Dirty Brass Ring

Slide to my left and I notice the ballers that creep
I started watching my six
In the city when it's after dark got a breeze
Nights when I clock in the shift
Covered in blues, I feel how the water is deep
I'm drifting off the abyss
Money calls I follow suit
Embossing my heart on the sleeve
And I'll never toss it
Life's too short to let it pass you by
And so I'm never passing up the rock
Changes coming fast I can't recognize
The hand that's stirring up the pot
I was born under the sand
I'm still shaking mud out my pants
Like who would've guessed
I go to the land, where everything part of the plan
The ring has the dirtiest brass

Bring my own hype I don't need me a flava flav
Back at the courts block the shit out a fadeaway
Pops was my barber we listened to parliament
No arguments while he fade away
Those were the better days
Taking me back when I meditate
Now the number one mission above all
Is get dollars, get my dawgs all squared away
Three hours out from the stu and I'm writing plays
Don Shula when I hit the stage
Off the top like it's Ilyn Payne
Get chopped with the pen to page
The flow sick leave you ill in pain
I rode in on the dark horse left in a metal tank
And now the label reps sound like Wayne Brady
They can't wait to play me I got nothing to sell
Outwitting all the rappers
Go head to head they expecting the L
Lyrics coming out my death note
Hitman tux my dress code
Gila monster with the claws
And after the loss they boarding the ship
Mercenary when I'm lending the pen
Follow my path for the cookie crumbles of the chip
I'm signing some Kevin Durants
Three generations of music all tossed in the blender
Got hella investors looking for stock in the set up
Blowing my phone and I started blocking the senders
One step ahead of the vogue
Reading material exclusive to moguls, tuning my focus
When I came up there were three by my side
There's still three by my side and they're keeping me right

Slide to my left and I notice the ballers that creep
I started watching my six
In the city when it's after dark got a breeze
Nights when I clock in the shift
Covered in blues, I feel how the water is deep
I'm drifting off the abyss
Money calls I follow suit
Embossing my heart on the sleeve
And I'll never toss it
Life's too short to let it pass you by
And so I'm never passing up the rock
Changes coming fast I can't recognize
The hand that's stirring up the pot
I was born under the sand
I'm still shaking mud out my pants
Like who would've guessed
I go to the land, where everything part of the plan
The ring has the dirtiest brass
