Lyrics
No pickup lines just conversation baby
No pickup lines, just engaging in conversation, baby
I know I been distant lately
Acknowledging recent emotional distance
Got some game up out the 80s
Drawing on wisdom from the 80s
Cant let opposition play me
Not letting opposition manipulate or control
Pay no mind for what don’t pay me
Ignoring things that don't bring financial gain
Hindsight vision never hazy
Having clear hindsight, no unclear vision
Attention only goes to that Fa sho, no time for maybe
Attention is only given to certainty, no time for uncertainty
I know I been underrated
Aware of being underrated
Haters never will debate it
Refusing to engage with haters
All I speak and live wit it is nothing but truth, and I’m okay wit
Living and speaking the truth unapologetically
Small circles lookin like a pinky ring, ‘cause I been jaded
Having a small, trusted circle due to past experiences
Prefer my thoughts than small talk, an understatement
Preferencing deep thoughts over superficial small talk
Archaeologists a bone to pick
Ready to confront issues, like an archaeologist with a bone to pick
If anybody owe me shit
Expecting others to fulfill their obligations
I pay for a lesson, get
Willing to pay for lessons with karma and interest
Karma wit some interest
Choosing not to associate with those who wronged him
And won’t fuck wit em, it’s a lien up on relationships
Planned to initiate a major change in life
I’m bout to open escrow on a foreclosed
Destroying the old to build something new
Burn it down then build a new home
Refusing to live in the past
Them niggas that was livin there was squattin
Rejecting associations with people who were just taking up space
Want no faults up in the structure
Avoiding flaws in personal growth
Can get wit that then fuck ya
If someone can't align with this perspective, they're disregarded
Don’t know Metroboomin, but if Johnny don’t trust ya
A reference to "Don't trust anyone" - caution in relationships
Don’t put the two on the ten
Repeated emphasis on not settling for mediocrity or compromise
Don’t put the two on the ten
-Don’t put the two on the ten
-Don’t put the two on the ten
-Don’t put the two on the ten
-Don’t put the two on the ten
-Don’t put the two on the ten
-Don’t put the two on the ten
-Everybody feel a way
Acknowledging that everyone feels some type of way
I just get away
Choosing to distance oneself from negativity
Custom life don’t come wit lay-away
Emphasizing a high-end lifestyle without compromise
Manifest, meditate I just might pray
Engaging in manifestation and meditation, possibly spiritual practices
For those who trespass, May they see the day
Hoping those who wronged him find redemption
Cus nighttime be active and streets don’t play
Being cautious during active nighttime situations
Watch what you speakin the words you say
Highlighting the importance of words and their impact
Might cash more than what you got in yo wallet
Having more substance than apparent wealth
Same number since 10th grade but yo ass can’t call it
Consistency in personal identity despite external changes
Just for my relly’s, my real ones, my dawgs
Dedicating success to genuine relationships
Tryna make our Mama’s proud, don’t need applause
Striving for personal achievements without seeking external validation
They wasn’t in the bleachers when we was tryna ball
Recognizing those who were absent during struggles
And varsity was cuttin Jordan, we stand, don’t fall
Overcoming challenges, standing tall
For what y’all believe in - this no bad religion
Believing in personal values, not following blindly
I just look within and I see God, it’s givin
Finding a connection with a higher power within
It’s been a long journey put the world up on my shoulders
Having endured a challenging journey
Vibration too high, we don’t get no lower
Maintaining a positive and elevated mindset
Don’t put the two on the ten
Reiterating the refusal to settle for less, maintaining high standards
Don’t put the two on the ten
-Don’t put the two on the ten
-Don’t put the two on the ten
-Don’t put the two on the ten
-Don’t put the two on the ten
-Don’t put the two on the ten
-Don’t put the two on the ten
Final emphasis on not compromising or settling
