Hands Up

[Chorus: RoZe]
I told myself I don't need no help
I can do this all on my own (all on my own)
Just give me time, 'cause I'm gon' shine
As soon as I'm in my zone (I'm in my zone)
You thought I'd fail, but I prevailed
I guess that I proved you wrong (yeah)
So the next time I cross your mind
Or when you hear my song
Put your hands up
(Put 'em up, put 'em up, put 'em up, put 'em up, put 'em up)
Put your hands up
(Put 'em up, put 'em up, put 'em up, put 'em up, put 'em up)
Put your hands up
(Put 'em up, put 'em up, put 'em up, put 'em up, put 'em up)
Put your hands up
(Put 'em up, put 'em up, put 'em up, put 'em up, yeah)
Put your hands up

[Verse 1: Abstract]
Watchin' MTV
Dreaming 'bout a cypher up on BET
Tell my mom that's me, sittin' VIP
A-Team worldwide till I D-I-E
Cause T-H-E-Y never believed in I
Trying to belittle my riddles and bring me down, they tried
Always knew I'd rise if I just stuck to my mind
They trying to see if I'm strong enough, kept my weapons inside
Kept honesty on my tongue; kept that smoke in my lungs
This ain't 2008, my family lacking in funds
Tryna go out and get it and put you back where it was
And I know I can do it, thousands been showin' me love
Life tried to change me, arrange me, erase me from who I am
Always been a creative, I'll make it, this was the plan
Life fell apart so my future could fall together
Shoutout to my broken heart, who knew you would make me better?

[Chorus: RoZe]
I told myself I don't need no help
I can do this all on my own (all on my own)
Just give me time, 'cause I'm gon' shine
As soon as I'm in my zone (I'm in my zone)
You thought I'd fail, but I prevailed
I guess that I proved you wrong (yeah)
So the next time I cross your mind
Or when you hear my song
Put your hands up
(Put 'em up, put 'em up, put 'em up, put 'em up, put 'em up)
Put your hands up
(Put 'em up, put 'em up, put 'em up, put 'em up, put 'em up)
Put your hands up
(Put 'em up, put 'em up, put 'em up, put 'em up, put 'em up)
Put your hands up
(Put 'em up, put 'em up, put 'em up, put 'em up, yeah)
Put your hands up

[Verse 2: Abstract]
Swear I'm tryna get a Grammy
Dedicated to my granny
Just so this could make a little sense to my family
Explainin' what my plan is, they got trouble understanding
Explaining what I do got me explaining the internet
"So you give this out for free? Son, you should be cashing checks"
Ain't that simple, this the world of digital, DatPiffable
Get a fanbase behind you, or it could be pivotal
These days music has never been more competitive
Compare me to myself, 'cause I don't fuck with comparisons
You wanna be the next what? Find that shit embarrassing
Aim to be the best you, that's what all the legends did
Shoutout to Dylan, John Lennon, Kurt, Big, Pac and Hendrix
Nas, Em, Ye, Jay, all I didn't mention
It's a long road, but I'm fightin' for the top
Hope one day to be included in those names I dropped

[Chorus: RoZe]
I told myself I don't need no help
I can do this all on my own (all on my own)
Just give me time, 'cause I'm gon' shine
As soon as I'm in my zone (I'm in my zone)
You thought I'd fail, but I prevailed
I guess that I proved you wrong (yeah)
So the next time I cross your mind
Or when you hear my song
Put your hands up
(Put 'em up, put 'em up, put 'em up, put 'em up, put 'em up)
Put your hands up
(Put 'em up, put 'em up, put 'em up, put 'em up, put 'em up)
Put your hands up
(Put 'em up, put 'em up, put 'em up, put 'em up, put 'em up)
Put your hands up
(Put 'em up, put 'em up, put 'em up, put 'em up, yeah)

[Outro: RoZe]
I told myself I don't need no help
I can do this all on my own
Just give me time, cause I'm gon' shine
As soon as I'm in my zone
You thought I'd fail, but I prevailed
I guess that I proved you wrong
So the next time I cross your mind
Or when you hear my song
Put your hands up
