[Intro]
Yeah
(Hol' up)
[Verse]
I be in pocket most days, but I got some nutty in me
It's why I pull up in that butter Bentley
Yeah, it's that perfect balance shit that all you busters envy
And I'm still cooking shit just like my cousin Kenny
Passed the stage of thinking about who was or wasn't with me
Solo mission with my kids, I know they fuck with Disney
Cut from a cloth that guarantee we cutting history
The way these dreams is unfolding, gotta pluck or pinch me
Big D.O.L.L.A., not the little one, come and eat just like a pilgrim
Whole entire family know I wheeled them out the ghetto, but can't take it out a n***a
Every state they cop a picture
Lot of grace in my charisma, I was heaven sent
The accolades across my letterman indicative of blessings in
Touched by the man, not a reverend
All the ties that I've been severing ain't worthy to follow me in the rooms that I'm excellin' in
There's nothing fake people can offer
If they get boxed in with me, I may turn into Crawford
All this shit that's on my plate, it won't fit on a saucer
I know all this shit was written and know who the author
I get low for the Father, yeah
Not as devout as I should be
Fall victim to the flesh like I'm a kid or a rookie
Do I get in line with him, or do I get in some pussy?
And all my cousins thuggin' and they know how to boogie, huh
A lot of praise, but still a lot of sinnin
Questioning my own walk, watchin' Geno Jennings
I mastered bein' P and now I see no limits
All this pain that I didn't endure, but you won't see no grimace
I'm solid to the finish
Been at the top for a minute, still I'm the real me
I can't get caught up in the shit that didn't build me
'Cause it can kill me, more pricy then my bills be
Only my loved ones can make me feel free
I said vows just to watch it ended abruptly
Let some people in and now these n***as disgust me
I learned that a wolf could sometimes resemble a husky
Swear that they your dog, then they sell you shorter then Mugsy, huh
You live and learn, and I know it
That's why I roll with punches
With each attack, all of my gifts, you see grows in abundance
It gets spicy when a n***a get told he was munchin'
When you play with good people, your goals is the dungeon
I could never be replaced, they'll know sooner than later
A arrow pointed at who assumed it was greater
Amazing what I get in return for this labor
I continue leaving trails, but won't be for the Blazers
To the fans, man, I love you, it's unconditional
Reasons for me leaving the city's nothing typical
So it's imperative not to believe the narrative
Just know that what I left is better than what I inherited
I leave at peace 'cause I know in the end that this is business
Hope you remember all of the things you got to sit and witness
In the future, man, I hope that we greet with hugs and kisses
But you should know that they the ones who chose another mission
[Outro]
They fishin'
The fake fishin' with no reel
Hopin' the ball they dropped gets picked up
But sometimes, you gotta learn the lesson before understandin' the blessing
And we already know, loyalty always leads to big bucks
But it's funny
Because most folks would focus on the money
But we know that doesn't mean shit when you recognize the gift that's meant to give
Especially when you're from a town where you gotta go through it 'cause there ain't no way around it
You know, my cousin died at the burger spot at twenty-five and I wish he never went
Because ever since then, I been smokin' heavy and hashtaggin' his name on some quarter pound shit
So love is what we surround ourselves with
Because the fame will have some feelin' too fly, wonderin' where the ground went
So we stay wired to our kids just to keep grounded
And laugh as they get mad while tryna box us in for being too well-rounded
And bro, them solo missions are gonna feel a bit different
And on them days you can't seem to find yourself in that reflection
Remember to be kind to yourself during the self-correction
Especially when you tryna keep that ego in check while going from one scene to the next
This whole life thing is a transition
And the truth is, we wouldn't be runnin' the point if we wasn't qualified for the position
But every once in a while, that crown needs some fixin'
Especially when you're a king who's anointed
So this twenty-fourth season is me season
And we takin' what's ours because we done askin' for permission (Done askin' for permission)
