He delivers, “The way I been moving I see that I’m different/But I can’t take chats back from any man like some dickhead/We was in the trenches making a dime bag.”
Deeper into the song, he drops some warning bars off to the haters. Additionally, MKHL showcases an unwavering tenacity, saying, “Wanna put me in the box like office/Keyboard tucked to your head like wanted.”
Given the context, the artist is just getting started. He has more releases on the way that are guaranteed to blow your mind.
