Elevation

[Verse 1]
Top floors, marble floors, tearing up the stores
Go to awards, it's some shit you niggas can't afford
Big rewards when I record on these chords
Executive ploy, I'm getting rich just telling my story
Niggas hate, let 'em hate, it's gon' make me great
I'm taking time with these albums, gotta make'em wait
I remember stacking thousands, pushing major weight
Now niggas went legit in a major way
And I'm 'bout to go on tour, nigga, state to state
Nigga, I used to curb serve then hit that interstate
I had to hit the pen where gangbangers integrate
Trips to Vegas to put food on a dinner plate
But now a nigga rapping, 'bout to buy a mansion
I was eight years old with dreams of living lavish
Police asking questions, I ain't got no answers
Catch me on stage with some backup dancers
Welcome to L.A., better have some manners
Everywhere I go, my goons have them blammers
You funny ass actors, call 'em Adam Sandler
Smoke Marathon OG, I don't fuck with bammer

[Chorus]
I'm hurt tryna make it but I gotta take it
25, ain't no brakes, I ain't have no patience
I had to chase my dreams, fuck a vacation
I'm tryna own a island, smoke like Jamaicans
I'm on now, got plugs with the Haitians
International Stone, I'm going different places
Definition Of Loyalty was my demonstration
Going up, nigga, all I know is elevation

[Verse 2]
Definition Of Pain, I was hustling in the rain
Tryna stack me some change, nigga, just to buy a chain
But that didn't change, the struggle still remains
So I had to switch lanes, nigga, I'm onto different things
Turning bands to M's, nigga, I know I'm him
Got it out the mud, turned that Stone to a gem
I'm 'bout to buy that new Lam', put some Forgi's on the rims
I'm getting groupie love, having orgies with some twins
You can't ride my wave, nigga, it's sink or swim
How many wished death on me? Nigga, many men
I don't need Akeem to get the Semmi in
I leave the club and hop in tints you can't see me in
Presidential tints, presidential rollie's
Riding like the president but we don't fuck with homie
Fuck Donald Trump and the crooked police
I'm tired of them niggas locking up my homies

[Chorus]
I'm hurt tryna make it but I gotta take it
25, ain't no brakes, I ain't have no patience
I had to chase my dreams, fuck a vacation
I'm tryna own a island, smoke like Jamaicans
I'm on now, got plugs with the Haitians
International Stone, I'm going different places
Definition Of Loyalty was my demonstration
Going up, nigga, all I know is elevation

[Verse 3]
My whole childhood I squabbled up with homies
Thunderdomes made me strong so I love my homies
But everybody ain't my homie, gotta watch 'em closely
I'm with the popping and the punching if niggas approach me
I come from the buildings with the rats and roaches
Now, I'm top of the charts, not to brag or boast
Now, I got gunman's with straps in holsters
I'm always watching out for them scandalous vultures
I made plays with my team, we ain't have no coaches
Just stuck to the blueprint to get back in motion
Flying private jets across Atlantic Ocean
I prayed for less, God granted more
I'm way too real with this organic flow
Should I get the Maybach, the Phantom or the Ghost?
And whoever slept on me, I'm taxing for a show
On my kids, nigga, I ain't going back to broke

[Chorus]
I'm hurt tryna make it but I gotta take it
25, ain't no brakes, I ain't have no patience
I had to chase my dreams, fuck a vacation
I'm tryna own a island, smoke like Jamaicans
I'm on now, got plugs with the Haitians
International Stone, I'm going different places
Definition Of Loyalty was my demonstration
Going up, nigga, all I know is elevation
