[Verse 1: Devontée]

Look, I remember sleeping on the floor with the mice though

When the window's open, only time the light show

Water in the tap, but it's never ice though

Parents tried to move me out the city somewhere nice though

Daddy brought me places, had to keep my eyes closed

See this crack up in the sack, serving fiends I know

Hit the block, to be G, smoke his weed, I know

As a kid shouldn't have seen what I've seen, I know

I knew about bitches selling pussy in the bayou

Basement I saw my first rifle

Daddy told me niggas got problems with their rivals

And my uncle told me "Like your shadow, cause you know it go wherever I go", oh

Learned a lot at Unit 65 though

Lot of lessons I applied to my life, though

I admit I did some fucked up shit by the age of thirteen, but a nigga turned out alright though

Never really smoked, I would always pass

Now I'm rolling up backwoods, lying down raps

Remember when my brother hit me on the jack

Said he 'bout to take his life and he ain't looking back

Told him "Chill, nigga, there's cops doing that"

Now they shooting at you if you is black, now they shooting back, like

*gunshots*

Black lives matter

My grandpop slanged rocks to the boys on the Harleys

Same blood flowing through our heartbeats

So I guess what we got in common

Moving bass for the white face through my heartbeats

My raps cooking new deals like they Ramen

I'm used to the pressure, no heat ever harm me

The higher-ups know that I'm a superstar, seen my time in the line and my life's on godspeed


[Hook: Devontée]

My timing ain't wrong, it's always on godspeed

My timing ain't wrong, it's always on godspeed

My timing ain't wrong, it's always on godspeed

Timing ain't wrong, it's always on, godspeed

Godspeed

Godspeed


[Verse 2: Joey Bada$$]

Tell me what they know about the great godspeed

I ain't with the talking but the gossip be

Trying to climb high where the great gods be

Running up the tree trying to find my wings

And I hope I don't end up like Icarus

Feel like I could touch the Sun and I'm sick of this, Lord

See, I don't really mean to disrespect

But tell Jesus that I'm at his neck

I'm feeling like the lord of this rap shit

I spit it from the clause, my passion

When I heard this chorus was a classic

Tell my woe keep calm, it's gon' happen

When the hour is right, and the power is love

Pray my brothers unite, we gon' run this world

They can never keep a bad thing down

I see everything and everything sync well, my nigga

Uh, my brothers bang, I was a scholar

I knew them Crips but couldn't die for the blue color

Them niggas murking, young nigga put it in their for the churches

Forgot about my purchase, wylin' when I was burking

Too young to be a thug

Well no it's in my blood, cause that nigga my cousin

Pop the gat if you budge him

Hate him, got to love him

Stationed out in public

With the bud lip like fuck it

Still hugging the block

Contraband stay tucked in my sock

Government stay loving to watch

Cause of all of this gold

And I ain't worried 'bout my timing at all

Cause you know


[Hook: Devontée]

My timing ain't wrong, it's always on, godspeed

My timing ain't wrong, it's always on, godspeed

My timing ain't wrong, it's always on, godspeed

My timing ain't wrong


[Outro: Joey Bada$$]
