"The Come Up" lyrics

Another day I put my life on the line
I'm coming up on years of trying to taste what is divine
Accumulating lessons learned
Dodging thoughts that bring fear

That kill my pride
And let it known that I'm a loner out here

Don't think about it when I start feeling doubt
Explained myself to everyone
I know they won't hear me out

This is a part of the come up
I'm far from feeling discouraged
I came to take what I want
Cause we know that I earned it

And I know just what you want
You wanna bring me down
Bring me crawling
(Crawling back to my doorstep)

But that won't happen
Nah, not again
See I'm a player in this game
And I'm playin to win

It's just a hard knock life
But it gets a little better every time I try
A couple dollars in my pocket
But I'm still grinding to eat
Cause you know I push my limits
Hustle 'til I succeed

You turned your back on me
When I needed you the most
You thought I wouldn't be shit
And you expected me to choke

Well I'm coming back with vengeance
And I hope you get the message
I know my place is on top
Ima grind until I get it

And when I get it
Ima show off
Let you know just what you lost
Don't play with my money if you can't handle the cost

That's the first rule of the streets
Don't follow they'll blow ya dome off
Pussy niggas like you just irk me
Worst than a crooked cop

And I know just what you want
You wanna bring me down
Bring me crawling
(Crawling back to my doorstep)

But that won't happen
Nah, not again
See I'm a player in this game
And I'm playin to win
