[ VERSE 1 ]
I kill em' but I ain't ever acting, its still a murder scene
Money could make a holy prophet turn to a murder fiend
We stay outta' trouble, with money I'm tryna' serve the g's
It is not a question of when, I tell I'm its certainly
I used to move to curvy tings as kid
Kinda' funny they were curving me
I had the confidence to do it
And the courtesy
Tables turn, bridges burn, life moves on
2023 to 99, get the mood on
2023 to 99, get the mood on
2023 to 99, get the mood on

Thеy say married to money something that I can't bе
Not my lover, but still gotta' put the billies in my jeans
People wearing fake attire, nothing new, that's a defect
I'll get something better way quicker that's a re-flex
Independent I don't ever send beat back
I'm the type to say goodbye and pull off with the seat back
Never had beemers' it was clio's and the sedans
And they had that shit revamped
Bumpers and the boom bass
Really I be wishing I was part those days
Surrounded by elders eventually part ways
Easiest decision I took it hard the way
I'm working to be blessed but really I can't wait
Me and my g' got the news like Dharmesh and Kaveh
Only difference we're the news we're saying it our way
[ VERSE 2 ]
I'm tryna' claim that I'm the one to turn this shit around
I told Michael I wanna global not just around the town
But as for now - in the local setting crowd are getting loud
Even skyscrapers started from the ground
I told my brothers keep your head down, put that on your head tops
Yeah we're on the way there, maybe not the next stop
Know we got a long way but Partying is way long
Working longs so days so the cheques are all day long
Most of that would fly over their heads cos' their walking anyway
They never felt the pressure but they're talking anyways
Stalling everyday, balling for the pay
Acting like they're balling even when they act, it's never paid
Just to hear saying man they gotta' run it back that's a replay
She effed up twice, that's a replay
Same time her man got replayed
It's cool cos karma comes around to make sure you get repaid
With blessings, devil's work don't work quit stressing
Talk to me I don't really like texting
01 baby I'm on brink of all 90's
My brother was telling me that I had at 19
Really I knew since I was like 5'3
What was that like 12 probably
Oh that' was when The curvy girls never wanted me...
