Lyrics
Yo I came from the bottom
Expressing origin from a challenging situation.
And made my way out of it all by my self
Achievement of success independently.
Plenty of people prestented they evil and I just made sure that I swerve it with stealth
Avoiding negativity and navigating through challenges.
Pour me a drink and I stir it up well
Celebrating achievements with a drink.
Celebrate 7 years straight outta jail
Celebrating seven years post-incarceration.
Did in prison, was good for my livin, I swear it preserved like a third of my health
Prison experience contributed positively to life.
Really I been in this bitch since beginning lil Ben thought he pimpin but Benny was dumb
Reflecting on past mistakes, particularly in relationships.
Hangin with dummies he thought was his buddies until all his buddies they treated him wrong
Being misled by friends.
Then he was gone
The consequences of being misled, resulting in departure.
5 in the pin with no friends it was time to find out who we are
Finding oneself during a prison term.
No disrespect to whoever probated to join in a gang but I stayed on my own
Choosing individuality over gang involvement.
General population , I was there to stay and didn’t check out of a block I was on
Commitment to general prison population.
D1 or N1 , IC or EC, My 21st birthday I spent on the yard
Reference to specific prison sections and experiences.
Call that what you want
Defying judgment about prison experiences.
Mondays or Wednesdays but always on Wednesdays I spend those with God.
Regular engagement with spirituality during imprisonment.
Funny enough
Reflecting on the irony of starting music in a church.
Right there in the Church, That was the really the first I performed for a crowd
First public performance in a church setting.
And then I !
Transition in life.
Got my money right the wrong way and now my life began to,
Improper financial choices leading to a new life phase.
I !
Alignment of time and money.
Got my time in line with my money, now my money just combine.
Success achieved through unconventional means.
All that swag that y’all jack from me, Sound like lies inside yall rhymes
Asserting originality despite imitation by others.
Truly how can yall flex on me? y’all spend all your money on lines
Critiquing others for spending recklessly on vices.
And all your time online
Highlighting the importance of offline presence.
It’s common sense so don’t get so defensive we see the way that y’all ride
Observing others' behavior and choices.
They ask why im not surprised half the guys They like , lie inside of their rhymes
Skepticism about the authenticity of others.
I guess it’s rare to be real I don’t care how you feel but I’ll never co-sign and you know..
Commitment to realness and reluctance to endorse falsehood.
I ain’t got a problem
Assertion of a lack of personal problems.
I been making plays
Success in making strategic moves.
I ain’t with the drama
Aversion to drama and preference for a peaceful life.
And I stay out the way
Avoidance of unnecessary conflicts.
I been counting dollars
Financial success through effective counting.
Accumulated commas
Accumulation of wealth.
And it is not a problem to smack you in the face.
Ready to confront challenges confidently.
That is not a problem
Reiteration of the lack of problems.
I don’t got a problem with telling a bitch she a bitch if that bitch is a bitch for a fact
Candidness in addressing problematic behavior.
I just came up on a big fuckin bag as my brother went broke so we split it in half
Sharing success with family during challenging times.
You do the math
Encouraging mathematical calculation of success.
Times it by 2 and then times it by 4 and then double it back.
Intensifying efforts to increase financial gains.
And lately I been on a mission to double my digits until every digits a rack
Determination to achieve financial milestones.
N Baby you already know
Confidence in personal success.
Nobody gone stop my shine
Defiance against hindrances to personal success.
They might try to cop my flow
Resistance to copying artistic style.
But that’ll just waste y’all time
Recognizing the futility of imitating.
Everybody got problems I know
Acknowledging universal existence of problems.
Somebody got problems like mine
Emphasizing personal struggles.
Ride the beat as I write my songs
Engaging creatively with music.
Catch a vibe, catch a vibe
Enjoying the artistic process.
And you know…
