lirik lagu nico roberts - newcomers
[part i]
[intro: luther vandross, nico roberts]
love has truly been good to me
love has truly been good to me
not even one sad da~
yeah, they thought i was temporary
but we permanent ink now
i’m the newcomers, b~tch
time to show ’em how i enter
[verse 1]
i came in like a glitch in the system
kickin’ down doors, they ain’t wanna list him
name buzzin’ like static through cracked phones
every bar like karma — it come back strong
industry full of clones and yes~men
we the virus in the code — don’t press “send.”
too loud for the quiet rooms they built
i got trauma in my voice and a blade for guilt
say my name with respect, not emojis
you post subs — i post trophies
you flex likes — i flex legacy
tryna tap in? nah, don’t message me
this for the loners and fighters
the quiet kids turnin’ into biters
newcomers, yeah we changin’ the code
like: “who let them in?” us. now the building explodes
[hook]
newcomers, kickin’ through the walls they made, (love has truly been good to me)
we don’t ask — we take our place. (not even one sad day)
came from nothin’, now we decorate
this our moment — no time to wait
newcomers, never backin’ down again
told the world “h~llo” through pain
you hear the drums? you feel the weight?
we legends now — remember the name
[verse 2]
i ain’t asked for a feature, i became the feature
used to scribble on desks, now i school the teachers
labels scared ’cause we don’t bend or kneel
we independent with a major feel
they tried to blackball — we painted the room
now it’s basquiats hangin’ over every tune
grew up on noodles and replays
now it’s lobster while i reload the 808s
haters actin’ like we overnight fame
but this took ten years and infinite pain
they said “you too raw,” well that’s the plan
now i’m mixin’ so amazing with a stick in hand
every line a spark, every beat’s a war
we ain’t new to this, just new to the floor
broke the locks, now we run the halls
tell luther thanks — we made the call
[bridge: luther vandross]
love has truly been good to me
so amazing to be loved
[verse 3]
they said “calm down,” i turned it up louder
bloodline full of kings — i’m my ancestor’s power
these blogs don’t validate pain
but every hater just adding propane
see, i walk like i’m chosen, rhyme like i’m owed
they threw dirt — now i bloom from the mold
no stylist — this drip came from pressure
no ghostwriter — these bars came fresher
sam cooke in my cadence
but the beats feel like warzone bass hits
runnin’ with a team full of wolves
no sheep in this pen — just scars and jewels
we ain’t ask for approval, we took the mic
told ’em all: “get used to this sight.”
yeah, i’m loud ‘cause i had to be
when silence just led to tragedy
now i roar with a purpose
newcomers — here to scratch the surface
[hook: nico roberts, luther vandross]
love has truly been good to me
love has truly been good to me
newcomers, breakin’ all the rules they wrote
we the ones that sunk they boats
no co~sign, still we float —
legends now, we built the quote
“so amazing to be loved…”
[part ii]
[verse]
they clappin’ now but never clapped for me when i was broke
had a death wish when the rent missed, still i never choked
mom cried when i ain’t show up for christmas
i was locked in with the pad — no wishlist
this fame come with silence, not applause
a room full of strangers tryna love you through your flaws
i done cried in the mirror ’til my eyes cracked
then wrote verses like knives, never dialed back
my friends turned ghosts, my foes turned bosses
had to eat pride while tallyin’ losses
now i move like a shadow through the bright rooms
smilin’ wide while my soul playin’ tight tunes
told god, “i’m grateful,” even when i cursed him
i was ten feet low, in the dirt, still rehearsin’
now the cameras flash but the nights feel colder
success feel light ‘til the pain rolls over
they see a king, i see a haunted kid
that boy with the pen — he ain’t never really lived
but we here now. so i write this for the truth
for every lonely heart labeled “new.”
