Stairs Lyrics by Futuristic

Ikigai

2024

[Intro]
We never had time for no losing
We've been winning forever
No time for losers
We take the stairs
To take the elevator if you want
No time, no time
No time, no time

[Chorus]
Ah
I ain't got no time for losers
Mmm
I don't care 'bout what you doin' over there
It's either
Past you or it's due you
No elevator
Always knew that I would have to take the stairs

[Verse 1]
Watch out
Put the headphones on, what they talm 'bout?
Generational curses chopped out
Lock in with my girl, I don't walk out
This what it mean to be a boss now
I'm saying "No" and I'm laying low
I'm making choices, not taking boats
I'm peeping actions, I'm taking notes
Look, I don't want it if it's not authentic
Real love is never bought, it's given
In my life, I keep the windows tinted
If I said it, then you know I meant it
Only thing passive about me is the income
From the assets that I got rented
It's the addresses that got tenants
I mind my business, get out my business, look
Ah

[Chorus]
I ain't got no time for losers
Mmm
I don't care 'bout what you doin' over there
It's either
Past you or it's due you
No elevator
Always knew that I would have to take the stairs

[Post-Chorus]
Level up, level up
Level up, stairs
Level up, level up
Level up, stairs
Level up, level up
Level up, stairs
No elevator
Always knew that I would have to take the stairs

[Verse 2]
Only step of the journey
I widened my path
Had to relax, I wasn't present
My name was preceding the way that I act
I put the cash up on a pedestal
Then I was spinnin' it just for a laugh
Then I remembered the vision I had
I did division on things that I grabbed
Doubled and tripled my time and my energy
Kicked all the finicky friends off the track
Literally, I saw the tendencies
How all my brothers turned enemies behind my back
Mama was mad that I didn't get [?] ([?])
Wish I could keep all the fam at the pad (Pad)
Everyone jumping the fence for her
Look at the crib and forgetting to water their grass
Look at the cracks on the way up (Way up)
You put too much weight on the lift and you bound to get stuck
Focus on everyone 'stead of yourself ('Self)
Promise you bound to get found in a rut
I did it all but ain't ever give up (Up)
I saw the future, I knew it was us (Us)
Stayed at the crib while you at the club (Club)
Stayed in the booth while you gettin' drunk
Dug up the root, tell me what the problem is (Huh?)
Laid their clothes on the counter, they counterfeit (Okay)
If I speak it, I know that I'm bound to it ([?])
If I work for it, know that I founded it
If it's love, then that's what I'm surrounded with ([?])
If it's hate, I won't ever respond to it (I won't)
If it's stairs, you know that I'm climbin' 'em
Then I'm gone, never to be found again

[Chorus]
Ah
I ain't got no time for losers
Mmm
I don't care 'bout what you doin' over there
It's either
Past you or it's due you
No elevator
Always knew that I would have to take the stairs

[Post-Chorus]
Level up, level up
Level up, stairs
Level up, level up
Level up, stairs
Level up, level up
Level up, stairs
No elevator
Always knew that I would have to take the stairs

[Outro]
I ain't got no time for losers
Mmm
I don't care 'bout what you doin' over there
It's either
Past you or it's due you
No elevator
Always knew that I would have to take the stairs
