The opening track of RAUL sets up some of the recurring themes in the album, including his father’s deportation, the flawed church, and how people that gave up on him and then came back are not welcome. “FREEZE” features ad-libs from fellow labelmate Tedashii and vocals from newly-signed labelmate W...
[Intro: WHATUPRG]
I was just a kid when my dad got deported, uh
Ever since then, everything ice cold
I was just a kid when my dad got deported, yeah
Ever since then everything ice- (Woo)
[Verse: WHATUPRG & Tedashii]
Cold like thirty-two
No Miami Heat, uh, ain't no switching teams, uh
You just want a ring, heh, miss me with them tweets, heh
Hit me with the sub, but I'm zero with the freeze
Where you been?
Woo, woo, woo, woo, woo, woo, woo!
I been came through, homie, you forgot to live
Woo, woo, woo, woo, woo, woo, woo!
Yeah, shorty hit my line, said we better off as friends, huh (Huh)
I ain't even know we started dating to begin, huh (Ayy, yeah)
God taught me how to go against the trends, huh (Huh)
If you not the homie when you see me, don't pretend, huh (Huh)
Pray that I'm forgiven 'stead of trippin' 'bout my sin, huh
Yeah, I don't compromise (No, I don't!)
This was destined, I ain't roll a dice (No, you can't!)
Please don't hit my DMs for my price (Don't you do it!)
Heh, all that talkin', I might charge you twice (Twice!)
I need bands, couple hundred bands, you don't understand (Yeah)
Momma stressed tryna pay the rent, give her my advance (Yeah)
Got a hundred million secrets I've been keepin' on the low
WHATUPRG, this Lil Holy, as of now, I'm in control
[Interlude: WHATUPRG]
Oh no, I can't
I cannot
No, no
I can't
[Chorus: WHATUPRG]
I cannot have no fake people 'round me
World so cold, everything's on freeze
I ain't want no fake people 'round me
World so cold, everything's on freeze
[Bridge: WHATUPRG & WHATUPRG's mom]
Woke up (Ay mijo), chase the dream (Ese orgullo no te va llevar)
Baby, please don't wait on me (A nada bueno)
I woke up (Recuerda que el que se exalta), chase the dream (Será humillado)
Baby, please don't- (Y el que se humillare será exaltado)
[Outro: Wande]
It's so cold, it's so cold
It's so cold like ice, yeah
It's so, heh, it's so cold, heh, it's so cold
It's so cold like ice, yeah
It's so cold, it's so cold
It's so cold like ice, yeah, ayy
It's so cold, it's so cold
It's so cold like ice, yeah
