Talk
Aminé Saba Lyrics

Can I sing for you?
Asking for permission to express oneself artistically.

Niggas lookin' worked up
People appear angry and frustrated.

I got 'em mad and now their feelings gettin' turned up
I've angered them and now their emotions are heightened.

You say you poppin', but your crowds be soundin' chirped up
You claim to be popular, but your audience is unenthusiastic.

Them crickets louder than your baby mama's first cook
The lack of response is more noticeable than bad food made by a new mother.

Nigga, get your work up
Improve your skills and put in more effort.

My dawgs with me like we in PetCo
My friends are loyal and always by my side.

I'm a OG, you a retro (ugh)
I'm experienced and relevant, while you are outdated.

The niggas hatin' on me ride the metro
Those who don't like me are less successful and have to take public transportation.

I earned so much, I'm Ernesto
I have worked hard and made a lot of money, like businessman Ernesto Bertarelli.

Been doin' this shit from the get-go
I have been doing this activity from the very beginning.

And my eyes real, real low from the petrol (true)
My eyes are drooping from smoking marijuana.

The snakes gon' hate, let the Drac' go
Those who are envious will speak negatively, but we should ignore them.

But you can't hate when my chain cost your payroll (damn)
You can't criticize me when my necklace costs more than your salary.

Pen game good and my dick good (wow)
I am both a talented rapper and sexually satisfying partner.

I really wish your bitch would
I would like to have sex with your girlfriend.

Got her ass out, she a standout (mm)
She is attractive and stands out among other women.

If she got a kid, I'm a dad now
If she has a child, I have become a father figure in their life.

TSA trip with the pat-down
I went through airport security and was searched thoroughly.

Feel like Herbo, when a nigga got them racks out
I feel like rapper G Herbo when I have a lot of money with me.

What I gotta do to go dumb?
What do I have to do to have fun and let loose?

Your girlfriend know where I'm from
Your girlfriend knows that I am from the west coast.

I'm a west coast nigga, but you already know (ooh-wee)
I am from the west coast, as you already know.

I got hunnids in my pockets and your bitch at the door
I carry a lot of cash and your girlfriend is interested in me.

I'm like DiCaprio on Wall Street
I am similar to Leonardo DiCaprio's character in the movie, focused on making money and living a lavish lifestyle.

I'ma hustle real hard 'til they off me
I will work very hard to be successful until the day I die.

I'm a wolf in the pack like I'm Lil B
I dominate in my social group, like rapper Lil B.

Nigga, you can't faze me, you crazy
You cannot hurt or defeat me, you are insane to try.

I really gotta talk this talk (yeah, say what?)
I need to speak confidently (repeating the hook).

I really gotta walk this walk (say what?)
I need to act confidently and follow through on my words (repeating the hook).

I really gotta talk my shit (true)
I need to express my opinions and beliefs without fear (repeating the hook).

I really make some calls (true, true)
I will use my connections to advance myself (repeating the hook).

I ain't here for fuckin' jokes (no way)
I am serious about my goals and aspirations.

I'm in this death I'm still livin'
I am still alive in spite of the many trials and struggles I've faced.

The perfect juxtaposition (yeah)
My life is the perfect combination of seemingly contradictory elements.

Throw on my joggers and Jordans
I put on my comfortable clothes and sneakers.

My shorty hold me up like Jordan and Pippen
My girlfriend supports me like famous basketball players Michael Jordan and Scottie Pippen.

The flu game, I flew over continents just losin' scholarships
I had to overcome many obstacles and setbacks, like Michael Jordan's famous game in the NBA Finals despite being sick.

They was just tryna get rid of us niggas
Those in authority were attempting to discriminate against us.

I just say, "Screw 'em" like fill ups with with us
I ignore their negativity and keep moving forward.

Philanthropy, now I peed in a cup
Despite being charitable, I still get drug tested.

For my niggas who knew they were reekin' of drugs
Shoutout to my friends who were also caught with drugs.

And the system for you down and not to come up
The system is designed to keep us from succeeding.

Nigga gon' shoot down your dream for the club
Others will bring you down and discourage your aspirations.

Still ain't gettin' in (in), still aimin' to win
Despite not yet reaching my goals, I am still striving to succeed.

I had to move out, I still can't with the fam (yeah)
I had to leave home, but I still have difficulties with my family.

Her shit be movin', I still can't really dance
She dances well, but I still struggle with my rhythm.

I had to lose all that shit I was taught
I had to unlearn certain things I believed were true.

I had to duke it out, I had to fault
I had to fight and take responsibility for my actions.

I had to fight 'cause I don't wanna talk
I will take actions instead of just talking about my plans.
