[Verse 1:]
They wanna see my progress stifle, I'mma load this rifle
I'm aiming high to stack this money up tall as the Eiffel
Tower, we respec' an' empower
Gotta nourish my daughter 'cos she's a delicate flower
Gave dat to my little son and I told him the world is ours
Heard these n***as was plottin', ain't worried about them cowards
Cuh they ain't on my calibre
Tryna book so much shows, ain't no dates left on my calendar
Bitch, I need that healthcare, not no basic model Challenger
You know my pen is mightier than a S Caliber
Choppin' competition down like, "Where's my next challenger?"
Keep it official 'cause life is all 'bout the balance, bruh
Don't be that n***a that switch up soon as the cameras come
You gotta stay in control, just stay silent
And watch your blessings unfold and let your energy flow
No, I ain't preachin', I'm just lettin' you know
'Cause I ain't perfect, I still got room to grow

[Chorus:]
Uh, I just really need you (need you)
Don't hold me down when I'm down, lift me up, yeah
I just wanna know that, when I need you (need you)
You gon' be there, though you can't hit me up, yeah
Do you really mean it? I belie'e you (belie'e you)
When I tell you all my dreams, would you even wish me luck, yeah
Even on 'em days when I 'on' see you (see you)?
An' I been on the road, I just hope you keep in touch (keep in touch)
[Verse 2:]
Yeah, I'm tatted, I smoke and I like to read too
Just finished The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People
But the colour of my skin be makin' 'em feel I ain't equal
Don't you hate when they do that fake grin every time they greet you?
Paintin' pictures with words and I put my life on this easel like I'm Basquiat
Pass me the trees, no need to molly-pop
No, I ain't grow up wit' my mom and pops
But I'm thankful no matter what, even when I'm caught in a rocky spot
You know I kill 'ese mics
My will is stronger than Achilles' might
It's not the size of the dog in the fight
It's the size of the fight up in the dog
Bitch, I don't care how big or tall, motherfucker, you could get these paws
Remember I ain't have a bitch to call
But now them panties hit the floor before a n***a even hit the door
I came to get it all
They say that money isn't everything and I agree but I'd rather be rich than poor

[Chorus:]
Uh, I just really need you (need you)
Don't hold me down when I'm down, lift me up, yeah
I just wanna know that, when I need you (need you)
You gon' be there, though you can't hit me up, yeah
Do you really mean it? I belie'e you (belie'e you)
When I tell you all my dreams, would you even wish me luck, yeah
Even on 'em days when I 'on' see you (see you)?
An' I been on the road, I just hope you keep in touch (keep in touch)
