Well, let 'em catch me when I fall
so I gotta take it higher, uh
See the ice around my neck and see me
walkin' through the fire, uh
So many changed on me
why'd I put up with these chains on me?
I ain't never had no handout, now they wanna take from me
No weapon for no need, they will not prosper
They want me six-feet deep, been through the fire
They want my soul to keep, it will not prosper
They want my soul to keep, mm, hold on (Yo)

I know the truth hurts
but I will never keep it from me (No)
There wouldn't have to be a war if someonе reasoned with we
But to bе only started beefin' once suspicious of me (Turn)
I'm on call with a night, I have to feel myself bleed (Argh)
Don't ask how me how we got this different beef (Turn up)
I had to poke up— shh
they wouldn't give a machine (Turn up, turn up)
I could've just beat a corn and have him
ripped down the street
I should've known down the line
that they would've team up from me (Turn)
And I mean literally
'cah that's what happened
'til they poked up MJ (Told me turn)
He ain't ris' up since, I see him ris' up for me
The bros gonna know better for some kid called GP
And then Kobe died
and then they're pointin' fingers at me (Argh)
I'lI still make somethin' sleep
My shorty say my smile's beautiful
she don't know I'm out with these different teeth (Boy)
We had to share the same sorrows
but don't share the same morals
if I wasn't lit, they won't be pointin' triggers at me

Well, let 'em catch me when I fall
so I gotta take it higher, uh
See the ice around my neck
and see me walkin' through the fire, uh
So many changed on me
why'd I put up with these chains on me?
I ain't ever had no handout, now they wanna take from me
No weapon for no need, they will not prosper
They want me six-feet deep, been through the fire
They want my soul to keep, it will not prosper
They want my soul to keep, mm, hold on

Try spend a day in my shoes (Ah)
I believe in miracles, I'm livin' proof
They wanna see you lose when you got shit to lose
Really had trident comin' in my room
And put me in the back of the van
with a dyke, like I'm Liverpool
My box of shorts had to fit the douche
Now Louis brim, what they think?
That's gonna fit me through the fittin' room?
All this music and road been gettin' difficult
How am I eatin' lobster while my niggas
eatin' prison food? (Free up, free up)
In two months, I'm losin' four whole different shoes (Argh)
Same time discussin' millions in a Zoom (Turn)
I got my head in my head in my hands, in my living room
How am I gonna win this war? Success is gonna kill them all

Well, let 'em catch me when I fall
so I gotta take it higher, uh
See the ice around my neck
and see me walkin' through the fire, uh
So many changed on me
why'd I put up with these chains on me?
I ain't ever had no handout, now they wanna take from me
No weapon for no need, they will not prosper
They want me six-feet deep, been through the fire
They want my soul to keep, it will not prosper
They want my soul to keep, mm, hold on
