Haters Gonna Hate and 80 Gonna Be Great- 80 Johnsons

(Intro — upbeat bass, playful but confident) Yeah… They talk a lot. I move a lot. Big difference. Verse 1 They love to count my steps, love to doubt my pace, Watchin’ from the sidelines, never in the race. Every little move I make live rent-free, Funny how my name’s the headline, not me. They throw shade like it pays the rent, I stack results while they type comments. Laugh when I stumble, cry when I fly, Same people switch tones when the numbers get high. Pre-Hook They want a reaction, I give ‘em success, Best revenge ain’t words — it’s progress, yes. I don’t clap back, I elevate, Let ‘em talk… I’m runnin’ late. Hook Haters gonna hate, that’s fate, that’s fate, 80 gonna be great — yeah, elevate. While they stuck complainin’ at the gate, I’m ten steps up like “check the rate.” Haters gonna hate, same old script, 80 gonna be great — watch the shift. They can doubt, they can speculate, But the scoreboard loud: 80 gonna be great. Verse 2 They call it luck when they can’t explain skill, Call it ego when you know your will. I learned early not to beg for a seat, Built my own table, now it’s hard to compete. Every L I took turned fuel to flame, Every closed door just widened my lane. They wait for a fall like it’s destiny, I keep risin’ ‘cause pressure befriended me. Hook Haters gonna hate, say my name, say it twice, 80 gonna be great — no rollin’ the dice. I don’t need approval, I don’t need debate, Results speak fluent — 80 gonna be great. Haters gonna hate, let ‘em ventilate, I turn negativity into a higher rate. They stuck lookin’ back, I accelerate, Past, present, future say 80 gonna be great. Bridge If they ain’t talkin’, you ain’t movin’ enough, Silence is cool but the noise means stuff. I don’t mind the hate, it’s part of the grind, Means I’m on their radar without even tryin’. Verse 3 I don’t flex for clout, I flex for proof, Every win stamped, every loss the truth. They love to predict when I’ll finally fold, I love to prove ‘em wrong — never gets old. I keep my circle tight, my vision wide, They chase attention, I chase the climb. Say what you want, I already know, Greatness ain’t loud — it’s consistent though. Final Hook Haters gonna hate, that’s how it goes, 80 gonna be great — now you know. I don’t slow down, I don’t stagnate, While they still talkin’, 80 gonna be great. Haters gonna hate, write it on your slate, Every chapter end the same — dominate. Say it with me, don’t hesitate… 80 Johnsons. Great. Outro They’ll keep talkin’. I’ll keep winnin’.
