Be You Lyrics

(Uh)

They said "you've always been a dreamer, before rapping it was shooting hoops"

Momma cut the lights off me at 2

In the morning, I was shooting til I's blue

Always needing different shoes

Go to school

Had to flirt with all the girls, thought they was cute

What to do

Every day we wake, we pray, learn something new

But at the end just be you

(Just be you)

But at the end just be you

(Just be you)

Just be you

(Just be you)

I started hooping at the church with Mark

And at the crib after dark

Sunday school before the sermon

Pastor always kept a flask full of bourbon

(Damn, yeah)

But he ain't lie up in his wording

(Nah)

He confirmed me

I rebirthed

Now I know what my true meaning's on this earth

(What's that?)

Save some souls 'fore they get put in the dirt

(Okay, yeah)

I'll do his will by my work

And I been trying to save 'em quick cause I know they be hurt

(Me too)

Nobody told me that the world was so cruel

Since 17 man I just wanted Jewel

Drinking margs by the pool

Even then, man, I'll be strapped with the tool

Cause this world's full of fools

2021 I'm feeling brand new

When I was younger everything was so cool

Sometimes I lowkey miss school

Sometimes I lowkey miss you

(I do)

I do

(Damn)

It's true

They said "you've always been a dreamer, before rapping it was shooting hoops"

Momma cut the lights off me at 2

In the morning, I was shooting til I's blue

Always needing different shoes

Go to school

Had to flirt with all the girls, thought they was cute

What to do

Every day we wake, we pray, learn something new

But at the end just be you

(Just be you)

But at the end just be you

(Just be you)

Just be you

(Just be you)

They saying "Keep it up"

But they ain't thinking Imma get far

(Nah)

I'm battling my demons, Imma get scars

But once I defeat 'em then I can get cars

(Vroom)

Shoot for the moon and hit stars

They turning they nose up when I present bars

(Hmm)

Man, we all get cards

It's really how you play 'em

Manipulate 'em

To make 'em

Work out in your favor

I wasn't supposed to get this far but I can die later

(Damn)

I wasn't supposed to get this high my eyes are dilated

Meet my homies in the gym, we been trynna live healthy

And I been 'neath the radar, they think that I'm stealthy

And wealthy is subjective but I'm trynna be wealthy

So I been writing hella songs getting smooth like jelly

I don't believe half the shit that they put on my telly

(Nah)

I step back, pull up, call game like I'm Chelsea

(Game)

I can make myself into the man when they don't help me

(Yeah)

If he can take yo bitch, she ain't yo bitch

I learned that shit in school up on that Haley shit, I hated it

(I hated it)

Found a new man, she on fugazi shit

Part of who you are, though, I created it

Just wait a bit, bet that I'm the favorite

And Imma state the shit

(Damn)

Hold up, I just made a hit

I gave you all my heart, girl, why you play with it

(Why you do that)

So smooth on that player shit

You made that bed, go lay in it

(Yeah)

Cause I don't fuck with traitor shit

(Nah)

They said "you've always been a dreamer, before rapping it was shooting hoops"

Momma cut the lights off me at 2

In the morning, I was shooting til I's blue

Always needing different shoes

Go to school

Had to flirt with all the girls, thought they was cute

What to do

Everyday we wake, we pray, learn something new

But at the end just be you

(Just be you)

But at the end just be you

(Just be you)

Just be you

(Just be you)
