Lyrics

Wake up, it's the first of the month
One nation under the gun
One nation under the gun
Wake up, it's the first of the month
Hope in my pockets, smoke in my lungs
Free all the leaders, word to the preacher
Tell 'em the victory's already won
Call the collector, scramble my funds
One nation under the gun
Scratching and surviving, stretching and remixing
They thought all this game was free, I made 'em pay attention
I can't seem to get away, get away, get away
Land of the free, home of the snakes
Moving low-key and dodging the feds
Scars on my heart, but the gold's in my head
From the Bay to LA, I'm carrying the weight
They love you, they hate you, that's how they gon' play
1600, Where the power's a flex
Writing my story, no edits, no stress
Been on the block, all I know is the snakes
They plotting on my moves and they raising the stakes
Hope's in my veins, but the system's a maze
Every step that I take, and it feels like a haze
Stretching my blessings, tryna double my wins
Lost some homies in the game, now I'm praying for them
They taxing my soul, but I'ma keep it real
Sign my name on the dotted line, blood on the deal
From the block to the White House, dodging all these traps
Got my city on my back, put my pain in the raps
Now I'm back on the grind, and I'm running up the score
They thought I'd fall off, now I'm kicking down the door
Got the money in my pocket and the smoke in the air
Every move that I make, make 'em stop and stare
1600, Where the power resides
Speaking my truth, let it light up the sky
Free my dogs, let the preacher say grace
Every scar on my soul is a story to trace
Wake up, it's the first of the month
Hope in my pockets, smoke in my lungs
Free all the leaders, word to the preacher
Tell 'em the victory's already won
Call the collector, scramble my funds
One nation under the gun
Scratching and surviving, stretching and remixing
They thought all this game was free, I made 'em pay attention
I can't seem to get away, get away, get away
Land of the free, home of the snakes
Move through the dark, where the power's concealed
Every promise they make is part of the deal
Got hope on my chest and the weight on my back
In the land of the free and the chains on my back
They watching my steps, tryna box my glow
I'm dodging these snakes, keep my eyes on the goal
1600, Where the truth gets blurred
I'm speaking my pain, every bar, every word
From the town to the Ave, I'm repping my roots
Turned my losses into lessons, now I'm flipping that truth
Preacher said it's done, but the war's still alive
I'm the king of my fate, watch me thrive and survive
I'm walking through the fire, where the vipers hide
Tearing up the stage, where the truth don't hide
Hope in the grip, in the system's device
Making all these moves, yeah, rolling like a dice
Now I'm stretching my vision, tryna break through the lies
See the pain in the city, hear the streets when they cry
Taxing my dreams, tryna dim my light
But my heart's on a mission, let it burn all night
From the block to the Ave, I'm the voice of the lost
Paid the price for my freedom, never counting the cost
Preacher said that we won, but the battle's my own
In the land of the snakes, I'm building my throne
Wake up, it's the first of the month
Hope in my pockets, smoke in my lungs
Free all the leaders, word to the preacher
Tell 'em the victory's already won
Call the collector, scramble my funds
One nation under the gun
Scratching and surviving, stretching and remixing
They thought all this game was free, I made 'em pay attention
I can't seem to get away, get away, get away
Land of the free, home of the snakes
