the bottom

[Intro] Yeah… Funny how it works. I ain’t gotta win for ’em to hate. [Hook] They jealous even when I’m down (damn) Still watchin’ every move I make around (yeah) I ain’t got shit, still they countin’ my amount I could lose it all and they still wanna see me out They jealous even when I’m down Talk behind my back, then go quiet when I come around I don’t need a throne, don’t need a crown If I hit rock bottom, I’m still ten feet off the ground [Verse 1] I been broke, I been pissed, I been slept on Still walked in that room with my chest on Everybody tough when the pressure get gone Funny how the hate still lives when the check gone I don’t chase respect, I collect it Don’t ask for a seat, I erect it They pray I fall, I call that pathetic Every little loss just made me more reckless I see the envy hiding underneath the grin They don’t want me dead, they just don’t want me to win But I been counted out and counted back in So if this is the bottom, watch me build from within [Hook] They jealous even when I’m down (damn) Still watchin’ every move I make around (yeah) I ain’t got shit, still they countin’ my amount I could lose it all and they still wanna see me out They jealous even when I’m down Talk behind my back, then go quiet when I come around I don’t need a throne, don’t need a crown If I hit rock bottom, I’m still ten feet off the ground [Verse 2] Greedy with the dream, I ain’t sorry for the hunger Got a cold-ass heart and a mouth full of thunder They want me quiet, I get louder every summer Tryna put me under, I come back like a number I don’t need applause, I don’t need validation I built this shit off pure aggravation Every little doubt became motivation Now they study every move like an investigation They love you when you’re useful, hate you when you’re free Smile up in your face, then compete secretly I don’t need revenge, let ’em watch and see The hardest thing about me is I never stay beneath [Bridge] Down bad? Still dangerous. No cash? Still famous. No help? Still made it. No love? Still hate it. [Final Hook] They jealous even when I’m down (yeah) Even when I’m broke, they still wanna see me drown I ain’t gotta flex, I ain’t gotta make a sound My name alone enough to make ’em look around They jealous even when I’m down That’s the part that really got me laughing now If I can make ’em mad without a dollar in my pocket Imagine what happens when I finally get it poppin’. [Outro] Yeah. Jealous when I’m up. Jealous when I’m down. Guess I don’t gotta do shit— Just exist.
