[Verse 1: Jet 2 & Hitman]

Rockin' in the city of the lost angels

I'mma ball, this is all on my mind

All I need is a shot, kinda far from a crime

Searchin' for my other half to these rhymes

I'mma know when it's time so, I'mma keep it cool

Keep it cool like my Ciroc and ice cubes

I'm like fuck what you heard, though it's all true

Runnin' game in my fits, a law-suit

Don't get lost boo

Cause at this time, you ain't far from a stick up

Been doin' this music feelin' far from a deal

Gettin' closer to a dealer (Dilla), not J from Slum Village

Been tryin' to fund this shit, it's what happens when your funds' missin'

Gotta get it

Yeah, gotta get it 'fo somebody come up missin'

Make me wanna go harder thinkin' 'bout my children

And you niggas is faker than all my children

You're all my children, yeah

While I'm in the building, I realize they're surprised

I give an ill grin... Not because I'm sick though

Because I notice my clique go harder than a part of wood, right?

Premonition past the mic, yeah


[Chorus: Jet 2 & Brittney Jaii]

Yeah, this is past life, before we touched the mic

Before we knew what we had, right?

Before we even met and got to feel what the cash like

Before they even knew that we rap, right?

This here is that life

Before, I-"imma Be," I-I-"Imma be"

(Just pass the mic, just pass the mic, just pass the mic)

Pass it over here, y'all

[Verse 2: Hitman & Jet 2]

Okay, Hitman's on, brought the swag with that

You're nameless, blame this on me statin' the facts

Rappin' wit' my nigga that got my lyrical back

Now I moved up in Wrekless, some niggas fell off the map

Wrek-City, now yo' nigga missin' a kidney

I'm lookin' Spiffy

All about dollars, a couple fifties, pound sign 'iffy,'

Why my baby momma ain't wit' me?

'Cause I'm chillin' wit' different bitches every night

Nigga ooh

See this flow'll change her attitude if she's conceited

Back then she didn't believe, but now we're stars and she could see it

Four hundred meter dash on the back stretch, the track's ripped

The irony of buying 'we' is like a blacksmith

They bring it home like the anchor, that's the last leg of a relay

Simply cause we got the game on lock like a DJ with a keychain

At the pre-game spinnin' these records that we make

Look, we rap to burn, to cremate

All you niggas who figured to worry about who gay

Touché to go hard, ain't worried 'bout who can't

Me and Jet to blow, get ready for two tanks

Loot, bank, money, money, fucked over 'til it came

Face... The only time I'll take a dumb brain

The stu' my domain, PT to bang bang

"Come hang" a text from yo' chick's a shame

Because


[Chorus: Jet 2 & Brittney Jaii]

Yeah, this is past life, before we touched the mic

Before we knew what we had, right?

Before we even met and got to feel what the cash like

Before they even knew that we rap, right?

This here is that life

Before, I-"imma Be," I-I-"Imma be"

(Just pass the mic, just pass the mic, just pass the mic)

Pass it over here, y'all

[Verse 3: Jet 2 & Hitman]

Here we are as one

Finally united like the flight and you're a target

I'm a marksman, my department

Yeah, heavily guarded by some artists

You get set up when I'm fed up

How I turn 'em to plain targets

Yeah, Peyton Manning on offense

No longer a Colt, but still ridin' with the horses

Wouldn't get the picture if it's painted in a portrait

I double X-L, now they wonder where my source is

And my Porsche is comin' up like fork-lift

Know where I'm from? Crash courses

Hit abortion, I came out too early

But too early still came with no worries


[Bridge: Brittney Jaii]


[Chorus: Jet 2 & Brittney Jaii]

Yeah, this is past life, before we touched the mic

Before we knew what we had, right?

Before we even met and got to feel what the cash like

Before they even knew that we rap, right?

This here is that life

Before, I-"imma Be," I-I-"Imma be"

(Just pass the mic, just pass the mic, just pass the mic)

Pass it over here, y'all


[Outro: Jet 2]
