That 70's heroin
Heroin pressed on
Teflon
I got so many kids in the game
It's like a gender revealing
I got that feeling Lionel Richie Dancin' on the Ceilin'
Hope it resemble a Van Gogh
When you paint me the villain
The hate is real
But you should know that the love is way realer
Crafty with a pen way before I could pack 'em in
Nasty with dreads a slim teen young I was passionate
A brand new book crackling sound
When you open I'm writing gems
I make gospel in thе booth
It might sound like I'm writing hymns
Put designer with thе Timbs wow
They wanna run with my style
40-16 Building bussin' 'em down
And the fiends was like employees bringin' customers 'round
Hurricane waters n**gas had dreams of flooding the town
Weather report looking rainy but I skate through it daily
In a new grey Mercedes waterproof Jordan Laney's
Some sizzling scorchin'
Handsomely how they gotta pay me
Every recording off the head I'm in the studio lately
