Verse 1
First fuck all the haters, the ones that said they'd ride for me
Never rode for me, the ones that said they'd take a bullet for me Never dove for me, A cat don't know but I'm lion with 9 lives
You ever seen your family get destroyed in front of your eyes?
Couldn't find a shoulder to cry, that's when I focused up and looked up to the sky
If I love you then we tied, If a opp is seen its on sight!
Make him see those lights, Im not about the trouble so I keep it suddel, No pain no gain ! And I've been working like a muscle
Heart colder than the streets, Catch me with my bubble
To much drip I'm leaving with a puddle, keep the double by the buckle, took me out of situations where I was troubled
Niggas be mad cuz their head look like a knuckle, even his bitch gets a chuckle. Anyways my vision is tunneled , birds eye view
Hated niggas who showed off everything that was new
That shit made me want to rob! Got tired of being in the bottom
To many roaches and possums , Nigga I gotta blossom
Westbrook the way I was diming , like come cop some!
Hook
Thugz cry and men do too
Learned at the early age
Take shit serious don't act the fool
It was school or clutch a tool
Its crazy how life makes you choose
Young nigga stuck between two stools
I swear the hoods set up for us to lose! (2x)
Verse 2
Theres niggas who watch some
There's niggas who get some
You choose!
Not about to loose so I never snooze
Got a few who flag blue and purple like a bruise
I'm in a different league I'm 1942 your booze
What you see goes deeper than the roots
You would've thought this was Home Depo
The way we stashing tools, swimming like Micheal Phelps
When Im in her pool, Aquafina , niggas can catch me in the cocina
Cooking up that work, pulled out the barrette had homie do the jerk
Look! Staying away from cops cuz niggas know I don't do pork
Even in the winter time the streets be hot in New York
I come handy in any situation like a spork, killing these niggas is turning into a sport. Fucking with the wrong niggas gets your body found in a park in the port! Even seen a crackhead get naked off the snort? *Sniff *Sniff Smell that? It smells like a bitch, someone get the broom cuz your bitch riding my stick. Im from an era where dubs where once called nicks. Where niggas could actually get rich off of a brick!

Young nigga stuck between two stools
I swear the hoods set up for us to lose! (2x)
Verse 3
The hoods set up for us to lose, Whys the hood set up for us to lose?
Shits been like this since I was young. Shit! I'm still young , young and I'm dumb trying to make a mill while having run
Horchata with the rum, I'm about calculating sums
Bright like the sun, hit niggas with the rays. The way I dropped off the dick, had her limping for days
She's a good thinker she's good with head
Me deciding to be a rapper is the best thing since sliced bread
Niggas say they your homies but they hate a threat!
Remember those nights I was hanging by a thread
No food at the crib trying to find a lic, so I can get some change
If you fought back your face was rearranged. Younging filled with rage these niggas living lies, I'm the living truth, getting the truth out of someone is like bending a tooth
Pops told me patience is key so I had to be patient at Ruths
Stacking my bengi until I find the route
Don't talk much make you think I was mute , talkers die fast
And I'm not gonna go out young in a casket with a suit (Bye Bye)
