(Othello on the beat)
[Verse 1]
I been grindin' (I been grindin')
Aramingo, my first job was at the Sonic (Was at the sonic)
Felt like I was missin' somethin', tryna find it (Real talk)
Know it's all about timin', I try time it (Oh)
They gon' take it as weakness you showin' kindness (Yeah)
It's Balenci' on my joggers, I got money, power (Woah)
Can't forget the nights I struggled, havin' money problems (Woah)
Isolation, I got distant, put me on the island (Go)
People tell me they get happy when they see me smilin' (Yeah, smilin')
Out in traffic, n***as dap me, they like, "Bro, you got it" (Woah)
Dealt with it, healеd from it, then I wrote about it (Ah)
It ain't what you go through, it's how you go about it (True)
Road blocks in thе way, got' go around it (Go)
Still jumpin' in the water when you know you drownin' (Go)
Still jumpin' out the plane, parachute ain't even with you
Still think about the pain, still think about the issues (Goddamn)
I was thinkin' of what I gained, He had granted me my wishes
I was tryna make a name, I was hopin' to get mentioned
Then was mentioned, then I felt like that's when n***as had the tension (Go)
Never quittin', I'm devoted, ambition, n***as trippin'
Most n***as think they know it all, so they never listen (Never)
Guarantee, you see the fake shit, if you just pay attention (Pay)
I just walked into the venue, gas stronger than an incent
Slam Dunkin' like I'm Vincent, I came back when I went missin' (Uh)
I came back I'm wearing Louis, I wear, Prada, I wear Christian
GV on the hoodie, my fault, I forgot to mention (On the hoodie though, look)
I been feelin' goodie, gettin' racks and that's my interest (I be goodie)
Top back on Benzes and I Chrome Heart the lenses (Yeah)
Start up the engine, we gon' ride to the endin' (Ayy)
All new beginnings, we gon' get through the ceiling (Come on)
Let's get back to business, we don't care about your feelings (Ah, ah)
[Bridge]
And I knew it already, it had me gone to the start
Knew it already that it was all feelin' dark
Ain't nobody gon' do it, nobody gon' do it
Seen over to the rods, it had me gone to the start
Ain't those the rules, ain't nobody gon' start
Ain't nobody gon' do it, ain't nobody gon' do it
[Verse 2]
Man, I'm tired (Tired)
Tryna find some motivation, I was uninspired (I was uninspired)
Second guessin', undecided, I ain't feel excited (Feel excited)
All this shit was feelin' fake, I think I'll go without it (Go without it)
Auntie said I need a break, I told her, I ain't stoppin' (I ain't stoppin')
I was tryna find my place but I was at the bottom (At the bottom)
I start winnin' in the race, okay, I'm feelin' wired (Feelin' wired)
It was so much on my plate, the money came with problems
The money came with bitches topless, askin', "Where your wallet?"
The money had me think it's love, but I know they flodgin'
The money have your family looking at you like you got it
If you don't give itm then they bitchin', sayin', "You ain't solid"
"Oh, he stingy with his money," now come here the gossip
Man, that n***a actin' funny, ever since—
[Outro]
Slidin' on ice, baby, to get it right
I was slidin' on ice, baby, to get it
I was slidin' on ice, baby, to get it goin'
I was slidin' on ice, baby, I told her, "Wanna roll?"
I was slidin' on ice, baby, to get it where it's goin'
I was slidin' on ice, baby, to get it where it's goin'
I was slidin' on ice, baby
I was slidin' on ice, baby, to get it where it's goin'
I was slidin' on ice, baby
I was slidin' on ice, baby, to get it where it's—
