Never Been Told

Yeah never been told never been told

I started hangin'with my older cousin

Now my family callin'me a thug

But he the one that show me love

So he the one that get my trust

Yeah he the one that slangin'dr*gs

Even I don't really give a f**k

I think he just misunderstood

That ni**a really from the mud

I'm tryna take him from the hood

See I'm tryna take him from the hood

I'm tryna give my ni**as dots

You in my way and I'm surprised

I drop up them pot

Drop buyers been lie

Drop top feels right

Since a boy I been stylin'

Every time I get to ballin'

My mama always get to bawling

She says she think I got a problem

She think that I'ma workaholic

Or what ever you wanna call it

I just be livin'in the moment

It cost a lot for my to call this

But I can't cop 'em in my coffin

I swear I do it way too often

I run it up and run amuck

You can't defeat the one on one

Especially not one on one

Mic strike like lightning

Bright night white lighting

Ni**as really like biting

Ni**as really mike tyson

Ni**as really mike tyson

Aye ezzy I feel you

Aye we gon'spark one up for the city

Aye started blazin'rolling papers

Gettin'faded way before I was shavin'

That must have been 7th grade then

Way back in aunties basement

Way back when I was anxious

Way back catching cases

Legal fees got me workin'hard tryna pay back daddy's savings

Why they tell me be patient

Why they tell me be gracious

Why don't they acknowledge I did all this by myself I ain't need favors

God damn I be gettin'high

Doesn't mean I'm getting lazy

Teachers teaching 'bout reagan

I'm tryna be jay z

Only presidents in my residence all got green faces

I don't put em in the banks neither

Bet it all on races

Spades game throwing aces

Crib lookin'like vegas

Cleveland in my blood b**ch

That sh*t ain't changin'

Ipad new playlist

I'm that new favorite

Eyes red like satans

Roll white like angels

I'm suited up like frank was

Sam cooke sam davis

Now I'm tryna be the greatest

That's a motherf**kin'statement

Limitations only for the fakers

I can do whatever like a matrix

18with a baby on the way

2years later major labels

Dappin'kobe like he know me

Feet on the wood sittin'at the staples

Face on the big screen

Rooting for my home team

All that sleepin'on me

And you still ain't chasin'no dreams

And you crazy everybody tryna milk me still ain't gettin'no cream

I only do my own thing

I only want the whole thing

My flow is like a mo**hine

I only want the mo**hines

I'm headed from the bottom to the top and I ain't stoppin'

No that is not a option

Ni**as livin'like it's gotham

These ni**as robbin'gotta watch 'em

Sick and tired of living out of fear

So they gon'hate me when I'm outta here

They wonder how I do it all without a deal man

That's just how it is for real

Like I don't know I just got the skill for real
