Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I woke up impatient and anxious
Chasin' dreams in my sleep
Got me feelin' like I made it
Then I wake up and see
Frustration, tracing for payment
Thankfully, they know me
Can't get enough of the paper
Get enough of the
[Verse 2]
I know you love it, babe
'Cause I'm a risk
But if you put it on
I'ma win
And if you give it time
I won't forget
When I'm a legend, baby
And we're all rich
[Verse 3]
I need you to know
It's under control, I got it
And as it unfolds
I got you, I promise
I promise I'm on it
[Verse 4]
I can't help but feel like I'm wastin'
Precious time in my life
Worryin' about my behaviors
Sometimes I think I'm too nice
I know I'm destined for greatness
Fuck a critic's advice
They hatin' 'cause I'm a player
[Verse 5]
I know you love it, babe
'Cause I'm a risk
But if you put it on
I'ma win
And if you give it time
I won't forget
When I'm a legend, baby
And we're all rich
[Verse 6]
I need you to know
It's under control, I got it
And as it unfolds
I got you, I promise
I promise I'm on it
[Verse 7]
When it's all said and done
I've said all I want, whoa
You know I'm tellin' you the truth
When I say I'll take care of you
Yeah, yeah
[Verse 8]
I need you to know
It's under control, I got it
And as it unfolds
I got you, I promise
I promise I'm on it
I need you to know
It's under control, I got it
And as it unfolds
I got you, I promise
I promise I'm on it
