401 Lyrics by Derin Falana

Don’t Save Me

2019

[Verse]
401 at 4:01
Tryna beat the traffic just before the sun
Playing the project and it's almost done
Bout to pull the trigger we just waitin' for the smoking gun
Team huddles at rehearsal when it's time to plan
Po assesses the supply when it's high demand
Cooking in a closed kitchen under my command
Cause I know the most noise comes from empty pots and pans
Oh you got that right
I mean with all that bark?
You don't got that bite
Look back on April the 13th did a lot that night
And I know cause Live From Rocky Mountain dropped that night
Now the pressure's on
Like a shirt in which the iron's pressed upon
Knowing that I could get all of my projections wrong
Knowing that if I take hits then my vest is on
These are things that I had to share my perspective on
Square One look at my face all in a glass
Ossington look at my face all in a glass
On a wave they just couldn't wade nigga word to Dwayne I notice we both pick up our paces in a flash get it?
Muse for the Peace Collective fall line
Waking up to shoot scenes at 5am call times
Pushing vintage whips with models that play they role
I E-40 the director like just tell me when to go oh
Then I catch a plane OT
Out in Park Slope for the next few weeks
Meeting CEOs of labels that wanna sign in rooms with so much staff I swear I forget who speaks this shit crazy
I done come way too lose to get lazy
Don't be fooled by the young age it took ages
Half done basements
Rooms that were never as spacious
Went through ups and downs just to achieve homeostasis now they finally get where I can take this
On the phone with my lawyer going over the basics
Intricate legal terms and conditional statements
If I ain't gettin' paid is there a way to escape this?
Percentage too high, the bag too low change this fuck that
Gotta learn to filter opinions from people that wanna help
A judge hears the jury but the decision is on himself
I'm the one that gotta play with the hand of cards I've been dealt
And I plan to come out strong like Future and Abel
Done it well
And it almost never fails
Been the shit and they could tell
Probably cause it's getting hard to hide the smell
Niggas got on Dr. Scholls and we still don't really gel
So I keep it in the family away in isolation like a cell
The wave is not for sale nigga
In the restaurant we just ordered seafood and it's funny cause they mentioned this the year they see me breaking out the shell nigga
Yeah, all these two faced heads and tail niggas

[Outro]
I swear I tried to tell niggas
