Reputation Preceding Me

Chorus

Nobody see (Nobody see)

You for you (You for you)

It's me against me

Me against you

Verse 1

Every time I walk in, they point out my imperfections (Imperfections)

Keep me in check like detention (Detention)

I know what my reputation preceding me is (Preceding me)

But I don't think nobody preceding to see me (Nobody preceding)

They say, "What is S-Z-A about?"

Ain't they talkin' 'bout me?

Me against everybody else

I guess I'm all by myself

You're not tryin' to see me

It's just me against you

Chorus

Nobody see (Nobody see)

You for you (You for you)

It's me against me (It is)

Me against you (It's just)

Verse 2

Yeah, it's just

Verse 3

I know you feel like you're alone, babe

But you been on my mind lately, lately

You know where to find me, just come

Come through, let me shine through, oh

Verse 4

You don't need a million views just to be noticed

I could be your only views, give you what you're focused on

Focus, I know that you're exhausted

And the road to success is crowded, I know they be crossing

You're just tryna do your own thing

You don't gotta be the go-to when they need someone

You should try not to overthink, no

You should try not to overshare, no

If you need a shoulder, I'm there, woah

If you need a drink, I pour up, woah

Verse 5

Keep my name out your mouth, I swear

Like you know what I'm 'bout, I'm rare

All the girls say you're down, that's fair

But you can't even pronounce my name right, how you can vouch for me?

You don't know my history

You just know what's preached about me

Chorus

Nobody see (Nobody)

You for you (For you)

It's me against me (Me against)

Me against you (Yeah, it's just me against you)

It's me against everybody else

I guess I'm all by myself

You're not tryna see me

It's just me against you
