Now we nearly on top , nearly On top , yeah we nearly on top , yeah we nearly on top , yeah we nearly on the top
Remember broke days
I didnβt have no fucking money I didnβt have no fucking papes
Remember broke days I had to get up
The shit real , gotta keep the steel
Iβm riding round I need the mills
Iβm trying to know if u real
& I will never sign a deal if itβs dead
Iβll never sign it on my life if itβs dead
Yh I need that paper I need money I need bread
All the people that I fed & they donβt show me love
Iβm looking at these people they ainβt even give me hugs Iβm looking at these people like fuck em
