All you do is just make up your mind
If you're gonna do something
The key to life is your attitude
Make sure you're doin' what you wanna do
Your goals can unfold right before your eyes
But you gotta have some priorities in order

Bought houses of the wrist (ah)
Half a kick for the fit (uh)
Barricades on the block (numbers)
'Nother nigga got- (church)
'Nother nigga got ten (man)
Squeezin' 'til the Glock-, shh (good job)
Squeezin' 'til the Glock jam
Niggas know I'm top tier (ayy, ayy, ayy, ayy)
Fastin' in the mornin' (man)
Casual with my garments (cas')
South of France smoke (smoke)
But hold on, I get more shit (yeah)
Hold on, I got motion (yeah)
Hold on, I don't know him
Chill out with that bro shit 
This might be the greatest escape, nigga
Ayy, ayy, ayy, ayy, ayy (damn)
Got my feet wet when I was seventeen (shit)
First time cruisin' down the Blade was like a movie scene (movie)
We was rockin' Nike tech suits in 2013 (ayy, ayy, ayy, ayy, ayy)
Twenty-thousand hangin' out my pocket (man)
Hooker clockin' cheese (ayy, ayy, ayy, ayy, ayy)
Used to drive to Costa Mesa twice a month, dodge the steam (twice, yeah)
Bust a couple plays (man)
After that, head to SD (numbers)
Hotel circle hot as f*ck (chill), it's time to switch speeds
Two 5.0's back-to-back (damn)
It was two pieces, hey

Two hits of the numb numb juice
Still couldn't knock me off the caboose (alright, soowoo)
Don't get it fucked up, boo (nah)
No, ho, we don't love you
Like Pepé Le Pew, three riders in ski mask
Lookin' like TR, you know duck, duck, goose
Just dump dump, shoot (doot-doot-doot)
F*ck with the f*ck, round two, homie, this four-deep deuce (Westside)
P Worthy, the reputable
Turn opps into vegetables 
That's just how the section rolls
The homies turn two in fours 
(Fours and twos, eights and nines)
Payin' dues 'round here ain't enough, we wanna know what set you from
Et cetera, et cetera
I do it way better, blood
Don't talk mad at me this ho, I was never the one
Only kept that bitch around for the funds, it was never for fun (pimpin')
All you get is some hand-me-down Uggs
Shoutouts to Yambo, damn, I miss my son (wavey bone)
Church
Like I'm the Heavenly One (Heavenly One)
Countin' hundreds and a two-piece with a top hat
Like I'm Reverend Run

Chasin' the paper like it was runnin' from me
I'm in the spot countin' hundreds until my thumbs is bloody
That's the only way for me to sit up comfortable like Dutch and Bumpy
I clutch a pump, dump it, and jump a country
Might be in London speakin' bluntly
One sniff of the pure got your bitches nerves all twitchy and jumpy 
(Man, cool out, cool out)
Comin' down the block like a slinky thing
Whisky on the rock with the pinky ring
Bucket hat with the wrinkled brim
I'm in the water where it's sink or swim
Doin' math on the abacus
Already made the nickel, I'm thinkin' ten
Wavin' flags like a matador
Already got the juice so I'm drinkin' Gin (Gin straight)
I'm a product of the '70s (yeah)
The Gottis and the Jenevis
We left bodies buried in the desert
Paid off crooked cops and deputies
Without even carryin' a weapon
Cut a tongue out for talkin' recklessly (what you said?)
On the scale I'm too various to measure
All my soldiers, they walk nda step with me (walk)
From the trenches to the park benches

No one can escape
What is getting ready to come upon us

Somebody'll have to say something and have some credibility
And cornin' those who are cornable
Everybody won't make it in-
