How you tryna say it's not enough?
Got me upset
Uh

How you tryna say it's not enough?
Got me upset
I smoke a lot bud, how I knew a lot of love left
It's not a lot of us
Gotta proofing, lot of trust left
I'm my father's son, I gotta proof, gotta duck less
There's a Carter Bust, filata, roofs on lot of sunsets
What I'm not in touch is [?] lot of bust-heads
I be nodded up, he not the dude
It's lot of Funk Flex, they tryna copy us
They not as smooth, he tryna jump steps, they tryna body us
My poppa moved, I had to come next
Got my body up from dropping rules, I had to confess
I was not in tune, dropping juice I hadn't drunk yet

I gotta travel trough, laughed so much, dread

My akh in the pen stuck, doing chest and chin-ups
Cupid don't shoot arrows, just .223s
Fell in love with the block, Concreat'
And when the money touch my hand, feel like the block love me
I ain't geeking for cheeks
I'm tryna touch me some breesh
And split it with my dawg Mike B
Yeah

And they inspire people's spiritual layering
The thing that's important is that, um
As I said before, that I reach, whatever plateau I'm supposed to reach with that, innit?
