Don't pretend I got a reason to call you, it's not true
I only got a couple people to talk to and it's not you (yeah)
And I don't even got the patience to argue
So, are you outta your mind?
I got a lot of reasons to fight
I got a lot of reasons to drive over you
But I, I put my pride to the side
I put my, I put my, never stopped
Had to take a turn and turn it into somethin' that's new
Say you missed me, wasn't missing, is it clockin' to you?
Wait and see 'cause it's somethin' new and improved, yeah, yeah
Heat checkin', uh, heat checkin' these chickens, uh, yeah
And I go speed racin', speed racin' for the record, uh, yeah
And I achieve greatness, gettin' better by the second, uh, yeah
And I go speed racin', we ain't finished, we ain't finished just yet
Don't stress, don't stress it, baby, uh
I keep creepin', I keep creepin', uh (mm, yeah)
A speed demon, speed demon, uh
So keep dreamin', I can't see 'em, uh
A speed demon, speed demon, yeah
They try to say I'm outta my mind (mm-mm)
But now they singin' every line (of my mind)
Uh, sing it
I got a lot of mountains to climb (mm-mm)
Had to leave some baggage behind (yeah)
(Mm)
And there's somethin' that's stronger than me
That's pavin' me a new lane and givin' me an energy
And there's somethin' in the way she made me certain I'm enough
Every day she put that lovin' on me
And all the people that been doubtin' on me
They came to witness my redemption, now they up out my seat
Got 'em clappin' their feet, uh
Had to put my heart on my sleeve, uh, yeah
I said, "Heat checkin', heat checkin' these chickens", uh, yeah
And I go speed racin', speed racin' for the record, uh, yeah
And I achieve greatness, gettin' better by the second, uh, yeah
And I go speed racin', we ain't finished, we ain't finished just yet
Don't stress, don't stress it baby, uh
Fast-forward until we find it (uh)

In case you ever need a remindin'
You better keeps gettin' better (uh)
I won it by a million miles
You already know what the time is (okay, yeah)
It's forever, forever, ever, I said, "Forever"
Heat checkin' (mm), heat checkin' these chickens, uh, yeah
And I go speed racin', speed racin' for the record, uh, yeah
And I achieve greatness, gettin' better by the second, uh, yeah
