[Hook]
Look, I'm just a n***a from the ghetto
But now I'm in the game and I'm ballin' like I'm Melo
Swish, I'm just a n***a from the ghetto
But now I'm in the game and I'm ballin' like I'm Melo
[Verse 1]
Man, I wish that I could take it all back
Young running through the hood
While I'm barefeeted with my feet all black
When my grandma tellin' me to be in by the street lights
But now I'm thuggin', going hard in this street life
Plus these p**y n***as outchea tryin' to k** me
I'm just k**ing tracks, making all these people feel me
Steady going track to track, I be going back to back
Used to be dead broke, now I'm blowing stack for stack
Gucci, Louie, Fendy, Prada – that's what I'm rockin' now
And plus my blunts be fatter than a socket now
And all the b**hes who was choosing on a n***a then
I look up, them the hoes who boppin' now
These hoes choosing ‘cause they n***as losing
And Lil' Snupe winning; this just the beginning
Kids look up to me, they say that I am they image
So tell me what the f** I look like gettin' a sentence, hah!
[Hook]
I'm just a n***a from the ghetto
But now I'm in the game and I'm ballin' like I'm Melo
Swish, I'm just a n***a from the ghetto
But now I'm in the game and I'm ballin' like I'm Melo
[Interlude]
Yeah, y'all know what's up, n***a
We ballin' over here, hah!
[Verse 2]
Look, I'm just riding in the Aston, ain't worried bout crashin'
Smoke on the loud, laughin', talking to D. Jackson
Thinking 'bout the sh** I had and how this sh** happened
Walk up in the building, I'm the f**ing main attraction
These b**hes, they be on me, all these b**hes want it
Take 'em to my hotel and I'ma f** em 'til the morning
Any n***a f** with me, guaranteed you gon lose
I got n***as with me shooting like they play for Syracuse, ah!
These n***as hate it ‘cause I made it
But I'm just chillin' at my destination
With that big 4-5, patiently waitin'
And I'ma k** you, no hesitation
n***a, I gotta get it
I'm with it, chasin' money long as I'm existin'
n***as know I'm on and I'm ballin' like I'm Melo
I'm just a young n***a from the ghetto
[Hook]
I'm just a n***a from the ghetto
But now I'm in the game and I'm ballin' like I'm Melo
Swish, I'm just a n***a from the ghetto
But now I'm in the game and I'm ballin' like I'm Melo
