Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Sometimes I get so fucking paranoid reminiscing on how them bricks keep going back and forth
I ask the lord for everything I lack and more
Last thing on my mind was slamming Caddy doors
[Verse 2]
I just made up my mind
I'm grinding like a boss
Dedicated our lives sacrifices we lost
Fatal mistakes talking laws of attraction
The paper I'm making
[Verse 3]
I upgraded my fashion
Everything tailor made
Floss is my passion
Loyalty came first number one rule in the faction
Follow my actions
Came in the '06
Planted my flag
Bitch, I'm taking no shit
[Verse 4]
I toted them toolies
I bullied the bullies
I made a few hits
My band account Jewish
**** is minor
The money manure
I'm thinking like Heinemann
Godfather the fourth
[Verse 5]
It was never filmed
Therefore never seen
It was never him
That's what these haters scream
I wrote the script
I was sipping lean
Now meet the myth
I brought along my triple beam
[Verse 6]
This thing of ours
It's a mafia so
You ain't never know though
Never gonna know so
No never, no never
No never no, no, no, no
[Verse 7]
This reefer the sweetest
Got me thinking much deeper
That don't rap for a reason
This is rather convenient
Spend money with my team
Make my money from hustle
Women love you for fee
**** hate you for nothing
[Verse 8]
Never hate you in public
Better let they eyes tell it
Ain't even five-eleven
What the fuck you got scared of?
I'm a loose cannon
Screws damaged
And I do think hip hop music needs some newer standards
[Verse 9]
Hardest working conglomerate
And that's word to my mama
Getting up in they mental
Get em outta they garments
Adamantly coming at whoever call up for drama
Just know that DC Philly Ohio Miami got us
[Verse 10]
Private jet over water
Now Dedra got no barber
I see feds I got that way
That DMV shit saw us
When you young and you black
They see you as a target
So before them phone pauses get ya lawyers in order
[Verse 11]
This thing of ours
It's a mafia so
You ain't never know though
Never gonna know so
No never, no never, no never
[Verse 12]
The don of all don's since you wanna call me something
All of a sudden **** ball and stuntin'
Ya'll just started pulling on her on, pull ya car
Ya spineless
Where ya heart I know where mine is
A don is one who accept things he cannot change
[Verse 13]
Only thing I accept I cannot change is getting old and dying
Gold medallion
Over my son chest
He'll hold it down when I sunset
What does death mean to me
I never owned the concept
I was here I'm just a spirit
Let's get one thing clear
[Verse 14]
Everything segue's into each other
One thing is just an extension of the other
My kid to me
I am my children through history
Of stand up men and stand up women
I am existing I was conceived to break bread with kings
And make connections
[Verse 15]
We haven't met yet
My reputation you stuck with
Until we have our formal introduction that's enough
But every male is not a man
So some of those that will hold out their hand
Won't understand
This thing of ours
[Verse 16]
This thing of ours
It's a mafia so
You ain't never know though
Never gonna know so
No never, no never, no never
No, no, no, no
