Off The Top
The track opens with classic hip-hop drums and a bold brass orchestra riff. Trap-inspired bass drops punch in as synthesizers and energetic 90’s dance rhythms drive the verses. Electronic textures swirl under rapid-fire rap flows, culminating in explosive brass hooks over floor-filling EDM drops.

Lyrics
Verse 1
Wake up
Same hoodie, same cup
Rent due, group chat
Everybody talkin’ ‘bout a pay cut
Scroll thumb numb
Highlights, high life, fake love
Meanwhile my bus late
I’m runnin’ in my work shoes, laced up
Mama say “breathe first”
Bills in a stack like a free verse
I just laugh, hit the street, head lean
Turn the concrete floor to a green room
Chorus
Off the top, I don’t stop when it’s rough
Turn one small shot to a whole lot of luck
Came from not enough, now I’m callin’ that bluff
Yeah, I bend, I bend, but I never give up
Off the top, off the top, that’s us
From the back of the bus to the front of the club
Write my name in the dust, watch it rise when I jump
Yeah, I bend, I bend, but I never give up
Verse 2
Clock in
Boss talk big, I’m locked in
But my mind on a stage with the lights dim
Whole crowd go quiet when the rhyme hit
Back home, two rooms, three cousins
One pot, four spoons, we buzzin’
Turn pots, turn pans to percussion
Little beat on the table, that’s somethin’
[low vocal register] I come from “make do”
Patch whole dreams with a breakthrough
Turn one “can’t” to a “thank you”
Every doubt in my head get an “ate you”
Chorus
Bridge
[whispered vocals] Who said we can’t flip pain into gasoline?
[out loud] I got 10 bad days, that’s ten new schemes
Turn a short paycheck to a long run sprint
Turn a “you ain’t built for it” into “look what I did” (look what I did, hey!)
Chorus
