The Stakeout

Doors are opening that were previously locked

Treat this game like any other bitch, I just need me the top!

Always knew that I'd become what I'm becoming

Got one that's got the movers and shakers all in discussion

Peep my percussion

It's no wonder why the 'bands' about to come in

I see y'all fighting, but my fans about to jump in

I been calculating, living in this house with patience

Quaratined myself down here

But now I'm breaking out the basement

Ended up at Lyor's house

Being great is a choice

Always working in silence

Let my success make the noise

I'm on my wave now, welcome to my stakeout

The type of focus where I don't count the days

I make the days count

I can't take the same route

I got this mapped out differently

Well, I can get myself

I won't give you a cut to give to me!

I give it to myself

Put my family on my payroll

Conductor of my train, nothing moves

Unless I say so (Come on)

I had to talk with my mom, she said

"What if you're the one you been waiting for?"

I treat my obstacles like stepping stones

And keep climbing, and climbing some more

Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh

Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh

Yo, no matter what I never lose my ambition

I soldier through the bullshit

Turn my wounds into wisdom

There's some new women itching

For some love and attention

But I'm still scratching the surface

Of my potential

Won't let them fuck with my focus!

I rarely ever like their advice

'Cause they gon' try and dim my light

Because I shine in they eyes

I rather be hated for what I am

Than loved for what I'm not

I wanna give my mom the world

Without worrying about the cost

I'm gonna make it crack

Saving rap, y'all should be ashamed of that

I'm not red or blue

When I say that I cannot 'bang' with that

Hooks, beats, verses

Tell me who the fuck can hang with that

Rappers shooting out the gate so fast

But ain't maintaining that

Yeah, my goals are more and more tangible

This buzz that I'm building's becoming

More and more flammable

About to blow, oh no, you

Should be up on this already

But in case you're not

I'll let you catch up while I sip this Henny

I had to talk with my mom, she said

"What if you're the one you been waiting for?"

I treat my obstacles like stepping stones

And keep climbing, and climbing some more

Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh

Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
