Altitude (Scared of Heights) - ANoyd

Close your eyes and envision my scared of heights through a transplant

See lows and take you high

Higher take you lower back then permanent like a tramp stamp

Kept a positive mind with a negative bank account

Kept a smile on my face while my city just sit and pout

Kept giving out hugs while y’all give out guns

Fired from my job for being a couple minutes late

I wasn’t tryna' live a simple life anyways (BRGNDI)

Really, so I called mom dukes, told her this shit ain’t important

I can rap full time with unemployment

Couple of weeks later denied me the unemployment

Empty pockets got me way more focused than disappointed

Rather die enormous than live dormant

That’s how we on it

'Cause I’m always coming up with some shit like my toilet clogging

And the places I applied each one of them I denied

Tryna' offer me a job, same day I got a performance, nah

Lady, I gotta rap tonight miss

You makin' minimum wage and I’m making sacrifices

So I ran into a surgeon at the grocery store

Dr. Dre’s blasting, playing some Illmatic

He tapped me right on my shoulder

Asked me If I’m enrolled in a college

Told him, «That shit ain’t for me to be honest»

«I don’t sit in class, I got a question I put my hands up

I’m on stage telling these people to put they hands up»

He laughed a little then told me, «We built to learn in school»

I told him, «You save lives right?

Well maybe one of my songs is saving a child’s life for certain too

So technically I’m a surgeon too»

Yeah, everybody seen doubt

Now I got the crowd jumping like a trampoline house

They don’t want a black brother to eat, I’m used to it

'Cause they always tryna' take the black jelly beans out, nigga

Yeah, I’m dreaming to make a profit

And God always sketching a special way to surprise it

Reflecting on my life in this broken rear-view mirror

'Cause I crashed my fucking car cause I was texting and driving

That’s no job, no car, fuck it man I surrender

I close my eyes, next thing we know we up in November

«Liquor Stains» all on the radio I remember

Then I get that phone call like you open for Bryson Tiller

Then I get the bad news, few hours before I rap

I froze because they canceled all of the opening acts

My city like, «Bro, they can’t take your crown»

Man, you good bro, just don’t look down

I’m just finding my altitude, nigga

I’m just finding my altitude, yeah

They told me, «Don't look down»

You moving on up, nigga

Don’t look down

You moving on up

But nigga I’m scared of heights, yeah

But nigga I’m scared of heights

They told me, «Don't look down»

You moving on up nigga

Don’t look down (Yeah)

You moving on up

But nigga I’m scared of heights

Valentine’s Day Js I’m putting my heart and soul

I remember when I wrote a song a month

Now management got my pen game moving out of control

Now who’s the best MCs?

Kendrick, ANoyd or Cole?

Unfold

I’m rapping circles around my idols for courtesy

Ain’t no saving them like they bleeding internally

Drinking a couple of Mercury

Missing your anniversary

Ain’t no using me so I took both the u’s out of Burgundi

Purposely I can’t wait to get on your top five

These youngings all in my DMs asking me for advice

And I’m still tryna' get Kendrick Lamar to reply to mine

Finding my altitude as soon as the core respond, ah

Me, Breed and Nitty got it surrounded

Working for myself 131 days and counting

Ain’t no days off, nigga we in the struggle

Nobody yelling out, 'Break,' this ain’t a huddle

And you always gotta pray and know that God is above you

Mom walk in the house, see me writing

I love you, I love you

No such thing as too many, «love you’s»

King James couldn’t keep up with the triple double

She work, I ain’t gonna pay you back for 23 years straight

She said «I need that Al Pacino staircase»

Yeah she want a water fountain in the crib

I built it myself for the strongest woman that ever lived

I risk my nine to five cause I’m striving for a mill

I look her in the eyes and she can know I’m for real

Knowing all my songs word for word, yeah it’s all real

Said the last thing I gotta worry about is a dollar bill

Praying I can sell out the Garden and fucking kill it

And FaceTime her right on stage, momma I did it

I got my head up momma but I’m still kinda scared

Look down show 'em cocky and fear

I’m no longer scared of heights, nigga

I’m no longer scared of heights, momma

You told me, «Don't look down»

I’m looking on up momma

Don’t look down

I’m looking on up

I’m no longer scared of heights

I’m no longer scared of heights

I’m no longer scared of heights

I’m no longer scared of heights

I found my altitude
