Flight
Rich Brian Lyrics

Now I see that everybody start to fuck with me
I have noticed that everyone is beginning to support and appreciate me

'Cause they feelin' like I'm finna get them as an OG
They believe that I will become a respected figure and mentor to them

Flame lowkey
I am being modest about my talent and success

On the top of the dictionaries talkin' down on me
Critics and haters are criticizing and belittling me

And I always say, 'Guess we'll see'
In response, I confidently say that time will prove them wrong

Guarantee that you'll always finna think I'm on speed
I assure you that you will always assume I am on drugs due to my rapid progress

Sound a little trippy, think I'm on LSD
My music might sound unconventional, making you believe I am under the influence of LSD

14 when I started doing it, home school kid never knew he was a prodigy, ayy
I began pursuing music at the age of 14, as a homeschooled individual, unaware of my own exceptional talent

Get back on the track, with the crack stack
I am returning to the music industry with a strong determination to succeed

Pilin' in my wallet, gettin' fat like a Shake Shack
My earnings are increasing significantly, comparable to the growth of a Shake Shack burger

Pictures on my Snapchat, that's all I got about last night
The only memories I have of last night are captured in pictures on my Snapchat

All I know is shit was goddamn tight (ayy)
All I remember is that the experience was incredibly enjoyable

Went to America, shit is feelin' biblical
My visit to America feels like an extraordinary and significant event

All my life I only saw it on the digital
In the past, I only witnessed America through online platforms

Said, 'I don't give a fuck about a mothafuckin' po'
I express my indifference towards the opinions of haters and critics

On the beach so I could be smokin' indigo
I am relaxing on the beach, enjoying some indigo-colored smoke

Flyin' 20 hours never felt so right
Traveling for 20 hours has never felt so satisfying and fulfilling

They say I get better as the days go by
People believe that my skills and abilities improve with each passing day

I'm just tryna be the GOAT
I am simply striving to become the greatest of all time

Used to see them walk by
I used to watch others pass me by

Gettin' ready for this life
Preparing myself for the challenges and experiences that come with this lifestyle

All I see is red and white
My focus is solely on success and achievement

Landed in Chicago, met the customs
Upon arrival in Chicago, I encountered the immigration officials

Mean muggin' mothafuckers let me tell ya something
Intimidating individuals gave me hostile looks, but I have a message for them

And I almost got deported back to the home town
There was a close call where I nearly faced deportation to my hometown

'Cause I didn't know what road my hotels on
This almost happened because I was unaware of the location of my hotel

Then I met my manager, Sean 88 chillin' in the passenger
Fortunately, I encountered my manager, Sean 88, who was relaxed and sitting in the passenger seat

And I'm feelin' tripped out, seein' him for the first time
Seeing him for the first time left me feeling surprised and overwhelmed

Worked overseas for a year, that's a long run (88)
I had a substantial period of work and success overseas, which lasted for a year

Now I'm finally here, what now, what to do next? I don't care
Now that I have achieved my goal of being in America, my focus is on the future and I don't worry about it

Every single day feelin' like I'm on a mission
Each day, I am driven and committed to achieving my objectives

Workin' with Pharrell on my first damn session
I had the opportunity to collaborate with Pharrell during my initial recording session

Never had to write in a room with nobody
Unlike many artists, I never had to compose music alone in a room

Feelin' under pressure, man this dude made 'Happy'
Although I felt the pressure, considering Pharrell is the artist behind the hit 'Happy'

Wrote a couple bars while chuggin' on a Red Bull
I wrote a few lines of lyrics while consuming a Red Bull energy drink

Then all of the sudden, all my work is turned to vapors ayy
Suddenly, it feels like all of my hard work and efforts have become insignificant or transitory
