[Verse 1]
I wondering, how to get it in
How to set a presidential type of precedent
How to separate from n***as that are decadent
Declare a destination and go there is what I'm reckoning
I reckon since I was younger on the road
I knew I had I do a record and
I reckon since I felt that hunger in my soul
I had to conjure up some doe
The only way I know to settle it
You get the message yet?
You get the message of a young n***a
In that inner city situation tryna get his funds bigger
I said I wanna be the one, n***a
I told myself I said I'll never be a dumb n***a
My motivation was to taste a little doe
Procrastination is a way to never make it
So I'm steady elevating as I chase another goal
I gotta chase another goal I gotta make a ton of doe
[Hook]
Young n***as with a dream of getting money
We was all on the roadside
Used to be a fantasy but now I really want it
It's do or die my n***a
So you know I gotta keep tryna get it till I got it
It's you and I my n***a
So you know we gotta stay up in the running till we run it
Tell em I
Said I'm tryna live I ain't tryna get by
Said I'm tryna live I ain't tryna get by no
I ain't settling for less
No way, I'm tryna get it are you running with me
[Verse 2]
I was on the road, me and all my home
Boys dreaming of some dollar
Without a plan to follow its imaginary gwolla
Holla if you ever seen a lazy n***a go from squalor to a baller
I seen a n***a go from right up on the corner
To right before your honour
To lying in a cell up in the slammer
Federales got his phone deciphered the grammar
And had him in a cell before the summer
n***as out here getting wrapped quicker than a doner
Put the work in but the method isn't working
And they've got a strict aversion to this working blue-collar lifestyle
It's your life, your choice, your mother
What a bummer, collect all the money in the world you'll never get a 1-up
f** this life up n***a you'll never get another
Opportunities are looming if your prudent you can catch em if you wanna
Yeah I gotta, yeah I must, yes trust
I'm bout to take a trip with me, myself ma boys and marijuana
Yeah I gotta, yeah I must, yes trust
Then put the game up in a stunner
Suddenly these n***as wanna follow
Suddenly these b**hes get malicious when they see me with another
Suddenly these n***as wanna follow
Suddenly these b**hes get malicious when they see me with another
[Hook]
[Verse 3]
It's all or nothing for a n***a like
I was living life in that inner city situation, recognise
As a juvenile most of the sh** that I thought was important isn't now
Most of the sh** that I thought was important isn't how
I'm gonna make it out, of the kind of situation where I'm scraping out
Of the bottom of the barrel
Barricade a hater they ain't gonna take you down
I see my mother struggle and I bleed my heart for her
She came out of a nation where opportunities are vacant
To give her kids a foundation and a pa**port
The type of sh** that we don't ask for
You think that sh**s given?
That's why I shake my head when n***as f**ing with prison
That's why I shake my head when n***as acting like
They ain't got a thing to lose as if their life ain't even worth living
[Hook]
