I Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I remember now, I remember
I remember now, I remember
I remember now, I remember
I remember now
What you said
No I'm not again
Promising
No I'm not okay
Tell me your faith
Nothing more than that
What you're afraid of
What you're afraid
I'm afraid
I'm a warrior
I'll be okay
I'm a warrior
Way I was made
I'm a warrior
Tell me your faith
Tell me your faith
I'll be okay
I'm a warrior
Tell me your faith
I'm a warrior
I'll be okay
I'm a warrior
I'll be okay
I'll be okay

Line by Line Meaning

I tick tick tick I collected my ticks
I've been counting my achievements diligently over time


Top dog even though I didn't speak no English
I was always regarded as a leader even without knowing the language


Guess I got grit 'cause I suffer for my shit
I have acquired strength through my struggles and hard work


Guess I came from the sticks and moved to the bricks
I moved from a rural area to an urban city to make it big


You can't fix this 'cause I'm in the same mix
I won't change my ways even if you try to fix me


Guess I'm in the air you can smell me like Vicks
I'm everywhere and my presence is noticeable


This chicks bringing back this
The girl is reminding you of something from the past


It's my last wish
I'm making a final request


One snare one kick oh look at this
The music is building up with a simple beat


I freak in minds like
I blow people's minds with my unique style


Giddy up giddy up giddy up
Let's go, let's get moving


Come take a ride
Join me in this journey


Light the city up city up city up
Let's create a buzz, make the city come alive


You've got me fired up
I'm feeling motivated and energized


Sound boy got me back up
The music is giving me the push I need


I keep my head down beat it up beat it up beat it up
I stay focused and work hard to achieve my goals


Warriors in the dance
We are fighters in the music industry


Gangsters bangers were puttin' 'em in a trance
Our music is captivating even for tough guys


Put them in a trance
Our music has the power to mesmerize and hypnotize


We're putting em in a trance
Our music is effectively captivating our listeners


M.I.A. murda middle finger
M.I.A. is rebellious and provocative


Fuck 'em other bitches that try to be my ringer
She doesn't care about the competition and copycats


This time I come as singer
She's here to prove her vocal abilities


Next time ill come as pain
She will cause anguish with her next creative project


I ain't talking money
She's not in it just for the money


But I can make it rain
She's confident in her ability to produce hits


Bitches try to get me with their witches on cocaine
Other female artists attempt to bring her down with their drug-fueled schemes


Snitches turn to dust
Those who betray her cannot face her wrath


And I wash em down the drain
She swiftly discards betrayers from her life


Vitamins for your brain
Her music is nourishing for the mind


Protein for your weight gain
Her music is empowering and inspiring


This is how we train!
This is our process for achieving greatness
