Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I take my time
I’m in my own lane

I got my own plate
My old girlfriend left cause I couldn't take her on a date
Fuck safe I wanna be great

I spend my last dime on it
I commit a crime for it
That's on my life for me
That’s on my life

Oh yeah
Yeah I will just go in
Let’s go yeah
If someone cruising squeeze the trigger
Like I don’t give a fuck I pull up my zipper
All I’m tryna do is blow up your speakers
Some away I’m tryna make me some clippers
I know a lot of you doubted a nigga
Kick a verse that will make you reconsider
Cause I'm way way way juice'd up
This shit got me feeling goose bumps
Crew type not loose ones
Yeah we popping off no shoot guns
They say my bars fit like snickers
I'm a second to gold like silver

Can’t afford to lose focus while I take what's mine no
