Deserve It - Victor Kwesi Mensah, Mr Hudson

We was broke but we had heart, I knew from the start

Niggas fall down but we never fall apart

They be screaming «pick a lane"I don’t know I be swerving on them hoes,

I been workin' on my soul

I ain’t perfect but I know that I deserve it (Ayy)

I put the work in, I earned it, I did this shit on purpose

I know I’m fuckin' worth it (Ayy)

Even when I’m feelin' worthless, underneath the surface, I know that I deserve

it, woah

I know that I deserve it, woah

And I know that I ain’t perfect, but I do it with a purpose, one thing is for

certain

I know that I deserve it

17, see my name written on a star

Lookin' up too high to crash my momma car

Had to get it on my own I got it a la carte

Built this shit up outta heart just like a house of cards

They been praying on my death, not a threat, still alive and in the flesh

Southside, it’s on my neck

I can’t fail, I been in hell way too long to hold my breath

Now I’m rackin' up them W’s like Wonder Woman' chest

I see 12 and I’ma step I never did a 12 step

I need power, transformation, I need miracles in fact

I need miracles in fact, got a miracle she black

I been workin' like my grandma she got scars upon her back

Now, I’m lookin' down the top is lonely

You can’t count me out they countin' on me

I’m the number one, the one and only

And if you know me, then you know that I deserve it (Ayy)

I put the work in, I earned it, I did this shit on purpose

I know I’m fuckin' worth it (Ayy)

Even when I’m feelin' worthless, underneath the surface, I know that I deserve

it, woah

I know that I deserve it, woah

And I know that I ain’t perfect, but I do it with a purpose, one thing is for

certain

I know that I deserve it

Since 17 she been workin' (Ayy)

On the pole but she know her purpose

She do it on her own terms, she determined

Gotta make her earn it, she know that she deserve it

Use to serve but he turned into a addict

Now he spend his re-up on a habit

Being broke alone is hard enough to manage

Make money but the money never made me

Had to move back in my momma basement

Ugly, he was sleepin' in the vacant

'For I started writin' on the gang shit

You know how fame just, change situations

Tryna live up to my reputation

All I gotta do is be amazing

Coolin' with the gang, celebration

Get the champagne 'cause you know that we deserve it

You put the work in, you earned it, you did this shit on purpose

You know you fuckin' worth it (Ayy)

Even when you’re feelin' worthless

Underneath the surface, you know that you deserve it, woah

You know that you deserve it, woah

And you know that you ain’t perfect

But you do it with a purpose, one thing is for certain

You know that you deserve it

Two hands if the world is yours tonight, it’s good to be alive

If you’re not ready to die, then reach up for the sky

Forget about all of your problems, leaving it all behind

I know the walls are high, but you deserve to fly
