Dostoyevsky

Yo, the universe let the planets align Spent 10k in the card, didn't decline Bartender, one Casamigos and lime I'm celebrating gracefully, getting better with time I ain't even halfway through this incredible ride But like, I'm kind of doing an incredible job When I was eighteen living beyond my means I was afraid of my dreams, looking at the finer things Wishing I could l flip to a microchip from a paper clip Upgrade to a spaceship from a basic whip Cash rules everything, I just wanted a taste of it Fast food hurrying, saving time, not wasting it Self-saboteur, speaking it to my paramour Torch rappers like I'm igniting the aerosol Maintaining the wherewithal that embarrass y'all Game changer the way I shredded your cabbage off Explaining this changin' apples to applesauce When we were young, innocence was ours, but that was lost Where I reside is the dark side of the glory The fury I manipulate is the arc of the story Written without a ghostwriter to author it for me This is crime and the punishment, I'm the judge and the jury Listen, Dostoyevsky I swam with crocs, fish with sharks I never popped charge, but I know I'm popular I was built to run the game, I came up playing guard With young niggas between 5'5" and 6 foot 4 I banged over both, trying to bank over some more And ball out in something gorgeous that'll keep me in court Where they'll judge like y'all does, y'all don't know me enough Y'all still owe us for what all y'all did to the cold crush To my donuts I'm shooting J. Dillas and what I wanna cop when I get loot and recoup I had to go through hella doors so in short that's why I only won two But I ain't got Jay number, I CC 'em the proof 'Cause everything I pictured in my head is always coming true They say you need vision to see eye to eye with the jews Spent 25 hundred on sheep skin, let it seep in I ain't turn starboy in a weekend It took more like 7 years, make a sane man drink Everclear It ain't ever clear Yeah, we ain't ever guaranteed the year Fruits of your labor, huh, you work hard to get it Jamla stitched on the motherfucking ROC fitted Before the big life I had to start with the scrimmage Know that it'd come sooner or later, I'm Trae Young, nigga Huh, I'm Trae Young, nigga Uh, I said Dostoyevsky meets Joe Pesci Tired of staring at a glass half empty Turning me from Dr. Sebi to cocking semi It got me clutching my machete from the Serengeti already Wild Style and Fab Five Freddy I'm a stranger in Moscow Don't ask how deadly is the ummah Patrice Lumumba, Kwame Nkrumah To the Tripoli shores from the halls of Montezuma, stop intruder I'm built on facts, I'm not your rumor A malignant tumor, slid through in a suede Puma The steady heavy legendary, all praise is overdue Same cloth as the chosen few, rap Noble Drew I guarantee you no more music by the suckers It's not a victimless crime if anybody suffers In a system that was designed for them to try to cuff us Well, what's the use for them trying when can't nobody touch us? Unless it's fabricated, probably drug related But love or hate it, I will not be subjugated When they scream at you the greatest that did it, was underrated As if every other player who spit it was unrelated If every man's a temple the circumstance is simple So to be transcendental I do enhance the mental This is elder statesmen conversation Take a look into them books from down in the basement, yeah
