Ayy
And I'm just looking at my watch and dawg, I see the time's ticking
Killing my time, Lincoln, 'cause I know my mind's vicious
My addiction might get worse and I might itch it
When the flesh speaks, the mind listens, I might distance
I feel like Jojo's stuck in place with various stance
Got a bizzare mind, but I got various plans
Ready expand, when crap hits the fan, tell me, is you a fan?
I grown a lot and matured a lot, so I feel like I'm that man
No Lecrae, but this a misconception
We need correction
I'm tired of these bodies and these ashes we collecting
Disrespecting my heritagе, give a lot of show, we ain't perishing
Ayy, and this that Southern hospitality, 6-1-5
Feel like we pulled down by gravity
They trying to get this quick money
They not doing it tidily
Then they kill my little cousin, man, I'm tired of these casualties
Automatically, they'd rather be on a different level
They running from God and they fighting demons and devils
'Cause people really, it's working and never receive the medal
They put the pedal to the metal
We'll start damaging vessels, dang, man
1979 is when my dad arrived
He's forty-two, almost forty-five, he's so alive
I know where my roots reside
You gotta study your history
Don't let your curses turn into mysteries and now you move
Not another rapper by the chain
I'ma teach you rabbits how y'all gonna survive up in this game
I might have to dumb it down, I might have to make it plain
I'ma make it really small, so it fits up in your brain, ayy
There's a lot of shady stuff up in this industry
Gotta learn the business, man, it's way more than the ministry
Flowers ain't the only entities that you can grow, look
Just build your fan base, so you see the growth
Out of mind, out of sight, out of sight, out of mind
And it's really not the motto that I live by
It's about the car that you drive and your shoes if you fly
And that's why they just rob, just to get by
Keep it a hunnid, these kids, they running, gunning
They shooting straight at the cops
On the corner selling dope, sending threats to their opps
Never had no father to give 'em a helping hand
They looked at us adults when they was never a man
And it's all looking straight, and it's all a part of the plan
And how we really living, they would never understand
And imprisoned for petty crime, facing life many times
We gotta do better now, dog, we can't rewind
I knew that I was goated and my flow was so important
And I'm flowing, and I'm showing that my life is all recorded
And my mindset is distorted, all my promise was not sorted
In according to my rigorously mortal flow, like Kendrick goin', ayy
Ayy
