[Intro]
Welcome to 1stClass
Oh Lord, JetsonMade another one!
[Chorus]
Come take a ride
Just get inside, sit back and vibe
You tryna slide
I see that pain, deep in yo' eyes
These niggas snakes
Laugh in your face, it's all disguise
I spend that cake
Cause I can't take it when I die
Can't fuck with fakes
Shit, I couldn't shake it if I tried
I'm so impatient
I can't wait, ain't got no time
From rags to riches
I could never cheat the grind
Seems like the Reaper keeping time
Tryna' hit my people, 'fore it's mine
[Verse 1]
I know sometimes that street shit make you wanna crash out
But think about yo life before you flash out
He don't give no fucks, cause he ain't got nothing out here to stand on
You ain't no man, homie - you grown? then put yo pants on
I'm active in this shit, I'm gon' get hands on (yuh)
And if I did it, you ain't gon' hear it in no damn song
Oh, you don't give a fuck 'bout nothing, then you damn wrong
Cause every soldier stand for something if he stand strong
I'm tryna' run me up a check and put my mans on
And watch yo' mouth, cause disrespect - that shit don't last long
I drop a bag on niggas neck, until my cash gone
I done got steady with that bag though, so I don't think 'bout going broke
[Chorus]
Come take a ride
Just get inside, sit back and vibe
You tryna' slide
I see that pain, deep in yo' eyes
These niggas snakes
Laugh in your face, it's all disguise
I spend that cake
Cause I can't take it when I die
Can't fuck with fakes
Shit, I couldn't shake it if I tried
I'm so impatient
I can't wait, ain't got no time
From rags to riches
I could never cheat the grind
Seems like the Reaper keeping time
Tryna' hit my people, 'fore it's mine
[Verse 2]
I'm just like Ali in this shit, we can go toe to toe
They hit at us, we hit at them - we gon' go blow for blow
And I'm a shark, these niggas shrimps if we was in the ocean
Gotta put this shit in motion
I found my wave, and now I'm still strokin'
Don't let 'em knock you off yo' pivot, gotta keep your focus
He ain't really 'bout that shit he spittin' - he just talk the coldest
It's really life - that ain't my city, we walk through the smoke
These niggas bitches, they don't even know the cost we pay to stay afloat
It ain't no guides or no books to being a real nigga
Just take yo' consequences and you deal with them
You make fucked up decisions, then you live with 'em
Better keep that steel with you, it's lil' niggas in that field with it
[Chorus]
Come take a ride
Just get inside, sit back and vibe
You tryna' slide
I see that pain, deep in yo' eyes
These niggas snakes
Laugh in your face, it's all disguise
I spend that cake
Cause I can't take it when I die
Can't fuck with fakes
Shit, I couldn't shake it if I tried
I'm so impatient
I can't wait, ain't got no time
From rags to riches
I could never cheat the grind
Seems like the Reaper keeping time
Tryna' hit my people, 'fore it's mine (uh, uh, uh)
[Outro]
These niggas be creepin', they be lying
These bitches grimy, and they slimy
Don't waste my time, ain't got no time
