I'm not inna box
I'm not inna box
I'm not inna
Inna box I'm not inna box
I'm not inna
Not inna box
I'm not inna box
I'm not inna
I'm not inna box
I'm not inna box
I'm not inna
I woke up starving like Marvin
I broke bread before I yawned
I started the storm before the calm
The goal is to beat the alarm
Look at these prophecies on my arm
Led me straight through the enemies camp without harm
Good luck requires charm
Clean up requires the brawn
They don't even know the lies
consistency is the con
This is my mind my house and my lawn
These are my rules my tools and my law
Either get correct right here or hit pause
You don't see the king or queen with no pawns
I manifest this with the authority of God
So we ready set go whether you ready or not
overwhelm the situation by giving it all I got
Masterpiece on the beat you out that on repeat and bust a block
I'm not
I'm not inna box
I'm not inna box
I'm not inna
Inna box I'm not inna box
I'm not inna
Not inna box
I'm not inna box
I'm not inna
I'm not inna box
I'm not inna box
I'm not inna
I want it
They're reaching for lifelines
I'm on it
But it's been a lifetime
I'm wanted
For taking back what's mine
Be honest
We probably makin em nervous right
They wanna know if they heard us right
If Cole cook it up I'll serve it right right
Big dawg don't move with the herd advice
Step in the paint and get serviced I
Never had a problem with sacrifice why
There's always a consequence when you cook up
Paintings gon fall when the house gets shook up
I might fall face forward but still look up
Cause baby this ain't where we from
This where they took us
My momma said I got good genes not good luck
My daddy said keep ya nose clean and ya head up
My momma said what goes around comes back around
My daddy said that mean when you swing that you better duck
Ding ding step in the ring and get rocked
You can't change the time that's on my watch
Look how they cheer for our pain maybe we're not
Seeing the big picture from inside the box
I'm not inna box
I'm not inna box
I'm not inna
Inna box I'm not inna box
I'm not inna
Not inna box
I'm not inna box
I'm not inna
I'm not inna box
I'm not inna box
I'm not inna
Now shake that thang like it's free boo
Shake that thang for peace
I got a whole ring on and a wifey at home so don't shake nothin for me
Yeah, yeah
Shake that thang like it's free boo
Shake that thang for peace
I got a whole ring on and a wifey at home so don't shake nothin for me
Don't it feel good
Don't it feel good
Don't it feel good Don't it feel good
When you know you on one and they respect it
When you cross a playa hatta off ya checklist
Feel like a little weight on ya necklace
Don't it feel good
Don't it feel good
When they hear the nonsense and they reject it
When you know you got a whole squad to step wit
When they figure out exactly who to mess wit
Don't it feel good
Don't it feel good
How ya really feel




Don't it feel good
Don't it feel good
