Okay they don’t got what it take to win
I been blowing up but I’m staying with my kin
Same people hated now they
Tryna be my friends
They just want some clout shawty
Come and get your mans
Keep it on the low just like an 808
I done seen too many people pay for plays
That ain’t in my blood I swear I made a way
Need a private jet I don’t want layaways
That’s right this all I wanted all my life

Couple for the show yeah

I been rolling purp up all day
I ain’t never gave a fuck what a label say
Be my own boss, what the games missing
Nothing good coming easy I was really sipping
Hard liquor, hard thoughts I was in my head
I ain’t sitting on the charts
But I’m counting bread found my own lane
Like a Range Rover
You in the Buick game over I’m a chain smoker
No EDM, I be seeing M’s
Baby girl down in Florida push the blue BM
They like who is him? New license plate
Copped the newest Benz, man life is great
Living like a star, buying out the bar
I been going hard, like there’s no tomorrow
No there’s plenty in him
Got lamp city in them




They with the syllabuses, I’m
With the lyricists, you know
