Believe Me(Album version)

Lyrics

[Intro - deep 808 bass line pulsing, crisp double-tap snares, turntable scratch intro, low male ad-libs]
Yeah… can’t hold me… one finger up… let’s go

[Verse 1 - smooth R&B croon over rolling drill 808s, subtle vinyl crackle, laid-back confident delivery]
Wake up, mirror talk, tell myself I’m that one
Sun on my skin, got the whole world in my palms
Heart full of love, every flaw is a crown
Ain’t chasing approval, I’m already profound
Love what I see, love the ground that I walk
Love every scar, every laugh, every talk
They switch up the script, put my name in the dirt
I lift one middle finger, let the whole block hear the work

[Pre-Chorus - tension build, filtered vocals, rising bass, turntable spin-back tease]
They gon’ talk, they gon’ plot, that’s the game they play
I just nod, keep it calm, then I walk away
Middle finger high, middle finger proud
Ain’t no chain on my soul, watch me move through the crowd

[Chorus - explosive drill-R&B fusion, heavy sidechained bass, layered harmonies, double-tap snares snapping]
I can do anything, everything that I dream
You can’t hold me down, I’m the king of my scene
Love myself, love the air that I breathe
Middle finger up, watch the whole world agree
I can do anything, everything that I want
Turn the volume up, let the bass line taunt
Love my flaws, love the light, love the dark
One finger in the sky, that’s my daily art

[Verse 2 - beat switches to faster tempo, hi-hats double-time, aggressive 808s, slightly pitched vocals]
Now the tempo up, watch the pavement shake
Turntables cutting, got the whole room awake
They flip the script daily, throw dirt on the name
I just smile, blow a kiss, keep dancing through the flame
I’m the architect, blueprint written in gold
Every “no” is a lesson, every loss I control
Love the skin I’m in, love the voice in my chest
Middle finger still raised while I’m chasing the rest

[Chorus - massive bass, distorted harmonies, full energy, turntable scratches between lines]
I can do anything, everything that I dream
You can’t hold me down, I’m the king of my scene
Love myself, love the air that I breathe
Middle finger up, watch the whole world agree
I can do anything, everything that I want
Turn the volume up, let the bass line taunt
Love my flaws, love the light, love the dark
One finger in the sky, that’s my daily art

[Bridge - stripped to piano and soft 808 pulse, intimate vocal, almost spoken-word]
They can’t write my story, only I hold the pen
Every chapter I love, every line I defend
When the world gets loud, I just tune in to me
Middle finger still raised, living wild and free

[Outro - beat slows back to original tempo, fading bass, reverb-drenched ad-libs, final scratch]
Can’t hold me… one finger… love everything… yeah
