They Not Me

[Intro]
Look, ugh

[Chorus]
Dirt on my name, still cash my checks
I got peace and I got love and that's a flex
Gold on my neck, I got now and I got next
Been through the storm but I made it out, my God I'm blessed

I'm in a league you wouldn't believe but you couldn't see
I took a chance and I took a seed and I made tree
I'm in the sky, my head in the clouds, I can't be reached
I'm not you and you not them and they not me

[Verse 1]
I went to work, you went to prison
I wouldn't talk, you wouldn't listen
I'm with the business, grew up with killers that do it for fun like it's nothing to mention
Dope in my sock, they wouldn't give me job but somehow they expect me to stop
Finger to the cops, bending the rules when they bending the corners, shoot us on the block

I'm in the front, I got no fear
I just go enemies thinking we peers
I got too many people in the cell
I got too many thinkin' I'ma fail
I got too many thinkin' I ain't ready for it
Gave my whole life for this shit
Gave me 15 but I ain't do a day
My uncle spent his whole life in that bitch

I cried real tears when I lost
But that pain made me a boss
I took that and made me a lane
Took that lane and made me a name
I done worked for it
Bruised, beat down, and hurt for it
Put a nigga on a shirt for it
Might lay a nigga in the dirt for it

[Chorus]
Dirt on my name, still cash my checks
I got peace and I got love and that's a flex
Gold on my neck, I got now and I got next
Been through the storm but I made it out, my God I'm blessed

I'm in a league you wouldn't believe but you couldn't see
I took a chance and I took a seed and I made tree
I'm in the sky, my head in the clouds, I can't be reached
I'm not you and you not them and they not me

[Verse 2]
I got what I asked for, ugh
Livin' out my duffel got me in my bag more, ugh
Me and cuzzo used to sneak 'em out the backdoor
Top me off while I'm drivin', call that shit a crash course, ugh
I get what I want, what I'm gon' check the tag for?
In case you plottin' I stay strapped up like the fuckin' task force
Hate it when you happy, tryna steal my black joy
If they catch me, best believe that I'll be comin' back for 'em
Whoa (Whoa) whoa (Whoa)

Mr. Never Satisfied, ugh
Executin', everything I had was strategized, ugh
I ain't got no friends, just got a lot of family ties
I move with some monsters, you are just a lot of friendly guys

[Chorus]
Dirt on my name, still cash my checks
I got peace and I got love and that's a flex
Gold on my neck, I got now and I got next
Been through the storm but I made it out, my God I'm blessed

I'm in a league you wouldn't believe but you couldn't see
I took a chance and I took a seed and I made tree
I'm in the sky, my head in the clouds, I can't be reached
I'm not you and you not them and they not me
