Overnight Lyrics by Lute

Gold Mouf (Deluxe)

2021

[Intro]
Yeah
(Turn it up)

[Verse 1]
I'm not tryin' to be no legend, I'm not a rapper
Just good with words, just want my flowers, the ashwagandha
To calm my nerves, I put in hour after hours
Before the deal, back when it was just me, Ry, Jimmy and Will
At the dojo, eighty-nineteen, we tip the scale
I've been livin' in my truth since 2012
I've been spittin' in the booth since I was milly mill'
Yellin', "free my nigga Preston", like Lupe and Chilly Chill
It was C-I double A, cold man's in my gear
I was backstage like I'm just a cashier
If I play my cards right, maybe this my last year
Even though it took five, hail a nigga right here, yеah
I don't take nothin' for granted
You reap what you sow and you plantin'
Somе days I just don't have the answer, but my feet, they solid
They planted 'cause this shit outstanding

[Chorus]
You can't tell me how to feel, this shit my life
I can't tell you this ain't happen overnight
When you ain't got shit to lose, hmm, got to roll the dice
I ain't got nothin' to prove, hmm, this ain't no overnight
You can't tell me how to feel, this shit my life
I can't tell you this ain't happen overnight
When you ain't got shit to lose, hmm, got to roll the dice
I ain't got nothin' to prove, hmm, this ain't no overnight

[Verse 2]
I used to be so naive in the beginning
The first that I got, the more I realize shit different, the pockets you watch
You should be payed on commission
This was my call and my intuition
Had to let go of the time and the hopeful wishin'
Watch my life unfold, like what a feelin'
Some days I be unapologetic
Some days I understand you won't get it
Never take it wrong when I'm distant
I've been workin' on myself for a minute
Hate when people say they want a part of me
But can't accept the me that I give 'em
My daughter gettin' older, so I'm livin'
If I could, I wouldn't do it any different
Money be the goal, not the mission
I hope that when you get older
You understand all the shit that I had sacrificed
Despite how they feel, I did all I could do
Just for you so that you have a better life

[Chorus]
You can't tell me how to feel, this shit my life
I can't tell you this ain't happen overnight
When you ain't got shit to lose, hmm, got to roll the dice
I ain't got nothin' to prove, hmm, this ain't no overnight
You can't tell me how to feel, this shit my life
I can't tell you this ain't happen overnight
When you ain't got shit to lose, hmm, got to roll the dice
I ain't got nothin' to prove, hmm, this ain't no overnight
