lyrics
[Verse 1]
Bring it back now, vicious like an animal
I been livin like I don’t care anymore
Chug it down, I’ma feel it in the morning
I’ma save up til I own it, I’ma write until I’m on the board
Hey, where’d ya think that I was goin?
Didn’t know that you were all-knowin
Situations of no-wins, PCH coastin
Wave my hand out of the window feel the cold wind
And I got them thinking that I'm under it
Like I can't pass the bar, I can't cross examine it
Surprise them and make jaws drop just like Jaws did
Maladjusted, ringing like Drake I'm just joshing
Ooooooh, tell me it's my time now
I can't believe until I see it with my eyes now
I'm building up my own clout, blow away the dark clouds
Thinking that there's no better time than right now
[Chorus]
Break me, I'ma get back up and take it
Hoping my feet don’t betray me
Kuya been teaching me everything I know
Feel me, it don’t take much to reveal me
Got my eyes up to the ceiling
I'ma take you with me everywhere I go
[Verse 2]
Oooh, I got to tell em that I got a sinking feelin everything is gonna turn out alright
Gotta make sure they know I’m relishing the spotlight
I wanna go, I wanna go, I wanna go all night, ay
Hit the streets, stepping up like a chromatic
Getting furious like a chrome addict, if you wanna go at it
Then you know where I’m at, and if you think that I don’t matter
Better straighten out your facts
I’m not another grain of sand falling in an hourglass
Put me on the clock tick and tick and tick and tock fast
But I’m never putting on a mask, do the math, I’ll show you proof
If you’re up to the task, I’ma show you how to move
No more anonymous
Switch it up so it don’t sound monotonous
You can’t keep up with the changes, I gotta say
If you ain’t going my speed, get out of the fast lane
[Chorus]
Break me, I'ma get back up and take it
Hoping my feet don’t betray me
Kuya been teaching me everything I know
Feel me, it don’t take much to reveal me
Got my eyes up to the ceiling
I'ma take you with me everywhere I go
[Verse 3]
Now I’ve been saving up a little, got some money in my pocket
Gotta move, gotta dance, gotta blast, gotta rocket
I'm a beast, boy, titan, king, Visayan
Got a lotta fam so I’m gonna keep on fightin
Can’t you tell I’m Filipino by my last name?
I’ve been using that tilde since 10th grade
Now I'ma do it for Sevilla, this is the beginnin'
Yeah, my name’s Marzoña, don’t forget the ñ
