No Matter What

[Chorus]
I been up, I been down, trying to reach out for the crown (Uh huh)
No matter what will happen now
Yeah, if you're going to stop me, hold me down
'Cause I'ma be last up-up-up in here
No matter what it takes, I'm gon' get there
Ah, ah, ah, ah

[Verse 1]
Uh, been rappin' since I was four, and I ain't stoppin' now
I'm finally doin' great things and making my mom proud (Uh)
So I don't plan to stop, I'ma be here for a while
While you were sittin' back talking and tryna prevail
But it's okay, though, I'ma always stand my ground
And bring me crew with me, and I'll also roll my town
I been through a lot of the ups and the downs
So when I say I'm a king, homie, I'ma find my crown (Okay)
See, every day, it's like we face a new problem
But then I found out the strategy and then I go solve it (Uh)
A lot of rappers talk about their money and their chains
And people only do that just because they got the fame
See, I could never do that just because I'm not the same
I'm definitely grindin' and I'm just tryna make a change
People look down at me like I'm some type of lame
But then they get mad when I change the rap game

[Chorus]
I been up, I been down, trying to reach out for the crown (Uh huh)
No matter what will happen now
If you're going to stop me, hold me down
'Cause I'ma be last up-up-up in here
No matter what it takes, I'm gon' get there
Ah, ah, ah, ah (Uh huh, uh huh, uh)

[Verse 2]
Nobody's perfect, ayy, nobody's perfect (Yeah!)
I been workin' my whole life, so I really know I earned it (Okay!)
I started making this project, now people love it
They wanna see me get out and perform these songs in public (Uh huh)
And now I'm doin' great and I got the crowd jumpin'
Man, it feels great to know I'm finally doin' somethin' (Yeah)
Now I'm a boss and I feel like a king
'Cause I know I finally turned my dream into a thing (Woo!)
What? That's great, but I'm not gonna stop (Uh huh)
I'ma keep on going even when I reach the top (Yeah)
Because, I know, homie, I'ma always set goals (Uh huh)
And when I achieve, they hate, and that's how it goes (Yeah)
Oh well, I'ma keep on doin' this
And I don't care what they say, dawg, I'm doin' it
These haters tryna pull me down and tryna ruin it
But I ain't gonna stop, my career is too legit

[Chorus]
I been up, I been down, trying to reach out for the crown
No matter what will happen now
If you're going to stop me, hold me down
'Cause I'ma be last up-up-up in here
No matter what it takes, I'm gon' get there
Ah, ah, ah, ah

[Bridge]
Yeah, FDE, D2-double-R, SKG
Uh huh, no, no matter-no matter-no matter what
They say we gon' make it, and we gon' make it
Uh huh, let's go!

[Chorus]
I been up, I been down, trying to reach out for the crown
No matter what will happen now
If you're going to stop me, hold me down
'Cause I'ma be last up-up-up in here
No matter what it takes, I'm gon' get there
Ah, ah, ah, ah
I been up, I been down, trying to reach out for the crown
No matter what will happen now
If you're going to stop me, hold me down
'Cause I'ma be last up-up-up in here
No matter what it takes, I'm gon' get there
Ah, ah, ah, ah
