Never gotta flex but I got 'em like whoa
See me in stu', dude, high up in the dome
Cooking with a crew, who would've ever known
We would take it this far coming from the soul
Didn't know we'd get far
Did a couple shows
And I keep it lowkey but a speaker 'bout to blow
Know I gotta thank God
Do it on the low
When I'm home all alone on my own, no phone
I'm told to atone for my sins then I grow
Get it right, chest light, then I'ma glow
See me in the books but no centerfold
Book of life type I ain't tryna be bold
I be tryna keep it low
Keep it humble in my flow
I ain't flexing with the gold or the money or the cold ice
I don't need no vice...
You can't take it all with you said the old advice
Ya
Better say that twice
If you all about the money I don't play that type
I'ma listen to the artist who gon' change that sight
Not that artist who went and bought it for the A-list rights
Nah
But some about it and they make up their mind
And they leaving it for no reason 'cause they whipping the ride
Ripping that life, superficial riches, dip in the pie
Make it a slice, maybe two, 'cause the greed in their eyes
Yeah
Gotta leave it behind
I'm only taking what I'm needing for a simpler time
If you be sowing you be reaping more than dollars and rides
You gotta focus on the realest not material highs
Nah
Lets keep it real with no subliminal lie
You can tell it by the presence and the way that it feel
A creeper fiending for some reason to exploit the whole deal
Don't be a cheater tryna mess the gear up breaking the wheel
Nah
Dismiss the nonsense
The wolf will profit
See through the toxic fumes in the mosh pit
Where the cash at
Don't trip in that trap
Where you be scheming and be thieving
Get a backpack
Get your own books
Get a new look
I ain't talking 'bout no gucci or a new cut
I'm talking 'bout a modern fam' plan, all clutch
Talking 'bout a chill spot with ya true love
Suburban homestead
I'm feeling all set
Not for the moment
But for the whole set
I'm throwing no bets
I only make checks
Me and my baby cook a stew up and it beefless
Never gotta flex but I got 'em like whoa
See me in stu', dude, high up in the dome
Cooking with a crew, who would've ever known
We would take it this far coming from the soul
Didnt know we'd get far
Did a couple shows
And I keep it lowkey but a speaker 'bout to blow
Know I gotta thank God
Do it on the low
When I'm home all alone on my own, no phone
