[Intro: Abstract]

Yo, that's the motto

Yeah, that's the motto

Alright, here we go


[Verse 1: Abstract]

Is he a kid or a god? Just a phase or a heartthrob?

Kids get Parkinson's 'cause I make their heads nod

Yeah they got ears, don't listen so they [on the cop?]

Can't make their own style, so they all try to rap

Yeah they tell me I got room to movin' in my improvement

But everyone does, so what I got in my head is true shit

Bitch, I either use it or lose it

Y'all takin' turns, I'm on the speed, locked in

Abstract, who you know in the west who can do it better than?

Got a head and a pen 'cause I don't fuck with the [lev?]

Rather spit 'til I got nothin' in my face, turn blue instead

I'm an embarrassment to my past

'Cause my lyrics make her face red

Fuck the drugs and the feds

This right here be my mothafuckin' street-cred

If you sleepin' on the kid

I'm comin' to your house and burnin' your bed

Ain't nothin', just reppin' the 307

If I don't get the cards, then I better get the cred

Runnin' circles 'round these kids while they on their first leg

[Chorus: Drake & Abstract]

Now she want a photo, you already know, though (Yeah)

You only live once: that's the motto, nigga, YOLO

And we bout it every day, every day, every day

Like we sittin on the bench, nigga, we don't really play (Yeah)

Every day, every day, fuck what anybody say (Every, every, every day)

Can't see 'em 'cause the money in the way, real nigga, what's up? (Yeah, yeah)


[Verse 2: Abstract]

Yeah I'm in the studio while y'all too lazy

Give me two years in this, "Fuck you, pay me"

My flows like "Always," y'all like "Maybe"

Fuck the haters, I make tracks but y'all can't trace me

Like the [JH PD?]

Fuck what I said, the game gon' need me

Yeah I got cigs but no clue where the weed be

I put my heart in every line like a less-than-three in every text

Livin' off the compliments and steady gainin' confidence

I got respect for all the rappers that came before me

Hopefully, this is the life

Saw the haters tried to mothafuckin' warn me

Lookin' at these kids like, "How hard could this be?"

I'm just another voice in the crowd, yeah it's risky

Not another hand though, I own the stage

I got this good shit that got you turnin' the page

Didn't do it for the fame, I did it 'cause of the rage

But now it's okay, I speak my heart all day

Don't care if you're offended by the shit I gotta say

Forgot it in my head then when I tried to portray

Fastest in the relay

Always fast, no delay

Spit shit so fast you gon' need an instant replay

If my mind's a state, then confidence my providence

Chillin' under your bed, I'm on my monster shit


[Chorus: Drake]

Now she want a photo, you already know, though (Yeah)

You only live once: that's the motto, nigga, YOLO

And we bout it every day, every day, every day

Like we sittin on the bench, nigga, we don't really play

Every day, every day, fuck what anybody say

Can't see 'em 'cause the money in the way, real nigga, what's up?
