lyrics

I'm verified cuz I’m dope
Got that check mark I'm a pro
Cuz I lift em up and give em hope
And now I'm bout to drop another post
About about how I'm
Verified cuz I'm dope
This is for my people in the front row
This is for the new ones who didn't know
I'm not just verified cuz I'm dope
Let me tell you how

I used to be struggling broke
Now I'm sitting on a pot of gold
And I know you heard that before
But the story really must be told
I've been hungry I've been stuck out in the cold
On tour broke down on the wrong road
Couldn't believe I made it when I got home
Got nothing to lose so I press record
Cuz when you independent trying to grow
You need a whole team showing you which way to go
For a while I was trying to take it slow
But this time it's about to blow
I'm from the small town in the woods
Don't meant that I don't got the flow
Challenging the status quo
Cali to Brooklyn touring the U.S. shows I booked them
To big for the small town I grew up in
Big fish in a small pond they hooked him
The chosen one they found him
Going hard regardless of the outcome
Hustling jobs to fund the next album
Now that he's verified everyone surround him

I'm verified cuz I’m dope
Got that check mark I'm a pro
Cuz I lift em up and give em hope
And now I'm bout to drop another post
About about how I'm
Verified cuz I'm dope
This is for my people in the front row
This is for the new ones who didn't know
I'm not just verified cuz I'm dope
