    Listen

    Like a bullet from a gun it burns
    When you realize she was never your girl
    It was just your turn
    You got to face your demons, don't matter how much money you earn
    Your niggas said 4L, but the shit got real and he weren't concerned
    The same old story, the world spins round and round fam
    Lessons have to get learned

    Truth has to be told, I don't bend I don't fold
    I lost count how many we sold
    I went silver, I went gold
    Then I went platinum so what's next?
    Supermodels tryna sex, sending nudes on the text
    Can't believe I used to be vex
    See it's too easy to write a sad song about how my dad raise me
    'Cause I'm looking in the mirror and my dad made me
    A real top boy I just can't play the victim
    Been living my life as a kingpin
    I'm calm with the heat in the kitchen
    I was a young boy mum told me what my name really means
    And the power just kicked in

    I found my way home
    Then I saw my granddad's name on the gravestone, the same as mine
    Already dead, nothing to fear, I been here from time
    Chief SK sipping on Palm Wine
    Everything a laugh for these niggas online
    Another one, here today, gone tomorrow
    Dick riding for some likes and a follow
    Putting the work that's all you need to buss
    Shoutout Lancey, Headie, and J Hus
    Shout 67, oh you see them with us
    We was on tour, bare weed on the bus
    Feds outside, the bus got to push to the next city, gotta rush
    Big plans getting discussed, freedom is a must
    Fuck the police, tell 'em eat my dust
    'Cause still it ain't safe, not even in a world full of cops
    I got bored of asking when is this hurt gonna stop
    We don't want to conversate or confirm with the opps

    It is what it is
    Recently I been learning a lot
    All I know is there's no better feeling
    Than getting home and seeing my little girl in the cot, so
    This year we're done talking, forget the bagga chat, it's just action
    Man are trolling to get a reaction
    Everyday it's another distraction
    Gotta fight temptation, can't get lost in the sauce
    Have I got a heart, yeah, of course
    But I had to put my feelings on pause

    'Cause like a bullet from a gun it burns
    When you realize she was never your girl
    It was just your turn
    You got to face your demons, don't matter how much money you earn
    Your niggas said 4L, but the shit got real and he weren't concerned
    The same old story, the world spins round and round fam
    Lessons have to get learned
