[Intro]
That boy Don!
[Verse 1]
While they go the wide path I'm headed narrow
On point like an arrow, I'm on a new level
They hate, but going downhill, a wheelbarrow
I just keep going forward, I never backpedal
Matter of fact, no Drake, I'm going back-to-back
Try to cancel me but I flip the script like an acrobat
I bet they'd love me better if I was banging the trap or crap
Yeah, I used to rap for the world, ain't going back to that
Nah, no resurrection, I'm going in
And they tried to box me up but couldn't hold me in
They keep banning my voice, here we go again
I mean, try to name somebody that I don't offend
I don't know, you scared to be offended then you won't grow
Coming to America, I'm just letting my soul glow
Thought people was real, can't even holler for promo
They scared I'm taking their shine
They can take my platforms but they ain't taking my mind
I see you for the human you are, they shadiest kind
When I die they gon' say that I was great in my time
While I'm alive I get the hate, that's just the patience of mine
[Interlude]
It's crazy how I used to be one of the most loved
But I'm one of the most hated now because I speak the truth
They'll know the truth in the end though
[Verse 2]
I used to think that love is real, but now it's something I doubt
Stop comparing me to rappers that're just in it for clout
Be in the streets risking it all, they never be out
They're not getting canceled, FBI don't be at their house
I've never been on Fox News, but my album still hit Billboard
Other people ain't getting the shine they try to steal yours
They covet, it's all in their spirit, I know they'll kill for it
The Devil wants their soul, they're out here making deals for it
I don't make trendy songs, I make songs that trend
I start the wave, they ride the wave, they soak it in
I've met vicious enemies, I've met my closest friends
Some people hate but they fear me, so they just hold it in
I'm the one that can hop on any beat and spaz
Getting out the song without them having to ask
I do it for the culture, other folk do it for cash
Just tell 'em who the realest whenever they ask
I could sell my soul and have it all
Be pro-LGBT and just be quiet about it
Conservatives said I should just be silent about it
And stop being so harsh and sound like I'm violent about it
I'd rather tell the truth, y'all just be lying about it
This about integrity, I promise I'm dying about it
I could go with the world, I'd rather be popping without it
And they know they truth, they're hoping I stop but I doubt it
[Outro]
I know that's what they want, man
They Devil working but I'm working harder
Armor of God on
