It’s a long way to the top
A lot of people thought that I would stop but

I knew, I knew, I knew, I knew
I knew, I knew I could do it
I knew, I knew, I knew, I knew
I knew, I knew I could do it

Early morning you can catch me grinding
Late night, yeah, I’m still putting the time in

I knew, I knew, I knew, I knew
I knew, I knew I could do it
I knew, I knew, I knew, I knew
I knew, I knew I could do it

I put in work around the clock, you do on occasion
Hard work pays off, you minimum waging
I’m not like you, I work until I’m aching
You give up on your dreams and you only like three days in

Fight for what you want, don’t quit at the weigh-in
Don’t treat your life as a joke unless your last name Wayans
Learn from other people’s mistakes, you don’t have to make them
Some people have to fail to understand what I’m saying

I get it, I know, so they messed up, I won’t though
I work too hard and too long to make mistakes that I know so
They might talk down on me now because they gave up on they own goals
If you live in a glass house you should be scared of a stone throw, so shh

You want it bad enough you can do it
If you just watch me then I can prove it
Started just me and a dream, then I
Turned that into me leading a whole movement
Everybody around me eating
Because I wouldn’t take a seat when
They told me chill out, they keep it a bill
Now my visions weren’t what they were seeing

I get a cheque now, yeah
Look at my neck now, yeah
Full of baguettes now, yeah
Can’t help but flex now, yeah

My come up come with some commas
Can’t tell I’m a comma comma chameleon
That means I don’t need to be in your face
You should know I’m out chasing these millions

You gon’ see it when I pull up in that skirt skirt
Ask me how I did it putting in that work work
It’s a long way to the top but I work hard and
Trust no obstacle will stop me ’til I’m six feet in the dirt, you heard
