Cocaine numbers off all green bricks Coltraine, hendrix Call that gas when it mix Don’t let that boy trip Drop missiles Never miss Never celibate Still don’t have a fuck to give Can’t give a bitch nada, Not Adam with my ribs That’s all mine slap some slaw on that shit Country boy in city limits with a .556 Fuck a diss Approach at your own risk Tisk tisk, You in trouble We up close like a hubble I’m a visual learner Large plant burner So many cards and accounts, Hire an accountant, to account for my earnings On this journey, Can’t let it end any time soon Approach like a monsoon Big wave dripping Been made different That’s my right hand- and he switchblade grippin’ (My Dawgz in the building, The opps all in they feelings On a higher calling, Don’t call if it ain’t bussiness Be a goner- I ain’t trippin’ The way she on it- No way I’m not tippin’) x2 Make a quitter out a diva Started wearing condoms- Cause I can’t catch that fever Lemon zest on a Caesar Trying to keep my life neat, Produce my own tracks, I can’t rap over type beats I don’t know another soul like me- With respect, do you- Music now a days, Can’t tell, Whose who The truth is I can’t complain- It gives the real a lane to shine through in the game, Winter on its way, The hunger is insane Never been a hero- Always rather be Bain Than Bruce Wayne Rich folk lack class See how they act- For more bank in the stash And that’s just that Could snap your neck from your back, With one slap But I’m a legal business owner, So I gotta keep my composure in tact And stay on track It’s bigger than me (My Dawgz in the building, The opps all in they feelings On a higher calling, Don’t call if it ain’t bussiness Be a goner- I ain’t trippin’ The way she on it- No way I’m not tippin’) x2 Try to box me out, You don’t want the gloves Want what they can get, Capitalize off the buzz Want my life to live, Could never carry it like he does It’s been curtains, What you’re doing not working I am the culture- That’s for certain This mine now Lemme find out You’re throwing shade, Tryna stain my rep To promote yourself to that next step, You’re a boy not a man And won’t stand a chance Do your little dance, Make sweet with it If that fire in your chest extinguished I re lit it Like I said, This my world And I’m leaving with it On a streak Every week a gig, Take me further from the bricks, Curious what there is to get On the other side Take a summer drive just to cool Feeling untouchable (My Dawgz in the building, The opps all in they feelings On a higher calling, Don’t call if it ain’t bussiness Be a goner- I ain’t trippin’ The way she on it- No way I’m not tippin’) x2

Gratitude for pain stake, Made me great, Not saving face, I’m right here Ahead of the game, Light years Your type weird, Fight fair? Nah, fuck that That’s how you get your shit bucked back, Six deep, I throw my crutch at- Cut cash with cats Where if I need a meal/ it’s provided fast Never in the feels, Cause shit get real/ Deadly trio, Out of town mi amigos call me Rico, Numbers in geek mode/ Came from illegals, that had meet goals, My blood line a cheat code- Can’t drink slow, Count money, I need mo- Living the dream, What would I sleep fo- Mijo, take a seat/ Only at your birth, do you get cake for free, [In a game where you can’t take leave- It get deep, (Take it from me) It’s not a game, miss it all if you sleep- Things I dreamed, (you wouldn’t believe)] Nothing paralleled, My thoughts excelled, Never thought to fail- At the range poppin’ shells- Never felt a shortage when I’m recording, I can’t help, What I hear’s not important, Cross the border hit up Tim Hortons- And make the play that made my day, Back on the interstate, Innovate, How’s it taste, When I’m in your face, Before you reply, I’ll be miles away I am not pro violence, but I won’t go silent, The pressure been piling Measures we take, Separate us from the fake The decision’s been made The doc will have you one incision too late Pick out a crate tryna pick off my plate/ Chase estate, And stability, Get marked if you’re grilling me, Imagine the epitome, Something like a methadone hit, Feel a lift like I’m stepping on bricks Looking back like damn, life’s been a trip Never panicked, I picked a play and planned it, Pistol play we’re quick to manage, Without em, could still cause damage, Hungry had me looking famished, Still both feet planted where I’m standing, Heavy weight like a mammoth, The style’s been branded, Money, power and respect I demand it [In a game where you can’t take leave- It get deep, (Take it from me) It’s not a game, miss it all if you sleep- Things I dreamed, (you wouldn’t believe)]
