Never Sell by TT17 Lyrics
[Verse]
I will never, ever sell myself short of what I am
I used to be a boy, now she callin' me her man
She asked for a band, Ima do what I can
I saw her as a fan, now she callin' me her man
They don't see my vision, black shirts for the brand
Light skin on the face, down below lookin' tan
She heard '7 Years' , and she looked at me like "Damn
These girls don't deserve you, but deservin' I am
Deservin' of your face, and deservin' of your love"
Shе used to be a number, now shе buildin' up my trust
Ima take her out to lunch, but never out to brunch
Ima leave her after one day, cuz I am one of one
One of one, 3 pointer, I'm feelin' like I'm Shaq
Valentina hit me up, and she askin' for a rack
I never will forget what you sent a month back
4K filmed video, he's blowin' out your back
I just think it's funny, these girls runnin' back
C.B.H. , I told you, now I'm leadin' up the pack
No smoke, no red eyes, I am never on the crack
Just crackin' up this vision, while you crackin' up a snack
Just crackin' up a snack, while I'm lookin' over here
I really manifested, 2021's my year
And next year is gonna be a little shorter, but the same
I wanna be dead before my name goes to flames
Some days I looked ahead, and I saw nothin' at all
Just sat by my phone, I was waitin' for the call
$2k on my neck, Gucci, Prada, at the mall
My 16th birthday, I was born, 'Risk or Fall'
And then came an EP, 3 of those, a three peat
And then my first album, got 'Long Way' on that repeat
Then, dropped a good song with a moon on the cover
And then, she said she loved me, but I never said I loved her
I didn't say I loved her, and she told me I'm so typical
Sorry that I'm focused, and I won't ever get sexual
My love is on the mic, and my love is in the booth
Shoutout Mike Lazano, we next up, that's the truth
Recordin' this in Long Beach, but I'm heard worldwide
Call me "Mini Pitbull" , but I'm never gonna bite
Girls in the DM's always say they wanna ride
But I don't let 'em ride, I'm focused on my sights
I'm focused on my sights, cuz I know that Ima make it
I love the way I'm doin' it, one day Ima be famous
Fame? I'm boutta get it, check it off my check list
Off the clock? I'm ruthless, boy, you askin' for a death wish
I'm next if they know, they know I'm underrated
Every single song, I think that's more than stated
2019, I used to be 'Most Hated'
Now they all love me, but I'm still the 'Most Hated'
Mom told me "Go to college, and you'll get a degree!"
But I wanna try music, I think it's better for me!
I'm just there 'till I'm done, done payin' my dues
I'm underground now, I am payin' my dues
Gettin' money for my songs, gettin' paid about a quarter
But, I'm still dunkin' songs, you can call me Michael Porter
Or maybe call me King James, the way I slam it down
This got a nice flow, should I turn it back around?
Or keep goin' ? Keep goin' ? The speakers up and goin'
Last year, was 'boutta quit, 'till God told me "Keep going!"
Maybe that's my motivation, I'm sick of being so damn patient
I wanna buy a house, and look at mom, and scream at her "I made it!"
The day I make it big is the day I'm gonna cry
Thank God I beat my demons and that I am still alive
Thank God for my family, together, we 'gon ride
Up until the day I die, ride until the day I die! (day I die)
I will never, ever sell myself short of what I am
I used to be a boy, now she callin' me her man
She asked for a band, Ima do what I can
I saw her as a fan, now she callin' me her man
They don't see my vision, black shirts for the brand
Light skin on the face, down below lookin' tan
