This song follows “All White Party”, where he drives or goes through his career as a black male pretending to be white by doing double the work. This songs talks about how the people Aha used to work with or wanting to work with want to be apart of Aha’s success but not be a part of the process.
[Chorus]
All I hear is pretty please, pretty please
Everybody's on their knees like, "I really want to ride with you. But I don't want to die with" yeah
[Verse: 1]
Most of youse on nine lives these copycats starting to sound repetitive
They ran out of things to call me my phone's been dead just leave a message
The only thing that I see is average so I give them B's
To make them feel better
Claiming that they keep it 100, but hey I think you need some extra credit
A lot of things that I've seen and heard but I mind my business and I never question
A lot of people ask for how-to's like I'm still in school giving out lessons
Starting to think that I'm a scientist the way they always asking for my formula
Now every rapper want to have a band I guess I gotta switch it to a orchestra
Josh said he want to be a barber so I cut him out and I switch drummers
Steve Wonder probably saw it coming cause he did never get along with Ruffin
Late nights rehearsing at the church cause he didn't know the songs like a bad concussion
He never did like to listen by the time you hear this verse it won't mean nothing
Brought Juno back down from Little Rock the team back together I got all my starters
Gotta prove we made the right decision, gotta work harder cause he's now a father
Dodging every single obstacle so I don't end up in a cubicle
While I sit here and watch my band play at my gran's funeral
[Bridge]
They be like, "I ain't trying to gas you up
But right before you pass me up I really love your drive
So can I please ride with you I want to be down with you."
Yeah
[Chorus]
And all I hear is, "Pretty please, pretty please."
Everybody's on their knees like, "I really want to ride with you
I want to be down with you
And all I hear is, "Pretty please, pretty please."
Everybody's on their knees like, "I really want to ride with you but I don't want to die with you."
Cool
[Skit]
Yeezus
Got the Yeezys
Yeah my Yeezys real, don't try to play my Yeezys cuh
Know what I'm saying
Got 'em straight from Kanye himself
[Verse: 2]
It's Aha
Let's get it poppin
Like a bag of chips, I'm too equipped, so there ain't no stopping
They want protection from this rapper but I ain't a condom
I'm extra saucy, they extra salty, don't look inside them
I don't look like what I've been through in life, it don't add up and so they have a problem, they don't have the knowledge, can't comprehend it cause it ain't they business
Look at my numbers and it makes them wonder
But it doesn't matter cause this ain't statistics
They like Aha you doing the most
And I'm like not at all God did it
His hands on me, all ten fingers, that's ten minutes, it's nine fifty, I'm ten deep, that's nine sixty, that's down to go commit crimes with me
I'm just playing, but really know I'm just saying don't come and pick a fight with me
Got a ten piece that's fried crispy
I like to rap a lot cause I'm gifted
And I like to sing I got the choir with me
I'm never tripping because God lifts me
Everybody trying to ride with me
Wanna get fat up off the pie with me
Wanna run away when it's time to roll, but don't get ran over cause the tire slippery
Counting money ain't the only thing, you still gotta have some accountability
Liars only have one skill, that's prolly why they called liabilities
I gotta my families, and I got my friends I keep it all inside like parenthesis
They just mad that I'm the real version of everything that they pretend to be
But when I get paid and disappear, just promise that you don't get mad at me
Let's make it clear, I'm just a rapper, I'm not a pastor, I never said I'd be
[Bridge]
They be like, "I ain't trying to gas you up
But right before you pass me up
Can I please ride with you I want to be down with you"
[Chorus]
And all I hear is, "Pretty please, pretty please"
Everybody is on their knees like, "I really want to ride with you
