Promise. - Overcame & Conquered (feat. Brii) Lyrics

Say my name no Yonce
It's for what y'all say
And that's on periodt
Yeah that's word to Chauncey
Getting paid while y'all play
Forget what y'all say
Made my decision
And Im taking the long way

Failure not an option
It's apart of the process
Y'all playing heavy D
'Cause I'm a lakers type of offense
Motivation at an all time high
So stop the none sense
Send ya best regards
But Imma do me regardless
Not heartless but heart listen
Bar are finger licking
Whole house hot,
You'd think it's Christmas in the kitchen
Chef kisses
Word to my dreams, got tunnel vision
Y'all thought that I was kidding
But I trust my intuition
Turned this love into a business
Forever on a mission
Everything I do is always
With much ambition
Deserve some recognition
Young black and wit it
Take Shot after shot
And Still got mad ammunition

What is left for you to do
When it's, all of your fears
Now facing you
And I think it's time
Lace up your shoes
Cause it ain't no holding back
Cause your joy depends on you

All this pain I got
No use to holding that
My emotions, I control
My Brother told me that
No more games within my mind
Take my controller back
Gripped it with no strings attached
Sent it cause my mental's back

Gotta believe it
'Til they all see it's true
Quick to judge
But never seeing my point of view
Growing up
They always tried to stop us
From living out our dreams
Changing up the scenes
And still we
Make it through all the drama
Get the picture don't try to crop us
Can't always skip to the end
Put in the time first
No one else could top us
Overcame and conquered

Overcame and conquered
The biggest trials in my life
They swore that it would stop
Must of forgot her
No feelings locked up
Put it all out on the table
Food for thought they stock up
Twenty twenty turning twenty
Like I'm why not Russ
You Know what's up don't give up
I'm steady chasing after my dreams
All the things that I've seen
Trust in God and believe
It's more than the money to me
Music is me how can't you see, Can't you see

What is left for you to do
When it's, all of your fears
Now facing you
And I think it's time
Lace up your shoes
Cause it ain't no holding back
Cause your joy depends on

So many nights I cried
Song in tears I wrote
One night thought about you
Then my heart just broke
But deep inside
I told myself that you could win
Took every feeling I had
And let it flow out of that pen
It goes Dear grandma
I miss you, I really do
But I know you in heaven
Saying I'm proud you
Got my heart on my sleeve
That's one that I can't lose
More to tell than what's seen
But they don't tell the truth
Black woman and I'm gifted
Come up in this thang
And the whole game shifting
Dollar to my name
But I'm on the road riches
Earn respect up in this game
And to the greats that it was given
I'm go and get it

Gotta believe it till they all see it's true
Quick to judge but never see my point of view
Growing up they always tried to stop us
From living out our dreams
Changing up the scenes
And still we
Make it through all the drama
Get the picture don't try to crop us
Can't always skip to the end
Put in the time first
No one else could top us
Overcame and conquered

Gotta believe it
'Till they all see it's true
Quick to judge
But never seeing my point of view
Growing up
They always tried to stop us
From living out our dreams
Changing up the scenes
And still we
Make it through all the drama
Get the picture don't try to crop us
Can't always skip to the end
Put in the time first
No one else could top us
Overcame and conquered
