Lyrics
Still rock my retro Nike’s on a cold night
Remember riding on my bike I had them hoes ride
Nothing changed accept I’m riding in a old ride
Got a ride or die, she gone play both sides
I know crips and bloods, folk ties
I don’t bang but they know I
I87 ****
Learning lessons making money with my brethren
Work until it’s picture perfect
Cutting up my hedges
Cause there’s snakes in the grass where you’re growing all the lettuce
I couldn’t live with phonies so the homies told me dead em
Don’t forget the past but stay focused where you’re headed
Cause we gone make it where we going just because I said it
These labels want your life, it’s up to you if you bet it
Credit or befit, all money if you sell it
It could break you if you let it
So we rebel it
It’s yours for the taking
Go and take it
Late night
Smoke about 8, 9
Just to myself I been stressing till my grey shine
Dodging every call and every FaceTime
Understand it takes time
Face it, if you take your time widdit it’ll make wine
She sip until she feel it saying, “Bocha it’s been a great time but I only see in the night, let’s kick it in the day time.”
Quick pause then I said, “I’m kinda busy baby, can we talk about it another time?”
They despise when you prioritize
I never take advice from somebody that ain’t got more than I
Seeing life leave a body, shit’ll have you mortified
Horrified to go outside I still managed to stay alive
Make a dime, take some time out your day to go thank your mom
Never will I wait in line, I feel Saddam Hussein in my opinion we can blow your mind with any rhyme or sentence
Watching this all come alive just hoping that y’all listen
It’s yours for the taking
Go and take it
Had to speak it into existence
Then all it really took was some planning and some persistence
I got up off my ass I ain’t wait around for assistance
Complacent people I had to create some distance, now the distance between me and my competition is different
Wise words, just shut the fuck up and listen I got
Perspectives that **** ain’t never thought of
Ain’t worried bout no club shit flexing bottles I bought up
You see the secret’s I never needed their recognition
Dedication, I’m the definition
Hard work paired with repetition
Got me winning, hit her trying positions she never been in
Been official my **** just check my resume
Bars got you out here sounding like you just started this yesterday
Remember
Nothing is ever quite what it seems that’s exactly why I’ll die either living or chasing dreams for the taken
It’s yours for the taking
Go and take it
Yeah, You **** owe me back pay
Don’t waste my time, they say we’re living in our last days
Ain’t cried over a **** since like last May
So any drama boy you can keep it that way
Pay me what I’m worth, oh and add interest
Too busy getting mine, I ain’t that interested
Ain’t no bating me
See I had pimp in my blood since like ‘83
Oh I mean ‘91
Oh I do this for fun
But I want to buy a house for my loved ones
Have some little ones
Live my life in peace
Mind my own black business that’s minding me
Cause you can have it all
You know the world is yours
So go and take it
It’s yours for the taking
Go and take it
