about

There is no artist who has never contemplated throwing in the towel. On the journey to your dreams, you’re faced with a lot of obstacles that make you question if you have it in you. I wrote this song as an anthem to encourage people to keep going and tell their haters to “wait your turn”.

lyrics

CHORUS X 2 - ARLO MAVERICK, OOZEELA & MOURAINE
I’m doing me (Ayyy)
I’m doing me (Ayyy)
I’m doing me
Wait your turn
I’m doing me (Ayyy)
I’m doing me (Ayyy)
I’m doing me
Wait your turn

VERSE 1 - ARLO MAVERICK
I’m ready to eat
Man I been starving for years
Swallowing pride
Drinking my tears
Said I was low
Nobody cared
Ever been po’
Nothing compares
Broke as a joke as I follow my dreams
Now you in debt can you stomach the screams
Late on your rent, where will you sleep
Hard nut to crack, gotta believe
No cheat codes
Go beast mode
Repeat those and reach goals
But please know they’ll repo
So see hope you’re real close
Prepare to be lonely
Prepare to be scared
Prepare for a journey
When nobodies there

CHORUS X 2 - ARLO MAVERICK, OOZEELA & MOURAINE
I’m doing me (Ayyy)
I’m doing me (Ayyy)
I’m doing me
Wait your turn
I’m doing me (Ayyy)
I’m doing me (Ayyy)
I’m doing me
Wait your turn

VERSE 2 - ARLO MAVERICK
I wanna be free
Eat by the sweat of my brow
Living for Friday
Instead live for now
Believe in myself
Stop asking how
One life to live
I’m living it now
NSF cheques am I built for that shit
No gas in my tank would that force me to quit
Sacrifice love if it meant I’d be rich
Where’s the reward if I won’t take the risk
My own man
So no thanks
Just know that I won’t ask
Please hold back your cold laugh
I know that it’s bold that
I’m prepared to be lonely
Prepared to be scared
Prepared for a journey
Where nobody cares

CHORUS X 2 - ARLO MAVERICK, OOZEELA & MOURAINE
I’m doing me (Ayyy)
I’m doing me (Ayyy)
I’m doing me
Wait your turn
I’m doing me (Ayyy)
I’m doing me (Ayyy)
I’m doing me
Wait your turn

VERSE 3 - DEUCE FANTASTICK
You see the wins but don’t know about the losses
You see me shine but don’t know about the darkness
Late nights, sacrifice
Tryn’a trust the process
Understand slow is better than no progress
There will be hardships
There will be strain
The game is heartless
There will be pain
Honestly a part of me gotta be insane
To suffer all of this for the love to entertain
But it’s the life I chose
So I’ma work it
Nobody said it be easy
Just worth it
So when you put on my EP
You get all of me
Not just the part you see up on the surface
I came from nothing
Look what I grew to be
I’m a staple in my city like the Jubilee
My haters sing uh-oh
Word to Lumidee
And truthfully
It all came from doing me

CHORUS X 2 - ARLO MAVERICK, OOZEELA & MOURAINE
I’m doing me (Ayyy)
I’m doing me (Ayyy)
I’m doing me
Wait your turn
I’m doing me (Ayyy)
I’m doing me (Ayyy)
I’m doing me
Wait your turn
