Sheck Wes Lyrics

Still in this bitch with the same niggas I came with
I'm still with my original crew and haven't changed for anyone

I'ma be honest, I don't feel no pain
I am numb to pain and nothing fazes me

I can't even see you through my shades, bitch
I am so cool and untouchable that I don't need to acknowledge anyone

On the West Coast with a bad bitch in my coupe
I am in the West Coast with a sexy girl in my car

She's used to the gangbangers
She is comfortable with the lifestyle and has dated gang members before

On the East Coast with the Less gang
I hang out with the Less gang when I'm on the East Coast

On the block plottin', thinking 'bout what we takin', yeah
I am strategizing and planning a robbery with my crew

On the road though, gettin' checks, uh
I am making money while traveling

What a young nigga makin', uh
I am making a lot of money at a young age

I've been close to the angels, running away from Satan, uh
I have had divine protection and have avoided bad influences in my life

Assalamu alaykum, uh
I greet you with Islamic greeting of peace

I bring home the bacon, young Sheck Wes
I am the breadwinner of my family and provide for them

I do not do haram, uh, I eat the halal, uh
I follow Islamic dietary laws and only eat permissible food

Pork, I ain't never taste it
I have never tried pork due to religious reasons

Never had a nine to five or had the late shift
I have never worked a regular job or had to work long hours

Moms had to work so I had to raise me, uh
My mother had to work hard to support our family, so I had to take care of myself

'Cause shit was really hard, uh, it's different for us
Our life was tough, and we had to work harder than others

Anything I wanted, had to take it
I had to hustle and take what I wanted because it wasn't given to me

I gotta go and get mine (bitch)
I have to work hard and get what's mine

I catch planes and catch flights (catch flights, bitch)
I travel frequently by plane

I just copped a new ride (new ride)
I recently bought a new car

Used to finesse MTA for the swipe (swipe me)
I used to use someone else's subway card to ride for free

Now it's different foreigns when I slide (slide, bitch)
Now I have luxury foreign cars when I drive

Put this shit down, bitch, I'm stife
I am confident and skilled in what I do

Gang got guns and knives (lost Boys)
My gang is armed with guns and knives

I'm from New York, baby, you'll get sliced (knife gang)
I'm a member of a gang known for using knives and will use one if needed

Buck fifty, baby, on sight (on sight, ow)
I am not afraid to cut someone's face and will do it without hesitation

I want horsepower, I don't want the ice (want the ice)
I prefer fast cars over expensive jewelry

I used to lust and do bad crime (lust gang)
I used to commit crimes for pleasure

Now they put me in the New York Times (New York Times)
Now I am famous and recognized in the media

Bring tears right to my mother eyes
My accomplishments make my mother proud and emotional

Play with my mother feelings, you'll die (you'll die pussy)
Threatening anyone who upsets or disrespects my mother

Gettin' that chicken, Popeyes (Popeyes)
I am making a lot of money, like the fast-food chain Popeyes

Green like spinach, Popeye (Popeye)
My money is plentiful and green, like spinach and the cartoon character Popeye's spinach

Pull up, Sheck Wes pop eyes
I show up in my car, like the character Popeye's appearance

I don't touch bitches, but I pop guys (I pop 'em)
I don't mess around with women, but I am willing to fight men

Light up my blunt and get high (higher)
I smoke marijuana and get high

If shit get crunk, I'ma rise (I'ma rise)
If a situation becomes volatile, I will step up and fight

I pull up on arrival (arrival)
I arrive in style and with confidence

You know the scouts with the guys
My crew is always with me, scouting the situation

Whole lotta guns like Condoleezza Rice (yeah)
I have a lot of guns, like former U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice's controversial remarks on Iraq's weapons of mass destruction

I call the shots like Condoleezza Rice
I am the boss and make all the decisions

I was in the projects eatin' that rice (rice)
I grew up in a low-income housing complex and ate cheap food

Now a young nigga order wagyu (bitch)
Now I can afford expensive, high-quality meat like wagyu beef

And I got b's up in my ride (my ride)
I have a lot of money and it's reflected in my car

They want me to do the deals
People are interested in signing me and want me to make business deals

If you ain't got the millions, we can't sign (I'll wait)
I will only sign with those who can offer a significant amount of money

Tell David, they got that chicken (chicken)
Tell my manager David that they have the money for the deal

We can't pay the price, ain't right (at all)
We can't agree to a deal if the price isn't fair

Cactus Jack, baby, I been winnin' (Jack)
Referring to his record label, Cactus Jack, he has been successful and hasn't lost a battle yet

Man, that done changed my life (facts)
His success has changed his life for the better

Always keep a bad bitch, we gotta hide (got to hide)
He always has a beautiful woman with him, but they need to keep a low profile to avoid trouble

Got a whole lotta wins in my column (in my column)
He has a significant number of victories and successes behind him

And Dior shades all on my eyes (my eyes)
He wears high-end Dior sunglasses to show off his wealth and style

Can't pull up on arrival (yeah)
He must arrive with caution and without drawing attention to himself

And you know the scouts with the guys
His crew is still with him, watching for any trouble or danger

Bitch
Used as an exclamation point to emphasize the swagger and confidence expressed in the song
