Lyrics

Yeah, last year was not practise year Let's get more number 1's and more plaques this year I say a lotta blurry lines, let's talk facts this year I might even try goin' back to mass this year Yeah, told bro that I ain't jokin' this year Told wifey I might even give up smokin' this year Told Dumi I'ma rap with more emotion this year Keep the doors wide open this year I been coastin' but the last few years have been weird I'm either self-assured or I'm scared, and that's how I deal with the fear People speakin' on my name If you could feel the burnin' in my ears, type of pain that can bring a man to tears But I'm 'ere still Man's gon' clear, clear, clear still Rock in a hard place, label tryna make us do it their way We tellin' them we wanna do it our way Everythin' is homegrown, comin' like Agave Young Rico Suave Everythin' to me is blasé Told the architect to make the whole thing parquet 3 piece on, Prince of Wales check Freddy on the boat sayin' "Where we gonna sail next?" Where I come from, we talk about "Who's goin' jail next?" Not everyone's a shotta, but everybody's runnin' from a coppa And nobody wants to bait the block up 16, set up by a chick, what a cockup, yeah Aftershock days, Saint James on the block days Nu Brand Flexxx days, Morley's on the estate Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, you don't remember that? Night bus, New Years Eve, one December back All these memories, these memories I hold Then next thing I know I end up on the road Toured Usher, Drizzy, even toured with Cole Then I give a girl my soul And next thing you know I'm turnin' 28 years old, woah Gettin' older, things I seen make me turn colder Top down, sittin' in this roadster In these funny times, it's important that we're closer Started meditation and I started doin' yoga Killin' all these rappers I'm the scene's Keyser Söze Ring up for Benz and make him drop it on my chauffeur We about to get this bread poppin' like a toaster If you don't get it now, then you'll get it when you're older, aha Yeah, Youth, aha
