[Verse 1]
I never had shit, so I wear my AP when I sleep
I respect my OGs 'cause they practice what they preach
My whip customized, fully loaded, quilted seats
Buy her CC sneaks just so I don't hear a peep
I mean I got a maid that change my sheets
I'm so lit that my first crush just turned into a creep
Push-to-start, I think I lost my key under the seat
Makin' art with my home team and my whole team gon' eat

[Chorus]
Tension I feel when I go on the road
Got hittas that'll snip you down and grippin' on their pole
Tension I feel, my pinky covered in diamond rose
No pension, I'm finna go and buy my mom a Rolls
Tension I feel when I come offstage at my show
Tension I feel when I see someone that I know
Attention I feel when I wear Prada to my toes
Attention I feel when I'm surrounded by these hoes

[Verse 2]
Tension I feel when the plug don't pick up
Tension I feel when the sun comin' up
We be in the field, it ain't hard to find us
I'm chillin' at the top, you still tryna climb up
I feel tension every time I count up
Just to mention I'm grateful that they found us
They feel tension when they come around us
All this water, think the jeweler tryna drown us
Take half of the E, let her wear my rings
All my stones are fancy, be careful with these
Tension I feel when she don't give 'em back to me
Tension I feel when she don't suck me 'til I sleep

[Chorus]
Tension I feel when I go on the road
Got hittas that'll snip you down and grippin' on their pole
Tension I feel, my pinky covered in diamond rose
No pension, I'm finna go and buy my mom a Rolls
Tension I feel when I come offstage at my show
Tension I feel when I see someone that I know
Attention I feel when I wear Prada to my toes
Attention I feel when I'm surrounded by these hoes

[Outro]
They wasn't used to somebody that looks like me
(I feel tension)
Now you look at god
(Tension I feel, tension I feel)
Seeing the things I've seen, know what I'm sayin'?
(Tension I feel, tension I feel, I feel tension)
The music just come through, no matter what
(Tension I feel)
They ain't care what I looked like, they just care about the music

Navraj Singh Goraya (born November 3, 1989), popularly known as NAV, is an Indian-Canadian recording artist, record producer, and engineer from Rexdale, Ontario, Canada, a district of Toronto. His parents are both from the state of Punjab in India and are fluent in the Punjabi language; NAV himself is fluent in both English and Punjabi and practices the religion of Sikhism, the religion the majority of Punjabs practice.

Following in the footsteps of Canadian singer The Weeknd, the co-founder and leader of XO and a frequent collaborator of his, NAV has preferred to let his SoundCloud do the talking in the early stages of his career. Although going largely unnoticed at the time of its release, NAV’s first noteworthy production credit was in July 2015 when he helped co-produce Drake’s diss track towards Meek Mill, “Back to Back.”

After hearing a string of successful SoundCloud hits, including the self-produced “Myself,” in 2016, Amir “Cash” Esmailian,, the co-founder and manager of XO, reached out to NAV, giving him an opportunity to expand from the revolutionary music platform. NAV has grabbed numerous features since linking up with The Weeknd and the rest of XO, consisting of Belly, 88GLAM, and Black Atlass. His first and arguably most recognizable feature (which he also solely produced) is Travis Scott’s September 2016 song, “beibs in the trap,” from Travis' sophomore studio album, Birds in the Trap Sing McKnight.
