Elevators
Aha Gazelle Lyrics

Man I finally got a ticket
I finally made it to where I wanted to go

And so do all my people with me
My friends and family are here with me, supporting me

A lot less than when we started
Not everyone who doubted me came along for the ride

Cause everybody couldn't see it
Not everyone could see my vision

Remember they was talking down
People used to speak negatively about me and my goals

Now they can't get in the building
Those same people are now trying to join me, but they are not welcome

There nobody give directions
No one is helping me find my way

So I had to use my feelings
I had to rely on my intuition and emotions to guide me

I finally found an elevator
I found a way to move up and succeed

They told me that I wouldn't make it
People doubted my abilities and success

I'm just thanking the creator
I am grateful for my achievements and blessings

But all this saucin in extra flavor
I am successful beyond what was just expected of me

This is a song for everyone who gave up on me
This song is dedicated to those who doubted me and abandoned me

Was supposed to fail but f'd around still made the d
Despite the odds, I succeeded and proved people wrong

D for dog off the chain like no slavery
I am free and successful, like a dog without a leash

Please don't hate on me
Don't be jealous or resentful of my achievements

Hate on the one that created me
If you have to hate something, hate the source of my success, which I attribute to God

Man I'm from a label not the place that the lakers be
I come from Louisiana's music label, not the sports team

Its Louisiana same place that the gators be
I am from Louisiana, where alligators reside

My music make you make the face you make when a baby stink
My music evokes strong reactions in people, both good and bad

Y'all should understand by now that there is no changing me
People should know that I am determined to stay true to myself and my goals

I was doing this way before they was paying me
I was pursuing my passion even before making any money from it

I gave my only nope enough to y'all like a vacancy
I devoted all my energy and resources to pursuing my goals, leaving nothing extra

The word you telling me to take a break when to break for peace
People who suggest taking a break from my music do not understand that it brings me peace

I see the sons middle finger always start off as peace
People who show me negativity often start off pretending to be friendly

Many hits like Mick Mantle
I have many successful songs, like a famous baseball player

God's gift from black santa
I believe that my talents come from God, and am proudly black

Pro black but I'll still wear white socks with black sandals
I embrace my culture, but also am comfortable making my own fashion choices

Some of y'all need to tell the truth
Some people need to be honest about their own shortcomings and insecurities

Tell a lies its a bad habit
Lying is a harmful behavior

All the bs won't flush cause it really was too much to handle
People's negativity and drama was overwhelming and damaging

Recipe is [?]
I have a special combination of skills and attributes

Dear God I really hate cancer
I despise the devastating disease of cancer

If you not a christian rapper why'd you call to hung up I should've never answer
I receive negativity and hate from people who are confused about my religious beliefs

Green beans still in my pantry
I am still humble and grounded despite my success

Rap good like bandanas
My rap skills are impressive and unique

Dreams bigger than Rick Ross
My aspirations and goals are even larger than those of a successful rap artist

And I sing like Diana
I have an impressive singing voice like Diana Ross

Dear God I don't wanna fry, elevator on my way to heaven
I hope to go to heaven and avoid damnation

Matter of fact God is leading [?] my fries French like Montana
God is steering my life in a positive direction, like the fried French fries made in Montana

The told me not to only way to get the win is to change like TV channels
People told me that I needed to change in order to succeed, but I proved them wrong

But my remote control ain't got no batteries
I am in control of my own life and actions, without needing anyone else's guidance
