[00:11.01] That '70s heroin
[00:12.37] Heron Preston
[00:15.42] Teflon
[00:21.22] I got so many kids in the game it's like a gender revealing
[00:24.34] I got that feeling, Lionel Richie, Dancing on the Ceiling
[00:26.96] Hope it resemble a Van Gogh when you paint me the villain
[00:29.67] The hate is real but you should note that the love is way realer
[00:32.20] Crafty with a pen way before I could pack 'em in
[00:34.58] Nasty with dreads, a slim teen, young, I was passionate
[00:37.12] A brand-new book cracklin' sound when you open I'm writin' gems'
[00:40.02] I make gospel in the booth it might sound like I'm writing hymns
[00:42.78] Put designer with the Timbs, wow
[00:44.68] They wanna run with my style
[00:46.10] 40-16 Building bussin' 'em down
[00:47.90] And the fiends was like employees bringin' customers 'round
[00:50.96] Hurricane waters niggas had dreams of flooding the town
[00:53.43] Weather report lookin' rainy but I skate through it daily
[00:56.46] In a new gray Mercedes, waterproof Jordan Laneys
[00:59.12] I'm sizzlin', scorchin', handsomely how they gotta pay me
[01:01.55] Every recording off the head, I'm in the studio lately
[01:05.75] Nas, Nas

[01:15.46] Take my quotes, I'm here to give hope
[01:17.97] Start a company from one of my phrases

[01:22.02] Body bags for no reason
[01:23.31] Young shit, blunts lit, slurring off of the Seagrams
[01:26.15] Hell with it, creep through the shadows
[01:27.74] Eyes wide open, tires still smokin'
[01:30.18] Brakes screechin' he's tweakin'
[01:31.25] He see himself way different than we see him
[01:33.29] He speak as if these mean streets was only his region
[01:35.92] Shit everybody's squeezin'
[01:37.48] Niggas know what I came in this game with
[01:39.43] I'm not a entertainer, that's just a disclaimer
[01:42.08] For what I'm 'bout to say
[01:43.25] Famous people sayin' they hate bein' famous
[01:45.13] Millionaires hate it
[01:46.27] People take just to feel like they made it
[01:48.07] Whoever claim that you changed 'cause the money came
[01:50.35] They'd do the same if they saw they name on a hundred thangs
[01:53.36] Pardon the haters, it's my billi' behavior
[01:55.36] If they don't say I'm the G.O.A.T, that's just silly behavior
[01:58.05] It's the ones you grew up with that's with the dumb shit
[02:00.86] They want you slumped 'cause you get love, ain't that some shit?
