Big L.C.T. - Independent Lyrics

They didn't wanna see me like this
They didn't wanna meet the new impression
They didn't wanna see me doing well
They didn't wanna see me this effective
They just wanna see me fail, yeah
They didn't wanna see the new perspective
A lot of things have changed but I'm still
I'm independent
I don't know how else to help you get the message
Own the masters to my songs not a percentage
I got bands up in my bank that's what I'm spending
F*ck a deal it's only me that's gonna get it!
I'm independent, independent, independent
I would bet on me 'cause I'm a good investment
Silver on my wrist but I don't come in second
I'm independent, independent, independent
If you told me when I was 14 I'd be right here under 21
I'd be ecstatic
Rap and do what I want to do and I'm good too
That's fantastic
All the rap I've heard so far just this year
It's all tragic
But it's just helpin' my net worth, my catalog
And my assets
I'm so glad I'm independent man
So glad I'm on the offensive side
Of the fence now not pretendin'
That I could work a little 9-5
With a boring life and a pension
If I had your life, I'd be mortified
Take a 45 and just end it
I see a lotta people who be livin' life and they actin' like
They got more than that it's pathetic
So just in case, it's the only one
I'm a rock this shit and I'm a give a f*ck how I spend it
Music saved my life more than once
Back when nobody even gave a f*ck
These bonus years on my table dawg
Ain't no other way I can play it off
I'm independent
I don't know how else to help you get the message
Own the masters to my songs not a percentage
I got bands up in my bank that's what I'm spending
F*ck a deal it's only me that's gonna get it!
I'm independent, independent, independent
I would bet on me 'cause I'm a good investment
Silver on my wrist but I don't come in second
I'm independent, independent, independent
I got clout at 19 that's why I'm pretentious
There ain't "I" up in team, find out who your friends is
I just had me a dream, then made that the present
Only workin' for me thought you learned your lesson
Ain't no question I'm half as fake
And I'm still impressive
I fly girls in from different states
But I'm still domestic
Said I ain't shit in 2014
I'm still offended
Talking shit from apartments
Where you might be my tenant
Woah!
I booked a studio I gotta
Go!
Airbnbs when I'm out on the
Road!
When I'm pullin' up ain't a shortage of
Hoes!
Dream of a life where I'm out doin'
Shows!
I'm just doin' me & that's just how it
Goes!
I'm f*ckin' sick homie grab me a
Coat!
I'm f*ckin' lit homie I'm tryna
Blow!
There ain't a chance that I'll be goin'
Home!
I'm independent
I don't know how else to help you get the message
Own the masters to my songs not a percentage
I got bands up in my bank that's what I'm spending
F*ck a deal it's only me that's gonna get it!
I'm independent, independent, independent
I would bet on me 'cause I'm a good investment
Silver on my wrist but I don't come in second
I'm independent, independent, independent
I'm independent, independent, independent
I would bet on me 'cause I'm a good investment
Silver on my wrist but I don't come in second
I'm independent, independent, independent
