Lyrics

Look at me, pathetic n**** This chain that I bought, greed, pain and fame this a heinous result Let these words be the colors I'm just paintin' my heart I'm knee deep in the game and it ain't what I thought Copped the Range Rover my girl got the Mercedes Iced out crazy I wanna shine like Baby Compared to that n**** I ain't even got a bib yet Truth be told I ain't even bought a crib yet This is everything they told a n**** not to do Image is everything I see, it got a lot to do With the way that people perceive, and what they believe Money short so this jewelry is like a weave Meant to deceive and hear n****s say I see you Now b****es wanna f*** you and n****s wanna be you And police wanna stop you, frisk you, wonder what he do If a hater snatch a chain I bet it still won't free you Cause I'll be right back grinding till I cop another I sit and think 'bout all the s*** I could'nt cop my mother My partner say that's just a game my n**** That's what I heard my jeweler say chain my n**** This is chaining day Chaining day, my chaining day This is my chain today My last piece, I swear My guilt heavy as this piece I wear They even iced out Jesus' hair My last piece, I swear They even iced out Jesus' hair Iced on this white Jesus, seem a little unholy Real strange thing about this iced out Rollie It's the same s*** a broke black n**** get ga**ed at The same s*** a rich white mo'f***a laugh at Well laugh on white man, I ain't paid as you But I bet your rims ain't the same age as you And I ain't got no investment portfolio But my black and white diamonds shinin' like a Oreo I know back home where n****s sit today You rock a chain and they always got some s*** to say Even back when I was broke I knew his s*** was fake He'd probably sneeze too hard and his s*** could break But hey, you know the sayin', "Fake it 'til you make it" Me, I did the opposite, made it then I faked it And acted like I gave a f***, money I was savin' up Then copped a crib that's gated till that hundred racks, I gave it up
