[Intro] Uh-huh Older, wiser, still not the one Let’s be clear [Verse 1] I used to argue every point till the room got tired Now I count to ten, then collect what I’m owed, inspired Got a calendar full, got a heart full too But don’t confuse my peace with permission for you I laugh at my mistakes, put a bow on the bruise Bought myself some patience, cuz now I got something to lose I can sweet-talk a room, I can cut through a lie I got grace in my step and a spark in my eye [Pre-Chorus] I don’t need a crown, I know exactly who I am Keep my name out your teeth if you don’t want a problem, fam [Chorus] Big heart, hard line, don’t cross that gate Talk tough on the phone, then you hesitate Everybody wanna be a thug till it’s time to do thug shift All that bark in the comments, when it’s real, you hush up I’m grown, I’m kind, but I still take it there Say my name sideways, I’ll correct you right there Big heart, strong spine, funny by design Humble got older, but the fire still mine [Verse 2] I bring snacks to the meeting, then dismantle your scheme Make a joke, make a point, make you question your team You can pose for the picture, you can practice your stare But the truth got a doorbell and I’m ringing it there Ain’t bout it-bout it, nah, just doing lots of talking Big boots in the caption, little steps when we’re walking I don’t chase validation, I invoice the doubt Put a period on the sentence, then I’m taking it out [Pre-Chorus] I don’t need a crowd, I can stand on my own But disrespect gets returned with a tone of its own [Chorus] Big heart, hard line, don’t cross that gate Talk tough on the phone, then you hesitate Everybody wanna be a thug till it’s time to do thug shit All that bark in the comments, when it’s real, you hush up I’m grown, I’m kind, but I still take it there Say my name sideways, I’ll correct you right there Big heart, strong spine, funny by design Humble got older, but the fire still mine [Bridge] I softened my voice, not the standard I changed my ways, not my banner I can forgive and still remember I can love you and leave you under Don’t mistake a quiet room for fear I just got better at making myself clear [Final Chorus] Big heart, hard line, don’t cross that gate Talk tough on the phone, then you hesitate Everybody wanna be a thug till it’s time to do thug shit All that bark in the comments, when it’s real, you hush up I’m grown, I’m kind, but I still take it there Say my name sideways, I’ll correct you right there Big heart, strong spine, funny by design Humble got older, but the fire still mine [Outro] Keep my name out your mouth Unless you’re saying it right Big heart, big boundary Goodnight
