Up
What you mean – how I'm living
I could show you how to live
Show you how to give
Open up these doors for these kids
Show you what it is, what it ain't
It don't matter what they think
It's what you think – what you know
What you think you know – ya know?
It's your roots – how you grow
Buried deep for the rain
Now you reign – you was poor
Understand it ain't a game
But – life's a track meet
Don't be dead meat – don't be sleep
Don't concede defeat –
Just keep moving - on ya feet!
Gotta go – Gotta go
I'm up and I'm on a roll
I get it I'm on the road
It's an honor just to roll
I remember times and people what would never let me grow
And they pulled so I pushed Then I had to let them go
Now I'm grown and they know that I get it on my own
Everything I have I own –
I will always bet on me – I will always bet on me!
'Til the day I can't breathe
And the day I can't breathe is the day I ain't me
I'm up and I'm on my way, I tried and tried and tried
I made it – I feel alive I'm up so high
The cloud is my carpet – no I ain't done yet
So until the sun sets – I'm Up, I'm Up I'm Up!
Bitch I'm way up – Gone stay up
And still I'm on my way up
Some niggas tried to play us
But they can never say much
When you grinding like every day –
Now you getting it in every way
Oh now they mad
Bitch I'm way up – Gone stay up
And still I'm on my way up
Some niggas tried to play us
But they can never say much
When you grinding like every day –
Now you getting it in every way
Oh now they mad
They rather see my die – than see me fly
So I stay wise – rest with one eye
And I'm so high - I'm up, I'm up
I'm so high – I'm up
They can't see me, like Stevie
Wonder where I be G
Give them hebegebes like they need me - yo these thieves be
Trying to steal my shine and my cheese B
Remember I am Merk!
Get caught you deaded I said it
See I am just the dream
The plot delivered in the scheme
Changing lives changing scenes
Getting money eating green
Living the vibe – moving through time
Easy young'un don't kill my vibe
I am finally alive
They could never say "you owe me"
I did this on my own – really I owe me
And you! You know me
I should live life gloriously – like royalty
I show love cause its Free
You nothing like me
They notice me or they know it's me
Either way respect ain't free
Shout out to the team moving clean
No triple beam – still we selling Dope dreams
Know what I mean
Bitch I'm way up – Gone stay up
And still I'm on my way up
Some niggas tried to play us
But they can never say much
When you grinding like every day –
Now you getting it in every way
Oh now they mad
Bitch I'm way up – Gone stay up
And still I'm on my way up
Some niggas tried to play us
But they can never say much
When you grinding like every day –
Now you getting it in every way
Oh now they mad
Bitch I'm way up – Gone stay up
And still I'm on my way up
Some niggas tried to play us
But they can never say much
When you grinding like every day –
Now you getting it in every way
Oh now they mad
Bitch I'm way up – Gone stay up
And still I'm on my way up
Some niggas tried to play us
But they can never say much
When you grinding like every day –
Now you getting it in every way
Oh now they mad
On now they mad
I could show you how to live
Show you how to give
Open up these doors for these kids
Show you what it is, what it ain't
