Sidelines

[Intro] One thousand Biz busy on the boards I hear 'em cheering from the sidelines Wait, hold up, I think they hatin' People told me take my time, right? Nah, they tired of waitin' They say "Crae, you sold your soul, man" For real? Who bought it? "Let the Spirit take control, man" I don't go nowhere without Him [Verse 1] They scared that I'ma cause these babies to stumble They scared that my integrity is gon' crumble, appreciate the prayers But all that pressure either gon' make you humble Or make you hang out on the sidelines, and fear you gon' fumble Put me in coach, ain't out here flexin' for nobody I was born to do it, God don't make mistakes and say I'm sorry He ain't never dropped the ball I don't never plan to fumble Catch me runnin' with them lions Reggie Bushin' in the jungle Came from nothin' I remember spendin' summers on the corner with my cousin Shootin' dice and playin' dozens Me and BJ in that Cutlass, CD playin' missin' buttons Up at Lincoln High in Dallas with that Jesus Muzik bumpin' Now it's Joseph graduation Turn on that radio and T-Dot on the station I remember when we used to split the rent up UGK was bangin' loud inside his pickup Wait, let me pick up Back when promoters wouldn't let me back in 'Less I pay 'em on a back end, that ain't happenin' We just pray to God that somehow He would let us crack in Tore that door off of them hinges Told us, "Get it crackin'" [Hook] I hear them cheering from the sidelines People told me take my time, right? Hear 'em cheerin' from the sidelines Hold up, I think they hatin' People told me take my time, right? They tired of waitin' [Verse 2] They braggin' they in the buildin' Ain't building nothin' We out here building the children, you know I love 'em, boy Spit it how I live, feel it in my breath Walking it like I talk, put it to the test Gina, get to steppin, we get to startin' You dream of bein' a king but you watchin' the wrong Martin, Bruh Man This ain't the fifth floor, it's the penthouse Either you change your outlook or get out And life ain't never been a dream, you just oversleepin' If it wasn't hard work, they probably cheatin' Give that arrogance some rest This ain't happen overnight, that's why I do this thing to death I might do this 'till I'm deaf, dumb and blind You know I don't need my eyes to see my faith working fine Never mind me I ain't worried about how they define me Long as they can find me they'll never confine me [Hook] I hear them cheering from the sidelines People tell me take my time, right? I hear 'em cheering from the sidelines Hold up, I think they hatin' People tell me take my time, right? They tired of waitin'
