[Intro]

(Oh my God Rocco)

Hey Nate, this is Tata just checking in with you buddy

Haven't talked to you for a long time

Just tryna see how you doing

Anyway uh I thought I'd catch you but I got your answering machine

Anyway uh I'll tak to you whenever you get a chance

[Chours]

I might skirt off in that red eye

Nowadays it's been so hard to keep my head high

In competition with myself so fuck the next guy

Used to have friends but now I don't cause I can't stand lies

Tucked my feelings deep away and put my heart on standby

Same bitch I've been with but we still fuck like we ain't never met

Designers cool but you'll still catch me wearing Nike Techs

Causе in this world everyone fakе I'm not tryna impress

At least I know when I go I'ma die with respect

[Verse 1]

Yeah I remember wearing hand me downs

It's the same ones who doubted me back home

They turned to fans now

And I was taught to go and get it, I can't stand around

Fuck I look like waiting for another man to hand it out (Fuck I look like?)

Brand new Airforce 1's and Nike Sweatsuits with my hoodie on

New budget for that video gotta wait until them goodies gone

Family over everything me and moms we got a different bond

And I look at my friends just like they family so don't do me wrong

I turned my dreams into a reality

Seven months on them couch cushions in that studio

I caught a lotta z's

And I'd do it a hundred times

I'm not the only one but best believe I'm getting mines

[Chours]

I might skirt off in that red eye

Nowadays it's been so hard to keep my head high

In competition with myself so fuck the next guy

Used to have friends but now I don't cause I can't stand lies

Tucked my feelings deep away and put my heart on standby

Same bitch I've been with but we still fuck like we ain't never met

Designers cool but you'll still catch me wearing Nike Techs

Cause in this world everyone fake I'm not tryna impress

At least I know when I go I'ma die with respect

[Verse 2]

Making waves on the east you probably heard about me

Barely graduated fuck college, I'm tryna earn a profit

Jumped up in that water with my talent, and a little knowledge

If I didn't know it, I said fuck it I'ma learn about it

I ain't have a shoulder I could lean on

They used to tell me I can't do it, I'm hardheaded, I can't believe em'

And I rather work for it, no shortcuts, I don't need none

If I ever have some issues, I'ma light em' in this weed blunt, uh

Praise the Lord cause he done made a way

I'm with big bro and he makes more plays than the Phillies game

I've looked fear inside the eyes so many times that I'm not afraid

But I don't care how many times I try, I'm gonna be okay

[Chours]

I might skirt off in that red eye

Nowadays it's been so hard to keep my head high

In competition with myself so fuck the next guy

Used to have friends but now I don't cause I can't stand lies

Tucked my feelings deep away and put my heart on standby

Same bitch I've been with but we still fuck like we ain't never met

Designers cool but you'll still catch me wearing Nike Techs

Cause in this world everyone fake I'm not tryna impress

At least I know when I go I'ma die with respect
