Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Yeah I started from the bottom but I elevate
For all the people that then doubted
They gone get it straight
For all the people that then doubted
They gone get it straight
For all the people that then doubted
They gone get it straight
Yeah I started from the bottom but I elevate
For all the people that then doubted
They gone get it straight
For all the people that then doubted
They gone get it straight
For all the people that then doubted
They gone get it straight
I been going through some thangs but I preserve
And they was looking for the bag but its right here
I gotta run a race nigga but it's no comp
I had to get it out the mud
Now they want to steal something
You didn't feel nothing
When you heard my last track
Now yo ass then missed out and you can't play it back
One thang that I know I then been slept on
Now i'm getting to big to be stepped on
Man I'm still in the zone I can feel the hate
And now a nigga making moves like a earthquake
And everyday I celebrate like its my birthday
Now you see I get the cake and the ice cream
They tried to do me like simba on lion king
Oh I just can't wait
These niggas can't take my place
Now they asking for forgiveness and clean slate
But I aint forgiving shit you gone get it straight
Yeah I started from the bottom but I elevate
For all the people that then doubted
They gone get it straight
For all the people that then doubted
They gone get it straight
For all the people that then doubted
They gone get it straight
Yeah I started from the bottom but I elevate
For all the people that then doubted
They gone get it straight
For all the people that then doubted
They gone get it straight
For all the people that then doubted
They gone get it straight
I ain't been feeling like myself
As the season approach
I'm my own self help
I'm my own damn coach
I been going through the motions
And you never a know
I say i started from the bottom
Made my way from the flow
Aye its probably cliche
That I'm back on the rap
I inspire so many people
Man I feel like I'm trapped
Creating my own lane navigating a course
Can come and go as I please
I don't like to be forced
With that being said
Don't tell me shit at all
Because misery loves company
And I'm none involved
And I learned some lessons in my past
That taught me all about cap
Spreading lies and fake rumors
From some made up crap
Thats fake news
They just want me to lose
All the time I put in
And I refuse to be used
And the direction that i go
Is up to me to choose
Don't follow rules
Especially the ones thats made by fools
Yeah I started from the bottom but I elevate
For all the people that then doubted
They gone get it straight
For all the people that then doubted
They gone get it straight
For all the people that then doubted
They gone get it straight
Yeah I started from the bottom but I elevate
For all the people that then doubted
They gone get it straight
For all the people that then doubted
They gone get it straight




For all the people that then doubted
They gone get it straight
