Right, right, right, right, ayy, yeah
(Right, right, yeah, yeah)
And they told me, uh
(Ayy, and these niggas can't tell me)
And they told me
(And these niggas can't tell me nothing)
Niggas can't tell me, uh
Ayy, I'ma change this world, let me spark my weed
I'm a blessing to the dirt, let me drop my seed
'Member smoking on my lonely, tryna live too fast
I got homies in the pen that regret they past
Back when you copped your first hammer with the tape on the grip
Bragging 'bout the lil' weed you was not gon' flip
I was dying when you told me 'bout the hoes you was fucking
Turned my head the other way, you got a baby today
But know that, even last place see the finish line
This that doing your homework right before dinnertime
This that cleaning off your shoes for the first day of school
'Cause your daddy lost his job just a week ago
They don't see it, but you do
Dreams stretching from here to Venus 'cause you seen that
Them streets really be sweeping niggas that's your color like
Your blood and your brother
My grandmama told me stay up out them streets, nigga
And if you hungry, know you got a place to eat, nigga
And if you wrong, you better stare back and see, nigga
Ain't you human?
'Cause Lord knows we all make mistakes
Like it's a reason that he saw the pearly gates
Early long way, I'm just saying that we all got vices
God know that I ain't perfect, but least I'm trying
And I'll be damned if I get caught up in that life
Steady starving every night just to cover all these bills
Like what a nigga gotta do for a meal?
Nowadays, just to be, you need a million
And your homies gotta eat when they meal come
So when I get it, I'ma come back, fast with you
When I was lil', mama always used to pass wisdom
So therefore I'm never focused on the past, nigga
So make it last, nigga (Ayy, ayy)
Just make it last, nigga (And these niggas can't tell me nothing)
Yeah, uh, ayy, just make it last, just make it last, nigga (can't tell me nothing)
Uh, ayy (And my momma told me that these niggas can't tell me nothing)
Uh, I shine, uh (Niggas can't tell me nothing)
Right, right, right (Niggas can't tell me nothing)
I know, I know, I know, I know, I know (These niggas can't tell)
Uh, ayy (These niggas can't tell me nothing)
Ayy, I'm a nigga to the end, you know my mama know that
Call my granny when I can, I'm just tryna wash my hands
Show my heart to you to live and learn where I stand
The candle shining bright, but burn a hole in your hand
My mama told me dream 'til them street lights hit
'Cause when you grow to be a man, you can't think like this
I learned to understand all my problems on my head
Pray I see the homies every time I lay to rest
But if I don't, then my life on the line 'til I'm dead
It's for the bro, I'ma keep this shit alive 'cause you can't
I be broke, really tryna tell y'all how I feel
And if I fold, uh, I never fold
(I never fold) And if I fold, I never fold
Guess I'll be home, huh, I never fold
Ayy, ayy, ayy, ayy, I never fold
Yeah, I never fold, oh no
You have a good one
And make a chance to call your grandmother back
