Cold Shoulder - Intellectual

[Intro]

Yeah

[Verse 1]

Back to the basics (Back to the basics)

I can't escape it, no (Nah)

They like they understand me better when I speak it raw (Talk)

I'm thinkin' 'bout how deep it get from diggin' in my thoughts (Woah)

But then again, I already know what come with bein' a boss (Big bag)

I'm whisperin' in her ear (What?)

Sayin', "I love you, I'ma do better," kissin' her lips

Buy her a bag, then we fuck, she like, "Boy, you a trip" (Haha)

"Why you think you can fix everything with your dick and gifts?"

(It's always worked before)

Barely say no to my kids, been like that since I birthed 'em (Yeah)

DeMoney a spittin' image of me, his mama say I cursed him

Changes and blessings come with time 'cause that's what life bring (So what?)

Didn't understand that shit clear enough 'til I made Spring (My daughter)

I got bitches lyin' on my name, tryin' they best to get some clout

Niggas think it's Swisher Sweet until I break them choppers out (Brrt)

Family never asked for my number, but now they reachin' out (Ha)

Post a picture with some money, they screenshot it, tryin' to count

I ain't fuckin' with no rap niggas, I'm stickin' to the plan (What's that?)

Came in with my day ones, that's how I'ma leave (Who that?)

Tavo, Danjoe, G (Three), been through it all with me (All)

Sat on the bench beside me, it's a must they ball with me

Shit don't even be what it look like, it just be seemin' perfect (I swear)

Sometimes I ask, "Where the love at?" but that don't mean I'm searchin' (Searchin')

I hate that I gave it attention knowin' it didn't deserve it (I'm booked)

Did a diagnostics check and all my buttons workin' (It's up)

Why you tellin' her the business when you go and lay up with her? (Huh?)

I ain't talkin' to no pillow, especially not about my nigga

Take a certain type of nigga to relate to what I'm feelin'

I'm just ventin' to myself, smokin', starin' at the ceilin' (Vibin')

[Chorus]

I'm gangsta from the heart (Heart), started from the gutter

Robbin' niggas, stealin' cars, I'm so glad I played it smart (Smart)

I'm gangsta from the heart (Heart), beat the odds a million times

The struggle made a star, make 'em feel it bar for bar (Go)

Told 'em (I called and tried to tell 'em)

Didn't believe me, so I showed 'em

I'm smashin' on the gas, got no plans of pullin' over

Wrap my hands around my arm, got the world in my palms

Forced me to go numb, I give 'em cold shoulder

[Verse 2]

You dead to me, I had to go stiff

Overtime, puttin' in long hours (What?), I don't come off the shift (Come off the shift)

They hate so hard in my neighborhood, wanna do me like Nip

Pray I ain't lookin' at a friend if I gotta empty the clip (Boom, boom)

Talk to Gotti on the phone, he like, "Look, bro, leave it alone" (Please)

But I can't stay away, the trenches where I feel at home (Home)

I do it first, they gravitate, these rap niggas my protégé

I never hate (Never), 7.62s penetrate (Brr)

Drums sound like an 808 (Brr), boom (Boom)

She went against the rules, fucked the opposition dude (Ooh)

I know we ain't together, but I still don't feel it's cool

Guess you ran outta weapons 'cause now you tryna use my son

Everything don't need a response, I'm just done
