Lyrics

Someone asked me the other night what my biggest fear is, and I never really had a good answer
For it, but my answer was that all this is for nothing
Reflecting on the come up, tryna get on every record, speaking like a college professor
At a college lecture, one up myself, my wealth add another comma
Besides the zeros to hell with all the drama, all your shit is mid
I should call you D-Rose, they be telling stories and legends about me
How he rose, how I became the hero, went from living check to check
No money was on the burrow to whips and chains, I fear no more
About the future, I made sure, its secure for me and mine
When I blow up, all my neighbors gon' tell all of they friends
He used to live behind us, we used to live right next to him
Used to live two houses down, thought about sex with him
Looking at a bunch of these rappers, I am the best of them
Top five, I am the number one, and then the rest of them
No resting, it's me and them, it's me versus the world
No fussing, zero time for any kind of discussion
The way I punch it, just how I function
I'm doing luncheons with cousins that go a little deeper
Than the blood ties, some blood guys
And I find it funny, cause they all about the blue
Unlike some guys, all about the fun guys
No scuffles, never stared down the barrel of a gun, guys
Some dumb guys, cause when it comes to the rap shit
Man, my IQ, you can never get above mine
Just look at my range, all different genres on all different days
The way I'm computing this shit in my head
You would think it's enough to make me go insane
I'm over the pain, I'm sober and game
My people stay worried, they'll lose me the fame
I ride for my dawgs to the end of my days
Trust me OG, this shit stays the same
This shit stays the same
This shit stays the same
I ride for my dawgs to the end of my, end of my
Jaybug
Dawgs send the shots like a musket, the money I musket
I deceive like a pump fake, some say, jaybug you crazy
They not focused on me and my music, they looking away like they eye going lazy
But I promise one day I'ma make it and break the assumptions
Maybe doing a luncheon with they idols
Shut the mall down on arrivals
Doing shows at big ass arenas, recite my verses like the bible
But I sin when I rap, I'm homicidal
Doing it over and over again, call me Michael
Yeah they frightful, but no worries, I promise I come here to sit a day
Leadin a generation that's been misunderstood
I promise I'm here to help pave the way
Nothing gon' lay to waste, all the people that prayed on the fall
Me and my gang, they gon' pay the price, it ain't nothing nice
All the bitches attracted to seven figures, I'm not fuckin' with gold diggers
Lil' ho, you can't stay tonight
Guess what, ho, you messed up, ten hut, face front
Or however the fuck that whole saying goes
I'm pulling my bros up the mud like a marines, I'ma always be there when they laying low
I'ma always be there when they at they highs
But I'm snatching up blunt out they hands, I'm buggin' em
Cause I'm trying to be at a high, be in outer space
I don't look like the type to be getting high, Judge a book by its outer case
By its outer cover my girl and I could be cops
We constantly under covers, Thats a childish bar
Ha, guess I'm Donald Glover, then I'm on the cover
Of Variety magazine, people pay to be me
Others pay to see me, ain't it nice to be me
I do what I want when I wanna do it, wrote this shit in like 30 minutes
It ain't nothing to it, it ain't nothing like thinking for samples
In crates, it ain't nothing like being the last of the greats
It ain't nothing like showing your face to the public
And you're met with nothing but grace, it's Jaybug, it's Jay
In life, there's roadblocks
Don't let nothing stop you
Cause we ain't stopping
We gonna keep going
