[Verse 1: Apes]

Let me clear my throat I'm smoking heavy pardon all the clouds

Lost in my surroundings blowing rings of roses talking loud

Blocking intersections, I'm hotboxing while I'm boxing out

Evil spirits leaking through the windows though the cops is out

And it's chop chop chop on my block when it's hot up in the summer them niggas are doing numbers it's killers pursuing hundreds and the cops watch out

Blowing pot, hope that they don't pull out a chop make a nigga pop-lock in my driveway like they did one day till that one nigga made that one nigga go away that's a throwaway nigga better stash a throwaway

Nigga family die you cry when they go away

Nigga yeah I'm mixed but I'm Henny straight

Get a sip you already ate

Cold water and head yeah I was the heavyweight auto mechanic I make a Chevy brake, water Atlantic I make a levee break

All of you panic and never wait

Rip a ton of paper still got lyrics to go saying

Shitting on my liver 'cause I'm swimming in codeine, but not a dope fiend

Fuck that niggas still don't know me

Going hard like a pimp wrote till the pen broke old school like a 10 spoke posted by the window homie

Fuck that boy we been broke homie

Tryna get that, going from the get so a bitch nigga better get back from the city of sin it breeds monsters get ya' chin cracked from the impact, pull up on niggas and hit ya' homie like it's gift-wrapped

Born wrong with the limp raps bitch niggas get torn off going hard all of my numbers is worn off better get back


[Chorus: Apes]

You gots to slow it down my nigga just pick up the pace

The tortoise the hare, ain't nobody losing in this thing but we deep up in the race

My nigga it ain't 'bout yo' skin, yo' color it ain't 'bout yo' face

Yeah, everybody talking 'bout what they gonna do, but ain't nobody keeping pace

[Verse 2: Pass, Apes, & both]

And they be like how you doing my nigga

Shit I'm solid, dipping, mobbing, nickel logic, in the pocket, cinderblock I hold it down

Posted down the block, finna rock it

Get in where you fit in listen patna, switch ya' option

But I got a lot on my mind

And I got a lot on my plate get up out of my face y'all blocking my shine

Hands on ten and two when I see 12 clocking my time if you got it like mine, I'm fucked up

Just like the niggas that we idolized in the turf

Hella patnas died from, homicide we been traumatized since birth

No biggie but, I'm going going, back back to the block and shit

Only learned 'bout love, from dealing with the opposite I'm healing but I gotta sit I'm feeling like I gotta get this shit off my chest yeah

So I roll one to the neck yeah, then I roll one to the neck yeah

Then I roll one to the neck yeah, then I go numb let me check yeah

Wait, wait a minute I been out of body I don't wanna feel a thing

Overseas came back and it's still the same

Blowing trees don't matter can't kill the pain

I been outta pocket wilding everybody telling me I need to slow it down

But it's too much, look at how he grew up screwed up look at where he going now


[Chorus: Apes]

You gots to slow it down my nigga just pick up the pace

The tortoise the hare, ain't nobody losing in this thing but we deep up in the race

My nigga it ain't 'bout yo' skin, yo' color it ain't 'bout yo' face

Yeah, everybody talking 'bout what they gonna do, but ain't nobody keeping pace


[Bridge: Pass]

They telling me to slow it down, but I can't even keep up with myself I gotta get away

They telling me to slow it down, but I don't know that means, way I'm living now

They telling me to slow it down, but I can't even keep up with myself I gotta get away

They telling me to slow it down, but I can't even keep up I can't keep up I can't keep up


[Chorus: Apes]

You gots to slow it down my nigga just pick up the pace

The tortoise the hare, ain't nobody losing in this thing but we deep up in the race

My nigga it ain't 'bout yo' skin, yo' color it ain't 'bout yo' face

Yeah, everybody talking 'bout what they gonna do, but ain't nobody keeping pace
