[Verse 1]
Yeah, 'cause she cut my wings
When she broke my heart and she took my ring back
Yeah, 'cause she cut my wings
When she broke my heart and she took my ring back (Bamba)
Yeah, 'cause she cut my wings
When she broke my heart and she took my ring back
Yeah, covered up my name tat, yeah
Now there's no more A$AP (Bamba)
My baby, her love sacred (Wouh)
I won't break it
That's yuh, yeah, now there's no more A$AP (Bamba)

[Chorus]
Once in a lifetime
I just felt the right time
Won't change to bright mind
Won't stick a– (Bamba)
Once in a lifetime
I just felt the right time
Won't change to bright mind
Won't stick around now (Bamba)

[Verse 2]
Did a lot to say I'm whack
You know your heart fade to black
Did a lot to say I'm whack
You know your heart fade to black (Bamba)
Did a lot to say I'm whack
You know your heart fade to black
Did a lot to say I'm whack
Now there's no more A$AP (Bamba)
My baby, her love sacred (Wouh)

Once in a lifetime
I just felt the right time
Won't change to bright mind

A$AP Rocky

Rakim Athelaston Mayers (named after “The God MC” Rakim), better known by his stage name, A$AP Rocky, hails from Harlem, New York. He is no stranger to the cliché rap lifestyle, popularized by fellow Harlem Patriarchs, from Big L and Kool Moe Dee to Mase and Cam'ron. However, Rocky’s melodic rap style has drawn more immediate comparisons to recently incarcerated Harlemite Max B.

Rocky’s career began in 2007, when he joined the Harlem-based A$AP Mob, founded by A$AP Yams, A$AP Bari and A$AP Illz. Rocky was projected into fame in 2011 following the release of his debut mixtape LIVE.LOVE.A$AP, which featured hits like “Peso” and “Purple Swag,” and earned him a record deal with RCA Records.

His debut studio album, Long. Live. A$AP was released in 2013, after several pushbacks by his label. Long.Live.A$AP was thought to exceed the promises of his debut mixtape, preserving Rocky’s immaculate taste while smartly upgrading his sound.
