[Intro] You know who it is It's N0va. AKA TRACK THE RIPPER Shoutout to my boy Noise System Always bringing the fire Y'all better listen in on this one [Hook] It's been a long time since y'all heard it from NOV Etch the Blueprint in TDOT I'm earning my Home EYO It's N to the IZZO . V to the IZZAY Wasn't born in the Six but [Verse 1: N0va] Spent all this time concerned with my vision Took a wrong turn – trapped now I work for the system Book and street smart I earned my stern intuition Grabbing O's and making grams That's how we learning division Trap spots – stay low - play no soldiers game Always poker face tryna blend in where the smokers hang Composure gained – never fighting for that poster Fame Third eye open every time it see the dosier flame Carrying so much stress that I got shoulder pain Hidden secrets y'all can never find the folder name Being dopes in my blood Got no sober veins Straight stunting for these hoes without no gold and chain I paint a picture worth a thousand words Using nun more than a couple-of-rhymes All those times I hustled and grind Anectodes of couple a crimes All the pain just stuck in my eyes Prophetize when the trouble arrive I'm Optimized to be stuck in my prime [Hook] Transforming to a beast when the ba** go hard White hills on my desk like my face so scarred EYO It's N to the IZZO . V to the IZZAY Wasn't born in the Six but you know I rep my city [Verse 2: N0va] See my connect, and leave his pad with no traces If I hear sirens then its fast to the races Nothing in the bag getting wasted Cuz we smoke it all out – till we slackin in stasis You homies shouldn't brag if you basic Or get caught in a bad situation Yeah I'm talking trash cuz I'm wasted This for the people need a slap in they faces Better wake up wake up they gotta cash in they payments If lifes a game I got a hand full of aces Always find my fellow humans lack innovation Im grabbing intel report back to the spaceship My past is blurry cuz my flask getting faded We couldn't smoke at home what we w/rapped in the basement So we started whip sessions making tracks on the pavement 24/7 hustle – we lacking patience Success on my mind high standards for changes [Hook] I know It's been a long time since y'all heard it from NOV Etch the Blueprint in TDOT I'm earning my Home EYO It's N to the IZZO . V to the IZZAY Wasn't born in the Six but y'all know I rep my city [Verse 3: N0va] Focus my sound My mixtape spread like dope in the town So everything I do now's a straight poke at the crown Taking out heads like I be smoking a pound Make em swallow they pride like they choking it down Scared to be in a movie theater joking around With my girl, all the crowd faced like joker the clown It's like seen this before The News Broken it down We hear the shots going off and Croak on the ground Families couldn't cope with it now Before that happens though I wanna be quoted Cuz I'm young and devoted I'm stuck in a moment while you taking snaps to yo gram but none are in focus Stunting on media never part of my motive I do my own thing – ima be a throne king Flew out the nest before I even grown wings Ima snatch the chains and melt em so I own rings And give em all out to my squad so we can all bling [Hook] I know It's been a long time since y'all heard it from NOV Etch the Blueprint in TDOT I'm earning my Home EYO It's N to the IZZO . V to the IZZAY Wasn't born in the Six but y'all know I rep my city
