Tems - First Lyrics
Official




Giving me more, I'ma give it back
+
That's the way I light it up
+
Hanging by myself these days
+
That's the way it's going now
+
Pull me back, you know you can't
+
But I know you wanna try
+
Yeah, I know you'd like to try
+
They know I'm different, different
+
All because I'm moving different, different
+
They can't stop me now, I'm different, different
+
I be movin' anyway
+
But now they acting like they know me
+
They keep trying to control me
+
They don't care how much it hurts me
+
And so I have to change the story, story, story
+
That's why I put me fir-fir-fir-first
+
And every single day, I'm coming for first, fir-first
+
If you're gonna run, I'ma come through fir-fir-fir-first
+
Yeah, I'm gonna do it how I want to, fir-fir-fir-first
+
See, I'm not going back
+
I'm all new, I'm all-in
+
In my life, I know why
+
But I move in silence
+
I'm sorry, they not me, but you know they can't be
+
They can't be
+
I know these streets, I don't compete, I don't compete
+
I know they watching, they still checking about me
+
And yet, I know that without God, I nobody
+
Eternity is real, that's the way I feel, I feel, mm
+
That's why I put me fir-fir-fir-first
+
And every single day, I'm coming for first, fir-first
+
If you're gonna run, I'ma come through fir-fir-fir-first
+
Yeah, I'm gonna do it how I want to, fir-fir-fir-first
+
Ooh, ooh
+
Oh-ooh, ooh
+
Ooh, ooh (first, first)
+
Ooh, ooh (oh, oh)
+
