LYRICS

Aye
I got my mind on being the best
Nothing can stop me, no time to rest
I don’t want fame
And I don’t want accolades
I’m tryna get what I’m meant to get
Nothing in life was meant to be given
I know what I’m worth and I don’t want less
I show ‘em my move
But they playing checkers and I’m playing chess

Always be thinking ahead
I cannot go live in the past
I’m moving fast
All of the trends they follow today
But they never last
Going out sad
I’m doing me
No matter the day or the time of the week
Always been sticking to what I believe
Nobody getting me out of routine
Wake up and do all the things that I gotta do
I don’t been scrolling online all day
Looking at them just to see what I shouldn’t do
I don’t be taking advice from fakes
They wanna show all the highlights
Of how they be living to hide all the pain away
Only be living through likes and the views
That ain’t the way that I’m moving I cannot relate

I got my mind on being the best
Nothing can stop me, no time to rest
I don’t want fame
And I don’t want accolades
I’m tryna get what I’m meant to get
Nothing in life was meant to be given
I know what I’m worth and I don’t want less
I show ‘em my move
But they playing checkers and I’m playing chess

I told myself to believe in the process
And I would get everything that I wanted
I put the foreign inside the garages
I don’t be spending my time on the nonsense
Wake up and think about what I accomplished
But I can’t settle for anything less
Look in the mirror and see my reflection
Know that I got a whole lot coming next
Never been one who would look for attention
I just been living my life on the low
Taking my time with the way I’m progressing
Got it all loaded I’m ready to go
All of the battles been teaching me lessons
Had to go through it in order to grow
The time has arrived and I’m coming to get
Everything that I’m owed

I got my mind on being the best
Nothing can stop me, no time to rest
I don’t want fame
And I don’t want accolades
I’m tryna get what I’m meant to get
Nothing in life was meant to be given
I know what I’m worth and I don’t want less
I show ‘em my move
But they playing checkers and I’m playing chess
