Lyrics

(Chorus)
Life is full if up n downs but I just can't complain Stand out in the crowd because my style is not the same man I been on my game never switching up the game plan I can never stop (stop) , I cannot be contained man And I been getting change on the lowww But I will never change for the dough And pretty soon my name they will knowww I'm Tryna make it out the underground

-Verse-
Fans showing me love haters tryna kill my buzz This that shit I gotta deal wit Stress I'm tryna conceal it Out my mouth is only real spit Since oh nine you already know That was way back and we still rap and my team is ready to blow And my niggas ready to go Had my back since day one All these lights cameras and shows Don't mean nothing less they come But it's still about the music yea it's been about these beats I see young kids that's doing it tryna get up out these streets But this life ain't for everyone, gotta fight n shoot the fair one N that's Lone Lez on this beat, got you leaking out ya ear drums I don't fear none cause I feel numb Flow stupid it's still dumb, competition I killed them but that's neither here nor there bro CT homie now lets go

(Chorus)
Life is full if up n downs but I just can't complain Stand out in the crowd because my style is not the same man I been on my game never switching up the game plan I can never stop (stop) , I cannot be contained man And I been getting change on the lowww But I will never change for the dough And pretty soon my name they will knowww I'm Tryna make it out the underground -Verse- I'm out now, I broke threw Beast mode with them pro tools New soul, old school Feels good when they know you Y'all talk about it, I do it, make the whole club go stupid Couple haters in the building and I hate to put you threw it (Look) If you don't like then close your ears I been grinding for the last 4 years You hella hating, we celebrating, more bottles, more beers From open mics and mic checks to getting owners to write checks I made the right flex or just type text, roll up and we gonna light next Them studios and them stages, white girls throwing ragers Got them go-go dancers, all wilding out in them cages That's what it's like when you make a name not chasing paper Not chasing fame, just doing what I love, nah man I can't complain

(Chorus)
Life is full if up n downs but I just can't complain Stand out in the crowd because my style is not the same man I been on my game never switching up the game plan I can never stop (stop) , I cannot be contained man And I been getting change on the lowww But I will never change for the dough And pretty soon my name they will knowww I'm Tryna make it out the underground

-Verse-
Making moves all on the fly, CT we on the rise Scaling walls hitting new heights Run the city with these new Nikes Still deliver that hot flow Tryna ball til these knots swole Do my thing with that rock bro Then pass it off to Camacho
Alley-oop and I'ma break the glass we making music they making trash, that's classics, all day, record a track and make it last Hours up in that booth, you are tuned into the truth Then I pass it back to talent..
Fade away when I shoot (kushh) Paved the way for that youth, once they walk a mile in my boots Seen this work that we put in-
I'm just tryna get my foot in So I work hard without talking, I run shit, y'all walking Grinding all alone from home..Macaulay Culkin

(Chorus)
Life is full if up n downs but I just can't complain Stand out in the crowd because my style is not the same man I been on my game never switching up the game plan I can never stop (stop) , I cannot be contained man And I been getting change on the lowww But I will never change for the dough And pretty soon my name they will knowww I'm Tryna make it out the underground
