[Verse 1]
Ridin' around off this ginger ale
Peep the herbal essence in the papers, vapors
On fire if you couldn't tell
But trust me, I ain't checkin' for no Jezebels or Delilahs
Lot of n***as screaming that they real
Perception is a mothaf**in' pill, you a liar
I been rocking boats since Aaliyah
Trying to take it higher with these notes like Mariah
f** with me, your connect ain't got it for the Free
Start the elevation, I can't keep it lowkey
OG, finna' wake these n***as up, ain't been getting no sleep
Tryin' to bring him more sheep, I'm like little Bo Peep
What you in it for?
Cause they out here copping souls; what they hittin' fo'?
Are you the hitter or the lick? What's the difference, though?
Yeah I heard you got a plan; what's the mission, though?
Cause this game is so foul (too foul)
Got a young man trying to move through the city like a black Tom Thibodeau
Like Stallone, you can fight it all you want
But we still gonna be expendable, these n***as don't listen, no
I was always told that you never really know what you got 'til it's gone
Cancer caught my granny 'fore I got a chance to check up what the f** was I on? (the f** was I on?)
I was playing checkers, this is chess
Never put your faith into a check
Got to play the hand that you was dealt
There's only four aces in a deck, motherf**er, I've been
[Chorus] (x2)
Riding around off this ginger ale
Mama wouldn't like the way I smell right now
Realest n***a out; can't you tell?
Drink this water, tell me how you feel right now
Riding around off this ginger ale
Praying every day that I don't fail right now
Healing n***as; how can't you tell?
Drink this water, tell me how you feel right now
