Tigwe - Gravy Lyrics

This the shit that they can't take from me
The shit that make you numb make you feel it in your tummy
This sound victorious sound so glorious
No way home I'm the Spider-Man nemesis
Back then when you said I was different
You said I couldn't make it you sounded so stupid
With your old-school vans and your oversized pants
God blessed me with a gift and I got open hands
Fantastic girls doing handstands
I'm the man I just won another grand slam
And I'm feeling so fly like I'm Peter Pan
I just touched down, I just got a show in Neverland
Understand
He hopped in a whip
He parked too close to the crib oh man
Now these people know my ride everything fugazi
No one cared I was still in that old basement
So face it
Yeah I had to face it
Told em make bread bought my own bakery
Got myself a dime and her middle name Avery
Everything shine still brown like gravy
So take me back back to a time
When the sun still shine
And the sky still blue
The grass still green
And the flowers still bloom
I used to freestyle back of the classroom
Now what am I exactly to do?
They told me play smart don't play by the rules
We always want more man it's never enough
But still we made it here so we got to thank God

It's been a year
I'm still here
I show no fear
Cause I know God got the boy, God got the boy, God got the boy, God got the boy
It's okay, you see this crowd here?
They give me all ears
Cause they know God got the boy

Chronicles of a lost boy
Momma told me hold my head high and spread joy
How I'm making waves while in school a tough choice
Got to pay my dues nothing free in this cold world
Got some homeboys I ain't spoke to in six months
I think I lost my mind I've been gone for so long
Heart turned cold same time my brain freeze
Tryna work it out tryna stack on my protein
I was seventeen used to dream about big things
This shit ain't what it seem paradise on the green screen
I'm moving ten toes on the ground like centipedes
Only Lord knows how I got these proceeds
For anyone that's new to this wave it's okay
You are now witnessing greatness in all stages
You are now sharing the room with Young Prodigy
Butterfly out the cocoon it's so proud to see
I be hanging out with the moon like no lie
When we come across the sky we say Hi
Remember when I sat in my room and just cried
Never knew what I could do with these rhymes
Middle finger out to the world like John Kennedy
Got me some off-white tees and my dungarees
Gotta put my foot in the door they gone remember me
Do it for the ones at home for my family

It's been a year
I'm still here
I show no fear
Cause I know God got the boy God got the boy God got the boy God got the boy
It's okay, you see this crowd here?
They give me all ears
Cause they know God got the boy God got the boy God got the boy God got the boy

It's the re-up
It's time to get the re-up
And now they blowing smoke like onomatopoeia
Everyone just caught up in the matrix
Hope you understand what I mean when I say this
Best believe that my feelings run deep
But who am I to love when I can't love me
Excuse me I got got to go
I just feel good that I got got to know ya
