Got me like woah
Got me like woah
Got me like whooo
Got me like whoo, woah
You got me like whoo
You got me like woah
You got me like woah
You got me like woah
Got me like oh-oh-oh-oh-whoo
Patiently posted, make no mistake though
I feel it coming but hold up, just wait though
Something's not right, yeah
Write every night, yeah
Future look so bright but I don't need to shine, yeah
I'm not ready, no-no, I'm not ready, no
But they rushing they craft, for me to blow over night
Fuck all the industry hypes
See, I'mma keep putting in work
You would think people tryna help couldn't hurt
But all this pressure, all this muh'fucking pressure
Swear to God it's got me like uh
Got me like "please, back the fuck up"
I'm not a puppet that you can control
Don't got a gimmick for you to make money from
I'm about patience, potential, and growth
I know enough to know that I don't know enough
I'm still young, bitch I'm growing up
So watch me evolve, like it's said backwards'
Just know it won't stop me at all
You got me like woah
Got me like woah
Got me like woah
Got me like whooo
Got me like whoo, woah
You got me like whoo
You got me like woah
You got me like woah
Got me like, got me like woah
You got me like woah
Got me like oh-oh-oh-oh-whoo, yeah
I'm good, I'm good, I take my time, ooh, I should, stay on my grind
I'm good, I'm good, I take my time, ooh, I should, stay on my grind
Bitch I got drive I go vroom-vroom-vroom-vroom
I pop the clutch and I peel it out
You looking mad, how you feel now?
Got these hoes feeling their feelings
Damn, it's okay, I don't mind
I take it one day at a time
I'm moving and gaining momentum
She mad I ain't gave her attention
I say that my time is expensive
So please do not take it offensive
But I'm on a roll with this shit
Working all night, so you know how it gets
Young-young wu, show the new way
But I paid dues to the Wu-Tang
I'mma stay true, fuck what you say
Oh wooh wooh wooh wooh
You got me like woah
Got me like woah
Got me like woah
Got me like oh-oh-oh
Got me like whoo, woah
You got me like whoo
You got me like woah
You got me like woah
Got me like, got me like woah
You got me like woah
Got me like oh-oh-oh-oh-whoo, yeah
