Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Reminiscing on that, um
I remember they used to give us that free cheese
A big block of that shit
Yo, man I'm glad y'all ain't gotta get that cheese
Man, I thank God my kids ain't gotta see that cheese
[Verse 2]
Yo, you know what I'm saying?
You gotta feed it to them raw
Feel me?
[Verse 3]
Renovatin' the ghettoes, movin' me elsewhere
Daddy didn't see pension, they took his healthcare
Affordable housing, and they fed us welfare
Showed us Tony Montana, teachers couldn't care less
A young prince in Miami, son of a pharaoh
This is deeper than raps, I can't run from the echoes
[Verse 4]
But I still hear the screams
Under my mattress box-springs
I still see the cream
MAC-11 next to Grammy invitations
I'm never quiet, tell my **** all my aspirations
No more beefin' with rappers, it's just murder or nothin'
New positions to master, I perfected the others
**** shoot for the Magic, never heard of Mutombo
These are lucrative assets, golden words that I mumble
[Verse 5]
It's the biggest
Corner store was the stage, I needed management
And a mansion that I could squeeze another Phantom in
Negative people just seem to fail first
I said I'm a genius, put in the legwork
You step to my ****, suggest you stay alert
Know I've never been lenient nor a man of mercy
I stick my dick in her, tell her my net worth
Then we stare at each other and see who catch first
A pretty chick, she resemble Stacy Dash
If it was her, she had to kiss my feet and lick my ass
Pussy **** want war, till it's bonjour
This hitter settin' a bomb outside your mom's door
Got your people alarmed 'cause we the armed force
Easy as leakin' a song before I go on tour
[Verse 6]
Gang violence ongoing, let's fight our own wars
Chicago been outta hand, the city lost it's soul
Funeral every weekend, or either you cremated
Homie's son, he been murdered, he didn't seem faded
Holding guns on the 'Gram, outta my league, baby
Real killers and hitters would rather live nameless
I got a homie I know with a twenty bodycount
Maybe only once or twice a month he leave the house
Older brother type to get a curly perm
Pappy Mason type, respect for holding thirty birds
Never was a gangster, I just wanted in
No longer could I deny that I wanted a Benz
Booby gave me blessings and the roots for me to win
I showed 'em my ambition in two different fields
Also said I was a rapper, Booby, here it is
Real talk, my ****, here it is
