Vic Mensa - That n***a lyrics

[Intro] What do you do when your dreams really start to come true? [Verse 1] Every day can be a different state when you getting paid nightly Let 'em throw salt, that's just the fire to the flame, that sh** ignite me Oh, don't you want an autograph? Give your daughter some I still keep my team on my back, cause that's where I started from My n***as know I got 'em if I ever got an obligation I read between the lies, see through the lies inside the conversation I been patient, I wrote this sh** down in my momma basement She just wanna retire, I just wanna tell her she can Look back at her baby boy like damn that's one hell of a man Tell her friends at work, repeat it and tell 'em again I'm yelling, "Yeah! Hell yeah! I got my foot on they neck" They might as well compare me to myself, I'm as good as it gets sponsored links I think about my time with the band if I would've went back and did something different Naw: I ain't trippin' I'm full speed ahead, schurr, watch I switch when I'm whippin' They used to call me Vic but now they just call me that n***a [Hook] Used to call me a f**ing failure I bet I'm looking familiar like damn he really that n***a I did it I bet your girl would be wit' it, she ain't used to know my name, now she just call me that n***a Now they just call me that n***a Matter fact, you could call me that n***a Naw, put my name in your phone "That n***a" For real [Verse 2] That n***a, been a n***a forever, don't you remember? Toured with Disclosure in January, I'll be gone till November I told my girl I'll move to Cali when I ain't had the rent up I might put 50k into options to out do n***a's income And y'all already know I wouldn't say it if I ain't really mean it My dick tell 'em my name is big, b**h I'm Willie Beamin' Beam me up, Scottie, I been thinking of heaven, I been dreamin' With dreams may come true Jermaine tests my line, I was drivin' down 69th He said, "It's Cole," I'm like, "What? Who?" It's J.Cole, n***a, I'm on tour and I want you So shouts to No I.D. f** the bullsh** Between me and you, you know you my n***a And ship know I'm that n***a It's for everything, Tunchi, Millie Mil, and Hit-Boy, too Trip, Dan, mom and dad, my fam, Natalie you my number uno, baby you know I'm your one too So you ain't gotta trip when b**hes ask for a picture They be like, "Wait are you... [Hook 2] That n***a? (Yes I am) They told me that y'all be lonely, you know me I got homies I guess that I'm just that n***a (Yes I am) Like I ain't work my a** off, had that cast on stage fresh out the hospital, my n***a Like anything is possible, my n***a They just call me that n***a You wanna know what, they just call me that n***a (Yes I am) [Outro] Yo, shout out to everybody that believed up 'til this point. I feel like I'm on top of the f**ing world right now. King Kong sh**. I fell off a f**ing bridge. I got electrocuted by like thirty thousand volts of electricity. I was in the hospital for three nights, then got on a flight to New York to go meet with Atlantic Records the day I got out. I came back, I was on stage the day I got back with a cast on my arm. That's me. Save Money still alive. You know it's like nine months ago I was in such a different place, I was in a f**ing band and everything I had fell through the cracks right before my eyes. A lot of people probably didn’t think I’d still be on my feet after that, but the only thing you can count on in this life is change. This sh** is dedicated to my pops for all those last minute flights. To Cody for putting up with my sh** and doing everything you ain't wanna do to make this sh** come to light. To Natalie for believeing in me when nobody else did. To Waxx and Ill America for helping me build the vision. To Kev and Peter Cottontale for making this sh** a masterpiece. To Papi Beats for the late night sessions. What's left to say? Haven't I said it all? Did I sing enough songs for you? Thank you. Peace. [Internet Skit] Vic! What you doin'? Get off the internet!
