Yo, like
Father, help me through the pain
Father, be my shelter when it's due to rain
Brought this on my self, so tell me who's to blame?
These niggas do me dirty, I can't do the same
Do the same even though I had a meaner start
Still a league apart, guess I got a cleaner heart
Miscommunication tore my team apart
Now I'm the big dog, I make the whole arena bark
Boom-shacka-lacka when I shake the room
My goons bring the whackers, I just make the tunes
Hakuna Matata when my days are blue
All of you rappers need to pay your dues
Piss my gang off then the slide off, make you meet the chrome
They'll be Thanos when they find out where you keep them stones
Brother stabbed me in my back, it really be your own
I still keep some dragons with me like I'm Peter Jones
I still keep some dragons with me like I'm Stormborne
They're screaming, "More stormz," so I give 'em more Stormz
Mandem were against man and now dem man are for Stormz
You can get your chest banged or you can' get your jaw torn
I'm that cold, niggas wanna see me back in that mode
Me and Killa skizzing on the back road
Chilling on our Jack Jones, used to keep our Rambo's tucked
And now we skiz around in Lambo trucks and watch the fans go nuts
Father God, I can't believe that this is life
Father God, I can't believe that this is mine
Father God, you brought me down to build me up
I need your love to fill me up cah nigga hate to see me shine
My city's always been a gangland
Man in the middle like I'm Bam-Bam
Coming like I'm Simba or I'm Aslan
Heart of lion man, they say I got a lion heart
You niggas just learned to fly, I got off to a flying start
This is that expensive rap, it's coming like a dying art
Long as all my people when I'm called to play a tiny part
I am not alone in this, had to share my throne in this
Had to bite the bullet just to show my brothers ownership
I'm playing my position, them old boys know I'm on a mission
They know that I don't follow no traditions
Do it like I'm Jigga, turn my niggas into moguls
Niggas tryna figure how we living through our socials
That's ridiculous, if you wanna know then come and sit with us
Fifty-fifty on some knowledge, take a split with us
Cah if you went legit with us we'd probably build a nation
Passing on the things we learn and sharing information
Always better when we stick together, came up through the grit together
If I'm ever acting up, you'd tell me get my shit together
You hold me down, I do the same for you
I hold the crown and hold the bane for you, I finish what I came to do
You know I finish what I started
Yes I dot my I's and cross my T's, I'm fully hearted
Lost some to the streets but we prefer to say they martyred
We had OGs and we preferred them to our fathers
Aight, if I ain't walking in the Holy Spirit I'm a target
Long, long time, I bought a ticket and departed
Now me and big Kuba get to bill it on the charted
I wish I had a pound for every rhythm that I clarted
Aw shit, I pray this feeling never lasts, I pray I cherish it
I pray you keep me on this path, I pray I never slip
I pray for God to really keep me in his fellowship
I bottle up and then I spill it to my therapist
It's not a healthy way of living but we living still
Tryna fill empty voids up with 7-figure deals
Sertraline and nicotine, I hit it till it heals
And that's the kinda shit to keep a nigga in his feels
Cah I coulda been a doctor, coulda been a lawyer
Coulda been a boxer like I'm Oscar De La Hoya
If I stayed at work I'd probably piss off my employer
I'm old school like Lacey-Ann al frente de todos
So it's thank you to my mother and thank the Lord above us
I'm Mister GQ when I'm gracing on the cover
Plus I'm multi-talented it's like I'm Donald Glover
Like what the fuck you talking 'bout? I'm Rachael's little brother
Straight up, word
If you were to go, I dunno
You're the only one who sweeps me off my feet

Mi sono procurato questo da solo, quindi dimmi chi è da biasimare?
These niggas do me dirty, I can't do the same
Questi neri mi fanno del male, non posso fare lo stesso
Do the same even though I had a meaner start
Fare lo stesso anche se ho avuto un inizio più duro
Still a league apart, guess I got a cleaner heart
Ancora una lega a parte, immagino di avere un cuore più pulito
Miscommunication tore my team apart

Sono così freddo, i neri vogliono vedermi tornare in quella modalità
Me and Killa skizzing on the back road
Io e Killa schizziamo sulla strada dietro
Chilling on our Jack Jones, used to keep our Rambo's tucked
Rilassandoci da soli, usavamo tenere i nostri Rambo nascosti
And now we skiz around in Lambo trucks and watch the fans go nuts
E ora schizziamo in giro nei camion Lambo e guardiamo i fan impazzire

Perché avrei potuto essere un dottore, avrei potuto essere un avvocato
Coulda been a boxer like I'm Oscar De La Hoya

Old school like when niggas used to do the dirt
Altmodisch wie als Niggas den Dreck machten

Sag mir, warum hasst du es, sie zu befreien?
Tell me why you hate to show it?
