[Verse]
I'm wide awake at 3 AM
I barely get some sleep cause my dreams scare me
Got me thinkin' what would happen if they ever came true
Would they hate me when the cheques come through?
Or
Would they love me and think I'd ever come through?
Nah I'm ghost when this shit pans out like Omari Hardwick
Man I'd rather pop out like Baby and Nardo wick
Man I'm just tellin' you the truth if I ever hit a lick
Some niggas switch sides if they evеr get that brick
I'm just speakin' from expеrience
A couple niggas stabbed my back for a couple dimes
I ain't bout to get revenge but I gotta get what's mine
Niggas see the green and they think they're slime
And when you cashed out they gon' show you it's bout time
You get that sour face when you bittin' on some lime
They're timing so sublime
Show me what I gotta do to make it to my climb to the top
And even if it's trial and error I'm never gonna stop
And that's unfortunate to the bitches who be thinkin' I ain't shit
To them niggas who be claimin' every record that I write ain't a hit
I come from the bottom, man I come from the pit
I come from a place where niggas go to prison
Police corrupt the system
Niggas take meds without prescription
Girls sell their body without conviction
Every household has a person with ambition that never made it
Cause the neighbors doin' dirt
And the teachers ain't teachin' but, eyein' skirts
Every saturday be a funeral
Somebody got popped
Somebody got mopped
Somebody got locked
I don't know if it's me or I'm prolly overthinkin'
I need some therapy from the shit I done see
Family turns against each other tryna take the wheel
The screams too loud like some fucking fire drills
Niggas skip school tryna take quick thrills
And late regret when their blood really got spilled
Spoilt kids cryin' for some milk that spilled when them parents start strugglin' payin' them bills
They say speed kills so I took my time writtin' this at 3 AM
Tryna figure to myself if I am who I am
If I look in the mirror will I see myself?
If I cross the finish line is there somebody there, on the otherside waitin' for me?
Cause only God knows where I'm headead
Maybe overseas, rappin' for my fans at my shows
But only God knows where I'm headin' so I'll let it be
Yeah
[Refrain]
Realest shit I ever wrote
Yeah, yeah
Yessir
