Lyrics
[Intro]
High as Pluto
My life a film and I'm the one cuttin' the trailer to it
Some days I don't even wanna step out when the air get cruel
If you can picture it clear enough you can make it true
They say it's all for a higher reason but it still feel brutal
[Verse 1]
My life a loop with new scars
The ones who swear they love you first be the ones who move hard
They tell me I'm the one like I ain't carry that from the dark
Tryna hide all the pain like a silk shirt over a mark
[Verse 2]
They tell you it ain't real but you can still see the blood
I'm workin' overtime for the fam and all of my blood
Mama worked overtime for the man and all of his rules
That's why I wear this hunger like a black suit under the moon
[Chorus]
For the nights that she gave away I'm bringing it back again
Now I'm working overtime for the fam
Mama gave her whole life to the man
Now I'm buildin' somethin' bigger with these hands
[Verse 3]
My flow in overdrive I can't coast
Had to learn how to hold all this weight and still move like a ghost
Gotta pay it forward to my people that's the code
All these racks got me dreamin' 'bout peace not just gold
Heard them talkin' you can tell when they never put in the grind
I was outside like bark on a tree all through the night
Got a force in my chest like the sky put charge in my spine
I just bought a place by the water watched the whole tide shine
[Bridge]
I'ma always tell the truth just believe in me
I'ma always tell the truth even when it cut deep
Got a power in my voice not the loud type the real kind
The kind that come from watchin' your people lose years and still smile
[Pre-Chorus]
Please believe in me
Please believe in me
I'm not chasin' just shine I'm tryna rewrite the family tree
Please believe in me
I'm not flexin' for sport I'm tryna give us a better sleep
[Outro]
Oh Pluto
Far from the ground but I still feel home-sick
Oh Pluto
Too far to touch but I still stay focused
For the man
Mama workin' overtime for the man
For the man
Now I'm workin' overtime for the fam
Mama gave her whole life to the man
Now I'm buildin' somethin' bigger with these hands
For the nights she gave away
I'm bringin' it back again
