    I got what they waitin' for

    You was never really rootin' for me anyway

    He don't run from nothin', dog
    Get your soldiers, tell 'em that the break is over

    (Yeah)
    My track record so clean
    They couldn't wait to just bash me
    I must be gettin' too flashy
    Y'all shouldn't have let the world gas me (woo)
    It's too late 'cause I'm here to stay
    And these girls know that I'm nasty (mm)
    I sent her back to her boyfriend
    With my handprint on her ass cheek
    City talkin', we takin' notes
    Tell 'em all to keep makin' posts
    Wish he could but he can't get close
    OG so proud of me that he chokin' up while he makin' toasts
    I'm the type that you can't control
    Said I would then I made it so (so)
    I don't clear up rumors (ayy)
    Where's y'all sense of humor? (Ayy)
    I'm done makin' jokes 'cause they got old like baby boomers
    Turn my haters to consumers
    I make vets feel like they juniors (juniors)
    Say your time is comin' soon but just like Oklahoma (mm)
    Mine is comin' sooner (mm)
    I'm just a late bloomer (mm)
    I didn't peak in high school, I'm still out here gettin' cuter (woo)
    All these social networks and computers
    Got these pussies walkin' 'round like they ain't losers (losers)

    I told you long ago, on the road
    I got what they waitin' for (I got what they waitin' for)
    I don't run from nothin', dog
    Get your soldiers, tell 'em I ain't layin' low
    (Bitch, I ain't runnin' from no one)
    You was never really rootin' for me anyway (like, ooh-ooh)
    When I'm back up at the top I wanna hear you say (like, ooh-ooh)
    He don't run from nothin', dog
    Get your soldiers, tell 'em that the break is over

    (Yeah)
    I run it up, run it up for the ratchets
    TikTok bitches doin' dances
    Rodeo blastin' in my mansion
    With all this damn fetti, I been feelin' like a (champion)
    I'm the industry baby (yeah)
