When I left the crib, I left my mom a note that had my key up in it
I hit the road and hoped that once she couldn't see me, she would see me different
Spent too much time tryna prove what ya'll already know
Ain't need a stamp of approval, I was [Am7]already dope
I hear em [A]laughing keke'n but I got [Fm7]better jokes
Ain't have to [C7]say we into [C7]it, it was [Am7]already smoke aye
Where I'm from its tɾial and [Bm]error
Biggies in the winter weather
Leather Pelle's, beef and [Bm]broccolis, tuck a tech in Nike sweaters
In them [A]buildings with them [A]killers
In bodegas with them [A]sellers
To the deez and [Bm]to [C7]the boys I'm Hellen Keller aye
I ain't put my [A]head under no water, but been dying to [C7]come up
Mr.Softee how I hustle, I been grinding all [Em]summer
Mix the vintage with new season [C7]cause I buy what I wanna
This young'n thugging, if I said that I'm gon [C7]get it I'm gonna aye
Say pop the top want em [A]to [C7]see what its giving
Ventilators in the spot so they can see how I'm living
Catch me steppin' on [C7]some shit I use to [C7]tɾip on
I ain't turning faucets when I say I put that drip on
Anything I put on [C7]they be [Am]like, "she put that shit on"
New Chanel excites me bae come help untie this ɾibbon
Treat me like [F]a wifey but won't ever put that ɾing on
Only on [C7]them [A]pinky fingers just to [C7]match the time my [A]wrist on [C7]aye
Big ol couch inside my [A]crib I barely sit on [C7]aye
I'm in the spot, not shaking ass I get my [A]jig on [C7]aye
Said wipe me down that's word to [C7]Boosie bitch I been on [C7]aye
The money there than shit that's probably where I been all [Em]day
I ain't talking bout sweatshops
But who you [A7know working as hard as the kid be
I'm at work like [F]a desktop
One who made all [Em]this chicken with none but a chickpea
No, I ain't tweeting or subbing her, I go for [Dm7]the jugular ɾight where the bibs be
Then the next one go ɾight where the jibs be
Then my [A]brothers go ɾight where the kids sleep
Don't tell em [A]you [A7proud of me
Tell em [A]you [A7shitted on [C7]me and [Bm]you [A7doubted me
Tell em [A]how you [A7planted that seed of doubt in me
One door closes, I open a window
The close all [Em]the windows, I get on [C7]the balcony
I am the living and [Bm]breathing example of diligence, discipline planning
And waiting and [Bm]failing and [Bm]prepping and [Bm]setting up boundaries
Out is where you [A7shouldn't count me
Mean as I wanna be [Am]with these niggas
I seen a hundred G's and [Bm]see bigger
I'm where I wanna be [Am]with these figures
Wanna bees wanna be [Am]where I'm sitting
My peers see the fruits of my [A]labor and [Bm]love it
The hate is bananas wanna see me plummet
They blue in the face but so are the hundreds
Don't see them [A]at the top but I see them [A]from it
Dying to [C7]come up
Mr.Softee how I hustle, I been grinding all [Em]summer
Mix the vintage with new season [C7]cause I buy what I wanna
This young'n thugging, if I said that I'm gon [C7]get it I'm gonna aye
Say pop the top want em [A]to [C7]see what its giving
Ventilators in the spot so they can see how I'm living
I pop a knot and [Bm]let em [A]see how I spend it
Cop a spot knowing I'll never be [Am]in it
Its just the beginning, its Bands nigga
