Yeah, uhh, uhh, uhh, yeah
Space age forever, know what I'm sayin'?
Space age forever, space age, baby, yeah
Uhh, yeah, yeah

The name of the game is get no sleep
Mash on, niggas, and always roll deep
Non stop hustle means all profits double
Young nigga tryin' to see rocks like Barney Rubble

Vampire, circulate when the moon rise
Do dirt when most people got closed eyes
Rollin', livin' off garbage and scraps
Niggas wouldn't even f*ck with me if I had rap

Thinkin' 'bout that man, that's just another trap
Another nigga dead from another nigga's strap
Space aging every thought and everything I write
Livin' for today, a nigga might die tonight

Just because a nigga think I'm a celebrity
They want to rob and jack and try to bury me
Forced entry embedded in my memory
Fightin' sleep like Freddie Kruger tryin' to get me

In the midst, I wanna see it, not hear about it
If a nigga wanna see it, gotta be about it
Can't do without it, sayin', till my life end
Every night, they like, "Catch me up again"

You say, like daylight, it's gonna catch me up again
(Gonna catch me up, gonna catch me up again)
Some people like gettin' up when I'm just gettin' in
(It's gonna catch me up, gonna catch me up again)

I look up, I can't see the forest full of trees
Destined to make it through, regardless of the seas
Of evil that been planted, sproutin' concrete walls
So everybody has stained deals
After all, you playin wrong

Now you havin' to climb so you can make it
Got the whole roll block, and too thick for you to break it
Don't fake it, you know it's kinda hard to try to shake it
The camel's tellin' you to come on, you had to cake it

Mr. Mistake It, Mr. Do Nothing, uncle, give me something
You mouth tellin' me, love, but I ain't feelin' none, stealin' some
Same positions I've been facin' for years
Now I'm about to put some steak in this meal, inflatin' my bills

Excusin' you hoes who want fame
Using you hoes for one thang
F*ck how you changed, bitch
It's funny why you stayed around
And patience how you laid me down
Now you expectin' the crown

I'm full time, respectin' the game
Checkin' out the girls in change
A turd in the hand is far worse than a turd in commode
Let that shit float on, 'cause that shit get old

It seems that daylight is gonna catch me up again
(Gonna catch me, gonna catch me up again)
Some people like gettin' up when I'm just gettin' in
(It's gonna catch me up, gonna catch me up again)
Well, well

Yeah man, I don't know what the f*ck wrong with niggas though
Marshmallow ass niggas, man, comin' around here, man
Tryin' to f*ck with these, motherfucker
Hard time, home grown ass niggas like Eightball and MJG man
Niggas got like fucked up, man, know what I'm talkin' about, man?

Niggas comin' around here, man
Niggas don't know we came out hard in '93
But we was pimpin' before that
You know what I'm talkin' about, nigga?

We had shit goin on, man, nigga, we were doin' that shit
Coast to coast, state to state, nigga pimpin'
Mississippi, Tennessee, Alabama, Louisiana, nigga
Now we New York, L.A., yeah, nigga

Know what I'm talkin' about, nigga?
I'm talkin' about Orange Mound, nigga
I was born and raised in that motherfucker, nigga
I spent 21 years of my life in that motherfucker, nigga
East coast of Memphis, Tennessee, nigga
You don't know what I'm talkin' about?

Right there nigga, all my motherfucking life, nigga
Space age means this shit will last to an infinite motherfucking time, nigga
This is not ever gonna stop, nigga
Do you hear what I'm tryin' to say to you motherfuckers?

Space age means this shit is gonna last an infinite amount of time
You can never stop this pimpin', what's going on down here
Suave House, Houston, Texas
Yeah, I'm tryin' to tell you motherfuckers

We're connected all over the motherfuckin' map, nigga
We're connected with the Louisiana boys, nigga
We're connected with the Mississippi boys, nigga
We're connected with them Nashville boys, nigga

We're connected with the motherfuckin' New York boys, nigga
We're connected with the motherfuckin' PA boys, nigga
We're connected with the motherfuckin' Oakland boys nigga
We're connected with the motherfuckin' Philly hoe boys, nigga

We're connected with the motherfuckin' Chicago boys, nigga
We're connected with the motherfuckin' Georgia boys, nigga
We're connected with the motherfuckin' Louisville boys, nigga
We're connected with the motherfuckin' Cleveland boys, nigga

We connected all the way around this motherfucker, nigga
With them Kansas City boys, nigga
I'm tryin' to tell you boys, nigga
Don't step to this pimpin', nigga
