Brick by Brick Lyrics by Packy

2018

[Intro]
Yeah, yeah, yeah

[Verse 1]
"We don't want another white rapper"
They don't say it but they think it
They don't listen to my music
Try not to listen to my demons
Said I wouldn't burn bridges
Still, I never crossed over
You could bet I got the torch with me now
And I'm looking for some closure
Never got signed, never got looks
Never got agents, never got booked
No handout but I never got shook
Smoke a little weed but I never got hooked
Don't nobody give me shit
Don't nobody tell me shit, though
Everyone think they got a voice now
Don't nobody sound like this, though
Young Pack, you done fucked up (You done fucked up)
Left home, grew the fuck up (Grew the fuck up)
Thought that I knew what's what
Didn't realize that I still gotta come up
Money don't spend like it used to
No new friends, they'll use you
Everybody wanna be in the studio making hits with me
When I look around, I better know who's who
I am not for the games (No no)
Don't be playing with my name (No no)
Don't be claiming you an artist
We don't see you dropping anything
Every girl a public figure now
Followers, you wanna dick 'em down
They accommodate that shit too
Ooh, they really makin' daddy proud

[Chorus]
Ain't no flash in the pan, ain't no temporary shit
Nothing happened overnight, built it brick by brick
My fans really fuck with me, my girl fell in love with me
My boys really down for me, now they really gon' be up
Ain't no flash in the pan, ain't no temporary shit
Nothing happened overnight, built it brick by brick
My fans really fuck with me, my girl fell in love with me
My boys really down for me, now they really gon' be up

[Verse 2]
I've seen people come and go, this game unforgiving
I've been selfish with it, people want it, they don't fucking get it
I'm the godfather 'round here, who the fuck y'all kidding?
LOL to any rapper talking résumé in the city
Y'all gotta pivot, you should do standup, y'all would kill it
You could really use a new beginning
Buy the ticket but you never win it
Every year, you really get the feeling
Every year, I hit the goal and never hit the ceiling
When I retire, I'm 'bout to write a book and call it "Sticking to the Mission"
Get it how you live it, take it from a kid who's living out the vision, yeah yeah
Put a office in the neighborhood I grew up, tell me I ain't manifest that shit
Had to pinch myself, call that "per-Speck-tive"
I work for my blessings
In the city, I just might be legend, yeah
Everybody want it now
Everybody know the what, never know the how
Never know the half, always on deck
Never go to bed, can't waste time
No, no, never that
No, no, never that
Brick by brick, let it stack

[Chorus]
Ain't no flash in the pan, ain't no temporary shit
Nothing happened overnight, built it brick by brick
My fans really fuck with me, my girl fell in love with me
My boys really down for me, now they really gon' be up
Ain't no flash in the pan, ain't no temporary shit
Nothing happened overnight, built it brick by brick
My fans really fuck with me, my girl fell in love with me
My boys really down for me, now they really gon' be up

[Outro]
Now they really gon' be up
Now they really gon' be up
Now they really gon' be up
