[Verse 1]
And she the type to bend me all out of shape
It's like I always fall apart before I fall in to place
And ain't a feeling worse than feeling like you fell out of grace
With the person that felt you even when you fell on your face
Remember being young and broke and making hella mistakes
Now a n***a making dough and they be selling me steak
And the quotes be so dope shit I could sell em to Drake
But I ain't never needed a cosign to tell me I'm great
I'm trynna get myself a boat and go and sail on a lake
If my n***as can't go then imma mail them a plate
I know that green gon put some n***as in a jealousy state
But dawg just lettuce worry bout if all our celery straight
You feel me?
Enough bread to get a felony scraped
You feel me?
She gimme head until my helmet escape
You feel me?
Invented shit that you could never create
You could never relate my n***a this my ebony take
You feel me?
My black queen got the sweetest of juice
With rap dreams so I sleep in the booth
I'm independent I don't need to recoup
And I don't need no people keeping me from speaking the truth
So if you see me salute
Cuz I did it without no help it wasn't easy to do
But I knew it'd be worth it soon as I completed my route
And I ain't there yet but I know I'm the leading recruit
Here's some time I know you n***as prolly need to compute
(It's Calen)
[Verse2]
I'll never get the credit I deserve and I accept it
Cuz I would rather live happy stead of dying desperate
But they can't take away all the people that I affected
From wearing my heart on my sleeve like it's part of my aesthetic
When I was young and naive I was more apologetic
But life was hectic & it turned me into quite the skeptic
And I done lost a lot of love for ppl I respected
That bitch cut me off the day they cut off my electric
But they gon play this back like I write dyslexic
Cuz when you do it doley it be twice as epic
And I been playing goalie all my life protecting n***as
That ain't never gave me close to nothing I expected
So I got rid of all my expectations
Sometimes taking a step back can be the best step taken
I spent x amount of days being left kept waiting
Out on the curb
Can't believe I gave my heart out to a bird
But back then I wasn't shit so that bitch was who I deserve
Now I don't ever wanna talk so my phone on do not disturb
And I been grinding all my life so I know I won't be deterred
Knew this shit was written in stone before ever writing a word
And if the world burns down around me
I will emerge
From out the smoke & the flames like nothing ever occurred
They can try and take my spot but my shit already reserved dawg
Can't ever figure what give these n***as the nerve dawg
