about
"'Different Path' is the hero song for the individual that follows their path despite what everyone around them has to say," says Pavé of the track. "It's what you get when you 'Subtract all of the wack' from your life and put your faith in yourself. For so long, I thought my weakness was being an independent artist because people around me didn't value artists until they got signed. I knew that getting signed could be a life-altering trap, so I had to get over that idea of Independence being a weakness and make it my strength. It also touches on the things that happen to young black creatives in many industries controlled by white people. They give you a task that they think is impossible to do, the young black creative does it despite the odds, instead of being praised or helped to the next level, they face indifference from the string pullers. Fuck em."
lyrics
Intro: Mmmhmm, MmmmmmmHmmmm
Told them niggas...
Verse 1: My path is different/Nah my math is different
I had to substract all of the wack/now I can see it so clearly
2020 is the vision.. haa/James bonds on a mission haa
Told em I flip them investments/they aint wanna listen... mmhmm
Then I flipped them investments/double it triple it now they indifferent
Get the fuck out my face/you running the world it aint about race
I been behind the whole time/yeah, now I'm on skates
God bless ya cause ima test ya niggas gone fail today
Balance the scale today/shit is so evil my niggas think hell is safe.
I came to elevate get off the ground like elevators
Get out my town you gentrificators
You just want the sound I am a cicada
I'm gone hold it down I won't be forsaken
I'm gone wear the crown I know I'm the greatest....
Verse 2: Know I'm the greatest yeah.. rocking these tags
I'm tryna cop me a jag/hop on a jet and it's neva gone lag
I'm tryna clean the ocean/I'm chasing reusable bags
Fuck you mean i aint focused/made riches wit these rags
I switched lanes dont crash/I sold drugs no hash
Neva got caught can't judge/what the fuck i does wit my past.
Now I'm overseas on embassies just stacking my cash
How you make that so fast/I turned 26 this past...
At 19 I couldn't afford gas.. now I need me a mask to hide all of this cash
Now I need me a mask to hide all of this cash
Yeah... now I be up on yo ass... uhhh!
Hook: My path is different/Nah my math is different
I had to substract all of the wack/now I can see it so clearly
2020 is the vision.. haa/James bonds on a mission haa
Told em I flip them investments/they aint wanna listen... mmhmm
Then I flipped them investments/double it triple it now they indifferent
Yeah yeah.. now they indifferent.
Then I flipped them investments/double it triple it now they indifferent
Fuck em.. they can suck on my dickies... yeah!
