High Stakes

[Intro]

Hey, yeah

Haha, I hate to put a time stamp on this, but

It's my birthday

And I'm feeling great

I feel great

Yeah, fuck it, I'm feeling great

24 today, by the way

Okay

[Verse 1]

Came a long way

(Yeah, I came a long way)

Ayy, I looked up and said "God damn, I came a long way"

In the VIP, this shit feel like a showcase

Take me to a place I'd rather be, there's no place

I got a pocket full of cash, it's more than I made last year when I was packing

Oh, wait, it been 2 years, I lost track and

No way I'm going back, I been in mansions

I been in whips so quick that you lose traction

And made 6-figure transactions

Met a lot of pretty women AKA distractions

And some fuck niggas with subliminal captions

I won't (I won't)

Show these lames no compassion

Wanna play the game, gotta have expansion

Nes sent me an e-mail, came with attachments

And like a fan of the show, nigga, I started snapping

[Chorus]

What's happening?

What's happening?

What's happening?

What's happening, oh, what's happening?

Woah, woah, high stakes got me feeling like I'm gambling (I can ball but lose it all)

Drink got a nigga rambling (Like I'm talking to myself)

But hear me out

[Verse 2]

I wake up and see a roof over my head

Used to be the roof of a '04 Audi, that shit used to be my bed

Lot of disrespect from those who used to be my friends

Lot of checks to replace those used to be friends

I don't fuck with you, what don't you comprehend?

Give a fuck who I offend, real and fake cannot blend

And I pray to God I never lose a cake, amen (Amen)

With the high stakes, I'm in

I'm in

Even with niggas after me

I still stroll through the city casually

RIP Static G

Ali gone, that's another tragedy

Oh, my God, who gon' show the kids strategy?

I done seen so many things that they gotta see

I made it to the game using honesty

I know my momma proud of me

God tell her she gave birth to a young prodigy

[Outro]

Aye

Aye

Thank you

To the most high

(High up)

(High up)

Praying that them blessings don't stop

I'm praying that them blessings don't

Yeah
