Yeah
I feel like
Whoever you nominate
I could dominate the topic of conversation
I'm about to turn speculation to confirmation
All I need is a little love and a lot of patience
Baby, don't be complicated
I thought I could drop and
Right away this shit would top the nation
That's just how I operated
Always knew it's possible but
Frozen margaritas with Tatyana's what taught me patience
Nothing's been the same since I knew the decisions I made
All became the ones I know I'm not erasing
And she's still lost in Los Angeles if I'm not mistaken
And still avoids names in case of a confrontation
If this is surprising, thеn take the consolation
Ultimatums that started out as a convеrsation
I've been spilling out secrets before they turn loose
Everybody that's loved you has hurt you
And that's real in reverse, too
Look, these vices need verses
So my karma's in the first two songs
'Cause half of you won't get past that, uh
We'll see who really gets the last laugh
Keep on double tapping and living off of a Cash App
I can't believe you tried to ask that
'Cause I need more than five, tens, and Jacksons
Lights, camera, action
Waterford glasses and golden age classics
I'm breaking down instead of breaking my habit of
Holding on to attraction that wouldn't ever have lasted
I still don't understand, I'm still overreacting
We lost the magic and happily ever after
I'm blasting that G-Dep and rapping to it religiously
Ever since I heard that record, I been focused on delivery
I found my humility up in Kittery
And learned a valuable lesson on liability
'Cause shorty only care for her debit and credibility
Like if it's gunna work
I need you here with me physically, girl
Riddle me, riddle me
Since she got rid of me, I been dolo
Clocking out in a polo
Quick to forget the years
That my career was stuck in slow-mo
The framework isn't new though
My soul has been fed since T-Mo and Khujo
And Big Gipp and Cee-Lo
Look there's more to the music than machismo
Learning about the legends is the only way that we grow
Been in the cut with a cup of soda and Tito's
But I just gotta
Talk to Maddie and tap back into my gentle side
Dropping these records is walking such a tender line
Every time
She told me show 'em that I mean it if I said it's mine
The northeaster
They egging me on, I let 'em find
Every single hint at the fact that I've been a gem
And I'm way more than a just a Gemini
Man, we were some stoop goons just getting fry
Always looking past the simple life of getting by
And I swear the
Times they said that I shouldn't just kept me looking up
The times they said that I couldn't just kept me cooking up
Seven Day Theory is playing 'cause I'm not good with luck
I understood that I took for granted
The chances I took for love
Those never stood for much
And did we start this shit off on the wrong foot, or what?
I'm self critical and nothing's ever good enough
And even if it was, it doesn't matter
I'm not hood enough
Scary words all from taking this too literal
But you know the vibe I've been getting is unconditional
And some of my biggest idols are criminals
That's how I learned to keep the talking to a minimal
We need to have a celebration for the celebration
The pen is killing, the hits I'm dropping premeditated
I wrote these verses at seventeen as I hesitated
All those vices were damaging to my reputation
'Cause with the losses, I'm too well acquainted
I've been clenching my teeth as I'm making reparations
All bets are off as the path that I'm on accelerates
I've always been a gentleman
But never follow regulations
Let me take a minute
In Sobo, I had a Polo sweater
Take the pressure I hold with toasting Corona Extra
I'm convinced I've met all of the hottest girls
In the coldest weather
Caught between no one's better and knowing better
I know the value in finding out what that means
But I'm tired of talking in front of screens
Tryna explain I need a regime
And then she gunna say something
Along the lines of how it isn't what it seems
I'm just reading in between
How you gunna say that about my dreams?
Girl, I've always saw chasing them as routine
And always thought that
This would be putting me on the scene
But instead, it's for the team
Instead, I'm finding peace
That R&R needed 'cause everything that I wrote stayed
True to the way that I'm feeling most days
I was shook when homie tried to tell me I'm in no place
To say I need some honest respect 'cause it goes both ways
Wait
How you pass on the flowers and pass judgment instead?
How you waiting for approval and still think you ahead?
How you stay up with this issue and not put that to bed?
I'm surrounded by the people I could take to the end
And that's real
