You Deserve It
Future Lyrics

Ay, man, I'm pullin' out the motherfuckin Ritz the other day
I'm telling you about the day I left the Ritz hotel

Man I pull up on my partner Beano
I stopped by to see my friend Beano

He like, 'Future, you deserve that shit, nigga'
Beano told me I earned that kind of luxury

You deserve it
It is worth pointing out again that you earned it

I done paid so many dues
I have gone through so much to reach this point

I never lose my cool
I always stay focused and grounded

Just the other day, my lil' cousin call me from school and said
The other day, my young cousin called me from school and told me

Ain't asked for this, I worked for this, I was in the dungeon, just purchasin'
I didn't beg for this, I earned this by spending time in the studio

Catch the jiggers, not paying attention
I ignore anyone who tries to interfere with my work

No harm, nigga, my slang tremendous
I'm not trying to hurt anyone; I'm just really good at what I do

I'm better than you and I know it
I am fully aware that I am better than most other people

I will show it
I'll prove myself to anyone who doubts me

You ain't flowin' how I'm flowin'
You don't have the same level of skill as I do when it comes to rapping

That's why I'm goin', Places you ain't goin'
I'll succeed in ways that you won't

And I keep goin' and goin', Until I'm growin'
I'll keep working hard until I reach my ultimate potential

To a mogul, my come-up was explosive, I picked that up from Rico
My rise to fame was powerful, and I learned from Rico's example

My cousin had my back from day one, mano y mano
My cousin has always supported me, side by side

I believe in keepin' it one thousand and stayin' humble
I value honesty and remain down to earth

New route I chose to take through the jungle
I found a new way to pursue my dreams, even when it was tough

Keep the same mentality when I was standin' on the corner
I maintain the same mindset I had when I was just starting out

Hit the studio and split that crack and have you on it (my folks done told me)
I spend time in the studio, making music and producing hits (as advised by my family)

I go so fuckin' hard, 'til my heart skip a beat
I push myself extremely hard, to the point where my heart races

I always been expensive, ain't nothin' about me cheap
I have expensive tastes and value quality over quantity

I'm the realest nigga you have seen, Since Michael Jackson, Billie Jean
I am among the most genuine and authentic people you'll ever meet

All this pain, I can't even rap
Sometimes I am overcome with emotion and am unable to work

Sometimes I feel I wanna sing
Other times, I feel like expressing myself through singing

My passion (my passion)
Music is my biggest passion

It goes without me sayin'
My passion is self-evident and doesn't need to be explained

The fruits of my labor, I laid down a solid foundation
Through my hard work, I've built a strong foundation for my career

You water a seed too long and it will grow, You stay down and grind for long and it's gon' show
If you nurture something for long enough, it will thrive; if you put in the effort over a long period of time, it will eventually pay off

It brings water to my eyes just to hear me on the radio
It's emotional for me to hear my music play on the radio

You wouldn't understand the route I had to take to get here so
It's difficult for others to appreciate the journey I went through to arrive here

It didn't come easy (it didn't come easy)
I faced many challenges, and success was not handed to me easily

Most people hit me up and say these rappers cheesy, 'cause
People often reach out to me to express that they don't like many of today's rappers

You deserve it
I'm reminding you that you earned your current success
