Look At Me Now Lyrics

[Verse 1: Emilio Rojas]
They told me not to cave under pressure, be brave under pressure
All I wanted was my face inside a frame on the dresser
They told me if I only switched lanes, it’d be better
But I finally broke the chains of the game, my oppressor
Made a mistake and I got hitched to a Canadian
Half-Iranian crazy bitch so she could get her papers quick
Daddy was crazy rich, I should’ve made him pay for it
At a rate of 20K inside a safe, it would’ve made my rent
That would’ve made a dent, that would’ve made it worth it
If I coulda made her mute, then that would’ve made her perfect
I wonder what would happen now if immigration heard this
Would they haul my ass away the next day while I was workin'?
Now that’s what I call leavin' on a high y’all
I’m flyin' out when I ball like buyin' out the sky mall
While y’all are stoppin' at your problems instead of switchin' grinds
Trippin' over hurdles and sprintin' over that finish line

[Hook: Dion Primo]
They said I never would make it
I was the one they counted out
Look at how far I could take it
I’m in the sky, would you look at me now?
Look at me now, look at me now, yeah

[Verse 2: Emilio Rojas]
I be in and out of court still, livin' out of sorts
And I’m trippin' ’cause this shit’s a contradiction of my morals
I’m systematically lettin' the system have it
And gettin' them bitches movin' like I was in human traffickin'
When Green give me that green light, I’m goin' in
And I’m movin' fans so much that they gettin' motion sick
But I’m emotionless, ain’t nobody cold as this
You sayin' you as dope as me, homie, I think you hopin' it
I’m focusin' on just one thing, y’all hopin' I’m bringin' that city back
Like Lebron but I only want rings, I’m cavalier and I spit heat
And this week, I'mma get the cash for a chandelier like I hit peak
I’m gettin' mines, me and winnin' is intertwined
At any step, I could blow, it’s like I’m walkin' on mines
While y’all are stoppin' at your problems instead of switchin' grinds
Trippin' over hurdles and sprintin' over that finish line
[Hook: Dion Primo]
They said I never would make it
I was the one they counted out
Look at how far I could take it
I’m in the sky, would you look at me now?
Look at me now, look at me now, yeah

[Verse 3: Emilio Rojas]
Emilio supplyin' that real shit
If you look me in my eyes, you could feel it
All my frenemies, they tried to conceal it
Revelation ain’t the endin', it’s the time for revealin'
They envious, they eyes have been peelin', snakes shed skin
To blow, I’ll escape from New York like I’m Snake Plissken
I’m stayin' in it, the city know I’m committed
The voice of my generation and now they startin' to listen

[Hook: Dion Primo]
They said I never would make it
I was the one they counted out
Look at how far I could take it
I’m in the sky, would you look at me now?
Look at me now, look at me now, yeah
