[Intro: Kevin Gates]
[?] you heard?
Ayy

[Chorus: Kevin Gates]
Can't keep my mind off you
Grindin' all day, got my mind on you
Hustle all day, all day
Tryna keep my mind off you

[Verse 1: Kevin Gates]
I know I'm militant in nature, hmm
It's a war outside and we all outside
I've been shootin' through the hood, I've been scorin' outside
If you touch one of us, then we all gon' ride
Big drop and the car got gas
Cartel tale, and I never had to flex
A hoe call me daddy, out here from the Bay
World on my dick, I was bless with the swag

[Chorus: Kevin Gates]
Can't keep my mind off you
Grindin' all day, got my mind on you
Hustle all day, all day
Tryna keep my mind off you

[Verse 2: Bodega Bamz]
Bugala, bugala
En la cama booyaka, booyaka
And I got a few ting, ting, tings
School bell ah ring, ring, ring
Nah, don't finish you statement
You a 'lone [?], Papi, I be the replacement
Married to the game with prior engagement
Came a long way from my grandmomma basement (Basement)
Baby, keep my mind on you
Never play you in the summer, four-four, winter too (Winter too)
You alone 'cause you dangerous
I got the bullet with your name on it (Name on it)
The gun bein' used come from you then I'm prayin' on it (Prayin' on it)
If love is a mountain then I'm layin' on it
With a big house, on top and we stayin' on it
Don't stop another man shine, throwin' shade on it (Shade on it)
Young chulo, low fade, with the blade on it (Blade on it)
Never call hate, throw sage on it
Marianna on the [?], has to say shawty
I ain't got the same story, I ain't got the same story

[Chorus: Kevin Gates & Bodega Bamz]
Can't keep my mind off you
Grindin' all day, got my mind on you
Hustle all day, all day
Tryna keep my mind off you
Can't keep my mind off you
Grindin' all day, got my mind on you
Hustle all day, all day
Tryna keep my mind off you
Can't keep my mind off you
Grindin' all day, got my mind on you
Hustle all day, all day
Tryna keep my mind off you
Can't keep my mind off you
Grindin' all day, got my mind on you

Papi. Young Don. El Rey. Whatever you call him, Bodega Bamz is a major influence in New York’s underground rap scene. Born on March 17th, 1985 as Nathaniel de la Rosa, his ethnic background is half Dominican and half Puerto Rican. Bodega Bamz constantly reps Spanish Harlem in his own sub-genre of Latin Trap.

Bamz’s brother, Ohla, is a vital part of his life and career. He plays a role in the creative process of most of Bamz’s music, as well as the corporate side of things. “My brother, my manager, everything.”

For most of his childhood, Bamz wasn’t allowed to listen to hardcore rap. His exposure to the genre grew thanks to his cousin, Ace, who had a wide collection of rap CDs. In high school, Bamz began battle rapping. A popular hobby at the time, it was his defining moment as a rapper. However, he started to take music much more seriously when he became a father.
