[Verse 1]
J
Put in all this work
We ain't get here by mistake
Causing down the highway $20,000 worth of plates
I'm loyal to the cause is some shit we can't debate
Let's get it straight still cool with niggas that I met when I was eight
A couple snakes that learned to slither 'til I cut the grass
Moving forward never been a victim of my past
Light the za and never pass
Artificial never last
Legends never die for real
Lost my bother years ago
In the whip be crying still
No struggle rap I dеal with pain and learn to hustle that
Trees I seen a ton of that
Baby we thе lumber jacks
Prepared to do a hundred laps
TMC what's more than Nip
Time is money, don't converse with those that can't afford the shit
I gotta play it by the rules
I found desire by myself
I'm happy God just gave me tools
Winning anything is hard
Seen a million niggas lose
Tryna eat, fork in the road
This the past we gotta choose
I chose legendary
All my homies touch more paper than the secretary
Love was always secondary
Different laws I'm living by
Saying less than necessary
Take a while to reach the top
Nigga I was never worried
Yeah I gave my niggas some hope
And some of them hung theyselves but I ain't give em the rope
Watching Martin with my Gina, but I ain't give them them jokes
You never know what you made of til survival provoke
Them positive quotes
Ain't help auntie cut out the dope
Bundles in my pocket, by your lunch, but tell her I'm broke
Been living this show
My children where the Benjamins go
And I be splurging for times I couldn't get them they coats
These niggas ain't woke
Just eyes wide shut, looking for friends
The plug's like my brothers, you niggas ain't smokin ends
Like deps like ya future, this were my story begins
Just understand that the prequel don't show where the story ends
Hunger pains in my stomach from choices I made
Money trees got planted of course it's some shade
These niggas never paid what it costs to be brave
Too many friends of mine been stuck the prison or grave
Lighting some sage I think I'm scared of minimum wage
Fuck your age, I know some grown folks literally slaves
Kept it moving, ain't stuck in my ways
I learned to maneuver this maze
Old soul, started off puffing the haze
