[Intro]
What ya say to me?
What ya say to me?
What ya say to me?
What ya say to me?
Lil nigga, what ya say to me?
What ya say to me?
Hey, what ya say to me?
What ya say to me?
Lil nigga, what ya say to me?
[Verse 1: Gold Midas]
Riding so low
Never know when I'll get home
2 AM riding alone
Got no time for my phone
I don’t play games on the go
Way too busy being stoned
Couple hits from the bowl
Too bad I got busted for dope
Guess I don’t know how to cope
Every time I’m awoke
I have fantasies of a rope
Leaving me strangled and choked, got me gasping for hope
Now I’m back copping some more
'Cause it keeps me away from the metal
Daily, a dance with the devil
Anxieties, trying me
Wire me, into a pedal
Pressing me, wish it would let go
In search of a level of peace
That I’d never reach
Convinced I won’t get there 'til I’m deceased
Weaving my grief up inside instrumentals
In case you were wondering dawg
I been nowhere, just floating through time
Taking L’s for my friends
Look my homie in the eyes, "Dawg, I love you
I promise you’ll never go homeless again"
That's my word, that's on God
And if God get in the way
I'ma have to put God to an end
Give a fuck what you say
Too many times I done prayed
With no answer
Ends up as a trend
Riding so low
[Verse 2: Micah James]
Never know it
Never wanted anything to do with it
Thrown in it
Had to live through it
I was high
Zooted off the notion that dude in the sky was judging me
That's why I’m through with it
Bible verses 'bout as loud as bullets
Spilling out the clip
It’s like ‘blaow’, I feel it
Got some niggas still up in that gang
And claiming that the way I’m living's like a mental illness
Fuck it all, fuck it up
Suck it up, Suck it all
What is all this commotion about?
'Cause I didn’t care when the ocean was out
I was only concerned when the tide had returned
Stretching for lessons that I’d never learn
That I was one of them yearly, nearly, dearly departed niggas who burn for something more real
Feel me dog?
Thoughts revolve 'round beautifully, frilly, soft, angelic, heavenly cries that I despised
I’ll just stay laying and wait 'til I decide to do something financially viable with my life
I rap smooth, look good, talk good
Whether academic or hood
But that's just robotics, and now I’m apathetic
And I haven’t forgotten what I should
Damn
Fuck that shit, man jump on a plane
And get as far away as you possibly can
Trynna find folks that are one and the same
But now I’m starting to think that I’m alone in this game
I don’t know
Was brought up to reach for the kingdom
But shit is something that some nigga thought of
For all of my loved ones
I wish I could unteach what somebody taught em
[Verse 3: McKinley Dixon]
Phantoms on phantoms on phantoms on phantoms
But really it’s not what you think
All my homies either dead
Or they ass is on the brink
It’s easy for your whole neighborhood to just go up and extinct
When the meteor aiming for ya world got artillery from the local precinct
We yelling that "Gang, gang, gang, gang, gang"
Hope these words pierce you
They torn through his fleece
And rang all through his brain
Recently this anger's seemed to increase
This flame gon' catch his mane
Lion rule jungle but man kills the beasts
Broke his wings' light frame
Sorry, phone anyone but the police
Excalibur, but hand not heavy enough to pull the shit out
What we do now?
Neither’s my nigga’s niggas
So we get a mischievous nigga to figure it out
Stick them feather tips right into your back
Isn’t the same
Pathetically flap
Keep that shit up, you really might crack the skyline
And nigga don’t ever look back
I’m the one, I’m the one, I’m the one
Love you daughter, sorry son
And if I make it out
I’ll send a note instructing you
Detailing how to reach the sun
He took a step
He crouched and leapt
And as he fell
He muttered words
His last breath
He said, "I never wanted to be bigger than God, my nigga, for real
I just wanted to outrun my death
And make it out of here"
