[Verse 1]
Been tryna be a good man
Honest to the bone
That’s me
Keep it quiet when I do right
Still get low on my knees
Name in the book
That’s all I want
More than a chain that freeze
Had to learn grace in the grime
Hands up
Face in the breeze
I done walked through the wrong crowds
Still kept truth on me
Turned that pain into patience
Kept my soul on E
Lookin’ up like “Can You see me?”
Yeah
You been watchin’ me
Every time that I fell short
You still followed my feet
[Chorus]
I been faithful
I been low
Now it’s time for me to blow
I been grindin’
You been knowin’
Now it’s time for me to blow
From the dirt to the glow
You the reason that I grow
Kept it real
Kept it G
Now it’s time for me to blow (yeah, yeah)
[Verse 2]
I don’t brag ‘bout what I did
I just talk ‘bout who I’m tryna be
Treat my people like they diamonds
Even when they cuttin’ into me
Thank God daily
That’s habit
Whisper prayers over family
If I ever touch that mansion
I need peace more than vanity
All things considered
I’m blessed
Even when I feel broke inside
I got hope in my chest
And a map I don’t gotta hide
If He open that door
I’m steppin’
Ready when my name get called
‘Cause I stayed ten toes
No flexin’
Now it’s time to take it all
[Chorus]
I been faithful
I been low
Now it’s time for me to blow
I been grindin’
You been knowin’
Now it’s time for me to blow
From the dirt to the glow
You the reason that I grow
Kept it real
Kept it G
Now it’s time for me to blow (time to blow)
[Bridge]
If I rise
I’ma rise with my hands up (hands up)
If I shine
I’ma shine ‘cause You stand up (stand up)
If I win
I’ma win for the fam
Yeah
Can’t forget who lit the candle when it’s famished
[Chorus]
I been faithful
I been low
Now it’s time for me to blow
I been grindin’
You been knowin’
Now it’s time for me to blow
From the dirt to the glow
You the reason that I grow
Kept it real
Kept it G
Now it’s time for me to blow (yeah)
Now it’s time for me to blow
