How Many Times lyrics

[Intro]
Yeah, yeah
Yeah

[Chorus]
How many times do you think I fell?
How many times did I go through Hell?
When they told me that I, I, I, I, I, I
I wouldn't be nothin'
How many times did you think I'd cry?
They were holding me down and I kept my smile
When they told me that I, I, I, I, I, I
I wouldn't be nothin'

[Verse 1]
I'm used to not having nobody bother
Suddenly we all came from the bottom
Now I'm supposed to share my blessings with all them
Like I never, earned my stripes, like I bought 'em, (Yewena)
When sh*t got hard, I got harder, (Yewena)
When the money got small, I stood taller
I played all my finesse cards right 'cause I'm a charmer
I get that from my father and a couple step mamas
I can't even rest now I'm staying out 'til morning
Peeking out my window, I'm looking out for the stalkers
Gotta stay alive at all cost 'cause we young black bosses
If I had been broke another year, I woulda lost it
Cautious, working hard, b*tch
I'm in my pocket, I'm in my case and I'm in my office
I'm still on my raw sh*t
With all my stars on floss, b*tch
I found my light when it was the darkest (Yeah, ah)
[Chorus]
How many times do you think I fell?
How many times did I go through Hell?
When they told me that I, I, I, I, I, I
I wouldn't be nothin'
How many times did you think I'd cry?
They were holding me down and I kept my smile
When they told me that I, I, I, I, I, I
I wouldn't be nothin'

[Verse 2]
Where they at? Abekho
When you hop inside the ride, it's like ngishis' impepho
All my hands inside my pockets, kugcwele iZesto
I told 'em only I decide, if I'm special
If you don't see who run it now, get your specs, bro
I'm humble as a f*cking child, I'm on they neck though
I clean up in Balenciaga and made a mess though, ooh
Ooh (I made a mess)
Ooh (I made a mess)
Ooh (I made a mess), yeah
Ooh (I made a mess)
Ooh (I made a mess)
Ooh (I made a mess)
Ooh (I made a mess), damn
[Chorus]
How many times do you think I fell?
How many times did I go through Hell?
When they told me that I, I, I, I, I, I
I wouldn't be nothin'
How many times did you think I cry?
They were holding me down and I kept my smile
When they told me that I, I, I, I, I, I
I wouldn't be nothin'
