I built it from the ground up
Act like they found us
From the sign of the label, tried to drown us
I built a boat in a moat for my castle
I graduated to a businessman, I got ta**els
Another chapter, another story, another plot
Mother f** the ball in their court, I took a shot
Three presidents in 5 years, I never stopped
While they worried about the single sales,
The albums flopped
Oh Lord, Lord, Lord there they go
Trying to f** me out another but I ain't a ho
I produce and write my own sh**, I know the score
I'mma drop another mixtape, and go on tour
We ain't playing games man, I'm too grown
For you to try to take me out my motherf**ing zone
For you to try and tell me I ain't motherf**ing known
I guess I gotta do it how I done it on my own, uh
I been a free agent n***a
I been a free agent n***a
Even when I was signed
It was multi 'til I die
I've proven motherf**ers wrong
Every goddamn time
I been a free agent n***a
I been a free agent n***a
Naw they can't hold us
Put my whole team on my shoulders
Now there's money on the way
'Cause the contract over
What good is a team if they don't ball out with you?
Domino business they'll fall out with you
At the table with the majors they go all out with you
'Til you're underground with it, they won't crawl out with you
So they serve, serve you a plate
Full of scraps and the bait
You ain't eating so you ate
You ain't moving so you shake
What you can
'Cause you gotta drop another album
But ain't make a mother f**ing dollar, oh!
Mane it's hard to understand
How they rob a n***a then go shake his other hand?
How I hit the road when I ain't never have a chance?
How I sell out shows and I ain't even make 'em dance?
How I ain't a gimmick but I got all these fans?
How I made in merch what you got in your advance?
How I work the tape like I was bagging up the grams?
How a country boy took that country sh** and ran? Uh
I been a free agent n***a
I been a free agent n***a
Even when I was signed
It was multi 'til I die
I've proven motherf**ers wrong
Every goddamn time
I been a free agent n***a
I been a free agent n***a
Naw they can't hold us
Put my whole team on my shoulders
Now there's money on the way
'Cause the contract over
