[Intro]
I’m in the city, uhh, uhh
Don’t blow my phone, be there in a minute
Gotta make moves like 50, gotta da game
Not tryna ruin my gains
Niggas always talkin’, sendin’ shots, Mary pop ’em
Tryna stir the pot, I call this Betty Rocket
Pocket leave ’em rockin’ like a swift deposit
Ain’t no other option, lately I been manic
Life is fucken frantic, I can’t understand it
⸻
[Verse 1]
All I wanna do is chill, but I gotta go and get it
Time is now, I can’t depend on you, I’m movin’ solo dolo
Niggas is stuck in the past, Bandicoot crash
Walk on this path, all you can see is destruction
Met with ’em once at a function
I said pipe down, niggas actin’ foo, I can’t trust ’em
They be too loud and bitches always trippin’
Set you up for the low, watch your back with them sharks in the water
Filter out the bullshit before they drain you from your energy
Take another bottle to the face, no more fight in me
It really gets me tight they ain’t there when I need ’em
When all you showed was loyalty, but fuck it, I ain’t even trippin’
⸻
[Hook / Chorus]
Put my feelings in the bank where they should’ve been
Sometimes I can’t see right, my brothas locked up in the pen
Young M better hold tight, we been ballin’ since lil jits
When they speak your name, put respect or I’m trippin’
This bitch give me double M’s, shout big M
And fuck these lil pussy-ass niggas that be speakin’ on your family name
Know that we ain’t here to play, they —
He said lil boy, you gotta gift, aye
⸻
[Verse 2]
I know I’m meant to be a king
I can see the diamonds on my wrist, but I don’t need a thing
Down bad at my happiest, roll up, time to smoke sum
Got my notepad, can’t stop writin’, it’s a ritual
Pain turn to lyrics, that’s habitual
Whole lotta scars, but it’s visual
They don’t see the nights I stayed spiritual
They don’t hear the fights that’s invisible
Still I rise like the sun in a mirror room
Everything I lost, I was meant to lose
Still the same soul, just a different tune
Manifest the pain, let it bloom
⸻
[Bridge]
I done walked through fire, walked through rain
People switched sides but the hunger remain
City keep movin’, I been in my lane
Made mistakes, but I learned from the pain
Ain’t no love in the streets, but I found my peace
When I put it in the pen and I let it release
Whole new beast, I’m a product of grief
But I found that belief underneath
⸻
[Outro]
I’m in the city, uh, uh
Don’t blow my phone, be there in a minute
Everything I lost gon’ come back different
It’s ritual, that’s how I’m livin’
Put my pain on the page, that’s the mission
Every line I drop — premonition
If I fall, I’ma rise, repetition
Jay Lisby, yeah, that’s the vision
