I'm iller than the illness that these people wish me Drake be Joshin' around but life wasn't Nickelodeon or Disney, is you kidding me? My resume is thicker than Nicki, I'm busy-busy I remember doing halftime at Jackson, Mississippi Wasn't drivin' Cadillac then, but shit still found a way to escalate quickly Wanted people to miss me, changed shit after Nipsey Took the fun away, now the fun's done Roses right now though, tell 'em to run some You don't havе to see the score to know that I won some Truе colors always come out like the sun does 'Specially when you assumin' the role of that nigga I keep my circle small so the blunt gets back quicker I just woke up and tripped on a glass slipper I guess Cinderella must've called up her own Uber I've always been able to see the depths of my own future Physic readings, corporate meetings, power lunches Private funding, hundred push-ups, hundred crunches Final touches, lemon squeezes, island breezes Press releases, moving speeches, multi-tasking Torches passing, strong attractions, forceful actions What's really cracking?
