[Verse 1]
Screen too bright, writin' on the subway
Standin' on the L, couldn't sit in my skirt
4 AM alarm, chasin' down my Fridays
City shift done, then I'd head to the studio
That was my lifeline, second wind baselines
You couldn't stop me, sleepin' on the train
Missed my house, bad timing
Not dumb luck, everything aligning
[Pre-Chorus]
I was just an apparition most of my youth
Cannonball into the coffin and then wake up for school
'Cause I knew who I was
All those nights, I knew who I was
And my premonition right, damn right
[Chorus]
Now look at me now
Look at me now
Always kinda knew it deep down
Back when Dad sold the house, when I almost left town
I done figured shit out
Look at me now
No option, I made it happen
No choice, I was made to have it
Yeah, look at me now
[Post-Chorus]
Look at me now
Look at me now
Look at me now (Look at me now)
[Verse 2]
You can either play or you get played
Burn through tires on a quick chase (Quick chase)
It's been a few years since a sick day
It's been a few years on the long game
Grew up with a chip on my shoulder, talkin' to no one
Underestimated, both shoulders are cold ones
I was plottin' shit, you were crackin' a cold one
Takes one to know one
[Pre-Chorus]
I was just an apparition most of my youth
Cannonball into the coffin and then wake up for school
'Cause I knew who I was
All those nights, I knew who I was
And my premonition right, damn right
[Chorus]
Now look at me now
Look at me now
Always kinda knew it deep down
Back when Dad sold the house, when I almost left town
I done figured shit out
Look at me now (Look at me now, look at me now)
No option, I made it happen (Look at me now)
No choice, I was made to have it
Yeah, look at me, now (Look at me now)
[Outro]
Look at me now (Ayy)
Look at me now (Made it happen, made it)
Look at me now (Made it happen)
I done figured shit out
Look at me now (Look at me now)
No option, I made it happen
No choice, I was made to have it
Yeah, look at me now
