K.i.f.o.t.h. Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Remember them nights use to post at the store
Deep in these streets back to back tryna score
They want some money well I want it more
Ain’t finna stop cause my time is on go
Lil cuz that’s my blood but he rep GD Folks
Down wit the 40 was cracked like a yolk
Learned the whole game taught my brothers the ropes
Run me your pockets boy this ain’t a joke
Came wit the ski he ain’t see my approach
Came with a pole and I left with his pole
Ran to a opp he got smoked like some dro
Where he’s at? Up high Ooo there he go
One shot two shot? Ooo idk
Neck shot face shoot he on the floor
Rushed with a Tommy he turned to a ghost
Go hit a play then I brought it back home
Look at my wrist I just copped a 2-tone
Birds steady chirping can’t answer the phone
I pray to god that I make it home
Cuz I know niggas that wanna see me gone
I know some niggas don’t wanna see me on
The hood respect me just like carleon
Want you a body can’t talk on the phone
Unless it’s about bag cause I get it gone
My pockets heavy this shit is on stone
She got credit can’t leave her a loan (alone)
How you gone hate and your ass is a clone
Look in the mirror you mad you alone
It’s all fun and games til a nigga get fried
How you beef when you ain’t got no ties
You say you real man that shit was a lie
You hitting plays but you ain’t getting by
He know how to skate but he ain’t tryna slide
He know how to drive but he ain’t tryna ride
He know how to steal but he ain’t tryna rob
He know how to live but he ain’t tryna die
Came in the club and my guest was the Glock
Somebody try me they all getting shot
Dj don’t spin me then he getting popped
Ain’t finna play put the stick in box
Bitch I’m the Gunna I’m feeling real hot
Came with the bands And I came with the knot
Still hitting plays and I’m still hitting drops
Now I ride on a beat use to beat out the pot
Came in the club and my guest was the Glock
Somebody try me they all getting shot
Dj don’t spin me then he getting popped
Ain’t finna play put the stick in box
Bitch I’m the Gunna I’m feeling real hot
Came with the bands And I came with the knot
Still hitting plays and I’m still hitting drops
Now I ride on a beat use to beat out the pot
Lil cuz that’s my blood but he rep GD Folks
Down wit the 40 was cracked like a yolk
Learned the whole game taught my brothers the ropes
Run me your pockets boy this ain’t a joke
Came wit the ski he ain’t see my approach
Came with a pole and I left with his pole
Ran to a opp he got smoked like some dro
Where he’s at? Up high Ooo there he go
One shot two shot ? Ooo idk
Neck shot face shoot he on the floor
Rushed with a tommy he turned to a ghost
Go hit a play then i brought it back home
Look at my wrist I just copped a 2-tone
Birds steady chirping can’t answer the phone




I pray to god that I make it home
Cuz I know niggas that wanna see me gone
