Yeah
Funny how the closest seeds get the clearest view of your downfall
Is that you?
Come on, let's talk tonight
You smile like a saint, but your smiles made of snakes
Every prayer you fake got a knife in the grace
Said I wish you well, but with hate in your breath
Tryna bury my name, couldn't dig deep enough
You prayin' I fail, that I trip, that I bleed
While I'm buildin' a legacy, you busy plantin' weeds
Act like you care, but you poison the well
Every hug feel cold, yeah, I knew you too well
You count my losses like it's money you made
Celebrate my stress like it's holidays paid
Talkin' shit behind doors, real brave-ass move
Face to face, you quiet, that fake-ass groove
I was starvin' for love, you was starvin' for control
Tried to dim my flame 'cause you scared of the glow
Every beat realistic was a leash and a lie
I broke free, now you watchin' me touch the sky!
Fuck that love when it's laced with hate
Fuck that blood when it contaminates
Bitch, I rose from the shit you spread
Now I'm livin' rent-free in your head
Motherfucker, I made it despite your prayers
While you rot in envy, stuck in your layers
You wanted me small, you wanted me dead
Now say my name, yeah, choke on that instead!
What would you assert? I call it sabotage
Every word you spoke was a soft espionage
Talkin' like a guardian but movin' like a rat
Sellin' my dreams before I told you that
You never clapped when I won, just sighed
Every milestone met with a jealous-eyed lie
You wanted obedience, not my success
Wanted me broken so you could feel blessed
Actin' helpful, but your soap been cheap
Countin' my steps like I'm on my feet
I bled in silence, you laughed in shade
Now you mad 'cause I mastered the pain
You fed me doubt like it was love
Called it care, but it fit like a glove of a hand 'round my throat, smilin' sweet
While I gasped for air and still wore a treat
Fuck that love when it's laced with hate
Fuck that blood when it contaminates
Bitch, I rose from the shit you spread
Now I'm livin' rent-free in your head
Motherfucker, I made it despite your prayers
While you rot in envy, stuck in your layers
You wanted me small, you wanted me dead
Now say my name, yeah, choke on that instead!
You hate that I'm different, hate I ain't fold
Hate I didn't rot when you told me grow old
Every time I shine, you look away quick
Like success to you tastes like poison dick
You call me reckless 'cause I don't obey
But I'd rather be real than safe and afraid
You picked comfort, I picked the war
Now you judgin' my scars like you paid the score
I saw your eyes when they mentioned my name
That twitch of regret mixed with uncut shame
You wanted my downfall to justify yours
But I kicked that door and rewrote the laws
You wanted me dependent, quiet, polite
Instead, I chose truth, chose fight, chose fight
Ain't that my script you can't rewrite
While I freestyle like you read your blood at night
Fuck that love when it's laced with hate
Fuck that blood when it contaminates
Bitch, I rose from the shit you spread
Now I'm livin' rent-free in your head
Motherfucker, I made it despite your prayers
While you rot in envy, stuck in your layers
You wanted me small, you wanted me dead
Now say my name, yeah, choke on that instead!
