est '04
Waste not, want not
Crossed roads when they all naughts
Deposed when the beat stops
Prepared for the long nights
And the dark days
With no windows
When it stay quiet
‘Til the wind blows
Taking my place
Like a repo
Got them credit card bills
I don’t need those
Got my own steeze brah
I don’t need yours
They ain’t ready for these
The aesthetics don’t please
Swear they playing on easy
But game don’t need ‘em
Saying life ain’t fair but we still get even
I live life like a dare if I’m tight then it’s rare,
The excitement is there the confinement compared
Ain’t shit but a square
Mindset out the box
But I’m headed for the top
I mean that much is clear but
What I come from
Shit that you could run from
Way that I get numb from
What you really want from me
What get from me
You got me somebody baby
On that New Orleans
Rolling like you proud of something
Yeah yeah, yeah yeah
Rolling you proud it’s amen, amen (x2)
Rolling like you proud of some (thing)
Rolling like you proud of some (thing)
Rolling like you proud of something
Know I do this for myself
Just to prove it to myself
To do justice to their memories
For my mum, my aunty, uncle and poppa ‘zeke
With the cards that we were dealt
Know I ain’t struggled more than most
Put that victim on the belt
When I feel the danger close
What’s the damage you inherited invariably
When I know I lost conviction found integrity
I just wanna make my dad proud
Make my sister and my cousins and my girl proud
Make the most of all the minutes when they ran down
Fighting focus in the present let my guard down
Conscious more than ever set the bar up, aye
When you ready set to call up, yeah
At the bottom only fall up
In the silence had to ball up, yeah
In the finish when it’s all luck
What’s the difference when it’s your luck
What I come from
Shit that you could run from
Way that I get numb from
What you really want from me
What get from me
You got me somebody baby
On that New Orleans
Rolling like you proud of something
Yeah yeah, yeah yeah
Rolling you proud it’s amen, amen (x2)
Rolling like you proud of some (thing)
Rolling like you proud of some (thing)
Rolling like you proud of something
