[Intro]
In the kitchen and it's Taysty

[Chorus]
Back when we started hustlin’, ain't no one think we'd shine
Feel like Jesus, they ain’t think he could turn water into wine
Loyalty like mine, yeah, that shit hard to find
Dealin' with these alligators gave me Florida state of mind

[Verse 1]
Time and time again, I look, it's hard to find a friend
Dad used to rock all the gold, I got the diamonds in
People tend to judge where you at, what kinda car you in
You could probably tell 'em the truth without the arguments
They pull up with drugs, hop in, ask, "Are you in?"
I was down to ridе like tires spinnin' on tar again
Said that you werе my shootin' star, can't see the stars again
How come showin' up for your friends could feel like martyr, man
It’s like you wait and the doctor call you in
It’s never good news, somethin' wrong with him
’specially when they ain't elevatin', they tend to draw you in
Feel like there ain't no way in hell that I could bring all you in
I made it past ’em, they was out relaxin'
They like to laugh, like drama, I'm into action
My sense of fashion wasn't orderly fashion
They call your passion an overreaction
[Chorus]
Back when we started hustlin', ain't no one think we'd shine
Feel like Jesus, they ain't think he could turn water into wine
Loyalty like mine, yeah, that shit hard to find
Dealin' with these alligators gave me Florida state of mind

[Verse 2]
Used to it, grew up 'round alligators
Run 'til I ain't able, like staples, ain't runnin' outta paper
Wiz kid, crunchin' the numbers, don't need no calculator
People tend to do you no favors then wonder how you favor
Shit ain't sweet, ask for no sugar, we ain't them type of neighbors
Drop out, I ain't go to UF, but we still run with gators
I roll with the misfits, ain't nobody made us
My pastor asked me to leave, she ain't think she could save us
They pointin' fingers, I'm tired, they signin' affidavits
I'm goin' after Goliath, I'm takin' after David
You climb a mountain this high, hard to get acclimated
They see the wins and not the work, it got me aggravated
Me and Dax, rollin' the tree, it brought me to a hiatus
All them past versions of me turn me into my latest
I say hello to my future, I say bye to my haters
They still tryna debate us, I'm still tryna be greater

[Chorus]
Back when we started hustlin', ain't no one think we'd shine
Feel like Jesus, they ain't think he could turn water into wine
Loyalty like mine, yeah, that shit hard to find
Dealin' with these alligators gave me Florida state of mind
[Outro]
Dealin' with these alligators gave me Florida state of mind
Dealin' with these alligators gave me Florida state of mind
In the kitchen and it's Taysty
