Geelow45 - Less Than Lyrics

They said we less than gotta do more just to stand tall
But every man puts his pants on-same way that's law
Long as I give in you control what I believe
I ain't a puppet I won't let you pull no strings on me
Taught to accept less while we work twice hard
But I'm done with that game I ain't playin' that card
Tryna shift my mind make my thoughts like yours
But I'm woke to the truth I don't live by your scores

I will always rise above speak my mind I do it in love
Never pretend like I don't know never claim your ideas my own
That may be all that you know but that ain't how I flow
I see the truth I walk in light I'ma shine I'ma glow

Tell me where they do that at? All over the map
Try to box me in but I ain't built for that trap
America got rules but I rewrite the page
I refuse to stay silent I'ma break out the cage
You say I gotta grind double just to be seen
But I know my worth I don't beg for a seat
No more playin' small just to fit in your frame
I define success I control my own name

I will always rise above speak my mind I do it in love
Never pretend like I don't know never claim your ideas my own
That may be all that you know but that ain't how I flow
I see the truth I walk in light I'ma shine I'ma glow

If I let you lead my thoughts then I stay in chains
But my mind been set free I ain't built that way
You ain't gotta like me but you gon' respect
Every step that I take every move I project
I don't stack up to you I just stand in my truth
I ain't gotta prove nothin'-I got nothin' to lose
I do more 'cause I choose to not 'cause I need
And I plant my own roots I don't beg for no seed

I ain't livin' by permission I move with a mission
This is bigger than me it's a whole coalition
Breaking cycles breaking walls breaking all the traditions
I was born for this fight I was built for the vision

They label us as less make us question our worth
But I been knowin' who I am ever since my birth
I ain't just another name that you check off a list
I'm the one that they watch yeah they know I exist
So don't tell me to be quiet don't tell me to fold
I done paid all my dues now I'm breakin' the mold
No more sittin' in the back I was meant to be seen
I'ma stand in my power live out every dream

I will always rise above speak my mind I do it in love
Never pretend like I don't know never claim your ideas my own
That may be all that you know but that ain't how I flow
I see the truth I walk in light I'ma shine I'ma glow


I move different I think different I break every chain
You can't hold me you can't mold me I create my lane
I ain't gotta do more just to prove I belong
I was made for this moment I was built to stay strong
