(Humming)
Yeah, ohh
(DaNamesLB on the record)
You know I get shit poppin'
As soon as
I walk in
They love my vibe
I'm down to ride
I put in work like
I'm clocked in
If you're real with me
Then we rockin'
If not then
Kick rocks then
Can see right away
If we don't click
If we don't vibe,
Know this ain't it
I hustle more
Than I spend
Make em dollas' or
Don't make sense (cents)
If I was broke
It'll show affect
Not everyone tryna'
Be yo friend
Watch closely
Don't shut a lens
Playing both sides
Cause' they know I'm next
When I feel down
I don't vent
Keep it moving
And don't look back
My day ones switched up
Rocking solo
Now I'm up
Now ya tryna see what's up
Not feeling yo vibe
Back up
They be like
"OG you're 2 blunt"
Tell it like it is,
I don't front
Like I had drank in my cup
Either way pour on up
My day ones switched up
Rocking solo now I'm up
Now ya tryna see what's up
Not feeling yo vibe
Back up
They be like
"OG you're 2 blunt"
Tell it like it is
I don't front
Like I had drank in my cup
Either way pour on up
From the start to end
Could you have kept it a bill
Wish I didn't have to question
If ya kept it real
Ran through a test
True colors unveiled
Could've cut me off
If that's how ya really feel
Still wish ya the best
No grudge on hold
Speak what you're really about
True to yourself
No fold
Betrayal turns these folks cold
Ain't really about the life
They intend to mold
Just be yourself
No he say
She say
All that negativity
Don't try come my way
Don't try to come my way
I've been at peace lately
She's been through it all,
But she's back on her feet
I see right through
Transparency
Part-time real
Ya can't eat by me
No, no, no
You can't eat by me
Can't bring shit
To the table
You know,
I don't count favors
But look
I still hope that you eat
But fuck with you again
It'll never repeat
My day ones switched up
Rocking solo now I'm up
Now ya tryna see what's up
Not feeling yo vibe
Back up
They be like
"OG you're 2 blunt"
Tell it like it is,
I don't front
Like I had drank in my cup
Either way pour on up
My day ones switched up
Rocking solo now I'm up
Now ya tryna see what's up
Not feeling yo vibe
Back up
They be like
"OG you're 2 blunt"
Tell it like it is,
I don't front
Like I had drank in my cup
Either way pour on up
Rockin' solo now I'm up
Now they tryna see what's up
Oh
But we don't vibe back uppp
Tell it like it is
I don't front
Mm, yeah
I hustle more than I spend
Yeah…
Watch closely
Don't shut a lens
Oh…
Playing both sides
Like she's up next
And when I feel down
I don't vent




Keep it moving
And don't look back
