[Intro]
(Doe Boy, how you make this?)
[Verse 1]
Trials and tribulations, pain turned to greatness
Hard to tell people that I'm all out of favors
You see me with her, guarantee she bad, nothin' basic
Every time a n***a die, they do a fundraiser
I can't go like that, yeah, pull up in Maybach, yeah
And I'm in the back, yeah, and I'm speakin' facts, yeah
I ain't have no choice
Tell the truth through my lyrics, they say I'm the voice
Ain't never took no handout, I got it out the soil, huh
My lil' daughter bad as hell, she already spoiled, huh
Gotta run them racks in, I don't even flex it
Down South, shе say, "You from Cali? I like your accent"
On the 'Gram, thеy flexin' fake diamonds, that shit catfish
N***a like me see right through it, yeah, huh, huh
I seen n***as spectated and never played the game
Gold jackets, lookin' like I'm in the Hall of Fame
N***a like me don't do it for the fame, it's for the love
Every win, every loss, I still thank the man above
Already knowin' I only got myself when push come to shove
I'm with Nay Money, B&Es, you know how come
Overtime, I can't fall short, I need every crumb
I know I'm blessed, shit, I'm livin' lavish, I could've been a bum, huh
[Chorus]
Coverin' my war wounds in white-gold diamonds
Had to change my mindset, I really come from poverty, uh
Livin' check to check, this the cards in the deck
Say she never met a real n***a, I'm him in the flesh
N***as'll come and take your melon off, I'm careful when I step
I can James Harden stepback and hit you with the left
But I'm just gettin' started, I'm just warmin' up
On the phone, bro ventin' to me, ain't tryna kick the cup
Never wanted to have the spotlight, I like to play the cut
But it's hard not to spot me, I'm a diamond in the rough, yeah
Oh, oh, oh
[Verse 2]
Tryna cover up my war wounds in white diamonds
Fake n***as showin' fake love, high-fivin'
I know I'ma be a superstar like Billie Eilish
Every day look like it's Friday with no stylist
Car soundin' like DMX, I'm rough ridin'
Cool n***a, you get out of line, we clothesline you
I'm the voice, I hate when I gotta promote violence
Real n***a, I just hope my n***as stay solid
Uh
