On the first track Jerreau wastes no time scratching the surface while painting a picture of his current state of affairs and perspective on life. The title references a Cole classic from “Friday Night Lights”
[Verse 1]
Uh Extendo clip extendo roll
I take an empty call log fill it with hoes
I take an empty bank account fill it with O's
I get fully dressed just to work from home
I make money moves off a mobile phone
I hunt and trap then bring It home
Big picture long play like third and long
We don't want your records or your motherfucking clothes
The more I know the more that I don't know
That's why I don't trust niggas with the give and go
No I can't trust niggas with the pick n roll
I used to ask questions now I shoot first
I mean I don't judge covers but I read 'em first
A square fit in every circle, who you keep close?
I don't need no validation from no hoes
Rough around the edges I be hard on hoes
I got no more fuck around time
I think people think that I'm on their time
The best is yet to come like your first time
I'm not rich enough not to waste time
People dying out here lives are on the line
It's bigger than Rap but it started with a rhyme
I remind myself every time still gotta retire my mom
[Chorus]
Yeah yeah yeah
Nail shops sipping champagne with my feet up
Self care take care 'cause they need us
Keep hands clean 'cause nobody going to feed us
[Verse 2]
Ugh Ugh
I was in Positano drinking like a wino
Still got the same number I ain't hard to find tho
Niggas asking where you been like I report to them
Like I don't make my own schedule like I work for them
I left corporate and I ain't looked back since
My homie opened a shop the closest that I been
He would mail me sneakers I could sell for rent
Say when, I got like you had me then
Lying to yourself the original sin
Keep everything your self I be telling my friends
The best laid schemes Of mice and men
That's why I "Never How You Plan" tatted on my leg
I was a child I had to eat what I was fed
Now I question everything 'cause I'm well read
Cancer in my moms breast they shot Brent dead
I cried myself to sleep I'm a grown man
It's a process not an event
I be hot and cold I got to vent
With my niggas who got it talking how to get it
Good defense better offense
[Chorus]
Yeah yeah yeah
Nail shops sipping champagne with my feet up
Self care take care 'cause they need us
Keep hands clean 'cause nobody going to feed us
