This ain't overnight
Ain't no Cinderella
This that incremental
Steady getting better
Had to rise and shine
Had to go get mine
Clock is steady ticking
Can't wait another minute
This ain't overnight
Ain't no Cinderella
This that incremental
Steady getting better
Had to rise and shine
Had to go get mine
Clock is steady ticking
Can't wait another minute
Whenever I'm present, you silent
Whatever you selling, not buying
Young Chef Boyarde not with the samples
What you be scheming, don't try it
I be doing this all in the name of God
Missed a few shots, the aim was off
Down in the valley, I look to the rod
Feeling so even that I beat the odds
Having to overcome it all
Statistics? They lied
Results they thought they'd manifest? They tried
See, daddy was never around
I've been the man of the house
I had to make some major moves, making my mama proud
They just want all of the glory, they just want all of the clout
I just be rocking the smiles, they just be rocking the frowns
Going up, never going down
Call the huddle up, we be down to clown
Talking to God on my knees, doing just as He please
This ain't overnight
Ain't no Cinderella
This that incremental
Steady getting better
Had to rise and shine
Had to go get mine
Clock is steady ticking
Can't wait another minute
This ain't overnight
Ain't no Cinderella
This that incremental
Steady getting better
Had to rise and shine
Had to go get mine
Clock is steady ticking
Can't wait another minute
