[Verse]

Five years in and these fans got me thinkin'

Five years in and this drunk got me drinkin'

No chain on but my ears still gleamin'

If you want it all you better pray for and reach it

I been fallin' out with like too many people

Gave hella love just to be reciprocated with evil

I feel this shit deeply, put this Glock right beneath you

Heineken with my vision, boy the green's what I see through

Shoot a nigga in the face if he try to take mines first

But my biggest fear is gettin' shot in the face, and leave my mom hurt

I don't want no closed caskеt, I stayed away from the streets dawg

I rep thе City and the Mission, and kept the truth in my speech dawg

But if a nigga want smoke, promise I won't back down

I come from an era not known to hold back now

'99 baby, this rap is deeply invested in me

This is not Chess, so tell me how is it you checkin' me?

I might be a lotta things, but a bitch ain't one nigga

Just because I'm quiet don't mean that make me the dumb nigga

Used to be the class clown and take your bitch just for fun nigga

Got youngin's with some sticks, they like music with the drums nigga

I guess after college, I was feelin' like a failure

So I ran to music instead of paraphernalia

Smoke like hella weed, so with these raps, I'll nail ya

Coffin closed shut, 'cause with poetry I will not fail ya
