Obstinate

From 8-10 Wake up
From 10-8 Make Dough
From 8-12 Get High
From 12-8 I Stay Low

Back on track days long what I'm training for
Sequence the events and pack a snack for the road
Canteen filled with the H20
Gotta stay hydrated you know
Running the game like a decathlon
Lone in the race why the pace is my own
She say the backstroke do more than keep it afloat
Hurdles in the lane better stay focused
You gotta rise high like you vault poles
Tryna check for change but my vault closed
Safe at the base then I'm sliding home
Too stubborn gone overcome any obstacles
Forces unstoppable
Cost to go cross the go
Big biz pay me the toll

Im just tryna get my pockets swole
That's why Im out here selling these falafel rolls
Obstinate so can't nobody hold me I won't be controlled
From 8-10 Wake up
From 10-8 Make Dough
From 8-12 Make love
From 12-8 I Stay Low

I take a queen upon a date cuz she tickle my toes
Footsies with Keke under the table
Bread coming endless
Service is gold
Came by to check and make sure we like what we ordered
That's why my team be coming with scents and y'all odorous
But still y'all insist on putting your noses in
All of that risk just what is the goal?

When after the bets placed I'm watching you fold
Here the same short tired old story goes again
Left with no pesos cuz you hoped to win
Without the chips vacate the premise quick and exit the casino
Es mi Casa in case you forgot it
Don't forget business big imma have to hold a tax
To pay the doormen back
Don't expect redemption this your only chance
Just me and Marley I got the sack and the Doge
The Mac and the wolf
The bag and the crypto
Just goes to show you the more you know

The more you grow
How I am supposed to row without rocking the boat
My flow gets deeper than currents running below
Pressure turn the stone to coal to a diamond before your eyelids close
You cold blooded in the winter its shown
Games with the code if you knew it was broken
Then you'd understand why my shoulders is frozen
Grinding long days that's a 6 to something
Lifetime player never gonna quit the hustle
Shining from far away like my armor was orange
Spend the dough cuz the only option is to keep getting a bunch mo
Business meetings to scale up the revenue streams
Feast with the team or even better with family
Shooting hoops with the gang take a L and you paying for it
Waking up early enough to hydrate at the juice bar
Shopping in the city with full pockets and empty hands
Faith in my systems bills coming in so I spent the advance
No association but they totin masks and bandanas
Spirit walking sometimes I stop a second and survey the land
Listen to all the sounds that's around so I understand the dance
Music is boundless the power in the upper five ranking
Table ain't too shabby except the edges like to stab knees
Tired of turning these tight corners feeling claustro
No phobias allowed in the psyche
Lockdown so I gotta get out of the house yo
My last shawty told me that I gotta get out mo
For me they never needed to explain why
For my head to get workin on how to provide
And leave em wondering when and where I find these dimes
Some folks is grabbing the gems to show em off
But I'm playing it wiser
Hold the ice in a box and make em watch while I juggle the fire
Balloon to sky how I'm taking you higher and
Healing them
They can only admire
From the love I can never get tired
Juice fresh I can only inspire
