MATTE BLACK Lyrics by Elgie

2022

[Hook: elgie]
Gone for a minute but I'm back and I'm in it
First came with a clique but now I'm independent
First place with the shit yea you know I got the pendant
Gidda dah da-da yea you know I ain't finished
[Verse 1: elgie]
My mind got a lot up in it, gotta contemplate it
Shoot with precision when I make a decision cuz you
Know it's a clinic how I'm making it look
Boy so authentic I don't fuck around when a
Bitch synthetic no I won't even look
You just wanna flaunt a bit and walk around, drip
Fuck your aesthetic
Giving me a headache
Tryna be da bestess
Bitch it ain't you I got the best genetics
Got my head back in the matte black
Lean back and I hustle daily
[Chorus 1: elgie]
Never sleep on my dreams, I'm living in it
Pool full of green, swimming in it
Hustle by day get money at night
Cuz I got it on lock and I got it on sight
Got it on sight
Got it lock yea, got it on sight (Uh)
"What you think I'm fuckin round?"
Nah, I'll pull the trigger
[Verse 2: elgie]
It's on sight I ain't bein polite
I could keep it up all day n night
Got the red dot right between your eyes
When I look thru da scope I see paradise
Palm trees and beaches, oceanside
You don't see hope cuz you're terrified (My God)
My word, there I go with lords name in vain
...
Never lie I sinned a thousand times
But never am I ever gonna try to cleanse them
Cuz I know God will not forget them
And I will not beg for forgiveness
The day that I say I will pray just to make
All the pain go away is the day that I make it okay
In my fucked up brain to sin
So I smoke a bowl every once and then
Or maybe every day like once or ten
But I ain't getting drunk off Jameson
In my basement on my lonesome
Got some weed imma smoke some
Got the seed imma grow some
Cash, I'll throw some
[Chorus 2: elgie]
Cuz I make a living out my dreams
Not a fantasy
But I been busy stacking up my team
It's the strategy
I'm at peace with my piece of the pie
Still be eating but I'm not greedy
I can sleep in the night I'm just fine
Cuz I know one day you'll see me
[Verse 3: elgie]
Hold up
Gotta be honest
Ion need designer
I don't need Ruth's Chris
Bitch, I'm good with panda
401k, letting it stack up
24k but you don't got a job
Girl I know how this shit adds up
Housewife in a pad...
Came out the womb in a vessel that
God gifted you claim
Funny the way that you use it…
Ain't gonna make no change
Nah
It don't make sense to me
Something is missing see it's contradictory
That you say OF is just for the cashflow
When uhh zaddy got the bag HO
[Hook: elgie] x2
Gone for a minute but I'm back and I'm in it
First came with a clique but now I'm independent
First place with the shit yea you know I got the pendant
Gidda dah da-da yea you know I ain't finished
