Gotta chase the money I been grinding all day
Protecting mine cause like a thief they gon' try and take this shit all away
Rez baby turning nothing to something my motivation is pain
No matter what I'm holding onto my faith
Gotta chase the money I been grinding all day
Protecting mine cause like a thief they gon' try and take this shit all away
Rez baby turning nothing to something I'm motivated off pain
I went up, and they was tryna bring me down
I went up, but they ain't fucking wit me now
I went up, and I coming back down
Put a jacket on my soul when this world get cold
I told god show me the way cause I'm living off hope
Ninety nine problems but I keep it a hunnid won't change up
Staying true to my roots just like I came from the rubble
I was born a champion won't take that from me
Come from the dirt roads where this shit get muddy
I had dreams of sitting up at the top just like an eagle when he fly in the sky
I got it in me not on me just like my physical heart
Won't fuck around I gotta make this shit count
I'm ten toes when I'm standing my ground, I took flight like levitation they be asking me how
My circle full of natives I can't really fuck with no crowds
The perfect timing bitch my time is right now
You see me going up, man on the moon shoot for the stars like an astronaut
See me at the top they gon' really try and pick me apart
Say what I am and what I'm not but they got it twisted like a fucking knot
No matter what I'm holding onto my faith
Gotta chase the money I been grinding all day
Protecting mine cause like a thief they gon' try and take this shit all away
Rez baby turning nothing to something my motivation is pain
No matter what I'm holding onto my faith
Gotta chase the money I been grinding all day
Protecting mine cause like a thief they gon' try and take this shit all away
Rez baby turning nothing to something I'm motivated off pain
I went up, and I was tryna make you proud
I went up, and they was tryna bring me down
I went up, but they ain't fucking wit me now
I went up, and I coming back down
Yeah
Let me tell you a story, in the closet I recorded talking to the mic
yeah, turned me into a poet, youngest but wise like I was the oldest
I ain't perfect I got flaws and I can't sugar coat it
This music making moves that a 9 to 5 couldn't
They heard the route that I'm taking and told me that I really shouldn't
Now that I'm up like the sun I got them sweating bullets
Make 'em think twice yeah, before they overlook me
Going crazy they know that I'm so wavy before I go
Imma put moms in a mercedes this for the people who love and also hate me
Soon they gone hear me everywhere yeah on the daily bliss
Kid and Soul-G (kid)
Yeah, that's my homie (yeah, yeah)
Yeah we going to the top together, together oh
No matter what I'm holding onto my faith
Gotta chase the money I been grinding all day
Protecting mine cause like a thief they gon' try and take this shit all away
Rez baby turning nothing to something my motivation is pain
No matter what I'm holding onto my faith
Gotta chase the money I been grinding all day
Protecting mine cause like a thief they gon' try and take this shit all away
Rez baby turning nothing to something I'm motivated off pain
I went up, and I was tryna make you proud
I went up, and they was tryna bring me down
I went up, but they ain't fucking wit me now
I went up, and I coming back down

Ooh baby, the day you stepped into my world
You noticed I'm the kind of girl who loves her diamonds and white pearls
So tempt me to jet set away in London
To sip on some tea, you surprise me with gifts from Tiffany
Ooh (La la la la la la la la)
I love the way we livin' boy
But my daddy say, "You don't need that boy"
So let's run away, let's run away (way, way)
Momma say I'm too young for love
And lovin' you is all I'm thinkin' of
My heart tells me that you're the one
It's the feeling you give, it is
Pure bliss
Like you've got the key to my heart
Simple as a touch and a kiss
Never knew a feeling like this
Pure bliss, pure bliss
Nobody can tear us apart
Baby it's as good as it gets (Kiss kiss kiss kiss)
Loving you will never be hard
This is pure bliss
I remember, when the pilot closed the door
Said it's time for lift off, you said, "What'd you choose me for?"
Don't ever wonder
'Cause you deserve the best
Once you reach the top you'll never question why you left
My world is yours
What you waitin' for?
Let's run away
Let's run away
Our friends, say we're crazy
But we can't listen baby
They've never had it like this
They don't know what it is
Pure bliss
Like you've got the key to my heart
Simple as a touch and a kiss
Never knew a feeling like this
Pure bliss, pure bliss
Nobody can tear us apart
Baby it's as good as it gets (Kiss kiss kiss kiss)
Loving you will never be hard
This is pure bliss
