Lyrics

Yeah, yeah, yeah

Expressing affirmation or agreement


What they gon' do if I stop rappin', find another passion?

Contemplating the consequences if the artist were to cease rapping, wondering if they would pursue another interest or calling

I'm tryna put this codeine down and find another habit

Struggling to move away from consuming codeine and seeking to adopt a different habit or lifestyle

The only ones changin' the ones that I didn't imagine

The only changes happening are those that were unforeseen or unexpected

Don't play with this, it's dangerous, I promise I'm not just a rapper

Emphasizing the seriousness of the artist's persona beyond being solely a rapper

Nigga, I rock designer clothes like this shit free

Wearing expensive designer clothing as if it comes effortlessly or is readily available

I buy diamonds every month like this shit cheap

Purchasing diamonds frequently, almost as if they are inexpensive

They drop, they shake the ground, you know these teals heavy

Referring to heavy and valuable teal-colored diamonds

I land in LA, then I get some lean from Petty

Upon arriving in Los Angeles, acquiring lean (a form of cough syrup containing codeine) from someone called Petty


Nigga, it wasn't gangster if you didn't regret it

Actions or situations aren't truly considered 'gangster' if there isn't subsequent regret

Pull up Lamb' truck, came from a box Chevy

Arriving in a luxurious Lamborghini truck after coming from a Chevrolet box-style car

7.62s, you know them shots deadly

Referring to the caliber of bullets, indicating their lethal impact

In New Orleans, we be strapped, you better ask Teddy

Stating the necessity for being armed in New Orleans and advising to inquire from Teddy for confirmation

Up in Houston with them rockets like I'm Patrick Beverly

Being in Houston associated with the Rockets basketball team, similar to Patrick Beverly, a former player

I had enough of them apologies, I don't accept 'em

Expressing a lack of willingness to accept apologies

Lil E gone, but Lil E livin' in my heart forever

Remembering someone named Lil E who is deceased but continues to live in the artist's heart

I said a prayer today like, "God, help me fight these devils"

Praying for divine assistance in combating personal demons before advancing to another stage in life

Like he attackin' me before I hit another level

Feeling attacked by challenges before achieving personal growth or progress

Federales want my niggas, I hope we dodge the system

Hoping to evade law enforcement, wishing for protection for acquaintances involved in illegal activities

Forgive the drug dealers, forgive the shot senders

Asking for forgiveness for drug dealers, individuals who shoot others, and genuine individuals involved in wrongdoing

Forgive the pot whippers, forgive the real niggas

Seeking forgiveness for those genuinely engaged in illegal activities


'Cause I know one thing, pain gon' flow

Acknowledging the persistence of pain and suffering

But I know one day, sun will show

Believing that eventually, positive change or improvement will come

And I know one day, rain will go

Realizing that difficult times will eventually pass

And I will turn my ocean gold

Expressing the desire to turn the hardships and challenges into something valuable or precious

But if not, then we alright, yeah, yeah

Accepting that if the desired positive transformation doesn't happen, things will still be acceptable

Then the world would be so nice

Imagining a world that would be pleasant if the transformation occurs

Then it'd be me here with nobody else

Envisioning being alone without anyone else around

So somebody should give me some help

Expressing the need for assistance or support from someone


What they gon' do if I stop rappin', find another passion?

Reiterating the contemplation about pursuing a different passion if ceasing to rap

I'm tryna put this codeine down and find another habit

Striving to abandon the use of codeine and find a different habit

The only ones changin' the ones that I didn't imagine

Emphasizing again that the only changes occurring are those unexpected or unforeseen

Don't play with this, it's dangerous, I promise I'm not just a rapper

Reaffirming the seriousness of the artist's persona beyond being just a rapper

Nigga, I rock designer clothes like this shit free

Wearing expensive designer clothing as if it comes effortlessly or is readily available

I buy diamonds every month like this shit cheap

Purchasing diamonds frequently, almost as if they are inexpensive

They drop, they shake the ground, you know these teals heavy

Referring to heavy and valuable teal-colored diamonds

I land in LA, then I get some lean from Petty

Upon arriving in Los Angeles, acquiring lean (a form of cough syrup containing codeine) from someone called Petty


'Cause I know one thing, pain gon' flow

Reiteration of the persistence of pain and suffering

But I know one day, sun will show

Believing that eventually, positive change or improvement will come

And I know one day, rain will go

Realizing that difficult times will eventually pass

And I will turn my ocean gold

Expressing the desire to turn the hardships and challenges into something valuable or precious
