Promise

[Intro: Conway the Machine]

Yeah, uh-huh

Look, uh

[Verse 1: Conway the Machine]

I put the work into bein' position

I can look in your eyes and see the resentment (See the resentment)

I be tryna stay away from these niggas, reason I'm distant

You can wear rings with these niggas, they speakin' on you like Pippen (That's fucked up, homie)

But honestly, this shit never offended me (Not at all)

'Cause I can't let people fuck up my energy (Uh-uh)

Conway and Skeese, can't nobody fuck with the chemistry (What up?)

This team I build is a dynasty, we on winnin' streak (DrumWork, bitch)

Did a show in Amsterdam and the fans was baffled (Woo)

Shit was so crazy, London was next, but they banned my travels (Ha)

I ain't usin' my hands, I don't plan to grab you (Uh-huh)

I could just get my lil' man to clap you (On God)

Gangster 'til they slam the gavel

Fuck the judge, the D.E.A., and what have you (Talk to 'em)

Shit, give me that hundred years if you feel you have to (I'ma eat that)

I'm just as solid as they come

Switches everywhere, my lil' homies got 'em on they gun (Brr)

My saga begun, to be the best rapper known in this era

That you aware of, the fact won't get any clearer

2023 Maybach black and gold like Camerra (Vroom)

Uh, and the greatest story that was told, you can hear her, Machine (Ooh)

[Chorus: Jae Skeese & Conway the Machine]

I ain't scared of no loss

Kept my drive when my homies dozed off (Ha)

Heart of gold underneath my Chrome hearts

Made myself a promise, got my old off

Win, lose, or draw, the circumstances never finna throw my zone off

I've been grindin' hard for this paper

I've been grindin' hard, been grindin' hard

I've been grindin' hard for this paper (Yeah)

I've been grindin' hard, just grindin' hard

I've been grindin' hard for this paper (Yeah, look)

[Verse 2: Jae Skeese]

Came in the game, I kicked the doors off the hinges (Uh-huh)

'Cause life had me stuck in a box with that abnormal dimensions

Important decisions, I changed up my trajectory (I changed up)

To turn my singles into centuries

'Cause greatness, that's what I expect from me (What you expect?)

How could I not? Always seein' things I never had before (Facts)

I didn't have a plan before, just knew that I ain't plan to fall

One hundred grand or more, my immediate family's never seen (Never)

So all this rappin' shit was farfetched, they ain't respect this dream

I stopped expectin' them to see from my perspective (Uh-huh)

The lower class, I'd never see myself choosin' like an elective (Never)

In this game of life, you see, we all are contestants

And either way, we all return to the essence

So goin' against the rules that was set for us was always part of my message (That's facts)

I'd rather that than be unfulfilled, stuck on antidepressants

Scared to go for mines on Twitter and Insta' feeds, they quotin' lines

When shit was lookin' grim, I had to put my grind in overdrive

That's word to Weez', now worldwide, these fans is throwin' fours up (Fours up)

At the shows, I'm signin' autographs, I got 'em all struck

I guess now if I hit a fan, that mean she really starstruck (Haha)

I'm trailblazin' my path, I left it charred up, that's word, nigga

[Chorus: Jae Skeese]

I ain't scared of no loss

Kept my drive when my homies dozed off

Heart of gold underneath my Chrome hearts

Made myself a promise, got my old off

Win, lose, or draw, the circumstances never finna throw my zone off

I've been grindin' hard for this paper

I've been grindin' hard, been grindin' hard

I've been grindin' hard for this paper (Yeah)

I've been grindin' hard, just grindin' hard

I've been grindin' hard for this paper
