Ashamed

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Got on my darkest shades, this man is made

Inherit no riches, Jehovah's my witness

Physical fitness, home economics

In the kitchen digital scales producing the product

Cut the noose off my neck, black runaway slave

In the coupe with the tec, it's the home of the brave

They wanna know names, they toting em thangs

Never wanted the fame, just wanted a Range

I needed some change, mama needed a raise

She stayed in a rage, hated minimum wage

I'm feeling the same, all these criminals paid

Wearing Bally's and gold, I'm selling dope shameless to say

And maybe one day I could put this pain away

Until then I'ma be a d-boy, I'm ashamed to say

I'm ashamed to say

Until then I'ma be a d-boy, I'm ashamed to say

(Honey, it's shameless

Shameless, what you've done)

Until then I'ma be the d-boy, I'm ashamed to say

Until then I'ma be the d-boy, I'm ashamed to say

Before I was a fetus, had the genes of a leader

I mean look at my features, educated my teachers

I was calling them plays, you were still in the bleaches

Booby gave me the game, change to give me some sneakers

Now I'm roaming the block, car missing the top

Meaning missing a roof, hope you listening y'all

I was dealt a few blows, I felt a few lows

Even shed a few tears, I traveled that road

Went from walking on gravel, now I'm riding on vogues

50M's in the bank, I get me 200, I'm gone

Still so close to the hood, I'm ashamed to say

All the money in the world can't take this pain away

It's just another story at the campfire

Court side seats with the franchise

I think about my niggas doing 25

Shining bright, who am I for you to criticize?

(Honey, it's shameless

Shameless, what you've done)

Until then I'ma be the d-boy, I'm ashamed to say

Until then I'ma be the d-boy, I'm ashamed to say

I'm smoking psychedelics, I hustle like a felon

Hottest record label, but still in all I'm chilling

Not a crack in my voice, this young nigga so poised

First I stack some money, then go to war with them boys

Anybody can get it, hand this man here some tissues

Better ring the alarm, cause we bringing them pistols

Heaven singing them songs, speaking on sensitive issues

These emotional niggas, and most of them killas

They moving in silence, but they follow your Twitters

These the games that they play, they study your Instagram pictures

See I live by the code, that the mafia wrote

When he ran his mouth, me I'd rather smoke

I'd rather listen, he had to ask permission

I had to make a way, I had to add commission

Until this day I'm slain, the commission remains

Now I'm worth over a billion, I'm ashamed to say

(Honey, it's shameless

Shameless, what you've done)

Until then I'ma be the d-boy, I'm ashamed to say

Until then I'ma be the d-boy, I'm ashamed to say
