Basics (feat. Jaden Heights)

I came from the button
Who would've thought I would make it out?
I was on the block in the trenches I had no way out
But my mama prayers got me swerving now
I just thank God that I'm out of the basics now
Now, yeah, yeah

I'm incredible, edible, my rhyme schemes impeccable
Been chasing money like the federal
Crime scenes my rap expendable
Independent rap nigga I'm respectable
Me and rap music inseparable
These niggas wouldn't crack the code
Say dirt on my name imma slap you bro
I've been making records word to Guinness
This is real rap no beginners
Only talking nigga if its business
This street life is within us
I done made it out man I'm winning
I pray to God for the dinner
This is a marathon no sprinter
Selling packs nigga for a living
Now I'm high I'm moving like propellers
My heart is made outta denim
I been a lost cause but I came back for the winning (yeah)
Lord forgive me I'm a sinner
Cause lord God I'm a killer
If it's not trap then I'm drilling
If it's not rap then I'm dripping
Yeah back to back man I'm running from the basics
All my niggas they be talking about the late leak
Toosie slide on your block like Drake shit
They show love but niggas on gay shit
If I get rich, I'm riding a motorboat
Young nigga so cold like the north pole
Shinning on my wrist that's stone cold
Man, I talk business on trap phones
Brrr brrr who's this? Six
Man, I want you on a verse my nigga
16 bars verse yeah? Yes, my nigga
You cool with that? I'm like "yes, my nigga"
Is this Jaden heights? I'm like "yes, my nigga"
Send me the beat like asap nigga
I'm gonna murder this beat like asap nigga yeah
Alright bet!

I came from the button
Who would've thought I would make it out?
I was on the block in the trenches I had no way out
But my mama prayers got me swerving now
I just thank God that I'm out of the basics now

Since I was young, I've always tried to make earth a beautiful place
Just like we playing cards
You can't be king if you know I've got that ace
Life is beautiful just look around at the things and get amazed
For the things that can't really change, unless it really rains
The numbers be doing calling
Money be doing the talking
Then Kobe be doing the balling
'cause we've been wilding' since we youngin'
Jesus my only meditation
Is to save my soul and my nation
'cause we still have people who were to be leaders
But still on probation
Ain't talking about masturbation
Just talking about my nation
Being paid to never say this
Just imagine life before creation
Where everything was perfect
When sin was never in motion
How can we convince our people
To stay strong and wait for the declaration?
Being jumped out on I ain't say shit
Being run upon I ain't say shit
Being doing numbers the numbers keep coming back like they on vacation
When we go back to the basics
Where we had nothing but cases
How can we mount like masons?
But magma build like mason (magma built like what?)
Like Mary and Jack
Mary fast as hell like how she do that?
Beast mode but I got the game on my back
But in real life I ain't into that
Long talk with spice of some facts
I hate that don't look me like that
I hate that expression like ye on a track
Smiles so good but pain in his eyes
I'm doing pages on pages
She be doing this like she doing for ages
Slavery shit, but I ain't in cages
Flying high like Travis and the rages
I been doing this like I been in images
I ain't got time for these haters
Only neggas that be popping the real
Know how we be coming to kill
Yeah yeah yeah
