[Intro]
Had to do it again, right?
Had to do it again
Left with no choice, I think
No choice
Haha
Come on
One, two, three
[Verse 1]
Somethin' inside of me told me to body this
Everything don't need to be for an audience
Thought of discussin' the state of the world that we in
But that's kinda just statin' the obvious
All of the evil embody us
Fentanyl turnin' our people to zombies
They pick on the weak, they ain't guardians
Swinging and choppin' us down
That's why there's a mob in the crowd
This how we move in the space, not about who's in the race
I don't know how many times I'ma tell you
My only objective's improvin' my pace
That's how you do it with grace
I let 'em into my world on a personal level
Like, "Check out the view of my place"
Not many willin' to do what it takes
Everything that I been through is embraced
[Chorus]
T-t-t-t-twenty-four, bitch, I'll grind out twenty more
At this point, that's all I do, guess that's what your twenties for
They wanna reap the benefits, do everything but study more
Laser-focused, 20/20, all of 2024
[Verse 2]
Somethin' inside of me's keepin' me pushin'
My savings account ain't have much of a cushion
I stood on my business and never was crooked
Now flights to a festival's somethin' we bookin'
I'm Rocky Maivia, you smell what I'm cookin'
Don't let me get comfy, I'm findin' my footin'
They fit in the sneakers I'm wearin', I doubt it
Ain't many that took it to spots that I took it
We up in the sky right now (Let me get on, let me get on)
What a wild ride right now (Let me get on, let me get on)
The only way I know how (Let me get on, let me get on)
Before the day I go out (Let me get on, let me get on)
I got a elegant way of rebellin'
I'm very aware of the way I've been flickin' the switch
Playin' it cool, I'm pickin' my pitch
Fuck with the kid, that's like diggin' your ditch
Fuck with the kid, you gon' swim with the fish
I'll write a verse with a flick of the wrist
I'm on a hunt and a mission to get what I'm missin'
That previously didn't exist
I don't feel the need to really bring it to a level where it escalates
Still, don't test your fate
Motherfucker, I been right on time
The world tricked me to thinkin' I'm extra late
I cut a record like it's extra weight
I don't guess, I estimate
Don't tell me the checks are late
I get better every year I go, and this about to be the best to date
Know what I'm sayin'?
[Chorus]
T-t-t-t-twenty-four, bitch, I'll grind out twenty more
At this point, that's all I do, guess that's what your twenties for
They wanna reap the benefits, do everything but study more
Laser-focused, 20/20, all of 2024
[Outro]
Run your own race, run your own race
My only objective's improvin' my pace
That's the motto movin' forward if you didn't know
Aight, cut it there
