Damn, broke as a bad joke, but still I laugh though

Frontin' tryna have hope, it's sad though

I'm tired of being broke as ****

I'm seeing other *****s ball and I'm like 0 for 6

Aye man, I just graduated, good old college degree

****, my *****s drug dealing see more dollars than me

I know my calling, it's in my blood to do this music thing

Won't be that illest ***** that you never knew his name

I'm looking at these fake A&R's like, "You a lame

That boy a genius and you ain't even listen, man you insane"

But you'll see though, just what the hell a ***** 'bout to be though

So give me one year then play this back like TiVo

'Cause boy I'm finna blow, I'm a ************' torpedo

The music's in my blood so watch these *****s turn mosquito, uh

I play the villain and the hero, some grow man ****

Feel like a goddamn kid, man I'm Pac and Big (What up?)

"Up" is something that I can't give

Won't see me disappear like the old Ant Viv'

'Cause even on a slow jam, I'm so damn sick

Man I even spread a virus to a program-quick

I gotta focus on my flow and get some dough, man, ****

No dollars got me actin' like I got no damn sense

But peace to my broham's and to my ex-lady

Yeah we been complicatin' things with the *** lately

Maybe I'm being selfish, but nah, I can't help it

'Cause girl we go back like a throwback Celtic, Jersey

Regardless of where God lead us

Just know that I was Martin and you was my Gina, uh

But I'm through living in the past, Lord

No more thinking rewind, I'm more fast forward

Less rear-view mirror and more dashboard

I'm visualizin' cash and stamps on a passport

That CLS with a full tank of gas for it

Cop my mom a whip, *****, and she ain't even ask for it

Wise enough to know that money can't buy you happiness or lovers

But it's gon' get my mama out the struggle

Wise enough to know that money can't buy you happiness or lovers

But it's gon' get my mama out the struggle

Said I'm wise enough to know that money can't buy you happiness or lovers

But it's gon' get my mama out the struggle, *****

I'd like to welcome ya'll to

My life, my life, my life, my life, in the sunshine... (Okay, in the sunshine)

Everybody loves the sunshine

This is the come up, *****, uh, sunshine

Everybody loves the sunshine
