Be About It

I came from the low

From the shadow and the rain

Had to learn my name

Through the pressure and the pain

Every scar told a story

Every loss taught me grace

Now I stand in the light

With a different kind of face

I was down but I never stayed there

Kept the fire in my chest, kept it brandy and

The people who doubt me, they keep on talkin' cheap

I'm movin' with purpose, got a promise

Let's not talk about it, let's be about it

If you want the real, then come and see about it

I was smokin' on pills, shawty threw the brick

So when I was the way I am, yeah, I made it like this

Let's not talk about it, lets be about it

Won't you always show?

And I'm loud, but not shawty

Still got some nice sales

Tryna question my way

But I keep on rising every single day

Used to count our failures like money in the drawer

Now I count my blessings and I'm hungry for more

I'm the same heart, new rhythm

New pay, still got that fire and I wear it in my face

No silver spoon, just a groove and a fife

I turned my midnight into Saturday night

Every setback was a lesson in disguise

Now I walk with the truth and a spark in my eyes

Let's not talk about it, let's be about it

If you want the real, then come and see about it

I was talking, now I'm real, shine through the print

From where I was to where I am, yeah, I mean it like that

Let's not talk about it

Let's be about it

Gon' get in my soul

And I'm loud when I shout it

Still got some nice sales

Try to question my way

But I keep on rising every single day

Face some problems, let it breathe, let it ride

Rose in the pocket, keep that flame alive

No more debate, no more side conversations

I'm too busy building on a foundation

From the dark to the dawn, I kept moving on

'Til my doubt is a god, now the weak is gone

I don't need a pro

I don't need a chance

I just need the proof

And a little more faith in my stance

Let's not talk about it

Let's be about it

If you want the real

Then come and see about it

I was broken, now I'm built

And I'm tired of the fake

From where I was to where I am

Yeah, I live it in

Let's not talk about it

Funky in my soul and alive when I shout it

Still answer myself, try to question my way

But I'm cool rising every single day

Let's not talk about it

Let's be about it
