Lyrics, Romanization & English Translation
Yeah, yeah, yeah, mmm
I'm over the top, so what?
I'm just tryna give 'em all the what they want
No, I ain't hard to love
They know a thing like me is once in a lifetime
Spotlight on me, even when we laying in the dark
I don't even mind 'em seeing all my battle scars
Couple twists and turns, they took me straight to where we are
Outta the ashes, I'm coming alive
I think that's why they eyein' me
Watchin' me, my legacy
I took it to the top
From the start, never stop
I ain't going nowhere, I'm an icon
When all them other nobodies are long gone
I don't even need to turn the mic' on, ay-ya-ya-ya-ya
Damn, I got it, I'm iconic
Chasing the footsteps, you're tryna act too blessed
Tryin' too hard, na-na, ooh-ooh
But you best better stay calm, stop trying to be too on
Damn, I got it, I'm iconic
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, yeah, yeah
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, yeah, yeah
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, yeah, yeah
Damn, I got it, I'm iconic
Don't gotta tell me twice
I'm just tryna give 'em all the what they like (like)
Got me so up, I'm fly (yeah)
Up in a lifted state of mind (yeah)
Imagine you living the high life, every second of your life
Everything better, I'm loving the view from the high rise
Even when it's high tide, I know that you wanna
Get into the middle of my ocean, you gotta
Gimme all my props 'cause, baby, I'm a hustla
When they talk about me they all saying, "Oh, I love her!"
I ain't seeing no lies, look here, I'm the highlight
If you had my love, you'd love me for your whole life
I think that's why they eyein' me
Watchin' me, my legacy
I took it to the top
From the start, never stop
I ain't going nowhere, I'm an icon
When all them other nobodies are long gone
I don't even need to turn the mic on, ay-ya-ya-ya-ya
Damn, I got it, I'm iconic
Chasing the footsteps, you're tryna act too blessed
Tryin' too hard, na-na, ooh-ooh (ooh)
But you best better stay calm, stop trying to be too on
Damn, I got it, I'm iconic
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, yeah, yeah
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, yeah, yeah (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, yeah, yeah
Damn, I got it, I'm iconic
