Never threw shade no hate no way no snake on the way up
Never switched sides told lies I ride every time on the way up
Lost a few lives lost time on God I cried on the way up
Lose some take some stayed with my day ones
I had to get up and get out the door
What I need they don't sell at the store
I got problems that won't fit in a post
Plus you cowards couldn't handle the quote
If you askin then the answer is no
Keep it goin till I'm labeled a GOAT
Keep it 100 right down to the soul
Beat is soundin like we dipped it in gold
Just hit it once and I'm carefree
Not many places to find peace
Pay you no mind if you mind me
I got the time and the side piece
Over the top where you find me
Pushin me down but I'm climbin
Act like you know what the time is
I'm pulling my weight in diamonds
Never told a lie on the way up
Never switched sides on the way up
Lost a few lives on the way up
Opened my mind on the way up
Always showed love on the way up
Never held a grudge on the way up
So I just stayed with my day ones
Now we all blessed and we way up
On the way up
Never threw shade no hate no way no snake on the way up
Never switched sides told lies I ride every time on the way up
Lost a few lives lost time on God I cried on the way up
Lose some take some stayed with my day ones now look we way up
As misery tried to visit me last night
Memories flooded me from a past life
Visions was showing me how to act right
And why we so addicted to the fast life
Like what type of energy I've been drawing in
Weight on my shoulders back on the wall again
With so many people hoping I fall again
With no one to call no one at all
No ones throwing the ball knowing I'm flawed
Took a moment and paused
I got some moves that you ain't gonna see
I was trained in the dark
And my heart was providing the spark on those nights it was me verse me
See my role was to lead
I got goals I've achieved and supposed to believe that it ain't gonna be
How I go from being down on my luck with a verse and chorus
To gettin green like it's top of the morning
And I never told a lie on the way up
Never switched sides on the way up
Lost a few lives on the way up
Opened my mind on the way up
Always showed love on the way up
Never held a grudge on the way up
So i just stayed with my day ones
Now we all blessed and we way up
On the way up
Never threw shade no hate no way no snake on the way up
Never switched sides told lies i ride every time on the way up
Lost a few lives lost time on God i cried on the way up
Lose some take some stayed with my day ones now look we way up
