[Intro: Sy Ari da Kid]
Ells, cue the sample
Don't rush it nigga, just sing that shit
I don't wanna hear that bullshit
Jag gon' pull up at the drums, on the bass line whatever
Yeah, tell Translee pull up like around like, like nine o'clock
Yeah, yeah
[Verse 1: Sy Ari da Kid]
Yeah, check, didn't I grow up?
Didn't I put the pen down and gave y'all the notebook like Noah?
Didn't I show up with my tank on empty?
Waited to blow up, look at the way y'all envy shit
Didn't I help everybody I had around me?
Man in the mirror, kept lookin' for him but hadn't found me
Was drowning but didn't I learn to swim? I listened to my pops
Taught my son what I learned from him, it worked for him
And didn't I listen to Aquemini?
I skipped Big Boi verse just to get to Andre
Then later realized, I should've let the whole song play
Didn't I hustle on the road all day? You was at home always
Didn't I drop so fast? Didn't I record?
All the way turnt up for Roscoe Dash
Didn't I have to say it like that?
Didn't I borrow 10 thou' from H and paid it right back?
Myself was down and out but he helped without a doubt
And I was that much short and it helped me buy a house, ugh
Didn't I hang on? Didn't I have Jacquees, John John Da Don, and Migos on the same song?
And 21 others, yeah I did did it
Didn't I kill Sway In The Morning for 6 minutes?
Didn't I do a song with Premier like—
Didn't I? Yeah, I did, ugh, I did, yeah, I did
[Bridge: Translee]
Yo Sy this remind me of Mariachi days
If you know, you know (Yeah)
[Verse 2: Translee]
Didn't I give 'em "Lost in the Sauce" but they still lost?
Gave the game free, I already had squared the cost
Didn't I make [?] sign me while I was working?
I was rappin' truth while Atlanta was swag surfin'
Didn't I give you culture before it was for the culture
Before you could see the vultures, I mean
Someone gotta die right? To see the vultures
That mean culture dead
So go ahead and put your boy face up on the sculpture head
Didn't I give you black? Didn't I give you facts? (Ugh)
Didn't I never slip especially on wax? (Nope)
Didn't I make T.I.P double back to 'Bama after Dough died
Just keepin' the spotlight on that road tied (Grandma)
I got 'em squintin' they eyes, you see my soul shine
In this over 10 years, you know the whole 9
Ain't gotta dig it for long, they see I'm goldmine
I see them try the school thing till it was pole time
I see them try the pole thing till it was fuck time
And then I show up on time like black lunch time
Huh? Didn't I? I did
[Bridge: Quentin Miller]
You know Sy I got you anytime you hit me, bro, like you
You know?
[?] respect his sparring partner, you feel me?
[Verse 3: Quentin Miller]
Yeah, didn't I? I could've sworn I had reached—
—higher than what any critic of me would think
Elephant in the room nobody wants to see
Hate to say it's me but it's me
I can't help I'm top five of all time
Oh my fault, I gotta die before I get my shine
Blog sites got the rough draft saved
"Alleged ghostwriter Quentin Miller passed away"
"L, L, Q.M" tweets, interviews on how dope I used to be
I see that's how they want me going out
But fuck what they talkin' about, I know I'll figure it out
Focus on whats within, no lookin' out
Real recognize real, I know the vouch
Get your ass out the house
You got another 24, make it count (Haha, aight)
