Control ft. SpitFire Lyrics

Yeah, some soul shit, man Real ones gon' appreciate this one

Yeah, this growin' up shit is gettin' real

Been workin' hard but can't seem to catch a break still

Mama told me go to college cause she never did

It's hard to pay attention when I'm tryna pay my bills

Damn, but just imagine how it really feels

Workin' 40 years and you ain't got shit still

She deserve a big house with some gold drapes

And a gym just to jog even when it rains

Yeah, that's why I'm here just to change the pace

See life's a game so I'ma play but I ain't playin' safe

I'm seekin' vengeance cause my mama she deserve a wraith

But all this fuckin' world gave her was some heartache

Damn, you need some stamina to win this race

This long distance not a sprint but I got what it takes

Fuck all the mainstream generic ass bullshit

This from the soul, real ones gon' fuck with it

Yeah, she said you in control, baby

Just keep goin', ain't no lettin' up, baby

Your ambition, it's gon' take you far, baby

Pay no attention to the hate because the hate won't pay me

Yeah, she said you in control, baby

Just keep goin', ain't no lettin' up, baby

Your ambition, it's gon' take you far, baby

Pay no attention to the hate because the hate won't pay me

Feet on they neck

For all of the times that they try to keep me oppressed

But I already knew I had the juice

It's all gravy, I ain't mad at you

Cause when you're not that good then you see great

Well, that's what lames'll do

As I reflect back

It was dark times but I made it through

Bossed up cause I paid my dues

Man, it's crazy what a year can do

You pretend down and you stay in your lane I know it hurt, I once felt that pain

When you know that you the greatest

But they still won't mention your name

But Sam Cooke said it best God damn, man somethin' gon' change

But we got so used to the rest

We don't realize when we blessed

Momma said, girl, hold your head

Everything gon' turn around for ya

Now it's 2023 and we coppin' AMGs with no miles on it

I'd never throw the towel in

But damn sure I'd throw the towel on it

I'd never go against my beliefs Just to have a lit moment

Always knew I was the meal ticket

I don't know cause I was built different

The crab in the bucket that made it out

Same nigga but I feel different

She said you in control, baby

Just keep going, ain't no letting up, baby

Your ambition, it's gon' take you far, baby

Pay no attention to the hate because the hate won't pay me

She said you in control, baby

Just keep going, ain't no letting up, baby

Your ambition, it's gon' take you far, baby

Pay no attention to the hate because the hate won't pay me
