HEAD$HOT.

[Intro]

Seen pain onna gangway but I take pain & I paint pictures
Gave game to the fake niggas
Paved way for the lane switchers
Gang gang still the same even when the fame tell em they should change, nigga
I done seen the game change niggas, so I’m hesitant to get my name bigger but

[Chorus]

If they want the smoke we give it to em headfirst
Headshots, spit and let the lead burst
They ain't know my story till they sent the feds first
And it checked out, ran it till my legs hurt
I been knockin on the door, I’m a nuisance
Ion need your two cents, been had the blueprint, I’m
In the cut, jig is up, I don’t do friends
Especially not no new friends, never leave a loose end

[Verse 1]

I been runnin to a check like I’m Usain
Doubled output, spit like I got two brains
Introduce ya wifey & she leavin wit a new name
She don’t know my music but she seen me next to 2 Chainz
Zoomin Lower Wacker in my whip, I feel like Bruce Wayne
Chewin up the food chain, coolin where the boots hang
I be in the books & gettin booked, and that’s just two lanes
My moves like a highway
So they say they wanna ride, but they ridin my wave
And I gotta keep an eye on who in the driveway
Once they see you on the grind, niggas up the crime rate
I don’t mind hate, but these niggas plottijn got me paranoid & irate, so

[Chorus]

If they want the smoke we give it to em headfirst
Headshots, spit and let the lead burst
They ain't know my story till they sent the feds first
And it checked out, ran it till my legs hurt
I been knockin on the door, I’m a nuisance
Ion need your two cents, been had the blueprint, I’m
In the cut, jig is up, I don’t do friends
Especially not no new friends, never leave a loose end

{Alan Watts: Bridge]

And you would, naturally, as you began on this adventure of dreams, you would fulfill all your wishes. You would have every kind of pleasure you could conceive. And after several nights, you would say, "Wow, that was pretty great!" But now, let's, um... Let's have a surprise. Let's have a dream which isn't under control

[Verse 2]

But I lost some niggas in the city where it ain’t no smoke, and they popped Quantis out in West Town
So how I’m finna flex, say the city ain’t a mess when my daddy and my mama outwest now?
It be shots all week & it’s cold outside, the winter gettin hot like school out
And it’s shooters in the school, in the crib, in the church, in the hospital, what we finna do, what’s the move now?
I don’t wanna duck much, but it’s Duck Hunt on the avenues & the boulevards, and I ain’t a stain but I made a name so I’m livin as a target
And I’m feelin like it’s my time, like I’m top 5 in the city with the hardest, but if even Mercy ain’t safe, well then, Lord have mercy, I’m tryna go the farthest, I
Can’t run from nothin, I’m movin smarter, I’m workin harder
I’m more efficient, I’m flashin less and I’m in the heart of every lil arena I been a part of, I’m puttin on
Puttin out this fire, I’m fire startin, I’m comin home
But comin home to what?
To niggas jealous, overzealous, tryna sell us dreams, plus I ain’t home as much
I hope my sister get to DC soon
Cuz these niggas been tweakin, no reason recently reachin, no season is decent
Look, when I live my dreams, it ain’t always good things
And when I’m peepin scene, it ain’t always hood things
Plus they gon gentrify soon as they say it’s bad enough
Coincidentally displacing everyone who’s had enough of bodies really adding up
Double the response time, five ties the convictions with no confident lifeline
Flows all in a pipeline, now your mans in lockup, rappin inside a box with no beat he can flow on top of what’s
The difference between reality, dreams, eventualities and the nightmares that become of them?
Ain’t you ever went to sleep and seen a scene so vivid that you felt the people close to you and swore that you was one of them?
Woke and had to question what was up and if you up enough
And if the thing you had would make you happier than real life?
What’s the thing you wanted most, asleep or in between states that you would give the present just to tell us what it feel like? I’m
Just tryna wake up
Just tryna wake up
It’s all a silent asylum inside, try as I might, I'm
Just tryna wake up

I'm in the cut, jig is up, I don't do, do
Especially not no new friends, never leave a loose end
