Текст песни
Yeah, came a long way from that corner stoop
Some sunflower seeds, a bag of chips and a quart of juice
Was too knuckleheaded to call it true, so we all in boots
Black champion hoodie, stacks, hand me that fully proof
Damn, the mistakes you make when you full of youth
But time gives you wisdom like pain you feel when you pull your tooth
What makes you kill when you pull and shoot?
Can't take the guilt, so you put to use any bull excuse
I know I'm just like you, a touch spiteful
I hurt my mama just like you
I sat in front your honor and lied because I'm just like you
You know, prideful, full of revenge
A rough cycle make you clutch Bibles
Man, fuck Michael, I couldn't afford a sneaker
I bought a beeper, 666 was the code to use when you call a reaper
Kids skippin' class, you makin' threats to your daughter's teacher
Nigga that a clutch on his Jesus piece and ignored a preacher
Yeah, no more sayin' that we in hell
My man just came home, got his hands on his CDL
Took pictures of his side so his family could see his cell
The fans, they could see themselves
Let Randy just read the braille
Yeah, some revelers see me well
This world is full of snakes and devils, so we rebel
Meanwhile, your favorite rapper just scheduled a BBL
No tea to tell, we gon' mind our business, so we excel
We gon' mind our business, so we excel
23-hour lockup, one hour prayin' for mail
Unless my daughter's playin', I'm never paintin' my nails
If heaven up on the roof, then I guess the basement was hell
Oh well, I'm such an artist, these pictures, I paint 'em well
Reminiscin' on hustlin', so proud when I made a sale
Ironically, the people that feel me don't play with braille
The economy is so fucked up, niggas riskin' they self
Feel like witchcraft is present, nobody breakin' that spell
Don't come around me jokin' 'cause I ain't no Dave Chappelle
Tryna acquire enough product to break a scale
In the ocean, I never seen sharks lay up with whales
Married her oldest child and she ain't been takin' it well
They got her takin' in drugs, you pass your heart around
And feel like they takin' your love
Seen blood stain up the mud
DNA mixed with dirt, first-class flight up above, nigga
Smokin' on the strand, I got my fingers stuck
Back and forth, thinkin' how Venus helped get Serena tough
It's hard to raise a big dog if you don't feed the pups
I'm E.T. with the glow, I light up everything I touch
Racketeer influence, corrupted organizations
Y'all can Enrico charge with no statute of limitations
I deserve a statue, my face on the front of pages
Before I heard of a Mason, it was McGruff and Mason
It was Lamont and Cameron
The attitude that came with white girl never was Karen
Stingy never was Sharon
Ramadan Mubarak, As-salami alaykum
Habibi, it's good to see your face again on the battlefield
Sometimes this life feel like a Ferris wheel
A gentleman's salute to those who tarry still
Witness the testimony of those in the throes of the fire
Burnin' hearts of desire, reachin' for somethin' higher
Fallen angels livin' on the wire
And the army of the Lord singin' songs of the Messiah
I was raised in an old church where the preacher preached judgment
The Nation of Islam taught that mystery Babylon was America
And Allah had returned for the destruction of the government
For we the lost children of Israel, descendants of the covenant
Here you go again with some Muslim raps about the mothership
And how the Christ, with the permission of the Magdias, who governed it
I'm eyeball deep in this holy war and I'm lovin' it
Still ain't got nothin' for Delilahs but a hard dick and double mint
Still got nothin' but love for the jealous haters who covet it
Still got to sit with Big John and negotiate this publishin'
Wildin' out with Rory, stumblin', drunk and doublin'
Holdin' the game for ransom, the God, that's my brethren
