Young Man
E-paksa Lyrics

5’8 big dude, ion really think you want these issues
I'm not someone you want to mess with, even though I'm not that tall.

Ran down, gun down, yeah I used to wake up to them gun sounds
I grew up in a rough area where gun violence was a common occurrence.

Young man, Young man
I'm still young and figuring things out.

Mama had to treat like a grown man
My mother had to raise me to be responsible and mature beyond my years.

Young man, young man, now I’m chasing paper, like a grown man
Now I am focused on making money and taking care of myself, like a responsible adult.

Now when they see me they go ham
People are excited and impressed by my success.

I’m in the studio, cooking like Rosanne
I spend a lot of time working on my music and perfecting my craft.

I got a bitch on my left and my right hand
I have two women with me, one on either side.

I just be scoring and going, like got damn
I am successful and focused on making progress every day.

I’m at the top and I’m chillin like
I am successful now and able to relax and enjoy my accomplishments.

Woo
Expressing excitement and satisfaction.

Who gon stop me, I know it’s not you
I am confident in my own abilities to succeed and not worried about others stopping me.

I’m in that kitty, she screaming like ooou
I am with a woman and she is enjoying herself with me.

My diamonds cold, I gotta I’ll achoo, ya
My jewelry is high quality and flashy, making others jealous.

Blessings, on blessing , on blessing, my granny sending them blessings from heaven
I am grateful for the good things in my life and appreciate the support of my grandmother, even after her passing.

OK I see you, I’m scoring like Kevin
I am doing well and succeeding, like basketball player Kevin Durant.

Like shout out to Spaz I know you was stepping
Acknowledging a friend who has passed away.

Shout out to god he threw me some lessons
Acknowledging the role that faith plays in his life.

I’m in the field, you throw it, I catch it
I am ready and able to take on whatever challenges come my way.

I got these hunnies on me and these hunnids on me, my pockets be blue, ya they cripping ,damn
I am wealthy and surrounded by beautiful women.

I gotta go, I gotta go
Feeling impatient or restless.

Envy a nigga, I need me a pole
Feeling threatened by others and wanting protection.

I got this bitch that I even don’t know
Referring to a woman he is involved with but does not know well.

Moved to the south, but Iowa home
Living in the southern US now, but still considers Iowa home.

Shout out to Brady, he keeping it cool
Acknowledging a friend who remains calm and collected.

I knew my dude, since middle of school
Having a long-standing friendship with someone from childhood.

Now I be working to get us some jewels
Focused on making money and providing for himself and his friends.

Might move out to Cali, I’m loving the move
Considering relocating to California and excited about the possibility.

Back on that ape shit, I just be smoking that gas on gas, I might be Jamaican
Returning to a more wild, carefree lifestyle and enjoying marijuana use.

No I’m not Haitian, but I be bopping and shit, cut it up like I’m Jason
Getting into the music and dancing in a fun, energetic way.

My family happy, I’m chasing bag,
Earning money and providing for his family makes him happy.

Came from that struggle, I came from the rags
Started from humble beginnings but worked hard to get where he is now.

Now I need Louis and Gucci on me
Wants to show off his wealth and success with high-end clothing brands.

Like I got this talent, I'm taxing a fee
Recognizing his own value and worth and charging for his talent.

Pull up in Audi, or pull up in Jag
Driving nice, expensive cars to show off his success.

I mixed the Gucci and Fendi with Rafs
Wearing multiple luxury brands together to show off his high-end fashion style.

I was born like a beast, I was born in lab
Feeling strong and fierce, like he was created in a laboratory.

See a red light, I might floor on the gas
Taking risks and driving fast and recklessly.

I hit up Weston when I need some hoes, but she need to suck me up when I’m on the road
Contacting someone when he is looking for women, but expecting certain sexual acts in return.

I’m with my guys, we T’d to the bone when I need some help they ready to go
Surrounded by loyal friends who will help him when he needs it.

I been going and going and going
Working hard and not stopping or slowing down.

5’8 big dude, ion really think you want these issues
Asserting his confidence and strength despite not being very tall.

Ran down, gun down, yeah I used to wake up to them gun sounds
Reminiscing about the violence and danger of the neighborhood he grew up in.

Young man, Young man
Feeling youthful and full of potential.

Mama had to treat like a grown man
Being raised with a lot of responsibility and maturity by his mother.

Young man, young man, now I’m chasing paper, like a grown man
Growing up and focusing on making money and taking care of himself like an adult.
