Word 4 Word

[Intro]

I started out small (Small)

Now I'm worth a couple digits (I'm livin')

Same nigga from the trenches (I'm livin')

Ain't shit change about my image (Nothin')

Ayy, you know sometimes you just writin'

Smokin' and reflectin' at the same time

Thinkin' 'bout the past, the present, the future

Talkin' to yourself, word for word

Ayy, facts

[Chorus]

True, it was bad, but could've been worse

I'm ridin' in the Hellcat, not a hearse

Took over at home, then jumped off the curb

Now all of my shows, they word for word (How you was?)

Broke so long, thought I was cursed

(Yeah I had started to think there was shit wrong with me, huh)

I got some profit off my pain (I'm up)

You hear the hurt in every verse (Ayy, listen)

Every once in a while, I gotta remind myself, I'm that nigga (Motivate me)

Every once in a while, I go back and try to help the ones in the trenches (Where I come from)

Don't really talk to the mother of my child but we fuck every once in a while (You know how it be)

I told my lil' nigga don't take it to trial, we talk every once in a while (Word for word)

[Verse 1]

He came through for me before I was famous

Banjo was trappin' on Cambridge (I remember)

Don't get it fucked up when I say I'm heartless

That do not mean that I'm painless

My guy in the feds for slangin' birds

Gone forever but that ain't what he deserved

Told him hold up his head, here go some bread

He said, "Bro, I feel dead," that's word for word (Damn)

If you made out the trenches then celebrate (Made it out, then toast up)

You know you doin' somethin' right whenever they hella hate (You on they ass out here)

Killin' the game, boostin' up the murder rate

Kill 'em with kindness, send 'em to better a place

Every once in a while, I just meditate

Might have to run this back, let it marinate (Rewind)

It's only so much of the fuckery that a young nigga can take (So much I can handle)

I'm thinkin' more learnin' and knowin' that most of this shit out here fake (This shit be fugazi)

How you gon' up and say I'm not one hunnid? You ate off my plate (You ate from my table)

Tryna convince me to crash, I never go for the bait (I can't do that)

[Chorus]

True, it was bad, but could've been worse

I'm ridin' in the Hellcat, not a hearse

Took over at home, then jumped off the curb

Now all of my shows, they word for word (How you was?)

Broke so long, thought I was cursed

(Yeah I had started to think there was shit wrong with me, huh)

I got some profit off my pain (I'm up)

You hear the hurt in every verse (Ayy, listen)

Every once in a while, I gotta remind myself, I'm that nigga (Motivate me)

Don't really talk to the mother of my child but we fuck every once in a while (You know how it be)

I told my lil' nigga don't take it to trial, we talk every once in a while (Word for word)

[Verse 2]

Had to lift up my self like the weed do

Told a couple people, "I don't need you" (I don't)

You ain't in my way nigga, you see-through (Where you at?)

Never seen the struggle, we ain't equal (Not the same)

Bitch walk around the house, hollerin' out, new nigga me

She say that shit just to trigger me

Say she can't deal with me, don't give a fuck if you don't (Why?)

Still can fuck when I want

Told all my niggas time to boss up (Boss up)

If your feet ain't planted, you get crossed up (Crossed up)

No jewelry today, put the floss up (Put up)

Thought they seen a ghost when I walked up (Couldn't believe it)

Gotta fight to live when you in that field (Real shit)

I feel for the killer, not who got killed

I'm smokin' a blunt, talkin' to the mirror (Why?)

It's the only thing that can see me clearly (Hey)

[Chorus]

True, it was bad, but could've been worse

I'm ridin' in the Hellcat, not a hearse

Took over at home, then jumped off the curb

Now all of my shows, they word for word (How you was?)

Broke so long, thought I was cursed

(Yeah I had started to think there was shit wrong with me, huh)

I got some profit off my pain (I'm up)

You hear the hurt in every verse (Ayy, listen)

Every once in a while, I gotta remind myself, I'm that nigga (Motivate me)

Every once in a while, I go back and try to help the ones in the trenches (Where I come from)

Don't really talk to the mother of my child but we fuck every once in a while (You know how it be)

I told my lil' nigga don't take it to trial, we talk every once in a while (Word for word)
