Different Times
Straight up off the block - I made the money that they praying ‘bout
Know I gave my heart - I know they proud how it panned out
Came up in the game - I made a way out wit' no handout
I never gave them time - I had to grind - I had to stand out
Now they, tuned in - got'ta listen close - got'ta feel the vibe
Now that, I'm counting paper - I'm street n***a - better keep in mind
Now I'm, out the hood but I'm still strapped - and I'm keeping mine
I came up - we couldn't pay the rent so I bought the block - these Different Times
Cashing in my grind now, paid my dues - I'm overdue
So please excuse my attitude - but that nice guy in my rear view
Keeping focus my aptitude, from the block won't having food
I did what all I had to do, had to thank the plug wit' my gratitude
Changed it up been living fine, ran it up in these Different Times
Collect and go - been getting mine, keep ya' focus - better watch the signs
Pick it up - got'ta stick and move, piling up - been sitting cool
Gave ‘em game - not getting through, ran it up - got'ta give ‘em proof
Made the money - I'm a walking prophet, gave it all - now I'm counting profit
Street n***a and I finished college, count a hun'nid and I'm really modest
Took the Oath - can't break or fold, Black and Gold - won't break the code
Got shooters wit' me and they taking souls, 100 round - these n****s bold
Straight up off the block - I made the money that they praying ‘bout
Know I gave my heart - I know they proud how it panned out
Came up in the game - I made a way out wit' no handout
I never gave them time - I had to grind - I had to stand out
Now they, tuned in - got'ta listen close - got'ta feel the vibe
Now that, I'm counting paper - I'm street n***a - better keep in mind
Now I'm, out the hood but I'm still strapped - and I'm keeping mine

Rich n***a my posture, and conversation gone cost ya'
‘Cuz a broke n***a gone cross ya', got no time for that - I'm a boss - yeah
She hate the fact I'm popular - but I'm too strapped - unbothered
Got'ta vest on wit' my guard up - like f**k the laws - I'm charged up
I know they hating - got'ta move wit' caution - cut ‘em off got'ta move wit' bosses
Watch them h**s - they pillow talking - switch it up - got'ta do that often
Gave them game - can't it break it down - I made a move - didn't make a sound
Pay the dues - got'ta pay it now - straight off the block - I made it out
They praying for downfall - trust a few - but not all
c couple had to cut off - that hating got ‘em shut off
I'm locked in - got'ta keep me focus - all in - got'ta know the motive
Follow through - got'ta put it in motion - too much money - can't even fold it
Straight up off the block - I made the money that they praying ‘bout
Know I gave my heart - I know they proud how it panned out
Came up in the game - I made a way out wit' no handout
