Mean Something Lyrics

I know some people got it in for me

I been in the streets, I'm doing better, building industries

And platforms

Spoke into a mic and garnered infamy

If I ain't gon' stand then I'mma fall, and that's the penalty

Thrill trip

Flew out to LA with my brothers

Heading west for something different

Still I prayed for my mother

See she was sick and looking out for me still

I couldn't sleep 'cause in my dreams I seen her writing her will

But it's whatever

Had to tell myself it's fine and go and rhyme over beats

I found distractions, started asking if grape soda's elite

'Cause that was better than these thoughts I couldn't bare to complete

We linked with Shane and Thoughts and cooked and that was hardly reprieve

Yo, pardon my speech

I'm ranting 'cause I barely get to saying this

We was on a journey said to hell with all that hater shit

Fuego spitting fire had me writing with my pain again

And took me out a lane I would have stayed if I ain't made the trip

And every time I thought about my mom I played them songs

I sent em out

Heard Sofia say she glad I'm staying strong

And making music still

While I'm pushing numbers on a remix

That's friends and fans spitting something I barely completed

What the fuck

I am the product of my ancestors

How you think I made it here

I'm showing love to all my people

Y'all the reason that I'm staying here

When I ain't see it in myself

You looked at me and said you mean something

And that shit means something

For real

Dipped out from LA, me and and Cam and Steph went to Vegas

Seen a couple favorites, I dreamed of making them stages

I still ain't make it but damn it if I ain't making

My mark still

I'm patient but waiting ain't in my favor

I'll say it

If I'm tryna get my head from in the clouds

I'mma have to speed it up 'cause time ain't one for slowing down

Yesterday I'm on the train, Frank and Danny as the crowd

And today I'm with my mom, she at the hospital in gowns

And it's cancer

That's what's on the dome when I'm missing out on shows

Ask me why I couldn't go

I don't even got an answer

Tryna give this everything I have 'cause any day could be her last

And all the while she calls my ass

And I don't answer

Huh

I guess it's funny

All this work I'm putting in only takes the time from me

Told Sadiq I'm finna quit he was hearing nothing from me

Said put faith in your creation bro

You know you good money

It's timing and dedication

Thriving takes preservation

Grinding like you're deprived, that's a sign that you close to breaking

Diamonds don't just arise it's pressurizing that makes 'em

Be mindful of who's behind and beside you, you not forsaken, nigga

Now I'm reminded of crying when I was 17

My uncle passed, I was failing classes, and couldn't breathe

Yeah, I used to pray to God to star in better scenes

Now I grab a mic and got the city standing on it's feet

Cheering me

Natie from the 'Bury living for the present

Tired of rushing, tryna hurry, fighting to keep my presence

Speak my piece to find my peace and that ain't always pleasant

They singing praises like

Nate we just thankful someone says it

Yves, Rob, Deion

Tomo, Kei, Kieh

Murk and Johnny

Breezy, Exo

Kleo, Nahli

P and Ty

And the ones I couldn't list 'pon the earth and in the sky

Thank you for the motivation, y'all the reason I'm alive

What the fuck

Yeah

We are the product of our ancestors

How you think we made it here

I'm showing love to all my people

Y'all the reason that I'm staying here

You knew I ain't see it in myself

You looked at me and said you mean something

And you know that shit means something

Yeah that shit means something

Yeah that shit means something

For real

I am the product of my ancestors

How you think I made it here

I'm showing love to all my people

Y'all the reason that I'm staying here

When I ain't see it in myself

You looked at me and said you mean something

And that shit means something

For real

For real

Thank you, Thrill

Thank you, Colours

Heart and Soul, Midas, Family Famous

Sound Lab

Jasmine, TeaTea, Sophia

Everybody, thank you
