[Intro]
Love ain't done yet, don't forget
It's Boopie, period
[Verse 1]
Stripes official (Yeah)
Taking off like a missile (Uh-huh)
Yeah, I'm validated (Yeah)
But it ain't 'bout no people (Uh-huh)
Ain't no number two
What it look like, a pencil? (Uh-huh)
God drawn a plan (Yeah)
Then gave me the stencil
Slide (Slide), you know I run with the pride (Pride)
All of my homies some lions
All of 'em listen to God
Never gon' meet my demise
Even with pressure applied
Even with—
(It's Boopie, period)
[Pre-Chorus]
Concrete on my name, yeah, I'm permanent
Set the record straight, put a perm in it
If the bridge built on lies, yeah, I'm burnin' it
If you at peace with your cappin', I'm disturbin' it, yeah
[Chorus]
Concrete on my name, yeah, I'm permanent, okay
Concrete on my name, yeah, I'm permanent, okay
Concrete on my name, yeah, I'm permanent
Yeah, I'm permanent, yeah, I'm permanent, okay
[Verse 2]
Nailed to the ground, ten toes down
Never shook, even in 2K
Got it from the dust, but it ain't sweet
Never shook, even in Kool-Aid
Kick me out the spot, meetin' Martin
Know they got me planted in the garden
Started with my dogs, came out barking
Started fasting, came out starving
I keep going 'til the kid's lit
If it was 'bout me, I woulda been quit
Misunderstood, I'm a misfit
Trying to dish healing, but the kids sick
Bite the bullet if you gonna bite it in the darkness
In moments I get delighted
Man, it be in the night when I get ignited
Say a prayer, let it fly like it's auto-pilot, yeah, it's time
I'm top notch, skipping squares, hop-scotch
Been like this since baby stages
Gosh, she got on Osh-Kosh
Pull up in a drop-top
Not a whip, that just mean it's the Son on me
I was dirty, had the mud on me
Now I'm washed clean, got the suds on me
[Pre-Chorus]
Concrete on my name, yeah, I'm permanent
Set the record straight, put a perm in it
If the bridge built on lies, yeah, I'm burnin' it
If you at peace with your cappin', I'm disturbin' it, yeah
[Chorus]
Concrete on my name, yeah, I'm permanent, okay
Concrete on my name, yeah, I'm permanent, okay
Concrete on my name, yeah, I'm permanent
Yeah, I'm permanent, yeah, I'm permanent, okay
[Bridge]
If you sell yourself, you ain't gon' get no change back
If you play me in the whip, make sure that thing slap
Always been an open leader, so I can't cap
Soon as I drop my pen, Jesus put me on the map, you hear me?
[Chorus]
Concrete on my name, yeah, I'm permanent, okay
Concrete on my name, yeah, I'm permanent, okay
Concrete on my name, yeah, I'm permanent
Yeah, I'm permanent, yeah, I'm permanent, okay
[Outro]
Gimme this beat, I'm molly-whopping
Charged up and steady shocking
Don't do nothin' foolish, Boopie
Understand that God watching (God watching)
