The Yellow Raincoat Pt. 5
[Intro]
Yeah
[Verse 1]
Catch me on like a light switch
Y'all n***as ain't fly, y'all simulating my flight, bitch
This is raw talent, not magic, I ain't ISIS
Ice-pick to any rapper talkin' bout his ice lit
But, then again, when you come from nothin', that shit's priceless
So, maybe I'mma need diamonds too
Still ballin' on the budget, obsolete rhymin' food
But this color that I wear is worth more than a jewel
So I switch speeds, never do I switch teams
N***as can't keep up, so I often have to switch leagues
N***as try to jack me, so I often try to switch bean-
-Stalks, I'm a giant, I wasn't tryin' for you mixed breeds
That means trouble for you muggers and you rookies
Made it out Rhode Island rappin', fuck how long it took me
I'm from a small city where n***as go to the club to meet the next
And bitches go to the club to pick a fight with they ex
It's that small, Providence, places and that's all
I served Common popcorn in that mall
Imagine what that feels like to see one of your favorite rappers in real life
And have to ask if he would upgrade from the lil' Sprite
Extra butter with that, what happened to wearin' all black?
When I was rockin' yellow, you told me that that shit was whack
But let any fuckin' rapper with the name of 'ASAP' wear it
You be on his coattail and suckin' his sack
I don't be rockin' Tom Ford, I don't be shoppin' at Saks
'Cause I remember all them lil' ways at TG Max
Back when my mother had five kids to carry on back
So, now I'm grown, and most clothes in my closet don't match
Fuck a fashionista and his black leather peacoat
Payed two G's for shoes, hookers wouldn't deep-throat
Usually I'm tryin' to save the world on my peace boat
But they'll steal your wind before you could ever leave coast (Leave coast)
[Interlude 1]
Hey
Never leave coast
'Cause I'm
Just that n***a in the yellow raincoat
[Hook 1]
Still that young n***a in the yellow raincoat
Y'all n***as ain't close, you gon' need a [?]
I just chill [?]
[Interlude 2]
Heheheh...
[Verse 2]
Check it! Life on the edge
College debt is like a bounty, put a price on my head
I ain't tryin' to life my life- life my life by the bread
'Cause I know the bakery is always run by the feds
My mother had college covered, only had to pay room and board
A knucklehead chose New York instead
The story of how I died, this is how I'm dead
My friends lookin' at the casket waitin' on me to flex
'Cause they know it's sink or swim, I'm not always ahead (No)
I knew it could be worse, I could be missin' a leg
But I'm the type of n***a to run shit
Private Yellow Coat, you would never catch me missin' a peg
GQ said yellow raincoat's the new trend
But, n***a, I be rockin' these shits since 2010
Don't smile, don't pretend, don't really need new friends
So even if you fucked a Barbie, you folks wouldn't be Ken (Folks wouldn't be Ken)
[Interlude 3]
Wouldn't begin (Wouldn't begin)
When it begins, I'll still be that-
[?] in the yellow raincoat
[Hook 2]
Still that young n***a in the yellow raincoat
Y'all n***as ain't close, you gon' need a [?]
I just chill [?]
[Outro]
Make a toast
