Xavier Ingram - Value Lyrics

I got a chip on my shoulder, big as Mount Everest
I ain't make it yet, so no time for restin
365, 24-seven, I ain't stoppin
Till I live like the Jeffersons, money stacked tall
I'm in the sky with the Jetsons
Life keep testin, tryna teach me a lesson
Yeah, tryna teach me a lesson
I got him
Tryna teach me a lesson
They be like, yo, why you charge $50
Cause I'm about my commas, it's value behind these bars
Like the prison complex, value behind these words
Why is your mind so vexed
No stress when I'm in the booth
Can I tell the truth
Your own kind be the biggest haters
Dumpin' out the roof
Slick shots from your closest crew
You tryna be the proof
That you can make it anywhere
If you want, if you choose
Just cause you don't value yourself
Don't put your value on me
Or what you think I'm worth
Don't be countin' my fees
I'm comin' from the bottom, dirt piles of leaves
So what I say, gotta go
Honestly, I'm tryna get out my cubicle
Hopefully these words don't get under your skin
Like cuticles, I don't carry hammers
So I had to nail these verses
I just had to put the work in
I got a chip on my shoulder
Big as Mount Everest
I ain't make it yet, so no time for restin
365, 24-seven
I ain't stoppin
Till I live like the Jefferson's
Money stack tall, I'm in the sky with the Jetsons
Life keep testin, tryna teach me a lesson
Tryna teach me a lesson
Tryna teach me a lesson
I'm on another level, pen glidin
I need some more treble
On the high end spectrum
The thoughts that I wrestle
It's too raw for TV
This rappin' thing easy-peasy
You niggas strugglin
While I'm goin' up
You niggas tumblin
Your money does an Irish goodbye
It's never doublin
I see you sufferin
While I'm gettin' better
Gettin' more clever
How to fuse these words
These rhymes are herbs
Listen closely if you have concerns
You niggas female-driven
That's why you keep hittin' curbs
Your will is shaky, I can feel it
Your palms are sweaty
Your knees are weakened
Your words you speakin
Don't hold any weight
Impatient policeman
Watch your hands
Don't be doin' no reachin
Or the preacher be preachin
How you biting for clout
When you not even teething
Let's figure that out
Hope you give me a reason
I got a chip on my shoulder
Big as my Mount Everest
I ain't make it yet
So no time for restin
365, 24-seven
I ain't stoppin
Till I live like the Jefferson's
Money stack tall
I'm in the sky with the Jetsons
Life keep testin
Tryna teach me a lesson
Tryna teach me a lesson
Tryna teach me a lesson
We out
