FLOOD GATES (feat. Just Terry & SKOE)
We're at the top of the bubble
They ride the wave down
Sliding through the city
Know we play it like a game now
Ever since we came around
World been looking different to me
See it from the pinnacle
They could never take it from me
They say they wanna hang with us
But no they not that dangerous
We banging for the same purpose
That's gonna keep us safe as fuck
And now they scream my name what's up
No way they can pass me up
Smoking on that gas and stuff
You know that we go wrap it up
Now add it up
Tips to myself I once said
Please don't get too far ahead
Don't die until you dead
I hope that left some people scared
Or it went over their heads like a hoodie
Sometimes I'm in my feelings like I'm Boogie
Expecting all the baddies to be goodies
But they screaming why should we
I promise not to toy with you
And you got a friend in me like I'm Woody
I'm going wild until they book me
Just don't overlook me no more
They trying to push me
They ain't wanna open the door
They playing pussy
I just know I needed it all
I just came here to ball
I just need the applause for me
I know that I'm never gone fall off
Said you can find me in the background
Ain't no watching from the watching from the sidelines
Bring the waiter to the table
Told them fine wine in my glass
Ain't got no class we came from nothing
Fucked around and switched it up
We had to press the button
Now they all look pressed
You know we pressed their luck a time or two
Heard that silly shit they saying now
Like who the fuck you talking to
Who you talking to
We got them cancelling their plays
They calling audible
I just write my name in history like the authors do
Don't let them sell away your dreams
That's what auctions do
So what's next you gone let them come in your crib with a weapon
I gotta watch how I'm stepping
I'm getting prayed by reverend
I think I'm good
As we proceed to watch the world burn
Steady pendulum spinning
That's how the world turns
We had to stop the clock and confess
I know it might be hard to digest
But you can't fight destiny boy
That bitch got hands
And I can see the way they moving
Can't put faith in man
It never crossed my mind to fold in
Now let them flood gates open
Why am I so misunderstood
Come on and stuff some more woods
And now we coasting through this motherfucker
Smoking like a motherfucker
Flossing with my blood brothers
Might just have to dog walk her
Made her treat me like her blood father
Get a hoe and make that slut holler
I could never give that hoe a lone dollar
I ball I entertain like a globetrotter
That's a layup they don't talk when I'm talking
Driver acting mad whenever I'm walking
I just might have loosened up some screws
They keep talking to me
Yeah they've got me so confused
Am I a demon if I understand them too
At least most of them cool
I was a dead man walking
Had no reflection in the mirror
Only scratching at the surface
Had to jump to see it clearer
Is it fear of falling
Pain that keeps you grounded like a prison
Told him play your position
Told him give it to me
An ancient paradigm shifting
I only pray that I'm forgiven for the pain that I cause
Lord Knows
Lord knows I've been leaning towards my blessings
I been gripping on my weapon
Trying to find a new direction
I'm investing in my hood now
All because I could now
I been getting worn out
I wish they made more of me
Now I got it mapped out
This is what I'm born to be
What more do you want from me
Want from me
Want from me
As we proceed to watch the world burn
Steady pendulum spinning
That's how the world turns
We had to stop the clock and confess
I know it might be hard to digest
But you can't fight destiny boy
That bitch got hands
And I can see the way they moving
Can't put faith in man
It never crossed my mind to fold in
Now let them flood gates open
