Lord I'm just calling for you, you know I don't ask a lot
I just want to do it big til' the casket drop
Water diamonds for the time they left my ass to dry
And we won't kill 'em, make they asses watch
Picture a young nigga
Wrinkles in his uniform, fucked up, tennis shoes
Curly hair, gap tooth
Stayed in the principal's
Swear they labeled me a trouble child before middle school
Mama on the road and my father was invisible
She used to whoop my ass like every day
It wasn't get it through
She asked "Is you gone be a statistic or you gone be a you?"
That was round the same time that my nigga D moved
Headed back to 'Bama cause he said he needed breathing room
Came back every summer with the CD, MP3 we booming
Bumping all his own shit
Gucci, Webbie, Weezy, Boosie
Swear I used to hear it
In my head, man that shit was movies
I fell in love before I knew it
Quiet nigga, but I knew I could spit the smoothest
Used to hide it cause them older niggas didn't approve it
Family full of Christians, break tradition
Is you stupid?
Well the pastor told me if you got a gift then use it (damn)
He said if you got a gift then use it
Was always hard headed, why you say I couldn't do it (damn)
Now I guess I gotta prove it
As I bow my head and close my pupils
Lord I'm just calling for you, you know I don't ask a lot
I just want to do it big til' the casket drop
Water diamonds for the time they left my ass to dry
And we won't kill 'em, make they asses watch (Lord, look)
You know I don't ask a lot
I just wanna' do it big til' the casket drop
Chicks, whips, switch lanes
While we dash the the cops
And put my niggas in them matching drops
Til' the casket drop (yea)
Til' the casket drop
I just want to do it big til' the casket drop
Water diamonds for the time they left my ass to dry
And we won't kill 'em, make they asses watch
And I know I been
Living wicked, sinning shit
I swear my conscious stained
Shoulder blades pinned against the fence
I had to find a way
Knew this shit was coming
I just wasn't sure the time and place
Niggas ain't believe me
I was cocky just to compensate
I starved while they ate
They carved gashes in my back and smiled in my face
You ever been down bad? You know the risk you take?
Cross town haulin' ass, tryna' fill the safe
All I had was my mama, music, and the gang
I'm just speaking truths, infusing every line with pain
This one for the road runners with no time to waste
Keep this shit a whole hundred and don't stop the chase
Til' the casket drop
Lord I'm just calling on you, you know I don't ask a lot
I just want to do it big til' the casket drop
Water diamonds for the time they left my ass to dry
And we won't kill 'em, make they asses watch (yea, look)
You know I don't ask a lot
I just wanna' do it big till the casket drop
Chicks, whips, switch lanes
While we dash the the cops
And put my niggas in them matching drops
That's til' the casket drop
Yea you know I don't ask alot
I just want to do it big til' the casket drop
Water diamonds for the time they left my ass to dry
And we won't kill 'em, make they asses watch (yea)
