[Intro: Dee XCLSV]
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
[Hook]
You know we living through that
Flex life, mobbin', rollin' through the city (X4)
[Verse 1: Dee XCLSV]
It's been a dream tryna ride top down
I'm on the scene, look at all the hype now
They intervene, tryna put the mic down
But I'm swish 23 with the light now
I never go to sleep with the lights out
Babe Ruth on a hit, never strike out
On my 4th drink in the VIP, what a life now
Still tryna get the cheese, how you gon tell a n***a he never be great?
City on my back, running a different race
I knew at like 15 I had something to chase
And I ain't going back til' the family straight
I'm in the big city like
THE BIG CITY LIGHTS ON US! EVERYBODY EYES ON US!
Fell down then I got right back up
Swear to God time to pick the mic back up
[Pre-Hook: Manu WorldStar]
You know that I'm on, I'm on, I'm on
Been grindin' for long, for long, for long
Go tell my city I'm on, I'm on, I'm on
Take shots to the dome, the dome, the dome
You know we livin' through that
[Hook]
You know we living through that
Flex life, mobbin', rollin' through the city (X4)
[Verse 2: Dee XCLSV]
Said the boys all tryna push pace
My girl praying I don't scoop tingz
But I bag dimes never lose change, cos I know the club life never lose pace
We started off tryna cop chains
But I moved up onto new thangz
See we the kids of the new slaves
Switched lanes, running up the track... USAIN!
But I bossed up
Got a double cup
And a solid gold chain in the VIP now
See the new jays? See the new chain?
And the boyz pay the bill with a tip now
Cos the street credit never paid rent
A free verse never made sense
That's why I started picking up the pen
So these metaphors better pay back every God damned hour I spent!
[Pre-Hook: Manu WorldStar]
You know that I'm on, I'm on, I'm on
Been grindin' for long, for long, for long
Go tell my city I'm on, I'm on, I'm on
Take shots to the dome, the dome, the dome
You know we livin' through that
[Hook]
You know we living through that
Flex life, mobbin', rollin' through the city (X4)
[Verse 3: Kwesta]
DaKAR
I got a feeling that I'm doing well (that scares me)
I got a feeling I ain't really felt (that airs me)
I got a feeling they want me to fail (and that dares me)
And I got a feeling you feel it as well (that prepares me)
For wonke lo dod'ening fake kuwo
Yonke le polish eng'shine kuyo
Mang' ngen' eTavern nxla yi vula
Mang' ngen' eSonteni wuHalleluja
Ngathi ng'yan juta
Ngathi ng'yan linga
Like I… Do it for kicks
UDoctor Malinga
But, I'm from
No one gets outta there, pray that
You can get far away I'm gone
Far from a holiday, raised there
And you just a bar away I felt it
And I said it
And turned it to millions
Look, I knelt and I prayed, now my n***as living
Winning!
