Deceitful blessing

Tekst utworu

[INTRO — LOW VOICE / SLOW] Yeah… Go ahead. Talk about me. Say my name. Pray on my downfall. Matter fact… Pray harder. You might need it. ⸻ [VERSE 1 — CALM / CONTROLLED] I heard they waiting on X to collapse. Sitting around like my fall is a fact. Talking like everything built won’t last. Meanwhile I’m moving forward. Never looking back. They want me broken. Want me defeated. Want every promise I made uncompleted. Funny how people swear they don’t need me… But watch every move like their life depends on seeing it. Ha. So talk. I’m not stopping you. Tell ‘em I’m finished. Tell ’em I lost it. Tell ’em the pressure finally got in my conscience. Say whatever makes your story feel honest. Meanwhile… I’m still here. Still building. Still moving. Still proving. You praying for destruction. I’m planning evolution. I don’t need revenge. Your obsession is enough. Imagine hating somebody… And still watching everything they touch. ⸻ [PRE-HOOK — BUILDING] Keep speaking on my downfall. Keep my name inside your mouth. Every word you throw against me… Just spreads my name around. You can pray I never make it. You can pray I lose it all. But if you’re waiting for X to break… You’re gonna be waiting a long time. ⸻ [HOOK — BIG / AGGRESSIVE] Pray on my downfall! Go ahead. Pray! Tell the whole world X ain’t built to stay. Say I’m gonna lose. Say I’m gonna break. Say whatever helps you sleep at the end of the day. Pray on my downfall. I don’t mind. I’ve been walking through fire my whole damn life. Speak on my name. Wish on my fall. There’s only one problem… I DON’T STOP. Nah. I DON’T STOP. Every time they bury me… I come back stronger than before. So keep praying on my downfall. I’ll give you something to pray for. ⸻ [VERSE 2 — FASTER FLOW] Look. You don’t know what it took to get here. You only know what it looks like now. You weren’t there when the room got dark… And everybody disappeared somehow. You didn’t see every night I questioned… If the road was worth the pain. Now you see the crown. Now suddenly… Everybody got something to say. Interesting. They don’t hate the struggle. They hate when you survive it. They don’t hate ambition… Until you actually apply it. They love confidence… Until somebody beside ’em gets it. Then your growth gets treated like personal disrespect. I learned that. So now… Let ’em talk. Let ’em whisper. Let ’em lie. Let ’em make another story trying to explain why I rise. I ain’t clearing up rumors. I ain’t begging for approval. I’m too busy becoming… Everything they called impossible. ⸻ [BREAK — SPOKEN / QUIET] You know what changed? I stopped trying to prove who I am… To people who already decided who they wanted me to be. Eventually… Your life speaks louder than their mouth. So… Let ’em talk. ⸻ [VERSE 3 — RAPID / SHARP] Let ’em pray. Let ’em hate. Let ’em wait at the gate. Let ‘em swear this the year I’m gonna break. Let ’em watch every move. Let ’em study my page. Let ’em smile in my face… With resentment and rage. I see it. I just don’t react. That’s the difference. Old me would’ve fought every rumor. New me understands… Silence hits harder when your results get louder. I became unavailable… For conversations beneath me. You don’t believe me? Cool. Watch. That’s easier. Keep talking like you know where I’m headed. Keep acting like the story already ended. Every time they thought I hit my limit… I extended it. Every time they built a ceiling… I forgot it existed. That’s why they uncomfortable. X don’t move like he used to. I stopped letting people who couldn’t survive in my shoes… Tell me what I should do. Now I’m calm. Cool. Focused. Unbothered. You praying for my downfall? I’m praying you find purpose. ⸻ [HOOK — BIGGER] Pray on my downfall! Go ahead. Pray! Tell the whole world X ain’t built to stay. Say I’m gonna lose. Say I’m gonna break. Say whatever helps you sleep at the end of the day. Pray on my downfall. I don’t mind. I’ve been walking through fire my whole damn life. Speak on my name. Wish on my fall. But understand one thing… I DON’T STOP. Nah. I DON’T STOP. Every time they bury me… I come back stronger than before. Keep praying on my downfall. I’ll give you something to pray for. ⸻ [BRIDGE — SLOW / EMOTIONAL] And that’s what bothers ’em. It ain’t that I never fall. I do. It ain’t that I never bleed. I have. It ain’t that I never lose. I’ve lost plenty. The difference is… Every time life puts me down… I get back up. You can’t teach somebody to quit… When quitting ain’t inside ’em. ⸻ [FINAL VERSE — CINEMATIC / POWERFUL] So speak on my downfall. Make it your morning conversation. Turn my failures into entertainment. Build your whole personality… Around waiting on my devastation. I hope it gives you motivation. Because while you’re watching me… I’m working. While you’re talking… [outro]
