[Intro] |
|
DJ E Dubb |
|
[Verse 1] |
|
A young boy from the hood South |
|
I knew I didn't belong because I stood out |
|
My house burned down, left with nothing but a doubt |
|
I need me something new that I could learn now |
|
Riding in the old school, listening to old music |
|
Who granted, I really couldn't stand it |
|
But damn it, I love it now |
|
Put nothing above it now |
|
Which is why I never thought about rapping (Ha) |
|
I needed something more sweet |
|
Which is how I found out about a thing called R&B |
|
Unfortunately, nobody was supporting me |
|
That's why I kept it on the low like a submarine |
|
I remember the days being a rookie |
|
The ones that been playing the game would overlook me |
|
And once they saw that I was cold, producers started cooking me |
|
And all the new rappers got old so I say |
|
[Chorus] |
|
Thank you R&B |
|
You separate me from all of these locals surrounding me |
|
You brought out the cloud in me |
|
Now, I can shine |
|
I don't want to waste no time |
|
I just want the fame right now |
|
Be a celebrity, all of this fame, yeah God |
|
I just want to make it mine |
|
Hear me out, I deserve it |
|
I just ain't been heard yet |
|
Down low, it's worth it |
|
I'm just so glad I can do something these people can't |
|
And that's why I say thanks to R&B |
|
Oh thank you R&B (Yeah) |
|
[Verse 2] |
|
Singing in the shower but came |
|
Singing into a studio mic for a couple of hours and then |
|
I realized I was better than most |
|
Cockiness to the side, I had a hell of a float, for real |
|
I've always asked for a deal, **** a bargain |
|
Tryna get signed like a tree, bark carvin' |
|
My songs hot, they should charge me with arson |
|
And I kill the beats sick, call it coughin' in a coffin |
|
Singing to your girl on the phone, late at night |
|
Pleasure P did it wrong but I made it right |
|
Success ain't cheap, I'm working hard to pay the price |
|
Make way for Bryson 'cause I'm taking flight (Woah) |
|
I appreciate the haters |
|
And the "Tiller would never be famous" debaters |
|
And I appreciate every single prayer |
|
And thank God most for giving me the breath to say this |
|
[Chorus] |
|
Thank you R&B |
|
You separate me from all of these locals surrounding me |
|
You brought out the cloud in me |
|
Now, I can shine |
|
I don't want to waste no time |
|
I just want the fame right now |
|
Be a celebrity, all of this fame, yeah God |
|
I just want to make it mine |
|
Hear me out, I deserve it |
|
I just ain't been heard yet |
|
Down low, it's worth it |
|
I'm just so glad I can do something these people can't |
|
And that's why I say thanks to R&B |
|
Oh thank you R&B (Yeah) |
|
[Interlude] |
|
Man, I swear (Oh-wow) |
|
I love you, you know? |
|
It's something special to me (Oh-wow) |
|
I need it (I need it) |
|
I'ma do it (I need it) |
|
And keep going (I need it) |
|
And keep going (I need it) |
|
And let's go HQ |
|
[Chorus] |
|
Thank you R&B |
|
You separate me from all of these locals surrounding me |
|
You brought out the cloud in me |
|
Now, I can shine |
|
I don't want to waste no time |
|
I just want the fame right now |
|
Be a celebrity, all of this fame, yeah God |
|
I just want to make it mine |
|
Hear me out, I deserve it |
|
I just ain't been heard yet |
|
Down low, it's worth it |
|
I'm just so glad I can do something these people can't |
|
And that's why I say thanks to R&B |
|
Oh thank you R&B (Yeah) |
