Lyrics

But can I live?
You got a problem with the kid
Bitch, Im tired of ur expectations
I dont give a shit
Lemme take u to my condo next to bandos in the west
Like a neighborhood superhero, I did not need a vest
Left my fear back in 96, lettin Jesus do the rest
Jumping over the obstacles, that they laying in my path
Learned that anything's possible once I get into my bag
Mom said ask and you shall receive, I want everything they have
I was hungry in '21, only focused on the cash
I was whipping and mixing it, just hoping not to crash
Death tried to snatch a ****, that's why I had to laugh
Get insurance for accidents, different ways to flip it back
Keep coming to the bottom, I was living offa CAP
Came off food stamps and cash assistance, they cutting off the tap
Stock up buckets of water, cuz the city could cut you off
Took me living on my own to see we cut from different cloth
Anti vax in the cypher we was tryin just not to cough
Tryna hold back the pressure but these **** was lookin soft
A1 on IG, cuz uk that I got the sauce
Buddha's burgers not taking orders used to bein a boss
Saw that people were hungry, so I took my shit to the block
Shout out federal government, revolution was being watched
know they fund it then twist the story out to sinister plots
Had to take a step back, 2 seconds were on the clock
You gotta change the pattern to end in a different spot
You gotta be committed to every word that you jot
Im insane because im truly committed, will never stop
Paranoid they want me in a ward, im tryna dodge the cops
Paranoid im living in a war, my sanity's the cost
Give me coins shit I need awards bitch I just leveled up
Whats the point of joining forces if you **** switch it up
All you **** just bore me, now im tada just linkin up
Gotta pay for BGE if you tryna meet up with us
Aint got a label yet, setting records, headed straight to the top
I felt a change had to come, Metamorphosis had to drop
Didn't come at the right time, thought that shit was a flop
Knew that shit was a classic, each track was cream of the crop
I knew you had to stick to your purpose just so you can pop
Cant see the vision from different perspectives yo
Got it from God, I just followed directions tho
Introspection, livin in imperfection
Off the words that I keep in my heart and way that I etch it
Tryta pick the game apart, he tol me that its connected
I was tryna be Mike, planting seeds in every direction
Hope Garden where I lay my head down, I must protect it
Im the sheriff in town, get the police outta my section
They wanna roll around, going to different places
They tryna slow me down, thats why you always catch me pacin
I was working on a plan, they were documenting faces
And we needed green faces for payments on green spaces
They was tryna trace it, got me back to my basics
Invest in yourself my ****, that's how you make it
Spread the wealth like its hot n you sweatin under a blanket
Where my grandma was going, she realized she couldn't take it
Inheritance, land in the south, I had to thank yeh
99 years I need a mule and an acre
400 years I needED Alla da paper
God is my peer that made Buddha ya savior
Only, the breath of life can take me to the creator
**** dyin, got them holdin they breath. Just let them hate us
I was solitary, cards in my hand, stopped doin favors
Manifest, now its all in my hand, life what you make it
