What Would You Do

[Intro]
What would you do if you was me, nigga?
What would you tell me, man?
'Cause I wanna know, you know?
(I ain't being funny)
Yo
Yo

[Verse 1]
Yo, it's devastating when niggas you love show hatred
We could have all been rich, all it took was patience
And dedication, I used to spend my night getting levitated
Measuring grams, hope I don't wake up gramps
This was all a part of my plan
My struggles is what made me a man
I used to work doubles on the block, gun in my hand
I escaped poverty, I gotta be the illest youngin' of all time
I'm talking bout a life, you see I paid my own way
And earned all my stripes (uh)
And I'mma bust a move if the moment right
Nothing came overnight
My future wasn't always bright, but
When it was dark, I've still seen a light
When I'm just dreamin' right
Thinking of places I'd rather be
'Cause anywhere better than these wicked streets
Constantly ducking police
I rather be on a beach, uh
What would you do if you was me?

[Bridge]
(You know, you gotta ask yourself, man)
Just ask yourself, man
What would you do if you was me?
(Camino)
Would you fold? Would you keep it solid?
Would you what you're supposed to do
(Just let me know)
Cite yourself, nigga
What would you do if you was me?
What could you do if you was me?

[Verse 2]
Yo, what would you do if you was me?
I been hustlin' since I was 17
So ain't none of this new to me, uh (none of this)
I stay hungry, outlived my opps
They wanted me in a box
But I got smart and invested in stock
We've sent shots at niggas who hate it
We've sent [?] to niggas that made it
(This a toast for us)
Used to take the 24's, now niggas in foreigns
Only niggas in the Def Jam office with warrants
They ain't wanna see me flourish
They ain't had no choice, now my diamonds is flawless
You can't compare me to no local waters
I mean, we might had the same ambitions
Shit hit different, but you could put your niggas in position
If they willin' to listen
Niggas that took a mom will not gave 'em inches, shit
Even Kobe played the benches
Ask yourself, what would you do if you was me? (uh)
What would you do if you was me?
