Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Big smoke, SK level
Listen
[Verse 2]
Like a bullet from a gun, it burns
When you realize she was never your girl, it was just your turn
You gotta face your demons, don't matter how much money you earn
Your **** said 4L, but the shit got real and you weren't concerned
The same old story, the world spins round and round, fam
Lessons have to get learned
[Verse 3]
Truth has to be told, I don't bend, I don't fold
I lost count how many we sold
I went silver, I went gold, then I went platinum, so what's next?
Supermodels tryna sex, sending nudes on the text
Can't believe I used to be vex
See it's too easy to write a sad song about how my dad raised me
'Cause I'm looking in the mirror and my dad made me
[Verse 4]
A real top boy, I just can't play the victim
Been living my life as a kingpin
I'm calm with the heat in the kitchen
I was a young boy, mom told me what my name really means
And the power just kicked in
I found my way home then I saw my granddad's name
On a gravestone, the same as mine
Already dead, nothing to fear, I been here from time
[Verse 5]
Chief SK sipping on palm wine
Every day I laugh, these **** online
Another one, here today, gone tomorrow
Dick riding for some likes and a follow
Put in the work, that's all you need to buss
Shoutout Lancey, Headie and J Hus
Shout six seven, oh, you see them with us
We was on tour, bare weed on the bus
Feds outside, the bus gotta push to the city, got a rush
Big plans getting discussed, so freedom is a must
Fuck the police, tell 'em eat my dust
[Verse 6]
'Cause still it ain't safe, not even in a world full of cops
I got bored of asking when is this hurt gonna stop?
We don't wanna conversate or confer with the opps
It is what it is, recently I been learning a lot
All I know is there's no better feeling
Than getting home and seeing my little girl in the cot so
This year we're done talking, forget the bagga chat, it's just action
Man are trolling to get a reaction
Every day it's another distraction
Gotta fight temptation, can't get lost in the sauce
Have I got a heart? Yeah, of course
But I had to put my feelings on pause
[Verse 7]
'Cause like a bullet from a gun, it burns
When you realize she was never your girl, it was just your turn
You gotta face your demons, don't matter how much money you earn
Your **** said 4L, but the shit got real and you weren't concerned
The same old story, the world spins round and round, fam
Lessons have to get learned
