Jay Cartier - Nothing Happens Overnight Lyrics

If they told you I was losin' you've been disillusioned
They said that ima problem well who is the solution
I'm tryna build my empire but I'm not luscious
If I consider you family then you get included

I mean this should end all the confusion
If I let you beef with me it's cuz I need amusement
I'll even send a critique like "it needs improvement"
These niggas clueless if they have a brain they need to use it

Just like they have a gun but never seem to shoot it
I remember I was going through it
Girl you should be in gymnastics since you jump to conclusions
These niggas cruisin' for a bruisin' just like a contusion

It's proven
That I've been improving
Don't be hitting my cellular just to be a nuisance
Every time I kill the beat the scene is so gruesome
I've been on edge so I wouldn't make no sudden movements

If you talking money then I speak it fluent
I want the green like a vegan and ion don't need the gluten
You might catch me touching road you can see me cruisin'
The beatscan make a speaker blow I know the beat abusive

I remember those who said I couldn't do it
I remember those who said I shouldn't do it
I remember those who really put me through it
I told you that "you shouldn't overlook me", stupid

The studio is like my second home
I be so focused I barely check the phone
I also think the introduction is what sets the tone
When I'm in my zone I like it best if I was left alone

I know that nothings set in stone
Except that engraving that's on my headstone
Ima make the most of this until I head home
I just pray they remember me when I'm dead and gone

But let's change the subject I'm very alive
The shit that I pull off leaves em very surprised
When it comes to first impressions I'm very polite
I'm tryna stack up the paper till I'm buried alive

Your very demise is in my hands now
Disrespect wouldn't be wise I tell em stand down
Back then you were hating but you a fan now?
Sometimes you don't plan it that's how it pans out

I need "all that and a bag a chips" money
Forever defending champ can't take the chip from me
Now she texting tryna get the **** from me
I told her that ship has sailed another ships coming

Social media is telling you who poppin' now
Your follower count determines if you got it now
Niggas tryna ball but shit be out of bounds
Take notes on what I'm saying better jot it down

I used to need a plan but look I'm plotting now
My jumper good in clutch I always knock it down
Back on my own two if I got knocked down
When I was down I had no doubt that things would turn around

Whoever does the dumbest antics is who earns the crown
If this the house that they built then Ima burn it down
I'll say it again just now you heard it now
I'm the best one you never heard about

That means I'm the one to be concerned about
Soon enough I'll be the one they gonna learn about
I am the source no need for word of mouth
I take my problems to the gym I always work it out
