Stand On Business Lyrics by Σhomari
Yeah, from Texas roots to that Alabama soil
Made a man out of me, standing on it
I stand on bits and toes in the dirt
Learned from the pain, had to bleed through the hurt
They switched up quick, now I see what it’s worth
If it ain’t real love, I’ma leave it at first
I stand on business, no folding, no bending
Lost a few souls, still I rise again
Got blues in my blood, but I smile through sin
If I said it, I meant it, I stand on it then
Texas bone with a fire in my chest
But Bama raised me, gave me heart in my steps
Red dirt rolls, put strength in my belt
Turned a young soul into a man through tests
Back row riding, late night drinking
And your humming got my soul steady sankin’
Seen fake love turn cold in a blink
Had to cut ties, couldn’t drown in a drink
Mama said, boy, keep your word like gold
Life don’t test everything that you hold
Now I’m out here tryin’ not to lose my soul
While the world keep pushin’, tryin’ to break my code
They love when you down, they hate when you rise
Smile in your face, got envy in they eyes
So I move with a purpose, I don’t move off lies
Too much truth in me, I ain’t livin’ in disguise
Oh, from them Texas skies to Alabama rain
Oh, I done felt that joy and pain
Still I stand
Still I stand
Oh I stand on business ten toes in the dirt
Turned from the pain, had to bleed through the hurt
They switched up quick now I see what it’s worth
If it ain’t real love I’ma leave it at first
I stand on business, no folding, no bending
Lost a few souls, still I rise again
Got blues in my blood, but I smile through sin
If I said it, I meant it, I stand on it then
Yeah, missing birthdays, highway miles
Talking to the Lord through windshield trials
From Texas Roost to Bama, grown style
Still carry both every step, every mile
I gave my heart, they played they part
Left me scarred, but it made me smart
Now I build from the ground, brick by brick
Every loss taught me how to move quick
Ain’t no shockers on this road, I’m on
Just faith in my steps and a microphone
Turn my past into these songs I own
Now my truth hit harder than a dial tone
Look, Texas made me
Alabama raised me
Life tested me
Now I stand on end
I stand on business
Ten toes in the dirt
Turned from the pain, had to bleed through the hurt
They switched up quick, now I see what it’s worth
If it ain’t real love, I’ma leave it at first I stand on business
No folding, no bending
Lost a few souls, still I rise again
Got blues in my blood, but I smile through sin
If I said it, I meant it I stand on it then
Yeah, two states, one story No more halfway living
You either stand on it, or you don’t
