Verse 1 Graduated, sent that email, got the interview call “Consultant or teller?” I just wanted it all Branch made the choice, I was placed where they needed Started as a teller, young, focused, but defeated Had a vision board, I could see something bigger But the years rolled by and the progress got thinner One year, two years, still stuck in position Third year passed, losing faith in the vision Then my daughter came, gave my life a new meaning But the job stayed the same, I was mentally bleeding Manager retired, yeah that man had a heart Held us down like a family, kept us all from apart Then he passed, everything shifted in tone Fourth, fifth year… I was stuck on my own People leveled up, I was watching them leave Same desk every day, man it’s hard to believe Hook Took a leap of faith, had to risk it all No safety net when I made that call Lost everything just to find my way Had to trust myself, couldn’t stay the same Leap of faith Verse 2 Sixth year pressure, now the warnings got real Saw the setup coming, had to trust what I feel 24 December, yeah I made that call Walked away from everything, had to risk it all Lost my phone twice, felt my life going left Came back home like “what’s happening?” feeling stressed They said “you left the job” but it felt like I lost it Seven years of my life and it barely paid off it Clients I helped? Man, they never replied That lesson right there hit my ego and pride Mental breakdown hit, I was lost in the dark Had to move to Joburg just to restart my fight Still doing teller work, just a different location Same loop, same cycle, different situation That’s when Kinky stepped in, said “you bigger than this” Saw the leader in me I was scared to admit Pushed my name forward, yeah she stood on my case Every doubt in my head, she replaced it with faith Interview pressure, now I’m back in that room But this time I’m talking like I got something to prove No more just a teller, I was speaking with vision Breaking down strategy, owning every decision When they gave me that title, yeah it hit in my chest Not luck, not chance—man, I earned that respect Hook Took a leap of faith, had to risk it all No safety net when I made that call Lost everything just to find my way Had to trust myself, couldn’t stay the same Leap of faith Verse 3 First days in the role, yeah I won’t lie—I was drowning Different weight on my shoulders, new pressure surrounding From leading a team to handling conflict Had to learn real quick or be gone just as quick Second guessing moves, trying hard not to show it Had the title in my hands but was scared I might blow it Long nights in my head, replaying decisions From being just staff… now I carry the vision Made mistakes early, had to own every one Took hits to my pride but I still had to run Had to earn their respect, couldn’t fake my position Turned doubt into drive, turned fear into discipline Started finding my voice, now I speak and they listen From the floor to the office, I’m controlling the system Now I walk in that branch and the energy shifts From the bottom of the ladder… now I’m leading the shift Now I’m aiming ahead, yeah the vision expanded Regional next, yeah I planned it and branded From a teller stuck still, feeling lost and damaged To standing right here… as a service manager (Hook) Took a leap of faith, had to risk it all No safety net when I made that call Lost everything just to find my way Had to trust myself, couldn’t stay the same Leap Of Faith Bridge Leap of faith Leap of faith Leap of faith Took a leap of faith
