[Verse: 1]
I’m working tryna get up into first place
So I have been up in the cut no first aid
Tryna murder every rapper they they worst they
Got the freshman list sounding like first grade
Man I work too hards my worst trait
If you sitting in my path mark your date
Cuz I promise that I’m giving you a worse fate
Than the last dude down and the first eight, OOH
This shit is mine, I'm feeling entitled
I been the new wave, and that shit looking tidal
I breathe it I live it its up in my vitals
I'm bouta run laps around all of my idols
I get on a beat the instinct is primal
Anything that I say go mark it as final
Record it and mix down onto a vinyl
I’m already pissed they missed me in the bible
They told me that I wouldn’t make it, I had to take it
Better than singing a deal and then paying for promo like all these rappers who fake it
Don’t get it mistaken, I am in charge of my destiny I'll take the universe shape it, I just gotta say it
And suddenly, something awakens, and puts it in motion and I’m not complaining, so fuck watch saying
I cannot be stopped
Put me in front a door and it's getting unlocked
If you stand in my way then you bound to get rocked
I got freight train momentum I cannot be blocked
You ain’t get the picture then you getting cropped
And cut off I don’t care everyone getting chopped
Acting like magicians living like props
Lying straight to my face and they thinking I’m shocked, well I’m not dawg
I ain’t got time to go stress it, all that does is give people leverage
Homie the ethics unethical it's something special everything I do is excessive
I never quit I just keep the aggression, I don’t got time for your stupid ass questions
I’m busy building an empire chasing a dream shit I’m tryna make my life inception, woah
[Hook]
Heard that living basic being averages how you settle huh?
I'd rather take a risk and dance off with the devil bruh
I knew I got the drive I hit the pedal and I rev it up
Fuck my competition they went missing dawg I HAD TO LEVEL UP
I HAD TO LEVEL UP
I HAD TO LEVEL UP
I HAD TO LEVEL UP
I HAD TO LEVEL UP
[Verse: 2]
New year same me bitch
Never changed up even when the scene switched
I don’t chase hoes homie we pick
Drop my name and then that's who I leave with
I don’t have time to pretend, I'll be myself till the end
Been putting in over time it's hard to keep up so I had to start making up my own trends
Homie fuck making friends, I'd rather make money
Take myself somewhere that's pretty and sunny
An island resort in an exotic country
To flex on those trying to take this shit from me
Thats why on beats man I’m bound to get ugly
I murder it I leave the studio bloody
Write down the lyrics and hit it like rugby
Then all the fans started screaming that they love me, they at the shows and they all goin dummy
Its crazy now its kinda weird I get to look back
And realize the darkest days are locked up in the past
I swear every day is quicker never thought I’d live this fast
That just comes with all the drive and never running outta gas
They all praying that I crash, I ain’t ever doing that
They mad i live on the edge, ya life can end in just a flash
So I said fuck it i won’t ask, ima take it make some cash
And blow the fuck up and come back to everybody and just laugh saying
[Hook]

I HAD TO LEVEL UP
