Couldn't (feat. Emtee)

Damn is about to get nasty

I've been praying everyday

Lord please make a way

Man I been through the pain

Now the people know my name

I did it when they said I couldn't

Got it when they said I wouldn't

Why would they say that I shouldn't?

You get the work that I put in

I did it when they said I couldn't

Got it when they said I wouldn't

Why would they say that I shouldn't?

You get the work that I put in

Some of y'all rapping like y'all still got something to prove

I got over that so you know

I don't like rappers who say they got next

When they've been in the game for 10 years or so

Impressed by the fact that you fake **** famous

You keep finding ways with them favours

Frankly, I'm far from complaining

The faster you make it, the quicker you fall

**** face it, I'm finally buzzing

I was 15 rapping like I was 20 or something

By 2014 I had all of your favourites frustrated

Confused and afraid of the youngin so

Allow me to formally reintroduce myself

Man I done changed, A-Reece the name

I'm getting bigger and better than how you thought I would remain

A whole other lane, with the same ass pace

I'm patient, no mistakes are made

I pray my haters age up to a 100

Just so they can witness me fuck up the game

Rearrange it again, again and again

I've been praying everyday

Lord please make a way

Man I been through the pain

Now the people know my name

I did it when they said I couldn't

Got it when they said I wouldn't

Why would they say that I shouldn't?

Look at the work that I put in

I did it when they said I couldn't

Got it when they said I wouldn't

Why would they say that I shouldn't?

Look at the work that I put in

This shit right here make Somizi go straight

This shit right here makes tomorrow today

Fuck up your plans, make your album delayed

What more can I say?

Ambitiouz done scooped a **** at his lowest

Fam everybody sleeping, I'm finally woke

Fam man this time I really need to focus

I'm tryna be considered as a goal

Speak under oath like I already knew I'm the shit

For real, you got to admit I'm cold as a geys'

I'm colder than June 25th

For real, I just got a deal

Why you acting like daaiden's such a big deal?

Let's be honest, I'm a problem in this game

You rappers ain't the same, you changed the way you rap

Your beat selection is infact inspired by the boy

Congratulations, you're employed

I ain't depending on nobody here but myself

And if I put an album out I swear

It's gon be everywhere but the shelf

I've been praying everyday

Lord please make a way

Man I been through the pain

Now the people know my name

I did it when they said I couldn't

Got it when they said I wouldn't

Why would they say that I shouldn't?

Look at the work that I put in

I did it when they said I couldn't

Got it when they said I wouldn't

Why would they say that I shouldn't?

Look at the work that I put in

I guess when you broke you get bitter

Start throwing shade at the winners

But how can you blame me?

I've been eating peanut butter and jelly for dinner

I guess, I'm here just tryna get rich and then

Move outta my mama crib

I mean, I'm getting older and not any

Younger like Benjamin Button, you dig?

I guess people are quick to forget

They love you, they hate you and love you again, I know

And some of you **** who get on your knees and pray

That I never excel I guess

You gon need a whole other prayer

Cause yes, I'm winning I'm doing so well

I just check out my mail and man it's a movie

We moving, I wish I could share, oh yeah

I done went silent and gave y'all a year to prepare

Sit back and just look at me run some shit

Don't worry cause down at the bottom

I tell you there's plenty of company

I've been praying everyday

Lord please make a way

Man I been through the pain

Now the people know my name

I did it when they said I couldn't

Got it when they said I wouldn't

Why would they say that I shouldn't?

Look at the work that I put in

I did it when they said I couldn't

Got it when they said I wouldn't

Why would they say that I shouldn't?

Look at the work that I put in
