VERSE 1
Yeah, I'm back again like something reminisced, I brought that emphasis
For rap imperative just to address my relevance
As I do so eloquently, well I am black excellence
All about my benjamins, from reaping all the benefits, Benevolent
But I step up to the plate and do my best to dominate, uh
I been on my way up though I'm yet to celebrate, uh
I be shining bright on all these niggas throwing shade, woah
But I'm still that nigga underplayed
Yeah that young pony, doing many tricks for zero pay
Cry about it till a nigga start to get a little hoarse
Put my work up for adoption when the figures cannot raise
And some people always find a way to rain on my parade
I don't give my time to fakes
I just do what works for me, perfectly
If it's meant to be? Let's just wait and see
Only realest, don't ever forget it, my plug is ambition
Already connected, I made a decision with my intuition
I'm paving my way up that gets to my vision
My nigga that's word
BRIDGE
They tell the best stories when you make it
Ask em why they lying to your face
When you were down, and you couldn't take it
Everybody looked the other way
Now I set pace
I pull up and leave without a trace
Now I set pace
Stop em when they coming off base
CHORUS
I don't like it when these people all up in space, yeah
They be talking plenty they was silent in my face, yeah
Niggas gassed up, tryna put me in a race, but
I don't follow trends nah me I set the pace
Yeah me I set the pace
Now I pull up and I leave without a trace
Niggas looking for me, I be on my way
Let em know that we are not the same
I set the pace
VERSE 2
Man that's nothing basic, I level up it feels amazing
They went from laughing and yapping but now they gazing
So I dust that shelf, hang my plaques and throw my L's
Carefully, I leave my legacy, make sure I'mma get there steadily
Woah, I been looking after mental health especially, ay
I been going hard since I was somewhere seventeen, yeah
Never let another nigga be the death of me, ay
Someone feeling challenged get the referee
Niggas kill for anything, these days
Like the purge you better watch your back it's anybody's game
Homie wanna chill? Nah I'll take my chances on my own
I got trust issues so I'd rather kick it all alone
Yeah I set the pace
I pull up and leave without a trace
Me I set the pace
Stop em coz they coming off base
CHORUS
I don't like it when these people all up in space, yeah
They be talking plenty they was silent in my face, yeah
Niggas gassed up, tryna put me in a race, but
I don't follow trends nah me I set the pace
Yeah me I set the pace
Now I pull up and I leave without a trace
Niggas looking for me, I be on my way
Let em know that we are not the same
I don't like it when these people all up in space, yeah
They be talking plenty they was silent in my face, yeah
Niggas gassed up, tryna put me in a race, but
I don't follow trends nah me I set the pace
Yeah me I set the pace
Now I pull up and I leave without a trace
Niggas looking for me, I be on my way
Let em know that we are not the same
I set the pace
