Hook:
The down times just fuel the progression
Stand tall never trading respect for attention
S'why I’m steady on the up and up
Walk light Cake heavy on the up and up
Keep a good plug that's a power connection
On the come up from mud I'm just counting my blessings
While Remaining on the up and up
Never jaded chasing greatness on the up up
Verse:
Prps vintage air max
This that gotta be driven to understand rap
Smokin loud yea that type to make a mirror crack
Really on my way ain’t just lusting coupes and leer jets
Sheer facts, plus my Fam want out the damn jects
Guarded estates with some rounds that ull tear vest
Show em life so they never gotta fear death
Less stress more cleared checks
Don't compare the rest few can contest put myself in my own lane They sideline watchin my steps like soul train
These songs hold pain from Os to whole thangs
Pops bidded 10 I had to become my own mane
Mack in my veins ain't caught up playin these these hoes games
That dough came niggas went against the whole grain
The road to riches bumpy buckle up
Natural born hustla
Sprout like Brussels still on the up and up
Hook:
The down times just fuel the progression
Stand tall never trading respect for attention
S'why I'm steady on the up and up
Walk light Cake heavy on the up and up
Keep a good plug that's a power connection
On the come up from mud I'm just counting my blessings
While Remaining on the up and up
Never jaded chasing greatness on the up up
Bridge:
S'why I’m steady on the up and up
Cake heavy on the up and up
Still remaining on the up and up
Chasing greatness on the up up
2nd Verse:
Know where you from know where you goin’
Got my foot in the door I started with a toe in
I can't do nothin’ for you homie if you still ain't growin'
Just know the boat won't move if you get to rowin’
Get the dough in I'm talkin stackin mad cake
Peel the foreign at a fast pace like a drag race
Follow ya dreams god can tell when you lack faith
Stay true life or death let the Mac spray
Snitch on niggas for lesser charges how them rats play
Streets dirty I ain't got time I'm making rap pay
Tryna go from black AC to a black wraith
A black goal driven queen who still nasty
Elegant and classy can't throw shade on my shine
Niggas soundin' insecure the hate they spew is sublime
Fuck punchlines these is uppercuts
Bars hard like Muscle ups
Endless hustle still on the up and up
Hook:
The down times just fuel the progression
Stand tall never trading respect for attention
S'why I'm steady on the up and up
Walk light Cake heavy on the up and up
Keep a good plug that's a power connection
On the come up from mud I'm just counting my blessings
While Remaining on the up and up
Never jaded chasing greatness on the up up
