[Verse 1]

We so alive

Elevated my plane wit the windows down as I drive

Back on the 101, 20 miles from 65

Ain’t no diss, I think I’m the greatest from this mile

I, kept my distance when they tried to end me

I seen Charlemagne bros turn to bitches who envy

It’s too many chasin’ dreams for you really to feel me

How you say you puttin’ on and ain’t been to the city

Ain’t no let up and ain’t no relax

I might book trip to Rome just to live off the map

They always tell me that I’m next, always think it’s a trap

But once you 6 feet in the ground, ain’t no deeper than that

I had a talk wit mom and dad, now I’m watching my back

All that plug shit is dead, we still dealin’ wit Mac

We all wantin’ him back

No refundin’ for that

I want the love while I’m alive, is it too much to ask?


[Verse 2]

The duffel bag transportin’

The carry my luggage through TSA wit my jansportin

The really don’t wanna pay so I stay up all night recordin’

Youngest of 2 but it’s really 20 when I’m reportin’

Summer 14 when I started the journey

Shoutout James, had to prove to you niggas I’m worthy

To 2030 I’m shootin’ like curry

Gotta make sure they double count when they tally the earnings

Rookie of the year but I’m not new to this

Somewhere on sunset bumpin’ Jada and Ludacris

Had to kill the game now on my belt is a slew of hits

Who could’ve predicted I would leave it for you to miss

The city turning mad, now they killin’ my vibe

We was good when I was younger, now the kid goin live

Ain’t no tellin’ how they treat me, when I drop a surprise

I been here for 5

Some cold blooded killas, the squad is comprised of

And now we lit up like a BIC

Snow on the lighter

They said I had to channel orange, my vision is wider

The telecast say cloudy days but my future is brighter

Could meet the 27 club if I get any higher

Now I look down and all the oppers is under me

I’ll be here for a while, the Phoenix live for eternity

You slighting all I did, how you can’t feel my hunger?

Bitch I been plotting on this shit since Ali was YS double v

Y’all can’t fuck wit me

4th quarter made plays, no second guessin’

I ain’t talkin’ full court but I pressed it

We’ll see who still around a decade from now

Just pray the light that’s burnin now on me won’t ever run out

And that’s real

Shit, maybe too real
