Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Yeah
You know, you know
You know
[Verse 2]
Aye, this the last time I let somebody steal my peace
If you ain't addin' to the plate, shawty, you can't eat
Don't be actin' like you know me, bruh, we don't speak
A lotta people come and go, but it won't be me
You can't break me, I just take control of the environment
Get 'em worked up and then I put 'em in retirement
I wont lose sleep if you don't have my back
But don't you try to front on me, 'cause you can't take that back
I'm still God's child, regardless if they like it or not
I've been bussin' out the seems, I don't fit in they box
Cuttin' people out the picture, yeah, you might get cropped
And I don't carry dead weight, so you gon' get dropped
Bringin' it back to perspective, I've been so reflective
Had to guard my energy and now I'm so protective
I don't waste time tryna prove myself
I can't please you so much that I lose myself
I think it's way past time I remove myself
I done tried everything, it's time to choose myself
And I don't need your cosign
God did it when he threw another lifeline
Yeah, you know it's my time (Yuh)
[Verse 3]
I don't get bitter, I just get better
I let people come and go like the weather, don't sweat 'em
I don't even waste my energy
I just cut 'em off from the team
And they be like, ooh, ooh, ooh (Ooh)
They be mad I'm makin' moves
All up in they feelings like, ooh, ooh, ooh (Yes)
I don't get bitter, I just get better and I make room (Yes, mmm)
[Verse 4]
Aye, this the last time I ever dim my light and make you feel better
People try to silence you, when they know they ain't on your level
I've been at the point, I don't fight, I just walk away
Rather keep my peace than try to beg somebody else to stay
I used to fear abandonment
Circles stayed big and insecurities were evident
Everybody talkin', but they don't address the elephant
Read the room, shawty, nothin' that you say is relevant
You talkin' with no evidence
I don't get bitter 'bout it, I just make better boundaries
People think you owe them somethin', Ion want them trolls around me
I got two modes, that's safety and fire
When I'm triggered, I just load it up and I aim higher
When you take L after L after L, every time you learn sum'
Every bridge is not for you, sometimes you gotta burn some
I don't talk back I take names
And watch how they get mad when you changed
And they quick to shift the blame, yeah
Yeah, you a itty, bitty crab in the bucket, yeah
Now only time you see success is when you lucky, yeah
You think somebody owe you somethin' just for nothing, yeah?
And you the one that love to talk when you be bluffin', yeah
All I ever wanted was to focus on my own lane
People love to talk, but they don't ever run they own race
I've been takin' off 'cause I been focused on my own pace
People come and go and I just hit them 'em with the okay (Yeah, yuh)
[Verse 5]
I don't get bitter, I just get better
I let people come and go like the weather, don't sweat 'em
I don't even waste my energy
I just cut 'em off from the team
And they be like, ooh, ooh, ooh (Ooh)
They be mad I'm makin' moves
All up in they feelings like, ooh, ooh, ooh (Yes)
I don't get bitter, I just get better and I make room (Yeah)
