Lyrics

I can't get booked up by the feds before I get booked for a show

I can't be arrested by law enforcement before having a scheduled performance.

Everything happens for a reason, yeah that's just something you gotta know

Events in life have a purpose, and it's essential to understand that.

You gotta show me you the one before I put you up in vogue

You must prove to me that you are special before gaining attention and recognition.

I don't need that shit around me, if you ain't bout a bag then go

I don't want negativity around me; if you're not focused on making money, leave.

Why the ones you think is solid always be the ones to fold

People you trust often betray you, especially those who appear reliable.

They say they never gon' let you down but for some ricks they get you rolled

People claim loyalty, but they might compromise it for personal gain.

For them racks they stab yo' back, man that shit been getting old

Some betray you for financial gain, and this behavior is becoming tiresome.

I got the biggest chance to go and get them bands the truth be told

I have a significant opportunity to earn money, and this is the undeniable truth.

They always seem to stab my back, too scared to do it to my face

People often betray me behind my back because they fear confronting me directly.

Like a disease or something, my type of talent, that's a rare case

My unique talent is rare, like a disease, and not easily understood by others.

Under pressure I won't fold, no I wouldn't even dare to break

Under pressure, I won't yield; breaking under pressure is not an option.

Be zoned out in my own world, thoughts racing, staring blank

I isolate myself in my thoughts, deep in contemplation, detached from the world.

Two words to really put me in perspective, damn great

Two words, "damn great," capture the essence of how I perceive myself.

I'm an artist with my words, just close your eyes I'll picture paint

I express my art through words, creating vivid images with my lyrics.

You don't got the motivation like I do saying you can't

You lack the motivation I have; claiming you can't is not acceptable.

I'm gon' make that milli soon, I'ma be laughing to the bank

I will achieve a million-dollar status soon and celebrate my success.

Ha, I don't need no 30, fuck a perky I'm putting work in

I don't need drugs (30) to enhance my performance; hard work is my strategy.

$20 eighths, I'm like a soldier how I'm serving

I sell $20 portions of drugs, resembling a soldier in how I conduct business.

I hate to pick and choose, both sides behind me tied not talking detergent

Choosing sides is difficult; both sides support me, metaphorically tied like detergent.

My phone DND so come and see me if it's really urgent

My phone is on "Do Not Disturb"; only urgent matters should seek my attention.

Ain't going back now, I'm back on track now, I'm chilling, earning

I won't regress; I'm on the right path, earning and relaxing.

Driver fucked up we might crash in and out the lanes we be swerving

We might face challenges, but we navigate through them, swerving in and out of lanes.

Not gon' lie, yeah, it'd be me if not give a fuck was a person

If "not giving a fuck" had a personification, it would be me.

Been cooling, no bridges burning, my lessons already learned em'

I've been calm, avoiding conflicts, and I've already learned valuable lessons.

Doing the dash we hit the alley, threw the gas over the fence

Speeding through an alley, disposing of evidence, avoiding consequences.

Aint' never followed all the rules more than a couple that I bent

I don't strictly adhere to all rules; I've bent some along the way.

Saving shit just like a goalie, to pass the ball with the assist

I'm strategic in saving things, just like a goalkeeper saving goals with an assist in mind.

Never drank wock to clear my heart but all this gas dirty my piss

I haven't used a specific drug (Wock) to numb emotions, but the lifestyle affects my well-being.

I witnessed the whole thing but when they ask, no I won't give a tip

I witnessed an event, but I won't provide information when asked.

Round the world I'm trying to see the bigger things, let's take a trip

I aspire to experience significant things globally; let's embark on a journey.

I don't got nothing else to do so I get fried, yeah I be lit

With nothing else to do, I get high, and I enjoy the feeling.

Got the smoke up in my eye, the roach done goddamn burnt my lip

Smoking has consequences; the roach burned my lip.

I can't get booked up by the feds before I get booked for a show

I can't be arrested by law enforcement before having a scheduled performance. (Repetition)

Everything happens for a reason, yeah that's just something you gotta know

Events in life have a purpose, and it's essential to understand that. (Repetition)

You gotta show me you the one before I put you up in vogue

You must prove to me that you are special before gaining attention and recognition. (Repetition)

I don't need that shit around me, if you ain't bout a bag then go

I don't want negativity around me; if you're not focused on making money, leave. (Repetition)

Why the ones you think is solid always be the ones to fold

People you trust often betray you, especially those who appear reliable. (Repetition)

They say they never gon' let you down but for some ricks they get you rolled

People claim loyalty, but they might compromise it for personal gain. (Repetition)

For them racks they stab yo' back, man that shit been getting old

Some betray you for financial gain, and this behavior is becoming tiresome. (Repetition)
