Wrote this shit, January 21

Baby girl, I had to run, I be back a couple months

Kendall turned 21, was up the street with 21

They could see me online but they won't see me on the ones

I got Dubai plates, in a California state

I got her waitin' at my place, I got no baby on the way

I'm talkin' Baby like Stunna, I'm talkin' Baby like Face

Lost millions in the past, I'm talkin' maybe like 8

Couple niggas from the city wishin' on a star, can they be like Drake

Sorry no, not today, you gotta find your own way

Big dog from the 6, I'm talkin' Dogg like Nate

My shit be raw out the gate, I don't need another take

40 got a house on the lake, I ain't know we had a lake

She complainin' how I'm late, I ain't know it was a date

Niggas see me in person, first thing they say is, "I know you need a break"

Hell naw, I feel great, ready now, why wait?

Like a kiss from a rose, I could be the one to seal your whole fate

So be careful what you think, think about what you gon' say

Gotta deal with people straight, I got my 23s laced

It's a marathon, not a sprint, but I still gotta win the race, yeah

And I'm convinced

I made sacrifices, I been ballin' ever since

We seein' so many blessin's, shit don't make no sense

Someone watchin' over us, so shout goes out to him

Yeah, I'm convinced

I made sacrifices, I been ballin' ever since

Yeah, I did some wrong, I had no choice in my defense

Someone watchin' over us, so shot goes out to

2 Chainz, I'm a real one

Few shows, that's a mil run

When she bust it down, I said, "Thanks for givin' to me, " like a pilgrim

Cold world, I be chillin'

Earmuffs on the children

Used to trap out the Hilton

Got wood on the Cartiers, that's a face full of splinters

Count a bankroll for dinner

This the wrong place to enter

Phone sex, yeah for breakfast

All kinda women text us

Met her at the Super Bowl, told her I stayed down the street from Texas

A-Town, I stay down

Yeah, it's all in the wrist

This one here out the fence

Trap jumpin' like the Carter

Nina jumpin' like Vince

Moved on from the election

Introduced her to the plug, can't believe they tried to take the connection

Ooh, girl, you a blessin'

Fine ass, be finessin'

Yeah, I love my fans but I don't wanna take pictures in the restroom

Drench God with the 6 God

Point guard and the 2 guard

"Pretty Girls Like Trap Music" so I woke up with my wood hard

And I'm convinced

I made sacrifices, I been ballin' ever since

We seein' so many blessin's, shit don't make no sense

Someone watchin' over us, so shout goes out to him

Yeah, I'm convinced

I made sacrifices, I been ballin' ever since

Yeah, I did some wrong, I had no choice in my defense

Someone watchin' over us, so shot goes out to

I was stealin' from a bitch, back when I was 21

My favorite gun was a SIG, 20 in the clip, head one

Growin' up, I was a runnin' back, you never made me ran once

I got shot, sweat started runnin', that shit was red like Hunt (Ketchup)

I'm kickin' pimpin' like I punt, but don't you think shit's sweet

I'm talkin' sweet thin meat, I'm talkin' sweet like he sleep

We ain't doin' too much talkin', I'm talmbout talkin' like a speech

Like the President I kill and meet, I'm talkin' neat like freak

I'm talkin' neat like fleek, I'm talkin' neat like a geek

You come with beef, I eat the beat

I'm talkin' B’s, spellin' B

Double R, that's a Rolls

Paint it yellow like it's dairy

I'm talkin' Rolls like Derek

I'm talkin' Rolls like a Bentley

Like a new car, I got 2 keys

Tryna score the bucket like a Chevy seat

And I heard they been pullin' all week

I'ma use a name like who is he, you get it?

I said I'ma use a name like who is he

Got some gold on, leperchaun sheets

Deep sleep short for deceased

Big bezel on the pati', I'm talkin' pati, I mean Patek

Don't try to take it, I got guns

I'm talkin' guns, not pellets

I watch the game from the floor (floor seats)

I'm talkin' wood, first mattress

I'm talkin' wood, pants down

I'm talkin' woods like them clowns (you get it?)

I got my mink off a monkey

I'm talkin' monkey like Jumanji

All your diamonds partly sunny

I'm talkin' sunny like D, Sunny

My diamonds wet, it cost me money

I'm talkin' wet like it's runnin' (sink)

I'm talkin' wet like Katrina (New Orleans)

I'm talkin' wet like Dasani, huh

And I'm convinced

I made sacrifices, I been ballin' ever since

We seein' so many blessin's, shit don't make no sense

Someone watchin' over us, so shout goes out to him

Yeah, I'm convinced

I made sacrifices, I been ballin' ever since

Yeah, I did some wrong, I had no choice in my defense

Someone watchin' over us, so shot goes out to
