I can’t believe this kid is 17. If he was white and/or middle-class he’d be considered a child prodigy. We’ve gotta keep our eye on this young man for real. Young genius.
N——s wanna know what I’m about
I’m bout blowin’ loud on the block sporty
Glock40 in a politician mouth
I take the competition out
Commission wit’ my composition
Who the kid spittin’ behind the bars
Like a con position
Gotta give ‘em time to listen
They’ll soon bump to it they’ll like me
I kick it like Nike they’ll soon adjust to it
But if you hate I know you must do it
I ain’t mad at you I keep my attitude in school
Learn ya bucks and do it
I’m out for presidents to represent me
Yo’ chick keep messaging me
Who the bestest MC?
They be mentioning me
Too hot, I be molestin’ the beat
F—- math, teachers should teach us
and get smith & wessons off the street
So first class be a lesson from me:
F—- what you teach if it’s egregious
I’m flyin’ over regions, reaching all time highs where Jesus can’t reach us
Censor me and get the recipe to make you rest in peace
This is for my n—-as, killas
Hundred-dollar-billas
On the block in the rock spot
Glock cocked, watchin’ out for cops
All about they cheddar
Young girls don’t know nothin’ that’s better
Like f—- a prison letter
Those Beretta’s led us to the lettuce
Real ass fetishes, menaces
Want the senator’s percentages
If you ain’t prejudice you still a nemesis
Smokin’ on a clematis
Get open like a present is
Now your presence is on the premises for them presidents
My city be the genesis for where they think the terror is
They linking terrorists from the Stuy
Then linking terraces
They on that wrecker sh—
They leave you left for the dead
Kids don’t play: They’ll erase your head in a race for the bread
Children on the corners slingin’ some reds
Poppin’ some meds
Jakes be so deep in cover they be chasin’ the feds
I be back stage grippin’ haze breakin’ my leg
My folks was makin’ the best
When they was naked in bed, muthaf—-a…
One day I’m tryna have a wife and kids
So I just can’t live my life like this
And I ain’t tryna learn what lifeless is
So I just can’t live my life like this
I want the golden chains and diamond rings
But I just can’t live my life like this
And sometimes I just wanna light this spliff
But I just can’t live my life like this…
Hell fucking yes…
