The Takeoff

(album: The Takeoff - 2020)

I still do it on the daily
Nowadays I don't bother if it doesn't pay me
Born in the 90s but the streets raised me
Still find me with the somethings coming outta page 3
Hide your daughters I'm with lots of ballers
Give her 'nuff vitamin, I'm what the doctor ordered
And even though we out 'ere flying straight
Somehow I still feel the blocks are calling
I just wanna get bread and mind my business
Stay patterned, we forever with the litness
Every day I ask God for forgiveness
And pray it all works out but this ain't fitness
And we just working on it
Taking life as a lesson, we just learning from it
And all the things it comes with but we ain't hurting from it
Nah, I said that we ain't hurting from it

See I can't take no days off
Grind 24s, don't know about a day job
You already know hard work always pays off
And nothing ain't changed, I'm still the same boss
PhD in streetology
I swear nothing nowadays beats honesty
We tryna build empires, build colonies
Reason why when I do something I do it properly

See I ain't with the half hearted
Fully in it with anything I take part in
To reach the top ain't always a straight target, nah
Ain't always a straight target

They say I'm heartless
Just because I learned to use my heart less
I just tell 'em that it's far-fetched
The streets left me with a cold heart
And every time I went outside, I swear it got a little colder
