Lyrics
Check my phone see my name in a mention
Checking phone and noticing being mentioned or tagged
You do the most just to get my attention
Someone making significant efforts to gain attention
I'm a gangster ain't nobody checking
Asserting a tough, gangster persona
Tell that lil boy imma catch him and stretch him
Threatening to confront and harm a younger person
From a youngin I knew I was special
Feeling unique and special from a young age
I had them hoes in the back of a rental woah
Having romantic encounters in the back of a rental car
Couple racks I done spent on my denim woah
Spending a significant amount of money on clothing
I got way too much pain and these problems
Expressing emotional pain and dealing with problems
They know I'm loyal I spin for my partners
Being known for loyalty and supporting friends
He showed me hate but I love him regardless
Experiencing hate but maintaining love regardless
Studio trapping I was at my darkest
Engaging in music creation during challenging times
No one around me I'm talking to logic
Isolation and seeking advice or guidance from logic
No one around me hi-tec and I nodded
Using drugs (hi-tec) to cope with the absence of others
Nothing to eat I had nowhere to stay I was deep in the projects
Facing extreme poverty and homelessness in the projects
All my friends trapping out of apartments
Friends involved in illegal activities in apartments
Mama told me go back to your roots
Mother advising to reconnect with cultural roots
Mama don't you believe in me
Expressing doubt in mother's belief in personal success
Broke my (leg) I quit soccer and school
Quitting soccer and school due to a broken leg
We was focused on BNE's (being knees)
Focus on making money (BNE's) instead of education
Why she tell me that she wouldn't leave
Revealing betrayal in a relationship
She was cheating yeah I couldn't even breathe
Experiencing emotional pain and suffocation in a cheating relationship
Free my uncle he was pushing dem keys
Wishing for the freedom of an incarcerated family member
In the kitchen we was pushing dem p's
Engaging in drug trafficking in the kitchen
Before gunna I was pushing p
Engaging in drug dealing before becoming successful
I don't give a fuck no I don't give a fuck throw dirt on my name
Indifference to rumors and criticism
Know a couple youngings tryna slide I know they praying that it rain
Awareness of potential threats and danger from others
Didnt grow up with a lot.
Growing up with limited resources
Foreign coupe how I got that shit parked up
Owning a foreign car as a symbol of success
Watch they pops die then they spark up
Witnessing the death of a father figure and resorting to substance use
Whole lotta battle scars left me marked up
Bearing emotional and physical scars from life experiences
Check my phone see my name in a mention
Repetition of the earlier mention of being noticed on the phone
You do the most just to get my attention
Repetition of someone trying hard to gain attention
I'm a gangster ain't nobody checking
Reiteration of a tough, unapproachable demeanor
Tell that lil boy imma catch him and stretch him
Repeating the threat to confront and harm a younger person
From a youngin I knew I was special
Reaffirming a sense of uniqueness and specialness
I had them hoes in the back of a rental woah
Reiteration of romantic encounters in a rental car
Couple racks I done spent on my denim woah
Repetition of spending a significant amount on clothing
I got way too much pain and these problems
Reiteration of experiencing intense emotional pain and problems
