Say It To Yourself
[Intro]
(Buti on the track)
For real, you know?
Sho
[Verse]
I'm-, dripped out to the very max
You know the boy's in the buildin'
I escaped poverty just from the things that I've written
I couldn’t sit and cry about the life I was given
Couldn't kiss ass, I had to make sure my music was hittin'
I'm not top 5? You gotta be kiddin'
You go on a track and talk crazy, you tired of livin'?
When we were cookin', you would microwave your food for sixty seconds
Ironically, you ain't even been hot in a minute
Uz'bheke n***a, she might ruin your life
If she earns more than you then she's not your type
She only there whеn the times are good thеn she's not your wife
That's why momma say you gotta pick them right
Qhude manikiniki, look at how litty we be
Jiki jiki i-net-worth will be sittin' on thirty millie
Kpheliviki, vele yithi k'lama charts
Sgenwe yini?
Bathi, "Lezi zifike nini?"
Oh you act like you saw it comin'
You see the money, just throw it on me
When it comes to the paper, I do not fold, what's Origami?
Bas'shaya ngomuthi, bayaz'buza ukuthi asibhodi ngani
Phela mina angithakathwa yinomubani (Uhm, bheka)
My best songs are unreleased
My opponents are on they knees
My shoulders are sufferin' 'cause I carry it all on me
I'm talkin' about the rap game
The same one that's gonna spit me out once it's done with me, yeah
I'm the greatest I've ever seen
And I've seen a lot of greats, so I'm not being ignorant, please
If I don't say that to myself, who' gon' say it to me?
Not the OGs especially
'Cause they still want the same girls that we want
Go to the clubs that we go to
Can't ask them for help 'cause we want the things that they want too
As for my success, who do I owe it to?
When no one's tryna co-sign the boy unless they tryna sign the boy
So what do I do? (What do I do?)
Am I entitled for feeling that way?
Entitled for feeling like someone should be leading the way
Two minutes, ten seconds on the beat, that's me bleedin' again
The reason for my persistence is that - Being successful validates my existence
I couldn’t be the joke of the family WhatsApp group
The one who doesn’t contribute on Christmas
I, I sometimes undervalue the things that God has given me
Oh, he must be sick of me
I, I make them rewrite verses the way I rewrite history
Why would they belittle me?
Why you take me for jokes?
After all that I wrote?
Forget pronouns, forget male or female
Boy, I identify as the GOAT
I intensified my approach, as for the throne I keep my eye on it close
And you know it's the truth if it came from my lips
Whoever thought they'd listen to a man who raps with a lisp?
Shoutout K.O. and Stogie T for takin' the risk
S'bonge the big P.R.O wherever he is
I-game ngiyifunda ku Slikour, what level is this?
We gotta have heavily cribs
We gotta drive devilish whips
Screw what an enemy thinks
Do music they can't even skip
As long as our energies mixed, then we can do so many things
But you got ego, I got ego, so we clash
My question is, when are we gettin' to the cash?
(My question is, when are we gettin' to the cash?)
[Refain]
Imagine if I saw myself, the way they see me (The way they see me)
Imagine if I saw myself, the way they see me (The way they see me)
Imagine if I saw myself, the way they see me (The way they see me)
Imagine if I saw myself, the way they see me (The way they see me)
Tragic
[Outro]
It's not like you gonna tell me that I'm dope
It's not like you gonna say I am "that guy", so-
If I don't say that to myself then who's gon' tell me?
