Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Never would've made it
Now I'm glad I made it out
Made it out
[Verse 2]
It's God speed
It's God, yeah
It's God speed, yeah
It's God, ah
[Verse 3]
Uh, this is just how I zone with Porter spaz
I was born at a quarter past
I was the color purple
Mom and pop too me home in a Crown Royale bag
Now I'm the hottest **** that you know with the coldest intentions
Uh, all I know is this flow and this pencil
The Lord is my shepherd, the Devil's my Doberman Pinscher
The industry said, I had to be a alcoholic
We'll be havin' threesomes, be doin' acid and havin' seizures
Wish I could go back to my old school and slap the teachers
All I had to do to blow up was a album packed with features
[Verse 4]
I don't relate to common folk
The focus on the common
So I'ma go roll a Testarossa down the coast of Monaco
Low and behold, you're honorable
**** is sheep, **** asleep, 'bout as woke as a dinosaur
My connect'll give you a whole kilo of coke so he can go Geronimo
He should receive a trophy for bein' the holy Jesus of flows
He the G.O.A.T
Bah, that should be my tag
I'm from the streets where the odds are not even
Robbery, thievin', ballers, debauchery, schemin'
Allah or Jesus, it's hard to believe I'm a product of even
The Garden of Eden speakin' how targeted we've been
[Verse 5]
Rhianna stalker, I'm parked in the DM's
Shark in the deep end, put the pause on you, I'll soften your defense
Hit your pause button, halt your critiquin'
Talk is cheap, the more you **** talk it, it cheapens
And all I see is prayer 'round the streets today
I'm 'bout a freak away from havin' Issa Rae eatin out Lisa Ray
Any artist out that you see is great
Tell him I said bring his ass, better bring his A
Let his single play
We don't care what you sing
Hit you in the face with the butt of the gun
You leak and get your street credit a few streams
[Verse 6]
Pop go the weasel, ****, fever Nina, I'm the illest
You got pop-culture fever, ****
All I know is Big and Pac quotes, pop toasts and squeasin' triggers
Speedin' tickets
Now I pull the cops over, get 'em **** season tickets
Teacher used to shoot me down vicious, now she the Mrs.
She turned me to a family guy quicker than Peter Griffin
I told myself when I was fourteen that she the one
Now a **** probably got more C's than Peter Gunz
Now I go out to get my groceries in two seaters
Used to roll the old school, four speakers and two tweeters
Ridin' with nothin' but raw quarter packs and duffles
Ryan writes heaters
[Verse 7]
Y'all **** is cut like one of them "Get Rich or Die Tryin'" wife beaters
Me, I'm just all shoulder straps and muscle
If you're a hater, let's do it
I whip you now and then whip on your boy later
Them whippin's'll go around like a tornado
I get rid of more yayo
I don't do rodeo or Ls, I do the Floyd May-o's
So many men shoppin' in women's section, it ain't no ladies left
These **** crazy, yes
They playin' crazy like the Chapelle sketch
Wayne Brady it
I'm what you get for freeway riggin' cocaine 80's met
Bringin' bars back to the street like Jay and Nas beef
Broadcastin' "Ether" in HD at God speed
