Uh, uh, uh, uh, uh (no, no)
Uh, uh, uh, uh, uh (no)
Uh, uh, uh
Used to hit the block and serve
Work the rock like Kyrie Irv'
Link up with gang, like, what's the word?
And, yeah, bitch, I'm really him, put that on fire, fuck what you heard
Got three .50s, that's 150, ain't no limit, I fuck with Herb
Lil' kids turned grown men, we come from cribs dysfunctional
Gotta learn how to play your own hand, don't ever get too comfortable
That's lil' shit, he can think he hot 'til them real killers come and humble you
All day, tell 'em, "Spin the block," 'til your best friend laying under you
Know 'bout late nights and that hunger
Know 'bout rainy days and that thunder
I know lil' niggas on slime shit, no Young Thugs and Gunnas
We was in the field, Glock kick back, we gon' kick it off like punters
I'm Too Turnt Gang, got five in me, I ain't never been no runner (bitch)
I can't ever go back to the way shit was (oh, oh, oh, no)
I done really came from nothing, now I got everything that I want
I can't ever go back to the way shit was (no)
I done came too far, put that on everything I love
Roaches in the crib, mama on drugs (uh, no)
I can't let it go back to the way that it was
I can't never go back (no, oh)
I can't never, I can't never
I can't never, I can't never, oh
I come from the muddiest part of the trenches
Where niggas are dyin' today
Niggas into it with you but niggas gon' hang
In clique and be in the way (yeah, yeah, yeah)
I'd rather be on the case and stay in the mix
Than be in a nigga case (be in a nigga case)
I don't sneak diss, the shit I tell my dawg
The shit I'll say in your face (say in a nigga face)
Perc' got Fentanyl on 'em, he still want him a sixty (want him a sixty)
I took my brother Ruger and told him think and I gave him a .50 (oh)
That backdoor cool where I'm from, that shit new in the city (oh, oh, oh)
And y'all be hanging and playing the game together, you know you snitchin' (oh, oh, oh)
I be tired of losing my niggas to niggas who knew the killer (who knew the killer)
Threw up my guts, I seen that footage
You don't know that feeling (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
I can't hang with my niggas, homies dolo
I don't know them niggas (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Why they play with me on IG like we lame? They know we killers, yeah
I can't ever go back to the way shit was (oh, oh, oh, no)
I done really came from nothing, now I got everything that I want
I can't ever go back to the way shit was (no)
I done came too far, put that on everything I love
Roaches in the crib, mama on drugs (uh, no)
I can't let it go back to the way that it was
I can't never go back (no, oh)
I can't never, I can't never
I can't never, I can't never, oh
The song "No Return" by Polo G feat. The Kid LAROI & Lil Durk speaks about their struggles, growth, and the sense of fulfillment they have achieved in their careers. The opening lines recount the times when Polo G and his gang used to hit the block and serve, which he equates with the basketballer Kyrie Irving working the rock. He mentions that they have come a long way since then, but they still live with the memories of their dysfunctional childhoods, constant violence, and that hunger that kept them going. Lil Durk then takes over, stressing the importance of staying vigilant and rising above the negativity surrounding them, even if it means cutting off old associates who do not share the same vision.
The chorus reflects the artists' appreciation of how far they have come from their humble beginnings. Polo G notes that he can never go back to how things were before he made it big, while the verse by The Kid LAROI highlights the perils of getting involved in street life and losing friends as well as family members along the way. In all, "No Return" is a beautiful collaboration that takes its listeners on an introspective journey that relays a message of hope, resilience, and perseverance.
