[Chorus: Sahtyre & Illmac]

All my squad, kept it solid as a brick

Ay, yeah, yeah, shoot my shot, guaranteed that’s a swish

Ay, yeah, said all my squad, kept it solid never switched

Nah, no, said shoot yo’ shot, guaranteed that’s a brick

Guaranteed that’s a brick, yeah


[Bridge: Sahtyre]

Bounce, ooh, bounce, woah

Bounce, ooh, bounce, woah

Bounce, ooh, bounce, woah

Bounce, ooh, bounce


[Verse 1: Illmac]

Show ‘em what the time is, now my shit is timeless

I might need a line just to open up my eyelids

Know I got a fine bitch, open up the popper

Open up this bottle while I open up her chakras

She loyal as a shooter, I’m thinking like a shotta

Sipping on some Ac’ right, she deservе an Oscar

Call it Kama Sutra, sweating like a sauna

What’s ya’ karma to ya’? Death bеfore dishonor

I need the bread don’t try to hand me crumbs

You squares get cut off quicker than the sandwich crust

Can’t have no fun, got a bag to run

She wanna kick it in Reseda like Daniel-san

Got the fire and the words out, fly I’m leaving earth now

Living off of trees had me higher than a birdhouse

Tryna curb doubt, took the grinding on the curb route

Got popped ain’t rat, was quiet as a church mouse, ‘cause


[Chorus: Sahtyre & Illmac]

All my squad, kept it solid as a brick (kept it solid as a brick)

Ay, yeah, yeah, shoot my shot, guaranteed that’s a swish (guaranteed that’s a swish)

Ay, yeah, said all my squad, kept it solid never switched (kept it solid never switched)

Nah, no, said shoot yo’ shot, guaranteed that’s a brick (guaranteed that’s a brick)

Guaranteed that’s a brick, yeah


[Verse 2: Chase Moore]

They not happy with themselves they could never say ‘cheese’

So I ball on ‘em like NBA Street

My family is hungry, tell ‘em get a plate, eat

Massacre the money when I love to face the beat, yuh

I keep it off the chain

Absentminded, I even lost my brain

Couldn’t find it ‘til we had a thought exchange

Thought it was a game like I played the stock exchange in the hall of fame

So they could never call me shook

We getting, all that we could like the Wall Street Wolf

But the squad keep hush, don’t ever rat on the circle

Keep it solid wit’ ya’ honor and ya’ family virtues


[Verse 3: Sahtyre]

Yeah, on God, today I smoked 90 J’s

Fuck around fade away like Mikey J

It’s a hard knock life like I’m ‘90s Jay

Pockets got fatter soon as I got yay, ah

Yeah, I be on a vibey wave

And y’all niggas been stealing since Pirate Bay

Y’all niggas been faker than Kylie face

I killed the WiFi got ya’ whole life erased, ah


[Bridge: Sahtyre]

Bounce, ooh, bounce, woah

Bounce, ooh, bounce, woah

Bounce, ooh, bounce, woah

Bounce, ooh, bounce, woah


[Chorus: Sahtyre & Illmac]

All my squad, kept it solid as a brick (kept it solid as a brick)

Ay, yeah, yeah, shoot my shot, guaranteed that’s a swish (guaranteed that’s a swish)

Ay, yeah, said all my squad, kept it solid never switched (kept it solid never switched)

Nah, no, said shoot yo’ shot, guaranteed that’s a brick (guaranteed that’s a brick)

Guaranteed that’s a brick


[Verse 4: Illmac]

Spring summer fall winter, it’s all the same

Yo, nothing but classics this go-around

Four in a row, enough classics to go around

Lost some baggage I’m in traffic I’m homebound

Don’t even feel abandoned when I land in that ghost town

I know some men who dependent and can’t be alone now

Women who measure value on which man they can hold down

Thinking back on pillow conversations we had

You always said I was special, I’m in a class of my own now

Yeah, candle burning at both ends, there’s no wick

Never had, we determined to go get and won’t quit

A code switched, now there’s no turning back

Feel like Napoleon burning his own ships, cold shit

Before I gave ‘em had to take orders

Had to work and never prayed for it

Our time passes but we wait for it

Even push some weight for it

Yuh, if I could talk to younger me I’d tell him thank you

Forgive yourself for mistakes you made, I forgave you

Can’t no one replace you, wanna be great be grateful

Those same traits you hide the same reason you gon’ break through

If I could talk to younger me I’d tell him push my limits

But even if I could back then I wouldn’t listen

Love home, you visit but can’t stay

Heads spinning I’m cool as the fan blade, I heard a fan say

I’m the greatest of all time, I told him time is manmade, treat ‘em like ya’ last days

Ain’t tryna be on socials capping

Glued to my phone while the moment’s passing

Watching people reacting to things one day with so much passion

And delete what they said the next ‘cause they ain’t know what happened

Ain’t tryna be that

Just ‘cause it happens don’t mean react

Delete the tweet but can’t get ya’ energy back

Speaking of energy

She look in the mirror and see scars while I look at her flawless

You done a lot of growing you should acknowledge

I told her do what you gotta

Don’t need to be everything to everybody and we more than what we do for a dollar

I think deeply but I act shallow

Ain’t throwing shade I just cast shadows

You can’t break us, we ain’t that fragile

It’s more than money and pussy, but that pussy is money

She break it off I make the change for her

No looking back keep my face forward

Alpha blood I got the taste for it

Our time passes but we wait for it

No looking back keep my face forward

Our time passes but

Wait for it
