[Intro]
Man look at me now
Shit
Yeah, yeah, huh
[Bridge: UBI]
I was grinding, working on assignment
Looking for consignment, boy I couldn't find it
Don't wonder where the time went
Now I'm out here shining
All this coal I'm mining will turn into a diamond
Take a look at me now
[Hook: Maez]
I done made it out the gutter
I was working 9 to 5 to survive
Now I'm w-w-winning, look at me now
All I get is Ws, to compete you need double yous, hah
Look at me now
You know with a style like mine
Put down for the town like I
Look at me now (look at me now)
And honestly, I cannot think of any place the boy would rather be
Look at me now
[Verse 1: UBI]
Yeah take a good look running with the best in the city
That's a good look
Had to have a couple thousand sitting on a cookbook
Knowing I got the talent to get it
Now all I need is a good push
I put in work when I hit the scene
I was in the street with the green tryna live a dream
Look at what the inner city lifestyle did to me
Now I'm trying to graduate a rap from a triple beam
Never shot a gun or took a sip of lean
Had to kick a couple doors in, couldn't get the key
Anything my inner vision see I knew that it would be
Long as I never listen to suckers tryna limit me (U-B-I)
I'm officially up, it's my time
Finna get rich in this bitch or die tryin'
Chilling, good company, sip the fine wine
If they bullshittin' you better kiss them bye-bye
No time for play, soul signed away
Looking for my face on a roadside display
Some of y'all saw, need a clothesline to hang
They said I would look better in bowties than chains
But uh, my opinion, I wear it well
You might be looking at me thinking that we're parallel
I catch a dub even when I catch a pair of Ls
Got the club spinning me around like a carousel
Take a look
[Hook: Maez]
I done made it out the gutter
I was working 9 to 5 to survive
Now I'm w-w-winning, look at me now
All I get is Ws, to compete you need double yous, hah
Look at me now
You know with a style like mine
Put down for the town like I
Look at me now (look at me now)
And honestly, I cannot think of any place the boy would rather be
Look at me now
[Verse 2: UBI]
What you're looking at now is the product of truth speak
Kill a couple shows and slide over a few beats
Jot it on loose leaf, how you cut a record
But forgot to include me
When the way I'm moving wetter than water like Bruce Lee
Now all I'ma do me
Living in a pit with no bottom is too deep
Tryna see my name sit on the top of your newsfeed
I will never die young, I'm not a Belushi
I'm copping a two-seat
Living everyday like the plot of a movie
I came a long way from anonymous dude
Shake and I dry, martini with olives and blue cheese
Serving but never sip on a bottle of Louis
I run a race like McQueen, I'm a machine of speed
All I need is squat and a crew chief
When the fact is poverty stop what you need
You flip a lil strawberry and cough a blue dream
They thought they knew me, lot of you dudes sleep
Thinking it's all weed, models, and groupies
No way I'ma ever pay a prostitute's fee
I'ma plead the fifth if and they prosecute me
Catching a dub, I be getting love
Never bothered with beef
Trip on a problem with you please
Forever the Cru Ces, Godemis, UBI
There'll never be another spawn on my team
Follow my lead yeah
[Verse 3: Maez]
Now when I'm talking they listen
Now when I walk in it's mentioned
Now when I'm missing they miss 'em
I kept it Strange, I was different
Now I don't choose or she choosing
I hit it once then it's useless
I always strive for improvement
I gotta win, no more losing (No more)
Now it's no more losing though (No more)
I put my mind to this shit
Knew I'd do it all (I knew)
Now if you hold me down and hold me down (Hold me down)
I came up from the ground
[Outro: Maez]
Look at me now
I done made it out the gutter
I was working 9 to 5 to survive
Now I'm w-w-winning, look at me now
All I get is Ws, to compete you need double yous, hah
Look at me now
You know with a style like mine
Put down for the town like I
Look at me now (look at me now)
And honestly, I cannot see anywhere else I'd rather be
Nah, look at me now
Look at me now
I really puts it down
Yeah
