Talk That Talk Lyrics

New sights from higher levels in my new house

Months before I came along, the competition blew out

Acquaintances already planned ahead on getting flew out

I find that ironic, you the one that would leave me chewed out

All of a sudden, everybody feeling proud of me

It's all the same people who was doubting me

Who heard my name and would instantly get to clowning me

Got on the news once, now they all surrounding me

It shows how quickly that everybody switched

I used to be alone, now I got everybody's bitch

I'd prefer to call them women if they really loved the kid

But half these girls already know that love is not legit

I remember struggling to feel accepted by the public

Here I am, still trying to feel accepted by the public

Feared how everybody gon' critique and leave me judgment

Hoping that I'm somebody that everybody fuck with

Everyone congratulating me, but I ain't proud

So what, I did some shows and I sold out a couple crowds

So what, I'm undebatably the most influential inside my town

I'm standing tall now, but when I'm dead, I'm underground

No such thing as success, if you don't want nothing less

There ain't a no without yes, so where would failure be guessed

I'll be standing correct, y'all be standing corrected

And have a therapy session, I don't care if I'm blessed

Because I ain't happy, I'm stressing

You talk shit on my name, so you feel some type of gain

They hate for days and days, that's a different type of rain

They put you down, but they don't want you to go try again

Cheer against you even when you in your final game

Even without a will, you treat me feral

But it's okay, you know my songs better than christmas carols

Riding around with the homies you think would die for you

Taking bullets for them boys that be behind the barrel

Giving rides to the homies that do them drive-bys

Looking at the girls who only gave you side eyes

Feeling unappreciated, looking for attention

It's still some songs I got by people I refuse to mention

You know you doing something right if you got all your opps' attentions

You got all your opps' attentions

I used to drop a song and get some texts for celebration

Now they ask me why I'm rapping about our situation

Until I tell them that it ain't about our situation

No eres importante, go google the translation

I'm at my mirror practicing my standing ovation

Thanking all the homies who stuck with me from the basement

Laughing at the ones who was too cool to be hanging with the rapper

In the school of dreams higher than education, bitch

Aiming higher than going on to a simple college I'll be happier than all of y'all, and that shit's a promise

Chasing dreams, don't give a fuck if everybody seems to laugh

Because the hands and screams from millions is all I need

Or a couple thousand is even amazing

To know I helped somebody is the only shit I'm chasing

I used to pinch myself to make sure all of this was real

It's my fault for being here, listen and tell me how you feel

I used to pinch myself to make sure all of this was real

It's my fault for being here, listen and tell me how you feel, bitch
