A-Reece Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Six plus
Now a young nigga front row
A-list
Snot nosed niggas took shots
I donโt even see the gun smoke
Painless
Heart still cold like South Pole
Too late to go back to the old days
They used to be my dawgs
Now they all strays
Too far to go back to the broke days
Took us from the bottom now we all straight
Young, black, rich and famous
Stick around long enough around me
You might start hating
No favours
More paper
When I drop itโs closed caskets
Cold cases
No statements
Niggas lose sleep tryna match this greatness
How else could I say this
When I was 17 I was better than your favourites
I was 19 doing sold out stages
Came out the label
Thought I wouldnโt make it
Now Iโm 25 and I might sign kaydence
Dropped a mixtape then it got nominated
If I donโt take it
the summerโs still mine for the taking
Front row
Six plus
Now a young nigga front row
A-list
Snot nosed niggas took shots
I donโt even see the gun smoke
Painless,
Heart still cold like South Pole
Niggas get heinous
Too late to go back to the old days
They used to be my dawgs
Now they all strays
