
Now I’m here please don’t act like we’re close
Ain’t no such thing as halfway
Lord knows that never turned into cachet
Manifest destiny, make what I see
That’s what you get when you’re dealing with me
Crown in my hand, they be watching my moves
Seeing me winning it’s salt in the wound
Baby they’ll always have something to say
Prove it to no one just do it for you
Oo
Drop top coupe
Bad lil thing says she want me too
She know I’m a come up, penthouse views
Her friends wanna come, I say bring her too
Sold out show, Imma kill that
The Heem backstage Imma chill that
Half measures ain’t never turned into cachet
Coming for that top spot, Imma steal that
A man of my word always do what I say
Never a price I ain’t willing to pay
Burn all the boats, only way up is forward
Die tryna make it or making a way
Knew it’d be happening just how I wrote
Look up you not even close
Trust me I seen it a long time ago
But back then they say West blowing smoke
It’s always the ones that be doing the least
For some reason they talking the most
Jumped off the cliff, it ain’t no going back
To be great gotta just burn the boats
She told me baby you blowing up I said I know it
I gotta stay on my path I don’t talk I just show it
Won’t let the women the money change me or my focus
Win for my family my people that’s mando you know it
