The New GospelThe Power of Broke

They said a lot of things. But I only heard one thing... Go. They said the vision's too niche, said the market's not ready Said the kid from Queens should keep his hands off the machete Twenty-seven bankers, twenty-seven closed doors All of 'em sleeping on a dream they can't afford Gave me spreadsheets, projections, a hundred reasons why The ceiling they were living under was my damn floor, I told 'em fly They saw the risk, I saw the runway, a whole different view They wanted proof of concept, I told 'em the proof is what I'm 'bout to do. So I took their twenty-seven no's And built a ladder out of those Now I'm looking down on 'em, sayin' here's how it goes... This the New Gospel, this the creed for the hungry Watch me turn a "no" into a house and some country This the New Gospel, for the ones they left behind My passion is the only currency, I'm 'bout to get what's mine Yeah, I'm in my own lane, they can't stop the motion Sharks are born moving, this is my ocean! New rulebook, yeah, I wrote the intro My only L was for "Learn," now watch the info My brand is my bond, my word is my logo Adore the process, this ain't for the photo They talkin' 'bout capital, I'm talkin' 'bout heart That's the one asset they can't tear apart I did the homework while they was at the party Now the party's at my house, and they ain't gettin' started This ain't revenge, this is just the receipt For every single time they tried to orchestrate defeat. 'Cause I took their twenty-seven no's And built a ladder out of those Now I'm looking down on 'em, sayin' here's how it goes... This the New Gospel, this the creed for the hungry Watch me turn a "no" into a house and some country This the New Gospel, for the ones they left behind My passion is the only currency, I'm 'bout to get what's mine Yeah, I'm in my own lane, they can't stop the motion Sharks are born moving, this is my ocean! New Gospel. New Rules. Watch me work. Yeah.
