[Intro]
(4reign, turn that shit up, Bleu)
Yeah
They say I’m just a jit, right?
Ayy, fuck that—watch this (brrrah!)
Who they talkin' 'bout? Not me (nah)
YBA in this bitch, huh
12 and dangerous, fuck y’all mean?
(Skrrt, skrrt)

[Verse 1]
12 years old with a mask and a mission (grrah)
Been thuggin' out the basement, now my face all in they mentions (woo)
Got kicked out school, I ain't listen, said I’m cold like Detroit winters (cold!)
I was lurkin' through the alley while they playin’ for attention (bitch!)
Fuck a TikTok, fuck a dance, I was runnin’ plays (go)
While they talkin’ back to teachers, I was loadin' K's (brrrah)
I ain’t had no time for lunch, I was schemin’ in them J’s
Now I’m eatin' off these beats, real cash, no minimum wage (uh-huh)
Bitch, I’m fearless like my daddy wasn’t thеre
Mama cried, I wiped hеr tears, told her one day I’d be rare (real)
They ain’t wanna let me in, so I kicked down every stair
Twelve and I’m a nightmare—cross me, bitch, I wouldn’t dare (bang!)

[Chorus]
Yeah, I’m 12 and dangerous (grrah), raised up off that anger, bitch (bitch)
Ain’t no safety, got my fingers where the banger is (boom)
Say I’m too young for this shit, tell that judge eat dick (fuck you)
I done seen more beef than grown men in the bricks
I’m 12 and dangerous (yeah), movin’ sharp, can't play with this (nah)
Don’t compare me to no kid, I’m on some made-for-this
Got my hoodie low, my target close, my glizzy stiff (uh)
Bet not reach inside your coat, you could get zipped, real quick (grrah!)
[Verse 2]
I remember cold nights, stomach growlin', I was stressin’ (real)
Had to turn that pain to fire, now I rap like Smith & Wesson (pow)
These old heads hate me 'cause I’m young and got a weapon (why?)
But they kids be in detention, I’m on iTunes with a section (bitch!)
Don’t play wit’ me, I got demons that applaud violence
Turn a opp to a caption, now his block silent (shhh)
They was laughin’, now I’m laughin’ while my watch diamond
YBA don’t talk to feds, I move in pure silence (yeah)
Had to learn to read the room, before I read a textbook (facts)
I was trappin' out the backdoor while you studied for that test look
I got dreams too, they just scary to these grown-ups
Twelve and I’m that threat, boy, bet not let me get my zone up (zone!)

[Chorus]
Yeah, I’m 12 and dangerous (uh), raised up off that anger, bitch (fuck it)
Ain’t no safety, got my fingers where the banger is (brrrah)
Say I’m too young for this shit, tell that judge eat dick (suck it)
I done seen more beef than grown men in the bricks
I’m 12 and dangerous (woo), movin’ smart, can’t play with this (nah)
Don’t compare me to no kid, I’m on some made-for-this
Got my hoodie low, my target close, my glizzy stiff
Bet not reach inside your coat, you could get zipped, real quick (bang!)

[Outro – Spoken Word Style]
(Yeah... they ain’t expect it)
I was just a name to 'em
Now I’m somethin' they fear
I ain’t ask to be born in it
But I ain’t run from it neither
Twelve and dangerous
And this just the start
(Bleu, cut that out—bitch)
