Levitate
Berner & B-Real Lyrics

People tryna bring me down my whole entire life
Throughout my life, there have been people who have consistently tried to undermine or sabotage me.

Never knew if I was in the wrong or if I was in the right
I have always struggled with determining whether my actions or beliefs were morally correct or not.

Left me in the dark, I forgave 'em when I made my light
These individuals left me feeling lost and unsupported, but I ultimately found my own source of happiness and forgiveness.

Now you hit me up when I started gaining subs and likes
Suddenly, now that I am achieving success and gaining popularity online, you want to reach out to me.

And where were you?
Where were you when I needed support and encouragement?

When I was at the bottom
During the times when I was struggling and facing adversity.

Everybody hating on me cause I couldn't seem top 'em
People directed hate towards me because I couldn't surpass or outdo their achievements.

Acting like we friends, but your jealousy is never stopping
You pretended to be my friend, but your jealousy and envy towards my success never ceased.

Pulled the plug, you're not my friend, our relationship 6 feet under rotten
I have ended our connection and realized that you were never truly my friend. Our bond has deteriorated beyond repair.

I ain't the person to let everything you did go
I am not someone who easily forgets or forgives everything you have done.

But I'm also the person that has no control
Although I hold onto resentment, I recognize that I cannot control the actions of others.

Don't you ever take me and my work as a joke
Do not undermine or belittle me or the effort I put into my work.

What's funny is how 2 faced you are, you're the hoax
Ironically, you are the one who is deceitful and not genuine in your actions and intentions.

You gotta watch the people looking at your every step
It is crucial to be cautious of those who closely observe and analyze your every move.

One second they're your homies, the next they're coming for your neck
In an instant, your friends can turn on you and become your enemies, attacking or undermining you.

If they bring you down, forget 'em, what's the point to impress
If these individuals try to bring you down, it is better to let go of the need to impress them.

If they you're homies, they should feel like brothers not guest's
If someone claims to be your friend, they should treat you like family rather than mere acquaintances.

I'm catching feelings every single time I make my music
I experience deep emotions every time I create and produce my music.

I hate people cause the things the say and opinions abusive
I develop a dislike for people as their hurtful words and abusive opinions take a toll on me.

I'm doing good on my own, don't ask again, it's concluded
I am thriving and succeeding independently, so there is no need to inquire further.

Floating off the planet, gotta do it, feelings got me moving
I am transcending worldly matters and striving forward, driven by my emotions.

Levitate, off of the ground God made
I am rising above the circumstances and limitations created by a higher power.

I'm going somewhere safe
I am seeking a place of security and solace.

With things that I create
In this safe space, I can be surrounded by the creations I have made.

Don't know if I have a trace
I am uncertain if my presence will leave a lasting mark or impact.

I'll go to a place with no pain
I yearn to escape to a realm where I am free from emotional or physical suffering.

Lately I've been staying up, talking with our god
Recently, I have found myself staying awake, engaging in conversations with a divine being.

Tryna figure out who I am and who I am not
I am attempting to comprehend and define my true identity, distinguishing it from what I am not.

Find myself in deep thoughts, I got no power to stop
I often find myself lost in profound contemplation, unable to halt these thoughts.

Look at the problems and stress, its everything I brought
When I examine my problems and the stress I experience, I realize that I am responsible for bringing them upon myself.

I'm not the person I was
I have undergone a significant transformation and I am no longer the individual I once was.

I'm not the ego they love
I am distancing myself from the version of me that others admired and idolized.

Each time I create a new successful piece of music.

Sick of staying with you humans, always breaking hearts
I have grown weary of remaining among humans who constantly cause heartbreak.

Was anything real? Or did you have an evil plan from the start
I question the authenticity of everything, wondering if people had malicious intentions from the beginning.

Guess I picked the wrong cards
I made an unfortunate choice or selection.

Guess I'm in the far
I find myself distanced or separated from where I desire to be.

Thank my gut, not once did I ever let down my guard
