You may think I’m joking around, but what I’m about to tell you is all straight fact You may think I’m slacking behind on where I’m destined to be, but listen to me, don’t turn your back You might be surprised when I tell you that yes, I’m coming It might not be when you want, but when I come in my wheels are still going to be burning You’re gonna doubt my success of course, you’re gonna think that I never did earn it And this fame that I know I’m gonna get, you’re gonna think that I don’t deserve it This message I got for you, I’ll be more than honored to serve it. You are gonna see me grow stronger overtime and you’re gonna be proud of the woman I’m becoming You still think I’m not coming, but I’m and when I do, you won’t see me running You think you are ahead of me? Well check your side-view mirrors, and tell me who you see. It’s me you see and I’m going way above the speed. Objects in mirror are closer than what they appear You think I’m not gonna make it but look, I’m already here You didn’t see me coming when I was on my road to success You think I cut you off, you just didn’t see me coming and that made you upset. I know that I’m greater and not all the dollars in the world can name my value I’m made it to where I want to be and yes, I expected you to think I was mad at you. I’m conquering all obstacles and I’m taking whatever it is that has my name I’m holding the title “champion” because I already beat this game I told you I was gonna make it, don’t worry, have no shame Traded my chair for a throne, what a mighty exchange When they asking who out did them, I’ll take that blame.

You Won't See Me Coming
You may think I’m joking around, but what I’m about to tell you is all straight fact You may think I’m slacking behind on where I’m destined to be, but listen to me, don’t turn your back You might be surprised when I tell you that yes, I’m coming It might not be when you want, but when I come in my wheels are still going to be burning You’re gonna doubt my success of course, you’re gonna think that I never did earn it And this fame that I know I’m gonna get, you’re gonna think that I don’t deserve it This message I got for you, I’ll be more than honored to serve it. You are gonna see me grow stronger overtime and you’re gonna be proud of the woman I’m becoming You still think I’m not coming, but I’m and when I do, you won’t see me running You think you are ahead of me? Well check your side-view mirrors, and tell me who you see. It’s me you see and I’m going way above the speed. Objects in mirror are closer than what they appear You think I’m not gonna make it but look, I’m already here You didn’t see me coming when I was on my road to success You think I cut you off, you just didn’t see me coming and that made you upset. I know that I’m greater and not all the dollars in the world can name my value I’m made it to where I want to be and yes, I expected you to think I was mad at you. I’m conquering all obstacles and I’m taking whatever it is that has my name I’m holding the title “champion” because I already beat this game I told you I was gonna make it, don’t worry, have no shame Traded my chair for a throne, what a mighty exchange When they asking who out did them, I’ll take that blame.
When reading this, the perspective isn't personal. Its going from a person who had a dream, was doubted, and started living their dreams and living it right. When is says "You think I cut you off, you just didn't see me coming and that made you upset" is saying that you didn't know that I really was going to live up to my dream one day, and you're upset now that you are wrong/ at the fact that I'm successful now.
