RiZ - Gold

Earned It, Deserve It

This that real, iKonBy25
Hear me out though

Look, I grew up, took a walk in my shoe
Believing in who I am so I could never be you
That ain't a diss but in the mirror I come to grips with the truth
I got a handle but if I slip, it's from the choices I drew
Not you
That's my mind and the choices I made
Follow ya heart, think smart, that's just the way I was raised
Don't forget you gotta brain unless you wanna get played
I'm so dope I gott'em phased that's why they call me amazing
Take look up in my book and see the world that I'm in
Yeah the odds is stacked against us they don't want us to win
Well we could do kinda good, just not better than them
The weapon formed against us is the color of skin
But it's a blessing in disguise they colorblind it's a sin
We was born with this light you gotta pull from within
Shine on anything satan, and you always gone win
Dropping bombs on the haters guess they gone with the wind
And fade-away, I'm too old for the games you play
I speak it to motivate, embracing the rainy days
They shooting I ricochet
Deflecting a bad day
For the cream no lactaid
Shining through the Milky Way
The doors are closing but it's open with ya mind as the key
They hold as back and try to limit all the options we seek
This the land of the free but they treat us like sheep
I'd rather die on my feet than live life on my knees

I know I earned it, I deserve it
So if you hating, what's ya purpose
I know I earned it, I deserve it
So if you hating, what's ya purpose
Fuxk niggas hating, The real ones ballin
Live iKoniK, and you gonna keep evolving
Fuxk niggas hating, The real ones ballin
Live iKoniK, and you gonna keep evolving

Attracted to greatness my favorite temptation
People will sell their soul but success is what you make it
You niggas can't tell me shxt, my momma said amazing
I stumble and get up quick, I run it like Marshall Major
I'm climbing over niggas with ladders
Kuz I'm working past their advantage
I want it and go and grab it
I'm elevating status
I hustle but see you panic
No matter what I get handed
Killing the disadvantage
Who hating, it really don't matter
Everybody wanna be God, without the crucifix
Sacrifices bring you alive, you ain't doing shxt
So maybe put ya pride to the side and you could do some shxt
Everybody wanna be Hov but talking ludicrous
Life a battle, it wanna see you bend
Debating times of our lives up on CNN
People can double cross you then they call you kin
Surround ya self with peace that started from within

I know I earned it, I deserve it
So if you hating, what's ya purpose
I know I earned it, I deserve it
So if you hating, what's ya purpose
Fuxk niggas hating, The real ones ballin
Live iKoniK, and you gonna keep evolving
Fuxk niggas hating, The real ones ballin
Live iKoniK, and you gonna keep evolving
