Emtee
Couldn’t
[Pre-Chorus: Emtee]
I've been praying everyday
Lord please make a way
Man I been through the pain
Now the people know my name

[Hook: Emtee]
I did it when they said I couldn't
Got it when they said I wouldn't
Why would they say that I shouldn't?
Look at the work that I put in

I did it when they said I couldn't
Got it when they said I wouldn't
Why would they say that I shouldn't?
Look at the work that I put in

[Verse 1: A-Reece]
Some of y'all rapping like y'all still got something to prove
I got over that so you know
I don't like rappers who say they got next
When they've been in the game for 10 years or so
Impressed by the fact that you fake n***as famous
You keep finding ways with them favours
Frankly, I'm far from complaining
The faster you make it, the quicker you fall
N***a face it, I'm finally buzzing
I was 15 rapping like I was 20 or something
By 2014 I had all of your favourites frustrated
Confused and afraid of the youngin'
So allow me to formally reintroduce myself
Man I done changed, A-Reece the name
I'm getting bigger and better than how you thought I would remain
A whole other lane, with the same ass pace
I'm patient, no mistakes are made
I pray my haters age up to a 100
Just so they can witness me fuck up the game
Rearrange it again, again and again
[Pre-Chorus: Emtee]
I've been praying everyday
Lord please make a way
Man I been through the pain
Now the people know my name

[Hook: Emtee]
I did it when they said I couldn't
Got it when they said I wouldn't
Why would they say that I shouldn't?
Look at the work that I put in
I did it when they said I couldn't

Got it when they said I wouldn't
Why would they say that I shouldn't?
Look at the work that I put in

[Verse 2: A-Reece]
This shit right here make Somizi go straight
This shit right here makes tomorrow today
Fuck up your plans, make your album delay
What more can I say?
Ambitiouz done scooped a n***a at his lowest
Fam everybody sleeping, finally woke up
Fam man this time I really need to focus
I'm tryna be considered as the G.O.A.T
Speak under oath like I already knew I'm the shit
For real, you got to admit I'm cold as a geys'
I'm colder than June 25th
For real, I just got a deal
Why you acting like that ain't such a big deal?
Let's be honest, I'm a problem in this game
You rappers ain't the same, you changed the way you rap
Your beat selection is in fact inspired by the boy
Congratulations, you're employed
I ain't depending on nobody here but myself
And if I put an album out I swear
It's gon' be everywhere but the shelf
[Pre-Chorus: Emtee]
I've been praying everyday
Lord please make a way
Man I been through the pain
Now the people know my name

[Hook: Emtee]
I did it when they said I couldn't
Got it when they said I wouldn't
Why would they say that I shouldn't?
Look at the work that I put in

I did it when they said I couldn't
Got it when they said I wouldn't
Why would they say that I shouldn't?
Look at the work that I put in

[Verse 3: A-Reece]
I guess when you broke you get bitter
Start throwing shade at the winners
But how can you blame me?
I've been eating peanut butter and jelly for dinner
I guess, I'm here just tryna get rich and then
Move outta my mama crib
I mean, I'm getting older and not any younger like Benjamin Button, you dig?
I guess people are quick to forget
They love you, they hate you and love you again, I know
And some of you n***as who get on your knees and pray that I never excel I guess you gon need a whole other prayer
Cause yes, I'm winning I'm doing so well
I just check out my mail and man it's a movie
We moving, I wish I could share, oh yeah
I done went silent and gave y'all a year to prepare
Sit back and just look at me run some shit
Don't worry cause down at the bottom I tell you there's plenty of company
[Pre-Chorus: Emtee]
I've been praying everyday
Lord please make a way
Man I been through the pain
Now the people know my name

[Hook: Emtee]
I did it when they said I couldn't
Got it when they said I wouldn't
Why would they say that I shouldn't?
Look at the work that I put in

I did it when they said I couldn't
Got it when they said I wouldn't
Why would they say that I shouldn't?
