Uh Give a fuck if yo' pockets low, we been living lowkey Wonder how we was popping bottles, this far below the Poverty line, wasn't no avocados but toast was on me Early, would break fast was hopping gates, would do the same to pearly Mistakes add up, some niggas could name the police Some niggas always need somebody else name on the lease Some of us struggling to find inner peace, I'm still fighting a beast I show love, I definitely want it requited at least The odds stackеd against shorty and despite it she prеach While I'm smoking my roach Nigga, been treehugging, tryna widen my reach More vitamin E Really tryna widen my scope They tryna tell me My freedom abides in a vote That died on a boat Son of every water I choke Most times I get dry before I speak I die before I spoke I cry when I see But, never ask why 'cause I know They give a fuck if you fly, we supposed to fly or sell dope We supposed to give them the keys so they can get the door Still had to kick in the door just to get in the door When he was five and we gon' call the boy a thug for the rest of his life
Yeah, you know I walk through Everything they taught me Still feeling groggy Heavy on the caffeine in my coffee, no Joffrey I ain't tiptoeing, that's too costly I ain't tiptoeing, that's too costly Folk don't get to see themselves too often Only look at mirrors through the smoke Everything go rogue Everything's glossy
I fear no evil at all I pray my closest don't fold, I know somebody gon' fall Fuck saving face, I can't keep changing pace to stay up with y'all This ain't a race see niggas running in place to chase waterfalls I can relate, I can't erase the times when I dropped the ball Was tryna handle it all, I'm no Kyrie in the least I had to learn it the harder way, niggas pennies decrease A couple niggas deceased, I watched some niggas retreat You ever had a peace treaty with niggas you still don't fuck with? I started turning my cheek I had to turn a new leaf on niggas smoking swisher sweets Was on them backwoods for some weeks Then I got straight to the paper, my paper straight as a crease Got paperweights for receipts Got labelmates we been scammed by the same man, we don't speak The neighbors hate, we don't speak Don't come to preaching, just practice whatever you was gon' preach Scratch my back if you reach Gotta match my joint if you smoking These niggas will do you like leeches I'm seeing ghosts like it's Bleach I brought my sand to a fire hydrant, created a beach I put my soul in these beats
Yeah, you know I walk through Everything they taught me Still feeling groggy Heavy on the caffeine in my coffee, no Joffrey I ain't tiptoeing, that's too costly I ain't tiptoeing, that's too costly
