Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I feel safer in my city in a black hoodie
Don't know how I know you
We ain't that goodie
Solo off the jump im coming back wit it
That's Kriss Kross Larry Bird
Off the rack wit it
I just spent a cool hunnid sum on Investments
Slide up on your block with my blessings
I got love for shawty she aint get the Message
Imma bounce give a fuck bout no wasteman
Tell em they gon hunt me down
I'm bound to win
Praying they gon find me now
Let's run it then
Thinking they gon count me out
I understand
Mufucka aint no love when you in the
Lions Den
Woah lets back it up
Homie think twice 'fore
You get to acting up
Only dap it up once
And I know what that's about
Outside the function we might
Smack it out
We gon wait till it get quiet
Disrespectful
Shawty go giraffe when
She show me what the neck do
Disway datway
Born to get that bag nigga
Keep looking at me sideways
I was born to get you mad nigga
Boy you gotta grind for this
Ain't no pay to win
Rap game disease im built like the medicine
Never on some some new shit
I been what I been
Pull up to your joint and
You gon pay to let us in
I feel safer in my city in a black hoodie
Don't know how I know you
We ain't that goodie
Solo off the jump im coming back wit it
That's Kriss Kross Larry Bird
Off the rack wit it
I just spent a cool hunnid sum on Investments
Slide up on your block with my blessings
I got love for shawty she aint get the Message
Imma bounce give a fuck bout no wasteman
Tell em they gon hunt me down
I'm bound to win
Praying they gon find me now
Let's run it then
Thinking they gon count me out
I understand
Mufucka aint no love when you in the
Lions Den
Caught a mood it aint safe now
Forgiato rims to make my way down
Big homie lacking on his plays
To get that weight up and niggas
Just don't wait up
Better stay down 'fore you get laid down
Fam locked up on some forever shit
Now I cant see him on some never shit
As a jit remember playing Halo
When L was gettin payloads
We was running round blocks
Sliding through them crevices
It's a dog pound ain't no Funkflex
We gon show em how a dog sound
Man we was barely passing Christmas
When they took that boy to Christmas
Now my only goal is puttin sum on
That he can talk bout
I told these niggas nice and clear
That they gon see me
That's crazy what you heard
Now mufucka come and meet me
These cappers mad fake
Like the tick from they Rolex
Proud about the race
When I ain't even really go yet
Man these trenches got my body different
D's in the AM tryna tell us how
We caught him slippin
No Comment
10 thousand hours worth of homage
I know shooters in these streets and
I know shooters out in college
Where they stay balling but
They gon answer triple trey's calling
No matter where you stay
If you a G then you stay solid
Now it's round clock
We flipping n selling booze
Changing fast breaks like my team
Got Timo Cruz
I feel safer in my city in a black hoodie
Don't know how I know you
We ain't that goodie
Solo off the jump im coming back wit it
That's Kriss Kross Larry Bird
Off the rack wit it
I just spent a cool hunnid sum on Investments
Slide up on your block with my blessings
I got love for shawty she aint get the Message
Imma bounce give a fuck bout no wasteman
Tell em they gon hunt me down
I'm bound to win
Praying they gon find me now
Let's run it then
Thinking they gon count me out
I understand




Mufucka aint no love when you in the
Lions Den
