[Intro]
[Verse 1: VNCHY]
Broke n***as, but we soon to be rich
Don't know any other person more suited for this
Dreaming of hitting tours, when all these women are yours
You can't help but think dirty, as if you were doing chores
Oh lord, I want the chain, p**y and the fame
Only used to seeing change, these people remain the same
We started getting noticed they claimed I was acting strange
Everything I ever gained was at the price of a major pain
Daddy was a preacher, first he was a boxer
Struggle was a given man we never had an option
Momma held us together like brackets within a function
Taught to first listen, and only speak through action
Older brother in college, the other wasn't that social
The middle child, wild, but unmatched in my vocals
Started out locally, venomous potency
Spitting like a cobra, even older n***as learned from me
Overcome my age, it's more than just a phase momma
I'm not deranged I was born for that stage momma
If they talk sh** its all good, we can bring drama
And that's my word, have your jaw to the curb
Displaying my life in verbs hoping y'all can observe
And when I'm, kicking a verse, they gone shift in reverse
I'll have em shaking like a white woman clenching her purse
I'm striking a nerve
But man everything's got a price to be paid
[Chorus: VNCHY]
Knew that I could fight through the rain
Look at all the sh** I overcame
I'm committed to the pain
(I'm committed to the pain) X2
Seduced by the lights and the fame
Friends getting dropped for the game
Girl falls second to this thing
I'm committed to the pain
(I'm committed to the pain) X2
[Verse 2: VNCHY]
Dawg I'm bad to the bone marrow
I'm striving higher than a gold medal
Been holding sh** down heavy
They thought I was made of all metal
Yet I stay higher than a falsetto
A rebel without a cause
Of course I have my flaws, but are they any different from yours
The very same reason they put Jesus in charge
Is the very same reason he got put on the cross
That's the very same reason b**hes calling me boss
Faith in the cause I had never been lost
Since my vision had em giving me a round of applause
Thinking bout it before y'all thought I would fall
Not at all, never ended in a draw, son
Promised I'll make it before my times done
How come, they dare to think they can outrun
My whole clan man
You don't understand
Everything's got a price to be paid
[Chorus: VNCHY]
