Yeah, uh
They thought I wouldn't make it
Now they watchin' how I play it
(Stick shift)
Started from the dirt, now I'm risin' up
Haters in my face but I'm sizin' up
Every single doubt that they threw my way
Now I'm countin' wins every single day
Used to sleep on floors, now I'm wide awake
Every move I make, watch the ground shake
They was laughin' then, now they panic when
I pull up to the scene with that grin again
You can't stop what's already in motion
Heart cold like the depths of the ocean
Built different, that's my devotion
Now you see me, now you're chokin'
Stick shift, never slippin' on my grip, kid
Quick wit, always flippin' how I spit this
Big risk, but I'm winnin' every bet, yeah
Thick skin, all your words just ricochet
(Stick shift, stick shift)
They can't handle how I move
(Stick shift, stick shift)
Got nothin' left to prove
Came up from the bottom, no silver spoon
Every setback made me immune
To the hate, to the doubt, to the disrespect
Now I'm somethin' that they can't forget
Quiet storm, but my presence loud
Stand alone, never need a crowd
Self-made with these calloused hands
Now they beggin' just to understand
You can't stop what's already in motion
Heart cold like the depths of the ocean
Built different, that's my devotion
Now you see me, now you're chokin'
Stick shift, never slippin' on my grip, kid
Quick wit, always flippin' how I spit this
Big risk, but I'm winnin' every bet, yeah
Thick skin, all your words just ricochet
(Stick shift, stick shift)
They can't handle how I move
(Stick shift, stick shift)
Got nothin' left to prove
Uh, look
Started with a dollar and a dream, never folded under pressure or the scheme
They was plottin' on my downfall, but I'm still standin' tall like a redwood tree
Every obstacle they threw became a steppin' stone, buildin' up my legacy
Now I'm movin' with precision, every decision calculated, that's my recipe
Cold-blooded with the flow, never let 'em see me sweat or let 'em know
That I struggled through the pain, through the rain, through the strain, but I never let it show
Now I'm cruisin' past the doubters, all the shouters, all the clout-chasers in the rear view
Mirror, mirror on the wall, who's the realest of them all? They already know it's true
(Yeah, yeah)
(Stick shift)
(That's how we move)
They said I'd never make it out alive
But here I am, still here, I survived
Every battle scar just made me strong
Proved 'em wrong, now I'm where I belong
Stick shift, never slippin' on my grip, kid
Quick wit, always flippin' how I spit this
Big risk, but I'm winnin' every bet, yeah
Thick skin, all your words just ricochet
(Stick shift, stick shift)
They can't handle how I move
(Stick shift, stick shift)
Got nothin' left to prove
From the ground up, now they know
Stick shift mentality, watch me go
(Yeah, uh)
That's how we do it
