Uh

Uh

This is extraordinary

Can't ignore it, this my story, I been more than ready

And this stuff I'm cookin' up, this here like culinary

True intentions, must I mention it's just legendary?

Broward baby, '80s baby, Blondie's youngest son

You either dyin' for your dream or livin' for the gun

Or we prayed to see the sun or either twenty-one

Deerfield, it's in my blood, it ain't just where I'm from

Them folk gon' underestimate you, play you like you dumb

I nod my head and get my bread, you will not feed me crumbs

On the low, I'm with my tribe, I'm gettin' rich as f**k

Not only finance, my whole world is vibrant

Young tyrant, so immune to the sirens

Nowadays, I hear them sounds and send my prayers up

Tell my dogs I love 'em, somethin' we don't say enough

See, nowadays we talkin' assets, I'm into different brackets

Me and mine, it's easy passin', we ain't stuck in traffic

Higher self over high fashion

One connected through a higher passion

I feel enlightened, but also a savage

I feel the greatest shit has yet to happen

Lions and them tigers and them bears never scared me

Reachin' out for somethin' that may never even ever be 'em

Huh, aw, look at they faces, tried to take me from my greatness

Look at they faces, tried to take me from my greatness

Aw, look at they faces, tried to take me from my greatness

A greater man, I'm greater than any hater, man

I started off servin' hand to hand in Decatur, man

Slingin' coke, college dropout and overeducated

But that don't matter when you broke and undercompensated

The world'll laugh at you, shame on you and embarrass you

And the police'll do it too as they harassin' you (they will)

On your knees, cross your ankles, interlock your fingers (they kill)

Oh, you a rapper, huh? Well, sing somethin', n**a (no deal)

Lord, I know I've been changed

And I'm still participatin' in a dangerous game

I went from rappin' and cappin' and caught in the fame

To arrivin' alive just to see this shit's still the same

Niggas killin' they migos over they egos (they migos)

Niggas killin' they own folks and peoples (your people)

A righteous people, but, man, we movin' evil (so evil)

Expectin' blessings, but still ain't learnin' our lessons (my people)

They call you brother, but your brothers is confessin'

At the sight of an early exit

Police ain't got to guess it (they f**n' snitch)

Judas to Jesus, even true to believers

Brutus to Caesars, backstab and deceive us (b**h)

I been through it, just you as my n**a Ace Hood (hood)

The troubled waters, I wade through

It and prayed through it (we made good)

I made somethin' from nothin', man, I made good (we made good)

The Lord made it better, my gratitude forever (amen)

Lions and them tigers and them bears never scared me

Reachin' out for somethin' that may never even ever be 'em

Huh, aw, look at they faces, tried to take me from my greatness

Look at they faces, tried to take me from my greatness

They ain't knowin', they ain't knowin'

They ain't knowin' I was born into righteousness

They ain't knowin'

They ain't knowin' they ain't knowin'

I was born into righteousness

Aw, look at they faces, tried to take me from my greatness

Aw, look at they faces, tried to take me from my greatness

Aw, yeah, they tried to take me from my greatness

Aw, yeah, they tried to take me from my greatness
