lyrics

I ain't got no gang
Gang gang gang gang

I ont speak yo slang
I know yo handshakes
I ont wear ur colors
I ain't jump ur mans in
I roll solo solo
They say my words might get killed
The truth is just real
Fuck is the deal
The weird kid
Into chemistry and science
Felt more art should a been in school
But they kept wanting me silent
My mind is
On an island
I was rhyming
At lunch time
But they turned out to be timeless
My son gotta face the world
Day 1 gotta face the world
I remember this blood Nigga was dusted
Put a gun in the face of a girl
I was like No!
He was like whoa
I know ur cousin Bart
They ain't teach us how to stay in school
Hope yo ass is smart
So I ain't get no tats
No burns
No codes
My mind developed a sense of self
While families hearts were turned into snow cones
Went to school
Made music not hit records
They said I ain't rich yet
I should stop investing
But I ain't got no gang
I ain't ask for advice
We should travel the world
I ain't even gone ask twice
You don't do what I do
How you know how I should do it
I'm a winner
At least right now I'm not here losing

I ain't got no gang
Gang gang gang gang

I was bad at sports
Always hogged the ball
I was bad at trains
Always loved the whore
Harlem River Yacht Club
stressing I don't got one
always checkin in tho
Just in case it pop up
#ohenethingispossible
That statement is not lots of bull
tell themselves
his lines Were easily craftable
Nobody with him
when I see him
I'ma smack the boy
I ain'tgot no gang
Never been a herb tho
Crack was wack to me
Selling on this herb tho

My click left me
my bitches left me
the money came

My momma died
At night I cry
Ain't been the same

They know my name
For what I do
And call it fame

I am the son
Around the world
I'm back again

I've been sinning
I've been winning
But I forgot to pray

They been doubting
I've been killin
The way I move without em
I'm a villain
I'm just chilling
Some will sell they soul for a million
Or want the quickest way to the feelin
I don't even think I fit it
I don't even care if u get it
See I make it so electric
I don't got it
Manifest it
Went from Pockets Anorexic
To pockets boleemic
To pockets looking fatter than a muafuaka when u see it
I tell the story they believe it
Cause my past is a strong enough reason
We accuse of you treason
And they don't wanna lose u to bleeding
depends what you do this evening
My life is a who's who of weekends
Surfing off the deep ends
Modern Waves
I'm the sun I see a lot of shade
I rap I know a lot of gays
Between the street fights and the barbershop
The God done seen a lot of fades
MTA pebble beach a lot.of trains
I used to serve a lot of blame
Before this Thanksgiving
I knew Frank women
I used to rank women
I never thanked women
Only spank and skank women
Shit there's been a lot of change
How u tell a man working
On his lifes opus
He ain't focused
Standin next to him
I'm going after what I want
Like A refugee Mexican
I got paid to party
Party then got laid
Spent a bunch of money
And that got me paid
Tatted on my body
Got some songs in my heart
Keep it in the fam
Have my kin do the art
