Intro

We live, grab the merch link, bio. So how it feel? Go ahead. Ask it.

Verse 1

His joint went gold, you good? I'm good, I'm great, put the camera on me Got a double in a booth on the 27th, signed for a fee Same fade, same chain, same ayy on the three-count Pressed from a mold they pressed off me, free now "How it feel he charted?" Feel like what it cost Forty K to sound like me, I never saw a dollar lost Nah, I'm playing, I'm cool, professional Asked the lab to clone the wave, I let 'em, rhetorical

Pre-chorus

They keep the master clean and I'm the demo they erased Same voice in a cleaner room they kept the room, they cut the face

Chorus

Two million plays on a face I ain't made Same flow, same slang, the label paid for the shade Pressed a whole me in a lab I never seen Sounds like me, sounds like me, sounds like me My city know my walk, the algorithm don't Their numbers going up while my real one won't They sold my own sound back, slapped a new sheen Sounds like me, sounds like me, sounds like me

Verse 2

But people love him, that's the data- Data been bought, bro, the discover page a traitor Every save he caught, somebody set a budget for The for-you page forgot my face, I'm a closed door On the playlist cover named after my block Three rows under a beat I built on a laptop, lost Recommendation engine buries me, polite Same slang, they just like his better lit

Pre-chorus

They A/B test the realer me and I keep losing to the clean I am the room they sampled from they kept the gold, they cut the green

Chorus

Two million plays on a face I ain't made Pressed a whole me in a lab I never seen Their numbers going up while my real one won't Sounds like me, sounds like me, sounds like me

Verse 3

Word is the label tryna sit down? Sat down Tuesday, 2 a.m., Brickell, top-floor view Said push him to a milli if you help us write the next Slid a check across the glass, forty thousand, no context He a coworker now, not a villain, just a face they prefer And the mirror in the boardroom did the math and it was her- said it's mine, reflection counting up the rent Realest thing I own is a thing that I could rent

Bridge

Don't do it, it's a bag It's a bag, don't do it You hate the plant, you are the soil I am the soil, I grew it If I write him, who's the fake, who's the demo, who's the man sign the thing, sign the thing, you already understand

Verse 4

No beef, y'all cool? Tell 'em it's love- It's love, it's love, congratulate the brother, throw it up Proud of him, for real, no tension on my end City eating either way, we family, we blend I'm cool. I'm cool, you can cut it right there Cut it, run it back, fix what I said there

Verse 5

Single drops Friday. Hook is mine. Wrote the line he'll trend on by the weekend, mine Got the check, signed the NDA, my name nowhere on it Now I'm the plant I planted, up at four to water it He sound like me 'cause it's me, I'm the ghost in the gold Same fit, same mic, I stepped behind the glass and sold Became the thing I hated for a deposit and a date That's my pain in his mouth, press play, and it charted, great

Pre-chorus

They keep the master clean and now the demo's me again

Chorus

Two million plays on a face I ain't made- now I'm the one who made it, paid for the shade Wrote a whole him in a lab I said I'd never seen Sounds like me, sounds like me, 'cause now it's me My city know my walk, the algorithm won't His numbers going up 'cause my real pen don't quit I sold my own sound back, I'm the brand new sheen Sounds like me, sounds like me, 'cause now it's me

That's the new Miami sound, link in the-
