[Intro]
Gang
I really had to rethink what I'm doing and switch up the route
I got too comfortable running around with my head in the clouds
Feel like I was lost for a second, but now I done figured it out
Keep running your mouth, 'cause look at me now, bitch
[Verse 1]
Gang, we been cut from a different cloth
Sold thirty-six from that kitchen top
With dirty hands, we don't sit and watch
I let nothing stop me from getting guap
I ain't getting got from a sitting cop
At most, the gang is still getting watched
They hit the pen and they getting dropped, like boom, boom
G9 talk for anyone planning on making a threat
I hand it back to my youngin to pay for your head
Now he getting paid to collect
Losing my brother two years ago made me upsеt
Now I let him hang from my neck
2016, I was chasing a chequе
Come '24, and I'm taking a jet, woo-woo
[Chorus]
I hit the stu' and got to work to save myself (Save myself)
Lay down a verse or two with plans to make a mill' (To make a mill')
I bet they're sat behind their screens hoping I fail (Hoping I fail)
I done took off to chase my dreams, look at me now (Look at me now)
Shit, I been trapping since a teen, I had to sell (I had to sell)
Wishing I had help while I was sitting in that cell
If I had a bill for every time I kept it real (Uh-huh)
Shit, I'd be on the mill' and bet you all be hating still
[Verse 2]
They confusing how I'm Christian when I'm talking 'bout them killings
I was raised to be an angel, but the streets made me a villain
I was drilling, now listen, I see my brothers blow a steady spilling
Got revenge, you're feeling lost 'cause of the feeling
They put money on our heads, we call that shit an off-shock
They don't have the stomach for it, get that bitch a crop top
Back then we was lurking, really urchin, get them chopped on
Now we call the shots, got them blocks taped and locked off
[Verse 3]
Shit, we still urchin, what is your purpose?
If you taking a leap of faith and you don't make it, would it still be worth it?
It's been paying off 'cause I'm working
We done private dance, a hundred a show, financial advances twerking
Are you ready to risk it, and at what cost are you willing to purchase?
Stop mucking around, that's child play
If it's only a blade like Chucky
Put on your big boy pants, I'll put him on
Pull him up with a sauna, pump it
Let me jump in, we're all strapped up
'Cause we know this ride gets bumpy
And with the vision of Fetty, turn his face like Betty, that's ugly
[Verse 4]
Uh, been this way since a teen
Catch me chilling in the tea
Weighing up and chopping up a key
I hear some sirens in the distance, I'm taking off like Need for Speed
I got some opps to turn to victims
'Cause I got hands on me like Creed
Really been on the block, repping the set
Chose my side, won't live in regret
Too many boys over there gon' slip
[? 2:25 Fight this side, scores going up, no jack]
Gotta keep my circle tight, I stay blessed
[? And .45 are stuck to stay flexed]
I'm not the type that seems to stay fazed
Fuck that, these pussy boys can stay pressed
[Chorus]
I hit the stu' and got to work to save myself (Save myself)
Lay down a verse or two with plans to make a mill' (To make a mill')
I bet they're sat behind their screens hoping I fail (Hoping I fail)
I done took off to chase my dreams, look at me now (Look at me now)
Shit, I been trapping since a teen, I had to sell (I had to sell)
Wishing I had help while I was sitting in that cell
If I had a bill for every time I kept it real (Uh-huh)
Shit, I'd be on the mill' and bet you all be hating still
[Outro]
I hit the stu' and got to work to save myself (Save myself)
Lay down a verse or two with plans to make a mill' (To make a mill')
I bet they're sat behind their screens hoping I fail (Hoping I fail)
I done took off to chase my dreams, look at me now (Look at me now)
