Come 2 Far

(album: Fortune Favors The Bold - 2023)

I get it
We need that feel again
Ayo, Dave East, this the Kid Capri
Came way too far
You came too far to turn back now, baby
Look back, for what?
We got to move the streets, they cap on us
This is light work
We do this all the time
Pablo
Ayo Dre, make sure you give them the feeling, man
Yo East, let's go
Way too far, nigga

Why would I turn back?
My status, I earned that
Exotic, we burnt that
I come from the pavement, I'm right where the curb at
Some niggas live life like the earth round
Some act like the world flat
Give me a Backwood, I bet you I pearl that
I don't know where your girl at
See, I give them thorough facts
Then niggas throw up then you know we gonna earl back
Now my passport, it look like a world map
That ain't Gucci, it's shirt cap
Them niggas that served crack
Right to the Grammys like, "How could I turn back?"
Nigga, this Harlem, the North
The sneakers, the cargos together, the shirt match
See I really burnt tracks
Never take long on the job 'cause I work fast
Remember my first stash
Trapping late nights with my cousin on First Ave
We ran outta church fast
Remember me taking communion, I wanted to curse bad
Knowing my mama would give me the world if she could
We took what her purse had
Woke up and earned cash
No butterfly jars but I had the burnt bags
Out in the field where niggas get tackled for real
You soft as a nurse pass
Feelings get hurt fast
The head was amazing, she might get a Birk bag
I'm really a dirt bag
Got me asking myself, "How long will this Perc' last?"

Fives, tens and twenties, we counting them
Nothing but hitters and women surrounding him
Jump in that water, it feel like I'm drowning, I'm over here climbing
Fuck niggas doing fuckery 'cause you allowing it
You do a job, I put you on salary
Sit at the table, hope niggas be proud of me
My plug name Diego, he fuck the potatoes
He said that's the best way to silence them
Hov said he want the lean now
Cousin told me he just got the gallon in
Dime Block there in 10th street
You don't know the places me and Fallon been
Used to losing, we just tryna win
Here I go, I could hear bully voice right now on my momma and them
It'll be a while before I smile again

Got a crib, I could hide with him
Before I ever signed a rap deal, all through the projects they acknowledged him
I'm good with pills, I used to bottle them
Xannys and Percs, now all they offer is panties and skirts
Can't get with you then your man will get murked
Pablo the shit that they put on when I need some real
On break, they be jamming at work
He caught that boy in the lobby and caught his first body
He pray that the cameras don't work
Mommy just gave me her heart and she told me that it's broke
But I'm scared I'ma damage it worst
Now on the jet with my niggas, they ask where we going
I told them to land it on First

That's a mean smash out
No kidding in the building
Dave East, making it pop
That's what's up
You know what's up
[?], we here, what's good
Keep celebrating, man
I see y'all
