Lyric

Mm. Check the numbers. Nah, I'm good

Keep the trophy, I'll keep the neighborhood

Woke up early, coffee black, no filter on my face

Phone is buzzing, I don't peek, I'm setting my own pace

Rankings rise and rankings fall, they're nothing but a tide

I build a house on solid ground, I'm not here for the ride

Lawyer on the phone by nine, my contracts all in ink

Used to count on strangers' clicks, now I count what I think

Every dollar has a name, every deal got a spine

Lined my pockets honestly, and yeah, the view is fine

They say "go viral," I say "go vital,"

Roots run deeper than a headline title

Mama's in the kitchen on a street that's mine

Paid in full, no countdown, no finish line

Don't hand me the scoreboard, I wrote the game

Same last name, but a brand-new frame

Ledger over likes, baby, count it right

Gold in the daylight, peace at night

Let 'em chase the charts, I'll chase the sun

Ledger over likes, I already won

Ledger over likes, tell the people hey

Quiet money moves in a loud, loud way

Studio at midnight, red light on the glass

Every line I write down is a brick, and bricks will last

Critics sip their lukewarm takes, I sip my own champagne

They measure me in numbers, I just measure out my gain

Flip a doubt into a dollar, flip a fear into a plan

Hold my head up high enough to see the whole span

Friends who showed up early still sit close at my table

Fake ones faded softly, and I wasn't even able

To miss them, 'cause the room is bright and honest now

Heart rate steady, ink dry, all my promises vowed

You can keep the algorithm, keep the spotlight's sting

I've got front-row seats to everything I bring

Don't hand me the scoreboard, I wrote the game

Same last name, but a brand-new frame

Ledger over likes, baby, count it right

Gold in the daylight, peace at night

Let 'em chase the charts, I'll chase the sun

Ledger over likes, I already won

Ledger over likes, tell the people hey

Quiet money moves in a loud, loud way

If it all went silent, would I still be here?

Yes. Hands steady, vision clear

Thank you to the girl I was, the one who kept the faith

She never needed applause to know her own worth's weight

Spin it back, I'm in the lane that nobody drew

Built the road by walking it, left the map for you

Every no became a ladder, every wall became a door

Counted all my blessings twice, then I counted some more

No trophy on the mantle, just a picture of my crew

Dinner's at the table, and the table's mine too

So if you're keeping score tonight, congratulations, friend

I'm already home, and the story has no end

Ledger over likes, baby, count it right

Gold in the daylight, peace at night

Let 'em chase the charts, I'll chase the sun

Ledger over likes, I already won

Mm. Numbers don't know my name

But I do
