First Lyrics – Tems

[Verse 1]
Giving me more, I’ma give it back
That’s the way I light it up
Hanging by myself these days
That’s the way it’s going now
Pull me back, you know you can’t
But I know you wanna try
Yeah, I know you’d like to try

[Verse 2]
They know I’m different, different
All because I’m moving different, different
They can’t stop me now, I’m different, different
I be moving anyway

[Pre-Chorus]
But now they acting like they know me
They keep trying to control me
They don’t care how much it hurts me
And so I have to change the story, story, story

[Chorus]
That’s why I put me fir-fir-fir-first
And every single day, I’m coming for first, fir-first
If you’re gonna run, I’ma come through fir-fir-fir-first
Yeah, I’m gonna do it how I want to, fir-fir-fir-first

[Verse 3]
See, I’m not going back, I’m all new, I’m all-in
In my life, I know why, but I move in silence
I’m sorry they not me, but you know they can’t be
They can’t be

[Verse 4]
I know these streets, I don’t compete, I don’t compete
I know they watching, they still checking about me
And yet, I know that without God, I’m nobody

Eternity is real, that’s the way I feel, I feel, mm

[Chorus]
That’s why I put me fir-fir-fir-first
And every single day, I’m coming for first, fir-first
If you’re gonna run, I’ma come through fir-fir-fir-first
Yeah, I’m gonna do it how I want to, fir-fir-fir-first

[Outro]
Ooh, ooh
Ooh (First, first)
Ooh (Oh, oh)
