A-dree-en

I had to watch it crumble, I had to lose it all

Just to find out who I was with my back against the wall

Abandoned in the shadows, learning lessons the hard way

But the fire in the struggle brought me to this better day

I keep it straight forward, I don't ever fake the truth

A-dree-en stepping up, yeah, I finally found the proof

I had to drop the weight to see where I'm supposed to be

Now the mirror's looking back and I finally see me

Now I got tunnel vision, money on my mind

Cut these bitches off, left the drama far behind

Manifestation, speaking power to the truth

Yeah, I feel like the man every time I walk through

I'm exactly in the place that I'm supposed to be

I had to lose it all just to find the real me

No more second chances for the energy that drains

I took the heavy losses and I turned them into gains

I don't sugarcoat a thing, tell it exactly how it is

I'm focused on the paper, yeah, I'm handling the biz

Every step is calculated, moving to the peak

I'm manifesting everything that I decide to speak

The hard lessons left a scar but they cleared up my view

Now there's nothing in this world that I can't do

Now I got tunnel vision, money on my mind

Cut these bitches off, left the drama far behind

Manifestation, speaking power to the truth

Yeah, I feel like the man every time I walk through

I'm exactly in the place that I'm supposed to be

I had to lose it all just to find the real me

They didn't see the vision when I was in the dark

But the pressure and the silence only lit the spark

Straight forward with the hustle, I don't ever miss a beat

Now I'm standing on my own, standing steady on my feet

'Cause I got tunnel vision, money on my mind

Cut these bitches off, left the drama far behind

Manifestation, speaking power to the truth

Yeah, I feel like the man every time I walk through

I'm exactly in the place that I'm supposed to be

A-dree-en lost it all, just to find the real me

Yeah, I feel like the man every time I walk through
