Gotti Lyrics

Jabari on the beat
The song was produced by Jabari and this line serves as an introduction to the track.

Just quit seeking validation from the hoes that’s near me
Stop relying on the approval of women who are in close proximity to me.

Shutter vision, swear if I could only see you clearly
I have trouble seeing you clearly, it's like my vision is blurry.

This’d be a different story, I’m not even steering
If I could see you clearly, things would be different. However, I'm not even in control of where things are going.

You said you would die before me, I don’t wanna hear it
I don't want to hear empty promises, especially ones that promise loyalty unto death.

My bars went up when your guard went up, I just needed clearance
My creativity flourished when you were being cautious, I just needed approval from you.

Talked to bro for an hour to find out he’s a mirror
After speaking to my brother for an hour, I realized that he is a reflection of myself.

Whole gang gon' get 911s and pairs of Amiri
My entire gang is going to have luxury cars and expensive designer jeans.

Whole time I think shorty on to me, she just couldn’t hear me
The whole time I thought the girl was aware of my intentions, but she simply didn't notice.

This not the time to be open with everybody really
Right now, I don't think it's wise to be vulnerable and share my feelings with everyone.

I’m not so shocked 'bout y’all feelings, y’all really used to feel me
I'm not surprised by the way people feel about me, they used to like me a lot.

My junky bruddas go dummy if OJ get to spilling
My drug-addicted friends go crazy if someone starts talking too much about sensitive topics.

So, they're the same ones I keep in mind when I’m off a pilly
When I'm under the influence of drugs, I think of my unstable friends and how they would react to certain situations.

Mathematician, 2 times 30, I’m downin' 60
I'm a math whiz, so I know that 2 times 30 equals 60.

I feel untouchable, trust it, you gon' need more to kill me
I feel invincible, you'll need more than what you have to defeat me.

If I’m not trusted, then say that, don’t keep that talk concealed in
If you don't trust me, say it plainly instead of hiding your feelings.

If you ain’t love me, don’t say that, I’ll fill that void with feelings
Don't say you don't love me, because I will try to fill that emotional void with other feelings.

Nights was long in those parking lots hoping no one spot us
We spent long nights in parking lots, hoping that we wouldn't be caught doing something we shouldn't be doing.

This not even the hardest part, thankfully no one caught us
This wasn't even the most difficult part, fortunately we didn't get caught in the act.

It was more than just chasing dreams, we forgot the outcome
We were doing more than just trying to achieve our dreams, we lost sight of the final goal.

They just want the best for me when this was never 'bout 'em
People want what's best for me, but their motives have nothing to do with me.

But, I’m so used to that, so I don’t say a word
I'm accustomed to people pretending to have my best interests at heart, so I don't say anything.

Love been thrown around loosely, I ain’t gon' say it first
People use the word 'love' very lightly, I'm not going to be the first to say it.

It’s always filler conversation, fill me in for sure
Our conversations are always empty, tell me what's really going on.

It’s always “how you been?”, never “we should've made it work”
Our conversations are always about our current state, never about addressing past issues.

We should've made it work
We should have worked harder to make things better between us, but we didn't.
