Thank You
Rockie Fresh Lyrics

I used to stay up late and debate
I used to spend my nights debating and arguing with others.

Now I'm up late counting this cake
Now I'm up late counting my money and wealth.

This shit a feeling but I'm tripping cause
I have mixed emotions, even though my success feels good.

I ain't as really happy as I'm supposed to be
I'm not as happy as I thought I would be, even though I've achieved success.

It's getting hard cause I been losing people close to me
It's difficult to deal with the loss of loved ones.

I'm just the young hustler, I'm learning how to cope early
I'm still young and figuring out how to deal with challenges and setbacks.

And I can see a death trap even if it's perdy
I can recognize dangerous situations, even if they look appealing.

A lot of bitches be dirty so they just don't deserve me
Many women have negative intentions and behavior, and therefore are not worthy of my attention.

Watchin' how I move because I'm seeing that this life can merk me
I'm cautious of my actions and surroundings, as the dangers of this lifestyle can lead to my demise.

I watched Biggie, I watched Pac, I watched Pimp C
I studied the successes and downfalls of rap icons like Notorious B.I.G, Tupac, and Pimp C.

And you get driven to sipping when you get in deep
The pressures and stresses of this lifestyle often lead people to turn to alcohol.

Out here living for these niggas, it's so fucking silly
Living your life to impress others and gain their approval is a foolish and pointless endeavor.

Hating when you sit in front of God like you DJ Envy
Regretting the times you acted foolishly when you face judgment.

I had Breakfast Club meetings with my brother Rickie
I met with my friend Rickie on The Breakfast Club radio show.

And if you think he tried to change me, then you fucking crazy
If you believe Rickie tried to influence me, you're delusional.

If it ever went wrong, I did it on my own
If I face failure or criticism, it's due to my own actions.

Many people thought Rockie was a stepping stone
Many people expected me to fail and assumed I would be used for someone else's success.

Lot of parts in my life, I had to roll a dice
I've had many moments of uncertainty and risk-taking in my life.

But I learnt from my mistakes, I woulda did it twice
I've made mistakes, but I've learned from them and wouldn't repeat them.

Now them diamonds in my bezel shining like the city lights
My jewelry is flashy and glamorous, like the lights of the city.

The 36 floor is just a nigga city view
My view from the 36th floor is nothing more than a view of the city.

And Balmain and Bape on me, this ain't nothing new
I'm used to wearing high-end designer brands like Balmain and Bape.

But I ain't trippin' cause it don't make me better than you
I'm not letting my wealth and status make me feel superior to others.

Yeah, I'm blessed with pussy niggas, I got 'em reviewed
I've been fortunate to have insight into other people's negative intentions and behavior.

My 100s Blue Devil on me like I play for Duke
I have a lot of $100 bills, and some of them have the image of the Duke Blue Devil basketball logo.

"I never had a chance", that's just an excuse
People who say they never had a chance to succeed are just making excuses for their failures.

Got my dreams, hit the stars, I'm turning them loose
I'm pursuing my dreams and making them come true.

So funny how these fuckboys switched on me
I find it amusing how some people have changed their behavior towards me after my success.

They like "Damn, lil' Rockie got rich, homie"
Some people are surprised or jealous of my newfound wealth.

Now I'm smoked out with these two 6's, homie
I'm smoking marijuana with two friends.

He like pears so I passed it to the big homie
One of my friends likes pears, so I gave him one.

Talking 'bout money, we don't play about it
Money is a serious topic of conversation for us.

Talking 'bout some drama, I can stay without it
We don't want to hear or be involved in any unnecessary drama.

But you know it all comes with the fame
Dealing with the negative aspects of fame and recognition is inevitable.

They say you only get remembered when you got a name
People tend to only remember those who have made a significant impact or have a well-known name.

7 others died with Aaliyah on the plane
Aaliyah tragically passed away in a plane crash with seven other people.

I don't know nobody else, should them niggas feel the shame
I'm unfamiliar with the others who passed away, so I can't comment on whether they should be remembered or not.

Said I had a fear of flying, if I can't save hip-hop
If I can't save the state of hip-hop, then my fear of flying is insignificant.

Can I least save a young nigga from dying?
Can I use my platform to help prevent young people from dying too soon?

Save a mother from crying 'less it's tears of joy
Can I use my influence to help prevent mothers from mourning their children, unless they're crying tears of joy?

Tell a father he's supposed to be there for his girl and his boy
Encourage fathers to be present and involved in the lives of their children.

Staying on a hustle with all of the right reasons
I'm hustling and working hard for the right reasons and motivations.

To give the right gift some holiday season
To give my loved ones thoughtful and meaningful gifts during the holiday season.

Secrecy with me come for free if you wanna know
If you want to know something in confidence, I'm willing to keep it secret for free.

But homies know on the low, I'm fucking that (?) hoe
My close friends know that I'm having sex with someone who I am not identifying by name.

In the ghetto and our pockets is all we ever dreams
In the ghetto, financial success and wealth is typically everyone's goal and aspiration.

If I'm giving any chance, I'mma shoot a three
If I have a chance or opportunity, I'm going to take a risk and go for it.

From the bleachers, know my daddy rooting up in Heaven
Even though my father has passed away, I know he is watching and supporting me from heaven.

Niggas jealous, they can't imagine how much you stressing
Some people are envious of my success and underestimate the amount of stress and pressure that comes with it.

Homie looking at me odd stepping out of cars
Some people are suspicious or judgmental of me when I exit a car in a flashy location.

Model chick, she from New York, you should look at her
I saw an attractive woman from New York who caught my attention.

Stepping in a nigga way that's donkey of the day
When someone interferes with my goals or progress, they're being foolish and will be seen as such.

Down to do a nigga dirty, put him in his place
Willing to take actions against someone who threatens my well-being or success.

And regardless of my ways, I would tend to pray
Despite my lifestyle and choices, I still practice prayer and seek guidance from a higher power.

Ask them niggas that you praise, do they have a faith?
Ask those who you admire or hold in high regard, do they practice a faith or have a belief system?

Air Condition for niggas who's under one condition
Providing cool air to those who can't afford it, but only if they meet certain requirements or conditions.

Hurt home, your mother gone but she a Christian
Even though my home life may be difficult and my mother has passed away, she had faith and believed in Christianity.

Sort of a football star, his father never visited
There is a football player who has experienced neglect from his father, who has never visited or been involved in his life.

But who am I? Another rapper holding on his pistol
I'm just another rapper that people may stereotype as having a gun or being violent.

Said enough, yes, it's fat boy, Ricky Rizzle
This line is the end of the song and serves as an introduction or reminder of the artist's name and nickname.
