Zaddy Ateen - Revel

They wanna see me down, from the ashes where I rose
I do it like a pro, blessings come on the road
They must think I'm a clown, sold the tickets for the show
So it comes, it goes, and so I was chose

Got dammit, I've seen it in your face Tryna get on my level, when I was kicked down
Always thought it was the devil, until I stood up
And I told him it's a battle, I've seen my mama cry
When she sees me I'm a revel, yeah, I'm in it forever

I'll never surrender, I'm just connected to this effort
The boy keep getting better, I'm too good for this
Last night I was drunk, I saw the other night
Being broke is an art, this isn't really nothing, new

I've seen so many die, and they're only on the show
Some record label try to bring me down and tell me things already knew
So I take the contract apart, not lying on the loose
They wanna see me down, from the ashes where I rose

I do it like a pro, blessings come on the row
They must think I'm a clown, sold the tickets for the show
So it comes, it goes, and so I was chose
God dammit, I've seen it in your face Tryna get on my level, when I was kicked down

Always thought it was the devil, until I stood up
And I told him it's a battle, I've seen my mama cry
But I'm a revel, yeah
I stopped going to church, cause my sins were paid

We both got what we need, maybe we should trade
Last time I trusted somebody, I was left for bait
The reason I don't date, I always show up late
I always knew I'm the greatest, I just need the faith

Maybe we'll meet again, maybe this is fate
Once you realize you're being played, you start to play the game
I drink the Henny to piss it, I'm minding my business
I come from the place where we celebrate the winnings

I don't chill with niggas, who go hate when you win
Stay away when you lose, and they close when you winning
I wrote myself a note, just in case so I remember
What I went through, what I been through

As for you, I'm a rapper, I have to sit down
With a pen and a paper, write it down
Cause they wanna see me down, from the ashes where I rose
I do it like a pro, blessings come on the row

They must think I'm a clown, sold the tickets is for the show
So it comes, it goes, and so I was chose , Got damn it
I've seen it in your face, tryna get on my level
When I was kicked down, all I thought it was the devil

Until I stood up, and I told them it's a battle
I've seen my mama cry when she sees me, I'm a revel
I'm a revel, yeah
And I will live forever, yeah

I'm a revel
And I will live forever
