[Intro: 6LACK]
Ayy
Woah-woah, yee
Woah-woah
Yeah (Yeah)
Woah-woah, yeah, yeah, yeah

[Verse 1: 6LACK]
Remember the days when I thought I was trapped?
Lost all my money, then I got it back
All my potential was really untapped
I had to push all my shit to the max
Now it's a wrap, took off some time to relax
Now I'm feelin' blacker than black
Know they can't tussle with us
If I say it's up, then it's up
I don't give no damn and no fuck

[Refrain: 6LACK]
Cruisin' down '20 in the all-black truck (What?)
Tryin' not to push my luck (What?)
God got a n***a on tuck (What?)
But ain't no tellin' what's up (Hey)
Devil got a funny way of showin' its face
I don't trip, even when I'm untied, I lace
I peeped at these n***as tryna vibe my way
Still on shore, tryna ride my wave
[Verse 2: 6LACK]
Crazy, I'm gon' make 'em hate me
That music, it saved me, I'm feelin' like Jay-Z
'Cause I had a hard knock life, now a n***a in the spotlight
I bet you a n***a won't try, I promise somebody gon' die today (Woo)
That is not a threat (Woo), we gon' cash a check (Woo)
2023 be the year of the family, dawg (Family, dawg)
I'm only kickin' shit with people that understand me, dawg ('Stand me, dawg)
And they do not know what this shit really takes
Since 2016, I ain't take a break
More money you make, the higher the stakes
Slow up the pace, this shit ain't a race

[Chorus: 6LACK]
I had to talk to somebody on the outside
Just to tell 'em how a n***a feel inside
(Ooh, wait, wait, talk, ooh, wait, talk, wait, ooh)
I had to talk to somebody on the outside
Gettin' rid of my pride
(Ooh, wait, ooh, wait, wait, ayy, wait, wait, ayy)

[Verse 3: 6LACK]
I had to get out my own way, yeah, say that (Say that)
Drownin' in thoughts, was stuck in the dark
Finally got my place back (Place back)
I be feelin' too much, do I need a shrink?
Slowin' me up, do I need a drink?
Or I need to think? (Ayy)
Yeah, I need to think (Ayy, yeah)
I can't just rely on the darkest of times (Times)
It's always the prime, it's all in my mind (Mind)
I'm gettin' it out and I'm hopin' to find some peace (Peace)
I'm learnin' the lessons in readin' the signs (Signs) at least
If you gotta talk, then this is your time (Time), release (Ayy, yeah)
[Refrain: 6LACK]
Cruisin' down '20 in the all-black truck (What?)
Tryin' not to push my luck (What?)
God got a n***a on tuck (What?)
But ain't no tellin' what's up (Hey)
Devil got a funny way of showin' its face
I don't trip, even when I'm untied, I lace
I peeped at these n***as tryna vibe my way
Still on shore, tryna ride my wave

[Chorus: 6LACK]
I had to talk to somebody on the outside (Outside)
Just to tell 'em how a n***a feel inside (Inside, inside)
(Ooh, wait, wait, talk, ooh, wait, talk, wait, ooh)
I had to talk to somebody on the outside (Outside)
Gettin' rid of my pride (My pride, my pride, my pride)
(Ooh, wait, ooh, wait, wait, ayy, wait, wait, ayy)
I had to talk to somebody on the outside (Outside)
Just to tell 'em how a n***a feel inside (Inside, inside)
(Ooh, wait, wait, talk, ooh, wait, talk, wait, ooh)
I had to talk to somebody on the outside (Outside)
Gettin' rid of my pride (My pride, my pride, my pride)
(Ooh, wait, ooh, wait, wait, ayy, wait, wait, ayy)

[Outro: 6LACK, Syreeta Butler]
Outside, inside
(I had to talk to somebody just to tell 'em how a n***a feel)
Outside
(I had to talk to, outside)
Yeah
In the moments when it is that deep, you talk about it. Because not everything is meant to be brushed over, or you know, we gotta take the high road, it's like, in those moments when it really does kinda look deeper, like you know that you don't care, it's like, no, no, no. I can't let this, this one go by, I'm not gonna do that
