Flourish/Respect Lyrics by E.T.

What Happened in 2014?

2018

I been jumping without even thinking enough
When I'm out with my bros I ain’t drinking enough
When I'm out with some hoes never thinking I'm enough
Man this feeling kinda rough

Coz you make me feel like I ain’t
Until you see the pictures that I paint uh!
Être fonctionnaire c'est pas la life for me
Être visionnaire c'est ça la life for me
Would you ride for me?
Would you die for me?
Would you put your pride aside for me?

Next time we'll be chillin' in Ibiza
Avec mes petites sœurs bah ouais avec Trizah

If these ain't your goals then we can't be friends
They finna treat me like I ain't a blessing
Like I ain’t a sweetheart, a gem

Like I ain’t a Christian like Rwandanga
Like Junior nshaka amafaranga
I come from the country yabahanga

These niggas finna treat me
Like I ain't a rock star like Elvis
Tell your boyfriend that it’s all in the pelvis
I look better in real life girl what's a catfish
A nigga don't just blossom a nigga really flourish
Yeah

What's living lavish if that ain’t your money?
What's being bragish if that ain't your honey?

Something about you being taken makes you really wanted
Something about you being vacant makes you really taunted


*beat switch*


Fuck becoming a celebrity
I'm looking for serenity
Nobody can compare to me
First find your own identity

First find out you who you are
None of you are up to par
You tryna be a star
ET was a born on a star
ET just saw who you are
Who you is
Your career's up in a fritz
Why all up in my biz
Ness
Never smoke sess
I keep it real sober
Until it's game over
Diverse like Don Glover yeah!

Do that I mean that I'm childish?
Don't treat me like a side dish or
I'll leave you like it's mileage
Don't try to understand you ain't know where the fuck my mind been

Tryna creep into my mind
Be lost or be found
Tryna creep into my mind
N'y a qu'des kriss kross thass inside

Cold world
No peace sign
Fav artist no cosign

I'm on my own

Where am I findin all these gems?
Where am I findin all this gold?
This thing is not a dream man this thing is but a goal



Probably gonna give second chances more (okay)
Potentially good friends that I kicked thru the door (yeah)
First mistake there will be no second one (uh huh)
I find it kinda hard to trust anyone
But it is what it is
My nigga go figure (tell em!)
Until the day I reach center stage
Till 10 figures (woah!)
I'm broke but your kinda rich don't impress me
Ouuu B who think you vexin'?

Coz your good ain't good enough
Standards way over the top
When I'm thinking bout myself
Only I thing I show respect

The things that I deal with y'all don't even know
When I pull up on the mic nigga show ngo ni - show

Yessir
