I'm going off
They're going off the map
All they mistakes they making I made
I coulda taught you that
I gotta watch
I gotta watch my back
They'll pull you down soon as you reach out
I cannot offer a hand
'Cause nobody offered a hand to me
Nobody offered no fans to me
Nobody wanted it bad as me
I cut off the team, I manage me
I formulated and planned the dream
At Michigan State dashing T's
And dotting the I's
All while getting the Ad degree to polish the mind
Was fuckin' on tens (fuckin' on tens)
Staying was distracted (yeah)
If I wasn't blinded by pussy I been coulda tripled the status
Like could you imagine?
I had to quit asking (I had to quit)
All of them girls in my life were lessons
I love how it happened
Loved how I took all emotional baggage
Out to Los Angeles, slowly unpacked it
Constantly writing and tracking
Made the confusion and loneliness vanish
Still only did for fun at the root of it
'Cause I would spend money on stupid shit
400 ones at the body shop with the hooligans
Throw 'em on her watch 'em fall in unison
Smack her ass with my whole savings
In the Lyft back, I was checking my balance
A negative sign next to that amount set me back further
I welcome the challenge
Wake up calls came in abundance
My lifestyle stuck on do not disturb
I hit a married women while her man was locked up
I was doing the worst
But now my ducks in a row, yeah
Felt like life had it out for me
I became one with the smoke
I was in the mud sinking
'Til my hand broke the surface
Once I grabbed what I could
I came out a whole different person now
I'm going off
They're going off the map
All they mistakes they making I made
I coulda taught you that
I gotta watch
I gotta watch my back
They'll pull you down soon as you reach out
I cannot offer a hand
Now the new view
Look to the hills
I made it shake
No hand shaking deals
Navigated the unknown with all the bros
Trusting my gut
They told me don't second guess it if it feels right
Keep going, you know you're the one
I shared a room with Teags at the start of the journey
Was brining in 30K
Now I'm a real life six figure nigga on paper
He's doing the same
I'm only hanging with bosses who know we ain't promised tomorrow
We ain't moving waste
We used to the shade on a hot streak
Success is the key to proving who's fake
Aye, yeah, can't nothing stop the run
I seen a lot of people try hard
But they try long enough
Orthodontist how I'm closing the gap
Doors unlocked opening fast
Done fuckin off
Taking this more serious than life now that my
Ducks in a row (yeah, yeah), yeah
Felt like life had it out for me
I became one with the smoke (one with the smoke)
I was in the mud sinking (sinking)
'Til my hand broke the surface
Once I grabbed what I could
I came out a whole different person now
I'm going off
They're going off the map
All they mistakes they making I made
I coulda taught you that
I gotta watch
I gotta watch my back
They'll pull you down soon as you reach out
I cannot offer a hand
