Purple Lotus
[Verse 1]
Ayo, I don't sleep, I'm a bad dreamer
I had a Jag and a Beamer when you was watching a cab meter
I always been a cash schemer
I blast ninas, spray it at your window like it's glass cleaner
We up, it's a lot of bread when we re-up
The elephant in the room that refuse to get fed peanuts
Your man got shot in his legs and beat up
Now he in the hospital bed with his feet up
Let's meet up, the ghetto is listening
I don't speak much, just grab metal and settle my differences
These n***as telling these bitches shit
Go ahead talk, n***a
That's who you gon' end up missing with, huh?
We're not the cats to beef with, pack two sticks a' piece
Like we was eating a Japanese dish, huh!
Your wife a mean bitch, with mean lips
Good head on her shoulders, she should've made the dean's list
Trust!

[Verse 2]
Ayo, I was flossin' very often, you scary and cautious
Our father-in-laws made sure they daughters was married to bosses
Very exhausting when your peeps gotta carry your coffin
So fuck a funeral, kill em and bury the carcass
Barely talking, 'cause I'm trying to clear me a fortune
Got a white shooters that remind me of Larry in Boston
For the culture, we're the ones that carry the torches
And Porsches ain't hard to tell who very important
Took risk but rarely rewarded
Made a lot of money under the table but we barely report it
My progress is yearly recorded
They said I cleared a million dollars cash from January to August
Now I'm getting various offers about business deals
Winning still but I took various losses
But y'all gon' hear me regardless
So many gators and furs that my kids scared of my closet
Trust!
[Outro]
I never had to [?]
Like, I saw opportunities growing up where I could've robbed somebody or did something bad to somebody but I always stopped
Role models, is usually what you see most of, right? It's something that's kind of perpetuated and you see and you want to become. I never saw any lawyers, doctors, right? Firefighters, never saw any of that stuff. What we always saw was the police and they came to do two things; pick up dead bodies or arrest people
