Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Corner store, 2 AM
Got some Mango Hi-Chews, a bag of chips
Rolling through the city and we hide behind the tints
In the Benzo, got the swisher out the window then we dip
[Verse 2]

[Verse 3]
Okay, 2 AM, I'm posted
Dope all in my Jansport
Moving, the youth I run with
Might treat your block like a dance floor
Finesse the rent out the landlord
Mama said, "Pull your pants up"
Bending corners and scraper
I'm loyal to you till my bands up
I'm pushing, moving, work improving
There's commas on the way
Put the pussy on pedestal
Blow the medical to the face
It's evident on my face
Running Heaven in my new Wraith
Declining the call from labels
Still grubbing on struggle plates
They all wanna know what's next
Shit, I don't even know myself
Nah, I don't wanna hear you best shit
I don't really need your help
I'm posted and smoking
Just like my uncle's before me
I politic with the stagnant
Forget my day by the morning, it go
[Verse 4]
Corner store, 2 AM
Got some Mango Hi-Chews, a bag of chips
Rolling through the city and we hide behind the tints
In the Benzo, got the swisher out the window then we dip

[Verse 6]
I grew up on old English
That's that malt liquor
Never smoked a Backwood, it was all Swishers
Before I pulled the fake ID out on a bartender
I was on a bag of cubensis , walking off kilter (Shrooms, shrooms, shrooms)
We ain't had no common sense
Do that dirt and hop that fence
Roasting, talking shit, we mobbing
I just got my mama's whip
We blow dank out that window
Right with your tape up, it's garbage
I used to roll up a spliff
But now mix the weed with the Parliament, aye (Shit)
[Verse 7]
Couldn't tell you 'bout our future?
We was on the corner, posted
Wasn't thinking about tomorrow
On the rooftop smoking
Swisher guts in the Funyun bag
I was just doing my thing
Hit the hot food aisle
Got gizzards instead of the wings (Gizzard)
But it's all love
Run my route, play the course
Sweat pant shorts, wife beater
Posted on the porch
Reminiscin' 2:11 then we smoking on some 'Ports
And getting hella faded, gotta re-up
So you know we 'bout to hit the
[Verse 8]
Corner store, 2 AM
Got some Mango Hi-Chews, a bag of chips

[Verse 10]
Taking my time, working it out
Counting the coin, breaking my back
All of my loins, all of my nerves
Can't get a break but that's my snack
Call me Almond Joy, mama's boy
Can't afford none of what you order, shit
I'm hardly on, not quite broke
Off the wall but on the border
Pushing pens to the paper for peso
They wanna Lego
Closed construction, no room for the huevos
You gotta love it
That's Benny, he like Montego
He save you like the gecko
He not gon' pay the day
Till you get ice, get OG Maco
Boy so wonderful
Them cheap thrills, they come and they go, yeah
Talkin' 'bout we saved you a seat, bruh, boy
They don't want no one to know
Long as you comfortable, yeah

Corner store, 2 AM
Got some Mango Hi-Chews, a bag of chips
Rolling 'round the city and we hide behind the tints
Of the Benzo, got the swisher out the window then we dip
[Verse 14]
Corner store
That's all (Gemini)
[Verse 15]
God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change
The courage to change things I can
And the wisdom to know the difference
