I walk in quiet but the silence cuts deep They study every move like I sold the whole street Murmurs in the dark try to size up my name But I don't chase noise I make shadows feel shame

Their warnings crack first when they brush my flame I don't flinch at pressure I redesign the game

Talk all you want I'll stay where you can't stand Your gossip dies quick I'm above my give a damn Throw stones at my throne see if any land I move in zones no small talk understands Yeah above my give a damn

Snakes in the grass think whispering is power But I hear every lie way before the hour Your plots got holes like a roof in the rain I don't dodge threats I make threats feel pain

Keep pushing my name see whose nerve goes first I've buried bigger storms without breaking a verse

Talk all you want I'll stay where you can't stand Your gossip dies quick I'm above my give a damn Throw stones at my throne see if any land I move in zones no small talk understands Yeah above my give a damn

I don't fold I don't dance for a seat I don't shrink for noise that can't step in my heat If respect ain't real then it's dust in my hand I rise with a strike You crawl with a plan

Talk all you want I'll stay where you can't stand Your gossip dies quick I'm above my give a damn Throw stones at my throne see if any land I move through heights no empty noise withstands Yeah above my give a damn
