[Chorus]
Pop some Perkies, I'm just tryna take the pain away
I been workin’, check and see if my check came today
Pour some purple, I'm just tryna drink my life away
We don't do no nine to fives, we out here slingin’ yay
Shoot it out in broad day and we don't hide from 'em
N***as'll sell they daddy dope if he come buy it from 'em
Pop some Perkies, I'm just tryna take the pain away
Bought a brick and went and bought another chain today

[Verse 1]
My heart numb, I done came up from some crumbs
Still ain't seen my son and I shot up some day ones
I inhale the Cookies, pray it stay off in my lungs
Playin' with this powder, tryna pay off all my funds
I don’t keep up with hours, I’m just up before the sun
I can't go to sleep until I know this pack is done
I told you I ain’t got it, fuck it, put me on child support then
Can't nobody tell me how the fuck I'm gon' support them
A couple grams over, ain’t nobody got a short deal
Just make sure you tell your neighbor, "Don't you go report him"
If he don't show up with his paperwork, they gon' extort him
The goons and the goblins, you know that I employ them
Throw two back

[Chorus]
Pop some Perkies, I'm just tryna take the pain away
I been workin', check and see if my check came today
Pour some purple, I'm just tryna drink my life away
We don't do no nine to fives, we out here slingin' yay
Shoot it out in broad day and we don't hide from 'em
N***as'll sell they daddy dope if he come buy it from 'em
Pop some Perkies, I'm just tryna take the pain away
Bought a brick and went and bought another chain today
[Verse 2]
I took half
Ran that check up, then I took the other half
Let the dogs loose, you n***as do the math
This shit dog-proof, you don't know what I have
This ain't all, this just was all that I could grab
Trappin' out my auntie house, she on them tab
On my way back to the D, I'm on the slab
You'll probably die if you try to follow my path
They ain't with you if they ain't part of your staff
Helped the force in court, I watch the pressure bust his pipes
First they took his stripes, then they took his life
In this barber chair, I got this whole thirty on me
If these kids weren't here, I'd probably do you dirty, homie

[Chorus]
Pop some Perkies, I'm just tryna take the pain away
I been workin', check and see if my check came today
Pour some purple, I'm just tryna drink my life away
We don't do no nine to fives, we out here slingin' yay
Shoot it out in broad day and we don't hide from 'em
N***as'll sell they daddy dope if he come buy it from 'em
Pop some Perkies, I'm just tryna take the pain away
Bought a brick and went and bought another chain today

[Interlude]
I took half, I took half
Ran that check up, then I took the other half
This shit dog-proof, you don't know what I have
[Verse 3]
Bought some choppers, I'm just tryna take this pain away
Behind these tints, tryna find somewhere I can aim this K
Pay the rent just in case I need a place to stay
Pay my lawyer just in case he gotta make my bond
Go to the pen but it's some shit that you can't take us from
All these crooked guards and you know all it take is one
I took half
Ran that check up, then I took the other half
Let the dogs loose, you n***as do the math

[Chorus]
I'm just tryna take the pain away
I been workin', check and see if my check came today
Pour some purple, I'm just tryna drink my life away
We don't do no nine to fives, we out here slingin' yay
Shoot it out in broad day and we don't hide from 'em
N***as'll sell they daddy dope if he come buy it from 'em
Pop some Perkies, I'm just tryna take the pain away
Bought a brick and went and bought another chain today
