"By Myself" lyrics

I remember when they always bring me down
They said I would be nothing in this town
Now me and all my friends we shut it down
Now all I gotta say is look at us now

I'm back but I'm back with a passion
Ready for action, no more distractions
I'm back to issue my statement
It's funny when you start focusing they're suddenly hating
I'm back but now I'm anxiously waiting for any rapper to just come out my name
I was safe for my head, but they ain't ever getting close to my chest
Oh yes, come test, come prove, you're the best, boy
When I'm in the room they can't say it with their chest
See my flows effortless, so delicate
The way I rap is elegant, so evident
And I'm diligent to rap and represent
I'm detriment to any rapper from the city
Yeah, I started from the bottom but I'm still flipping here, boy
I'm gonna kill every single rapper this flipping year, boy
I'm gonna start making hits over here
Gonna make my momma proud this flipping year, boy

I remember when they always bring me down
They said I would be nothing in this town
Now me and all my friends we shut it down
Now all I gotta say is look at us now

Yeah I'm gonna do it by myself
Yeah I'm gonna do it by myself
I don't need no help
Yeah I'm gonna do it by myself
Yeah I'm gonna do it by myself
I don't need no help
Yeah I'm gonna do it by myself
Yeah I'm gonna do it by myself
I don't need no help
Yeah I'm gonna do it by myself
Yeah I'm gonna do it by myself
I don't need no help

So I funded my music with every penny that I had
I started making bangers when my opinion was really mad
People told me rapping in this city shouldn't be an option
But rapping in this city I been really popping
I remember the struggle we were living in a hostel
I'm never letting anybody ever stop my hustle
'Cause I'm way too enlightened, my conscience is brightened
Rappers be frightened
('Cause I kill them with a narcissistic tone
Now they getting all up in my zone)
But I don't let them in, no getting in, upsetting ting
Now they wanna say I left them out, guilt tripping ting
I started on my own so why would I need you
I'm still here I'm loved by the people
I don't see me changing this something evil
I realised I'm better, I fly like a eagle
I sting like a bee, but I'm strong like a beagle
I'm switching up my moves while I'm switching up my flows
I'm killing at my game while I'm killing all my shows
I don't really like to talk I really like to make it happen
I already know I killed this, I already hear the clapping
I do this for the real, I'm not in for no acting
I did this by myself, as you see I'm never slacking
Anyone who slept just know I'm back and snapping, just know

I remember when they always bring me down
They said I would be nothing in this town
Now me and all my friends we shut it down
Now all I gotta say is look at us now

Yeah I'm gonna do it by myself
Yeah I'm gonna do it by myself
I don't need no help
Yeah I'm gonna do it by myself
Yeah I'm gonna do it by myself
I don't need no help
Yeah I'm gonna do it by myself
Yeah I'm gonna do it by myself
I don't need no help
Yeah I'm gonna do it by myself
Yeah I'm gonna do it by myself
I don't need no help

Look at us now
