Songtext Needs Kota The Friend

Needs

I done been so many places (I been all around the world)
I done seen a lot of faces (Yeah, I probably met your girl)
I always love when they green (Always love when they green)
If you know what I mean (Yeah, you know what I mean)
I see the struggle, I embrace it (Comin', comin', comin', yeah)
I wasn't going on vacation (What the fuck is a vacation?)
I was gettin' my dreams (I was gettin' my dreams)
Like why you hatin' on me? (Why you hatin' on me?)
Yeah
Y'all was takin' trips and, uh
Coppin' brand new whips and shit
I was stackin' bread and, yeah
Spent it on equipment, yeah
Y'all was throwin' money, yeah
I was cheap as fuck
Yeah, my car was bummy, but
Lately, I've been up
Always screamin' independent 'cause y'all do not get it
I compete with label artists, look at my percentage
Stay a hundred 'cause you are what you eat
And where I'm from, you only eat what you kill (I've kept it real)

I got this shit 'cause I deserve it (I got this shit 'cause I deserve it)
I'm on a mountain, picture perfect (I'm on a mountain, picture perfect)
I'm out here meetin' my needs (I'm out here meetin' my needs)
I got the world at my feet (I got the world at my feet)
I'm only eatin' 'cause I earned it (I'm only eatin' 'cause I earned it)
I know you see the table turnin' (I know you see the table turnin')
I got a crib by the beach (I got a crib by the beach)
I got the world at my feet (I got the world at my feet)
Yeah, yeah, yeah

Pull up in my hood, yeah
All my people wave, yeah (Ayy, what's good?)
They just show me love, ayy
Call me by my name (Yo, Ave')
They know where I'm from, uh
And how far I came, yeah
They ain't see the work, nah
They just saw the fame
Uh, make sure you talkin' that money when you callin' my phone
Oh, you ain't fuckin' with me, I do it all on my own
Never bitter, but I'm stating the facts
I was lost, but I found my way back
My cousin spent a week in Bali
And I was lookin' at him sideways
Like why you ain't go with me?
He turned directly to me
He told me, "You is on your own shit" (You was doin' your own shit, bro)
I thought about it, I'm like, "Oh, shit"
I was up to my knees, I wasn't pickin' up phones
And I was deep in my work, and now I finally see

I got this shit 'cause I deserve it (I got this shit 'cause I deserve it)
I'm on a mountain, picture perfect (I'm on a mountain, picture perfect)
I'm out here meetin' my needs (I'm out here meetin' my needs)
I got the world at my feet (I got the world at my feet)
I'm only eatin' 'cause I earned it (I'm only eatin' 'cause I earned it)
I know you see the table turnin' (I know you see the table turnin')
I got a crib by the beach (I got a crib by the beach)
I got the world at my feet (I got the world at my feet)
Yeah

2019, same kicks, and the same whip
New crib, but the truth is I'm on the same shit
Tall shoes like a horseshoe, that's the basics
Subaru, I don't even know what a Wraith is
I told my woman I'm a new man
Give myself what I been lacking
Now you can love me for free
Be who you wanna be
Grateful I've been given true friends
I don't keep my feelings packed in
You finna love me for me
So if I feel it, I speak

I got this shit 'cause I deserve it
I got this shit 'cause I deserve it
I got this shit 'cause I deserve it
I got this shit 'cause I deserve it
She love me 'cause I'm worth it, I'm livin' picture perfect
