All of Them

Pressure built the muscle, now the frame stay sturdy  

Lookong around , turned the struggle to currency  

They were chasing likes, I was chasing urgency  

Now the same ones copy every move in the mirror, see  

I don’t need the spotlight, I just need the leverage  

Turn a small idea to a bigger message  

They were sleeping on me, now they wide awake  

Tryna catch the wave but they already late  

I just keep it pushing, never lookin’ back  

Every scar a story, every win a stack  

They were talking reckless, now the tone get flat  

I just let the numbers do the talkin’ back  

Came from the same block, now the view look different  

Still the same hunger, just the plate got bigger  

They were chasing fame, I was chasing figures  

Now the same ones watchin’ while I stack it quicker
