[Intro]

Yeah. Yeah

C'mon

Man. I just do what the doers do

C'mon. Yeah. You heard the man

I just do what the doers do


[Verse 1]

Now I been makin' hits since underage

Contract intact, can't be underpaid

This ain't a game I ain't fun to play

Don't front for me, I ain't from the A

Don't you wanna hear what I come to say?

This just a kid, you know me from before

Prices go up when I come in the store

I'm in another island in a bungalow

Evisu down to my underclose

Ate like a cat that was undersold

I give and get it back in a hundred fold

I feel like a man that was from the road

And y'all know that I will bring you out

And what I'm talkin', you don't know a thing about

Bring Modenas out. Take a scenic route

Bettin' against me? It's bound to clean you out


[Chorus]

This is for all of my people

Who stood beside me and still believed

Drop-top cars and SUVs, G5 flights and shopping sprees

This is where you wanna be, this is La Familia


[Verse 2]

It's hard to get low in a 3-6-0 Spider

License plates all the chicks know

Cats walk around buffed up like beach guys

But they don't put no fear in these eyes

Besides, I'm just here to teach lives

Girl, walk around, try to give me the slide

The ice on my arm, it gave me all away

I roll up the tint top up and rode away

I smell like money. Let the odor stay

Go in my closet, fur to throw away

I'm never lost I already know the way

If I need it for tonight, I'll get it for today

I'm God-made. I took five years parlay

Home pool, arcade. And it's all paid

What say? I spend a third on a upgrade

Import palm trees 'cause I ain't have enough shade


[Chorus]

This is for all of my people

Who stood beside me and still believed

Drop-top cars and SUVs, G5 flights and shopping sprees

This is where you wanna be, this is La Familia


[Bridge]

And when the record plays, What will the haters say?

Oh don't you be afraid 'cause I'm your alliby

So when I'm drivin by, don't try to analyse

It's because of him I'mma still be fly

And this our lullaby (C'mon now)


[Verse 3]

And you know my flow, I'm in and out

Non guilty, I ain't gotta buy the trout

Couple of critics but I ain't gon' stop now

I got a plane to catch to be in Moscow

I'm on jets. They doin sky miles

So I see why the people so hostile

It's no drama. It's mo' honor

I'm wanted in the world like I was Osama

This is no exaggeration

Why these people so mad at Mason? Uh


[Chorus]

This is for all of my people

Who stood beside me and still believed

Drop-top cars and SUVs, G5 flights and shopping sprees

This is where you wanna be, this is La Familia


[Chorus]

This is for all of my people

Who stood beside me and still believed

Drop-top cars and SUVs, G5 flights and shopping sprees

This is where you wanna be, this is La Familia


[Outro]

Take that, take that

Take that, take that
