[Chorus: DizzyEight]
I used to work hard for the status, the power, the money I wanted the loot
They say that the weight of a man is measured by all of the things he pursue
As soon as he and eye contact, I had to go switch up the view
I keep his word close, I value that more than a coupe, yeah
I was down on my back, out of my last, I didn't know what to do
Was starving my spirit, but lately, I'm finding my soul has been hungry for truth
I had to tighten up, I was living my life way too lose
I had to tighten up, I was living my life way too lose
[Verse 1: DizzyEight]
Wait, tight it up, in the dark, had to light it up
Woah, fire up all of my haters just wanna retire us
I'm under fire, but that's the requirement unphased when I'm on assignment
Yeah, stress free 'cause them problems ain't bigger than who I'm aligned with
I turn away from my old ways 'cause none of them things would serve me
I'm not afraid, and I'm not ashamed 'cause I know he'll never desert me
I made a change, then he made a way, even though I'm undeserving
The enemy - I see 'em lurking, I'm covered, you could never hurt me
Woah, yeah, strapped up, keep his word on my side
Post up, you can see me outside 'cause most us in need of a light
Shine bright like a beam through the night, on point like a beam on a sight
Armor on me, yeah, I'm ready to fight, armor on me, yeah, I'm ready, alright
[Pre-Chorus: DizzyEight]
No matter the setting, you better be ready for war
I'm with the Father, so know that it's deadie for sure
His word for my demons to them be the deadliest sword
I had to tighten up, so I'll be ready for more
[Chorus: DizzyEight]
I used to work hard for the status, the power, the money I wanted the loot

I was down on my back, out of my last, I didn't know what to do
Was starving my spirit, but lately, I'm finding my soul has been hungry for truth
I had to tighten up, I was living my life way too lose
I had to tighten up, I was living my life way too lose
[Verse 2: Errol Allen]
Ay, I was living life too lose, OK
Them demons had me in a noose, OK
And then I hit them with the truth, OK
And now they don't know what to do, OK
Ain't no competition with the opposition
When it come to music, I'm a father figure
God done showed me signs and all kinda visions
Ain't no worries, Dizzy, man, we blessed
Too blessed to be stressed
We blessed forever to the death
Ain't got no diamonds on my neck
But what I do have is better than that
Now I put the city on the map
And I put my family on my back
And I did it off of making raps
[Pre-Chorus: DizzyEight]
No matter the setting, you better be ready for war
I'm with the Father, so know that it's deadie for sure
His word for my demons to them be the deadliest sword
I had to tighten up, so I'll be ready for more

I had to tighten up, I was living my life way too lose
