People used to have doubts
They thought I'd tap out (they thought)
Life was gettin' hard
But I'd never back down (nah)
Cuz I'm made for it (yeah)
I'm made for it (yeah)
I'm made for it
I'm made for it (I'm made for it)
Even with the cash now
I know my background (Black)
Queens is where I'm from
So I rock my black crown
Cuz I'm made for it (yeah)
I'm made for it (yeah)
I'm made for it
I'm made for it (I'm made for it)
Come from a line where my people are gritty
I'm from New York and was raised in the city
Stay on my grind, I'm not lookin for pity
Now I'm on top and I run the committee
When at the top all I'm hearing is "gimme"
Stars all around me, they think that I'm dizzy
People get mad when I tell 'em I'm busy
Begging for smoke, I can find 'em a chimney
I gotta focus and set an example
Am I doing something that is substantial
Bible open and I'm lighting a candle
Lord God gimme what I can handle
Lord God I'm not tryna get cancelled
Played it safe, now I'm taking a gamble
Different way, like I'm taking some ankles
Got the cross, now I'm looking for answers
Eyes closed and I'm looking for purpose
Palms kissed, I could feel I was nervous
Kneel down just to pray at the service
Open ears, God saying keep working
On my grind so I'm staying determined
Wide eyes, now I'm reading my verses
Saw the sign that my life would be worth it
One more time just in case you ain't heard it
(I was made for it)
