Yeah, yeah, I represent a time

**** rather die than get caught lyin'

And be the biggest clown of all time

See me, I represent a time

When your word was all you had

'Cause you's a reflection of your mom and your dad

See me, I represent a time

Where your heart was your position

You can speak the word of God, but will they listen? Hmm

I represent a time

When the **** we was following went to following us 'cause we done got it poppin'

Be on top until the end of time

When it's dinner time, I bet I be first at the table like a finish line

Will enable killing favor, Tip'll turn the turntables

Cain and Abel, modern day, they watch this shit like paid cable

Lucky just to have a home, even if it ain't stable

Angel mama, mom able, grandmama

Other generation's somewhere out on OnlyFans, show it to you if you paying

Toast to the good days, wonder where the joy went

Wonder if it sank with the decline of employment

A door to die, left they family here in torment (Hmm)

I been popping since BBD poison

From trapping to rapping, kick down doors, let my boys in

I represent a time

**** rather die than get caught lyin'

And be the biggest clown of all time

Be careful what you place next to your flame, yeah

(Be careful what you place next to your flame)

'Cause a spark'll turn to ashes, what a shame

(What a shame, what a shame, what a shame) Oh-woah

All you got is your two hands and your name

Then it's showtime (Showtime)

Go 'head and take it up with the Most High (Yeah, uh)

Take it up

I represent a time, bystanders get killed if you innocent

But you can probably live if you vigilant

My **** are militant, some seem to think we equivalent

Proportionally lacking with benefits, you gotta be diligent

You popping to the streets like you killing it

But when you locked up, you illegit

What happened to Benjamin? **** went from trappin' to dwindlin'

The devil take your soul in increments

I gotta begin again or start from the ending like I intend to reverse

Don't wanna be nothing I been again, so I severed the version that I lived in the dirt

I cut the cord with the curse and let it bleed in the verse

I ain't lying

I represent a time (Uh)

**** rather die than get caught lyin'

And be the biggest clown of all time
