[Chorus]
I started livin' my life when I got a deal (Yeah, yeah)
I got it straight out the mud
Money, I never knew how it feel (No, no, no)
I could blow me a dub
All of the bitches who cheer me on (Cheer me on)
Never showed me no love (No)
And now they all hear my songs (Hear my songs)
And it’s somethin' they love (Yeah)
I started livin' my life when I got a deal (Yeah, yeah)
I got it straight out the mud
Money, I never knew how it feel (No, no, no)
I could blow me a dub
All of the bitches who cheer me on (Cheer me on)
Never showed me no love (No)
And now they all hear my songs (Hear my songs)
And it’s somethin' they love (Yeah)
[Verse 1]
They never showed me no love (Oh)
Walk in the mall and I could blow a dub (Yeah)
All of the bitches who curved
Now they on me 'cause I'm up (Yeah, yeah)
Blue check on the 'Gram and now they textin' me, "What's up?" (What's up?)
I had to figure it out, all these hoes only want the clout
Hit ’em once, yeah, I’m in and out
Bitches ain't never liked me (No, no, no), now I’m the man
Niggas stay movin' shiesty, when they see them bands (No, no, no)
I can't trust nobody (Nobody), that's just how I feel
I’m tired of all this fake love (Fake love), so just keep it real
I got voices in my head, I want them to leave me alone (Leave me alone)
I did this shit on my own, yeah, I did this shit on my own (On my own)
It took me to see bro died to go get in my zone (Get in my zone)
But now I'm just standin' up, and nigga, I'm takin' the throne, yeah, yeah
[Chorus]
I started livin' my life when I got a deal (Yeah, yeah)
I got it straight out the mud
Money, I never knew how it feel (No, no, no)
I could blow me a dub
All of the bitches who cheer me on (Cheer me on)
Never showed me no love (No)
And now they all hear my songs (Hear my songs)
And it's somethin' they love (Yeah)
I started livin' my life when I got a deal (Yeah, yeah)
I got it straight out the mud
Money, I never knew how it feel (No, no, no)
I could blow me a dub
All of the bitches who cheer me on (Cheer me on)
Never showed me no love (No)
And now they all hear my songs (Hear my songs)
And it's somethin' they love (Yeah)
[Verse 2]
You wasn't there (You wasn't there), I would record in that room
Teammates would hotbox, this was way before that Auto-Tune
Recordin' daily in the projects, this was way before the projects (Projects)
Wayno told me I'ma pop next (Pop), L told me I'ma pop next (Yeah)
So I focused up 'cause I got next (Yeah)
Focusin' up, you see the fizz, that shit goin' up
You seen my 'Gram, that shit goin' up
Been workin' all year, got songs in the cut
Where I come from, niggas don't make it out
Wanna be a dopeboy, niggas sellin' out (Yeah)
Yeah, the police watchin', yeah, they stakin' out (Stakeout)
I ain't even have to follow, yeah, I made a route (Made a route)
2019 (2019), I said my life gon' change (Life gon' change)
2019, I'ma buy brand new things (Brand new things)
In 2019, we gon' get "We Gon' Ball" chains
In 2019, I'ma flex with my gang
[Chorus]
I started livin' my life when I got a deal (Yeah, yeah)
I got it straight out the mud
Money, I never knew how it feel (No, no, no)
I could blow me a dub
All of the bitches who cheer me on (Cheer me on)
Never showed me no love (No)
And now they all hear my songs (Hear my songs)
