Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You told
You told me to, me to stay
[Verse 2]
When I wanted to stay, you didn't want me around
Now, that I wanna leave, you be hunting me down
What's wrong? Throwing shit up in my face, steady talking me down
Just fucking with the lame brains that was on at the time
[Verse 3]
Now, you wanna take claims 'cause I'm talk of the town
Or your Instagram page, try to flaunt me round
Make me wish I could rewind back farther in time
So I could turn the hands back to a quarter to nine
[Verse 4]
Nine years ago from today, now, my daughter, she five
And my baby boy one, that's my heart and my pride
You said it was fear exchanged, but I call it a bribe
Trying to play the blame game, but all of it's mines
[Verse 5]
And instead of pointing the finger, I pointed the .9's
Then a popper, but she had a doctor's appointment at nine
The tension was so thick, had me warring with moms
Got me considering divorcing my bride
Said she love me and she want me
[Verse 6]
Work hard, never rest
Shout to college but we the best
Angelina Jolie, get this off your chest
Used to shop at Ross, had to dress for less
If I get free clothes, accidentally flex
It's never less than excellence
My old squad, that's pestilence
Rap game, same shit as wrestling
[Verse 7]
Choose a backstory, grab a corny outfit
Then strut around yapping like you really 'bout shit
It's 2013, ain't giving no vouchers
Then say I just started, but bitch, I been out here
[Verse 8]
I live this, I breathe this, I sweat this, I bleed this
I want this, I need this, like Kanye need Jesus
Like khaki's need creases, my world fell to pieces
I stuck to my pieces, the realest, believe it
[Verse 9]
You told
You told me to, me to stay
[Verse 10]
Let's go
A couple cyphers in the cut, get in they opera
As a scout wants to know, I'll be on his rocker tone
Tom Ross he shoot cannons like rocket launchers
Through the headlines, reading that a new dawn upon us
[Verse 11]
I read about perilous schemes, we painted every lie
We're here tonight, we're living between
Mad men get busy between whiskey and heat
Flick of a finger, they call it flick of the team
[Verse 12]
We looking ice, Andre
Three stacks, ice cut
My own button, button ups
So cutting so tight for
[Verse 13]
I bet he's puking off the side of the boat
Look, the bitches puking off the side of his yacht, shit
Alexander on his system, when they glide on your block
She kissing me like a sailor when I arrive at the dock
[Verse 14]
From the top you can watch with any sniper you got
Rear window, Hitchcock, and are you buying a watch?
