Pete Rose
I'm in the back rolling backwoods
Lowkey at the venue
Just me and my mans
Talking bout how we gone run the city
Still not taking the journey for granted
I don't be sharing my dreams
Cause they gone shoot down
What they can't understand
I ain't got time if you ain't helping
Filling my cup cause you making it spill
I search the web for the finest of fabrics
Wholesale to give hope to the fans
I should say supporters cause y'all ain't fanatics
Show love and I treat you like fam
I seen the toughest of niggas cry
When they sentenced to that heavy time
I seen some phonies who frown at your w's
But they smile at your demise
Watch for the snakes in the grass
Beware of these junts tryna get up under you
Just cause you got a lil buzz
Don't rest on your laurels
Cause life gone humble you
Folks love taking handouts
The moment there's pressure
I promise they'll fumble you
Dropped like a bad habit
Breath at a loss asthmatic
Out of touch don't know who to trust
More paranoid than ever
Remember chess not checkers
Focus on self, not image
I just wanna show the lil homies
It's more gangsta if you go cop you some land
Put someone in position to stand on they own two
And take care of their fam
I'm in the back rolling backwoods
Lowkey at the venue
Just me and my mans
Talking bout how we gone run the city
Still not taking the journey for granted
I don't be sharing my dreams
Cause they gone shoot down
What they can't understand
I ain't got time if you ain't helping
Filling my cup cause you making it spill
I'm in the back rolling backwoods
Lowkey at the venue
Just me and my mans
Talking bout how we gone run the city
Still not taking the journey for granted
I don't be sharing my dreams
Cause they gone shoot down
What they can't understand
I ain't got time if you ain't helping
Filling my cup cause you making it spill
I done seen cousins who kill they own cousins
For problems worth less than a grand
I been smooth as butter since I was a youngin
That's cause it's not on me it's in me
I move with precision
Whether it's corporate America or in the trenches
Got plans not wishes
Believe in redemption
My purpose is written
I stay bout my franklins
Come snow or fall, Damson Idris
I never seek validation from a soul, that's not in me
Life is a gamble, I'm feeling like Pete
Rose from the concrete
So jiggy from head to my tippy toes
Can give you the game but the work is on you
I'm outside with my toes loose
My girl laying out by the pool
Local garments no designer
I was there when Ye premiered Donda
In the A smoking ganja
Locs hanging like Rasta
I don't engage in the gossip
Got a show on the table
First thing that my manager say back to me
What's the offer
We ain't just gone do whatever for whoever
No more if it ain't yielding profit
There's a past to every prophet
Every saint was a sinner
I know to 12 I'm a target
So I don't draw much attention
So I'm in the back rolling backwoods
Lowkey at the venue
Just me and my mans
Talking bout how we gone run the city
Still not taking the journey for granted
I don't be sharing my dreams
Cause they gone shoot down
What they can't understand
I ain't got time if you ain't helping
Filling my cup cause you making it spill
I'm in the back rolling backwoods
Lowkey at the venue
Just me and my mans
Talking bout how we gone run the city
Still not taking the journey for granted
I don't be sharing my dreams
Cause they gone shoot down
What they can't understand
I ain't got time if you ain't helping
Filling my cup cause you making it spill
Lowkey at the venue
Just me and my mans
Talking bout how we gone run the city
Still not taking the journey for granted
I don't be sharing my dreams
