Next Up


(VERSE 1)

Shoutout to my day ones and my niggas that done stayed down
Coming from that Maryland but now I'm in The Bay now
Back and forth with meetings in LA taking the Greyhound
Living life my own way so there's nothing they can say now

Man I gots to get it
Remember days when I had no pot to piss in
Sitting frustrated with the opposition
Cuz ya not convincing
Y'all acting faker than some lock extensions

Taking everything that God has given me straight to the top
While I'm shining a lot cuz the spot is missing
Better stop your bitching cuz nothing can stop my vision

As I'm on the road to riches and I'm faded while I'm drivin the muhhfuckin whip aye
Lotta niggas hate it but I'm still gon make it lovin this shit while I'm chuggin a fifth so

Any shade that they throw my way Imma treat it like it's nothing I don't trip
I just say a little rhyme I wrote when I was younger and it go a little something like this aye


(BRIDGE)
Whenever my head down, I just keep my head up
Struggled at the bottom damn, now its time to get up
I put it on the fam, that my plans to get this bread up
I hope they understand I'm feeling next up


(CHORUS)

(performed at the same time)

Bitch I'm next up, bitch I'm next up, yeah I'm next up
Flexed up, bitch I'm flexed up, yeah i'm flexed up
Was fed up, with my head down now my head up
We gon get this bread up, feeling like I'm next up (2x)

Life is really what you make of it
I'm just grinding and I'm taking risks
Celebrating getting faded, I suggest you niggas step up
I ain't saying I'm the greatest, yet, all I know is that I'm next up


(VERSE 2)

I swear this is my new theme song, playing this in a casino
Only stepped in with like ten dollars, but imma leave with some G's tho
Please pardon me for my ego, y'all just really gotta understand
This is for all the times that I was down and out but right now nigga I am up again look who I'm up against (no one)

Wake up every morning so blessed then I get right to the paper yeah we gon grind
Cuz my fam at home worry bout me too much, this one's for you momma please don't cry
Soon you're gonna wipe your eyes with the money that imma send to you we gonna be alright
Imma cold ass nigga from the 301 getting turnt up like i'm from the 305
Shoutout to my niggas in the 415 and all the pretty hoes in the 510
Tappin that (pause) like a xylophone
Off of the recordings on my microphone
Just thinking about quitting my 9 to 5
To be living that life nigga I don't know
But I feel so damn close that I gotta keep pushing myself only time will show so...


(BRIDGE)


(CHORUS)
