Drumwork
Yeah
(Daringer)
Uh, look
I was the most overlooked, now I'm the most noticed
Hope it's noted, this how real niggas supposed to look (uh-huh, huh)
My verse is like an open book
About my life and the niggas I shot and all the dope I cooked
Take it off the stove, don't let it overcook
You gettin' smoked, you put a hand on me
Shots run it down even if he had a broken foot
All through COVID, we still sold it by the boatload to push
Pandemic got you niggas hurtin', ain't no shows to book
Nigga, ain't no backends to collect (ha)
We shot at niggas back then, the MAC-10 was the sket (brrt)
Smart with my money now, I tend to invest
OG told me keep them feelings in your chest
Just kill 'em with your success (woo)
They gon' be sick when they vision your neck
Them pieces with the emerald sets
One-eighty for the AP with the baguettes (talk to 'em)
Got bitches on my neck like I'm Swae Lee
Signed to Shady, then hit the connect
And you know what I did with the check, my nigga
(Yeah, you know what I did with that shit, nigga)
And you know what I did with the check (ha)
Ayo, I went and got me a brick, a half a brick of some fent'
I left the kitchen a mess, I twist my wrist and I stretch
My nigga, listen, I'm blessed (blessed)
I'm Russell Wilson how I wiggle through duress
Nigga, picture me stressed, my nigga (picture that nigga)
All the cars and jewelry I bought myself (uh-huh)
My OG ain't teach me how to cook a brick, I taught myself (I taught myself)
Now I'm jumpin' out the LaFerrari, Goyard the belt
And park it right in front the May Store where all the hard was dealt (hahaha)
When I was goin' broke, them niggas never offered help
So fuck 'em, I did it all myself, Machine, bitch
It's 7xve with the crazy flow
I just paid my rent a couple days ago
But I still got a fence and ride Mercedes though (uh)
The one you thought won't be here
But oh yeah, I'm drummin' (I'm drummin')
That's word to Con, my mama proud of all that I'm becomin'
They askin' where did I come from (uh)
But my life been so crazy, I'm startled by the conundrum
'Cause I've been tryna make it since 90 something, that's dumb young
Sent me back where I come from
Now that I'm here, I ain't goin' stupid, I'm goin' dumb, dumb (yeah)
This a long way from beef Ramen
From what I speak, Simon says it makes sense to keep rhymin'
So, when you see I, know this a long way from Antwerp (from Antwerp)
And I've been fightin' with life so long my fuckin' hands hurt (my hands hurt)
And I decided to right my wrongs and wrote a jam first
'Cause if it jam first, they'll never kill me, like a cancer (uh)
In my hood, July they not surprised, it's always comin' (uh)
Found a way, like fuck it, make it nasty, put a thumb in (look)
A city full of two strikes but still give advice
They like to shoot dice
And you nice, but it gets no life
I'll probably shoot twice
I do right, they think it's impossible, that ain't logical
All my bars too impossible of my obstacles (uh)
I've been scarred, hurt, and depressed, wasn't conquered though
Now, well I'm doin' my best to send them to hospitals
Got bigger things to worry 'bout than how you say my name
One of the greatest of the day, I'm verifyin' it by my chain, 7xve
The fact I made it had rappers feeling invalidated (uh-huh)
But breakin' through for me
Was like the rose that went and cracked the pavement (what?)
I put in the labor like it's black enslavement
See these writings abolished all my uncertainties
And now them shackles vacant (come on)
I watch for niggas, they'll finesse if the situation is advantageous (what?)
Look I'm at the top that's where I had to take it (let's go)
Drumwork piece, see these diamonds is flawless
I'm grindin' regardless, my reputations highly regarded (talk that talk)
The rarest kicks, you ain't findin' these Jordans
I hit the cellar, put paper in front of 'em, like I was signin' an artist
See I just put a bullseye on my target (uh-huh)
With Daringer on production
I'm on the verse that's when you findin' a carcass (what up, Daringer?)
I'll air one like them white on white Forces
5'10, I walk in like I'm enormous (uh-huh)
They let me in the game, I lock it and vaulted (woo)
She threw me bomb pussy so I had to Laviska Shenault it (let's go)
If I record it it's dope you can sniff or you snort it (uh-huh)
You think of me, you should envision the arctic
I been the coldest I was focused back at Ocho in the littest apartment (my Ocho niggas)
This ain't a drill, this is gettin' alarmin'
I grinded hard for gold trophies, they ain't finna get tarnished (nah)
Look, the eastside raised me the shit was crazy
Summertime shootings right on Bailey guns clappin' soundin' like M-80s (bah, bah, bah)
I rose from this shit, it's gettin' crazy
You see we legends in the flesh, now is the time to give us daisies
Not later
