(Verse 1)
Roll a jay, roll a jay, roll a jay I am not a protégé
Came up with my own prototype
Ain't smoked a blunt in four days
Forward a text that I wasn't supposed to say
Pose for a polaroid, bit of nostalgia
Feel like the older days as they tally up
You ain't tell me that the opps wanna battle us
100 X (P) put an X on the calendar
Rollin' like eggs on the counter
When they fall off but I'm hard boiled
I need it like car oil, you hear this like a clairvoyant
Prepare for boardin' , takin' lift off
Took a Lyft car to her crib loft
And her lips soft, And this chick call
Did you get lost? Dip I'm Gone
(Hook)
Prodigy out shine the master
Cool with me, I'm just dying to run
Fuck around and break Law 1 (x2)
(Verse 2)
Roll a jay, roll a jay, roll a jay I am not a protégé
I'm bout to turn pro today
Ah man they throwing shade
Im bright might throw grenade
Your welcome is overstayed
Out here like a motorcade
Mike Conley, you over paid
Might con the bank Morgan Chase
Card crack skin solar ray, need exfoliate
Hope that you know it's fake
Orange on the gun like a Florida plate
Botox and a poker face
Youthful appropriate, I'm here to motivate
I got some youngins that I need to show the way
Never inspired off Insta- Always had a sense of-
Reality no need to pinch us
If I'm washed please rinse us
Radio need antennas
TCG- Golden State, pull up in Seven Tre
Rims no spinners, we born sinners
I'm in a humble gang we not beginners
We knee deep in this, shout my arch neme-
Sis, I sip henne- ssey (see) no apprentice
I got some mougal ways nobody trained us
The pressure is heavy as hockey pads
Jump over jungles y'all hopping grass
Shots you see Jordan make, same ones the Kobe make
Did on my own no one helped co-create
Pay respect to the ones before me
(Bridge)
Roll a jay, roll a jay, roll a jay, protégé 0 for 8
9th try hope and pray, night time closing day
I need to roll a jay, richotte off the wall
You need vest like Deray in disarray
(Hook)
