The Stakeout - Russ

Yeah, yeah

Doors are openin' that were previously locked

Treat this game like any other bitch I just need me the top

Always knew that I’d become what I’m becoming

That one that’s got the movers and shakers all in discussion

(Blat, blat, blat) Peep my percussion, it’s no wonder why the bands about to

come in

I see y’all fightin' but my fans about to jump in

I been calculating, living in this house of patience

Quarantined myself down here, but now I’m breaking out the basement

Ended up at Leo’s house

Being great is a choice

Always working in silence let my success make the noise, I’m on my wave now

Welcome to my stakeout

The type of focus where I don’t count the days, I make the days count

I can’t take the same route

I got this mapped out differently

Where I can get myself I won’t give you a cut to give to me, I’ll give it to

myself

Put my family on my payroll

Conductor of my train, nothing moves unless I say so

I had a talk with my mom

She said, «What if you’re the one you’ve been waitin' for?»

I treat my obstacles like stepping stones and keep climbing and climbing some

more

(Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh)

(Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh)

Yeah, no matter what, I never lose my ambition

I soldier through the bullshit, turn my wounds into wisdom

There’s some new women itchin' for some love and attention

But I’m still scratching the surface of my potential, won’t let them fuck up my

focus

I rarely ever like they advice

'Cause they gon' try and dim my light because I shine in they eyes

I’d rather be hated for what I am than loved for what I’m not

I wanna give my mom the world without worrying 'bout the cost

I’m gonna make it crack, saving rap, y’all should be ashamed of that

I’m not red or blue when I say that I cannot bang with that

Hooks, beats, verses, tell me who the fuck can hang with that

Rappers shootin' out the gate so fast but ain’t maintaining that (yeah)

My goals are more and more tangible

This buzz that I’m building’s becoming more and more flammable

'Bout to blow, oh no you should be up on this already

But in case you’re not I’ll let you catch up while I sip this Henny

I had a talk with my mom

She said, «What if you’re the one you’ve been waitin' for?»

I treat my obstacles like stepping stones and keep climbing and climbing some

more

(Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh)

(Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh)
