She s**ed my dick, and my dick stayed flaccid These n***as wanna see me get ratchet I don't think you wanna see me get ratchet I pull up to the scene high fashion Foot up on the gas, no crashin' A n***a been ballin' all madden Bumpin' Zay in my speakers and he blastin' Know he ridin' shotgun, he spazzin' Know we gotta eat, no fastin' That's why I spit this heat no dragon Fore a n***a get clipped, no actin' [Hook] [Verse 2: J $OUL] It's crazy this life... A year ago today, I was afraid of this life I'm walking on shells, like I ain't bathe in my stripes Want a piece of my pie, nah y'all ain't taking my slice They wishing me well like a penny my price Deep inside they wish I failed, like the teachers at night Y'all ain't peep the progress, n***a still I'm even keeled When I get my stuff on (Stefan), I'll leave you n***as Jahlil n***as get the stiff arm, way I'm running through the drill Like damn, my n***a you need to chill Anything happen to pop, they gon throw you in the jail But I don't give a f**, Ima tell it if it's real Watch when you getting cheese, that's when n***as wanna squeal Lawyers signing appeals, I'm boolin' ya figgadeal Really keeping me hostage, even try to make a deal Stay in school or get the cell, like my n***a what the hell ? [Hook]
