Beyond It

(album: B.O.D.Y. - 2023)

Uh

Wise man once said never be a label
If you let 'em tell yo' story, they'll incarcerate you
They choose to see you through that lens, but that's a narrow vision
I really chose to be myself and trust my intuition
I really do write down my goals and bring 'em to fruition
I wish I would sell my soul just for some recognition
If you don't lean into that pain, it'll get repetitious
See, everybody claim they real, but what's yo' definition?
Man, I get chills from all them stories just here reminiscing
Ain't seen my father, so big brother was my living witness
My momma only did her best to give us proper living
This for the times I felt alone and kept my composition
My opposition, nonexistence ain't no competition
This for my tribe and for my guys watching from them skies
They looking down, I know they proud on how I shift the odds
I finally got what I was worth, I'm giving grace to God, oh my God
So grateful, so grateful

I've been running on E
I've been running on E
I've been fueled by the pain
Fueled by the pain
Not too many I can trust these days
These days
I've been scarred from the game
Scarred from the game
Use it all for motivation, if I'm honest
If I'm honest
This is way bigger than myself, I'ma be honest
I'ma be honest
I'm living life like a king, I'ma be honest
Be honest
No negative vibes, I am beyond it
I am beyond it
I am beyond it
I am beyond it
I am beyond it
I am beyond it

Uh, wise man once said nothing
'Cause even silence has a certain language
I feel like Basquiat when picture painting
My observation from this view is nonetheless amazing
Giving all the praises, I'm the one
In my family tree, that's breaking all the chains
This shit get tough, keep on falling down
Keep on getting up, wish me luck
This shit to divine, seek, and you shall find
In the battle with my inner self
Focus on dropping me a classic on my road to wealth
I'm making steps, I took that chance when they would never dare
I shedded tears for this freedom when I inked the deal
I'm getting chills, that means my family gon' be straight for real

It's so surreal, this for my angels on them cotton fields
Before this here, you planted seeds so we could make it real
I see beyond this three-dimension, know my vision clear
I'm going higher 'cause my legacy, I hold it dear
And while I'm still here

I've been running on E
I've been running on E
I've been fueled by the pain
Fueled by the pain
Not too many I can trust these days
These days
I've been scarred from the game
Scarred from the game
Use it all for motivation, if I'm honest
If I'm honest
Shits way bigger than myself, I'ma be honest
I'ma be honest
I'm living life like a king, I'ma be honest
Be honest
No negative vibes, I am beyond it
I am beyond it
I am beyond it
I am beyond it
I am beyond it
I am beyond it
