VERSE 1

I move righteous so the night never harm my steps
A clean conscience worth more than a chain on the chest
They chase wins off lies, but the wins don’t last
Cause you cannot outrun karma when it’s running your past
I took the long route, slow cook, brick by brick
Cause shortcuts come quick, but they crumble too quick
I’ve seen kings lose crowns trying to win too fast
What’s a throne made of gold if it’s built on glass?
My peace worth millions, it’s generational stack
Why they gamble with they name, I protect my black
Success came slowly, but I’m rich in my sleep
I never planted dirty seeds for the harvest I keep

⸻

CHORUS

A good soul, good heart, yeah, that’s my foundation
No lies, no schemes, no secret operation
Takes longer to win, but the win hit greater
When you never had to play snake, never had to play traitor
I rest easy every night cause I’m still in my story
Ain’t no fear on my steps, ain’t no stress on my door
What I gave for living right, more peace than noise
That’s the payoff, that’s the prize of a person who’s loyal
Yeah, a good soul, good heart, yeah, that’s my foundation
That’s the payoff, that’s the prize of a person who’s loyal

VERSE 2

(Lookin’ over shoulders, ain’t running from my past)
(Peace is different when your house built to last)
(I ain’t lying, ain’t conniving, ain’t selling my soul)
(It might take a long road, but that road lead me home)
(They sweat for the fame, but I’m built for the climb)
(Good karma wait, it just show up on time)
See the good guys win, yeah, that’s a sight to see
Peace hit different when you living with honesty
You sleep deeper at night when your heart and slate clean
So I’m more than rich, I’m a dream
I ain’t chase dirty money, kept my morals intact
I’ve seen a lot of artists rise quick and then they collapse
Like mobile cycles, watch the snakes creep back, yeah
I keep my circle tight, never fall for the trap
Every step calculated like I’m moving chess pieces
Patience over panic, let my blessings increase
This the fame don’t define me, my character speaks
Roots run deep, keep my growth far from the streets

⸻

CHORUS

A good soul, good heart, yeah, that’s my foundation
No lies, no schemes, no secret operation
Takes longer to win, but the win hit greater
When you never had to play snake, never had to play traitor
I rest easy every night cause I’m still in my story
Ain’t no fear on my steps, ain’t no stress on my door
What I gave for living right, more peace than noise
That’s the payoff, that’s the prize of a person who’s loyal
Yeah, a good soul, good heart, yeah, that’s my foundation
That’s the payoff, that’s the prize of a person who’s loyal
