lyrics

(Verse 1)
Here I go you already know (uh)
Nothing about me but now I’m in your scope so
Hate it or love it but the game chose me
And I’m just getting warmed up singing doe rei me

They all, thinking that I remained low key
Like I’ve been here for years and it ain’t no thing
Dirt off my shoulder, I must have came from
The same strand of disease that is HOV (you think?)

(Hook)
Oh oh oh oh and they already know
And if they don’t mamma, I’mma, I’mma let em know (woah)
Yeah, and I’ll be sure these pussies never forget it
I’m repenting for saying both of them in the same sentence (later)

Oh oh oh oh and they already know
And if they don’t mamma, I’mma, I’mma let em know (woah)
Yeah, and I’ll be sure these pussies never forget it
I’m repenting for saying both of them in the same sentence (later)

(Verse 2)
That’s why I’m rapped up
It feel’s better when you don’t but applause is better than getting the clap uh
And growing up in the city that I’m from
You loose sight of yourself when you’re knowing everyone, else

Still there’s times when you feel alone
Dinner for one knowing no one else is coming home
But fuck love, we just love to fuck
I just hate serving two come breakfast and lunch

(Hook)

(Verse 3)
Knives, forks, spoon, thousand island sauce (knife!)
Cut the foreplay straight to main course
Not the entrée, I said
Uh, I love garlic bread and head

That being said, who gon’ do me the combo
Followed by Lebron v Rondo
I ain’t talkin’ the court do the math
Not the numbers on the board check the numbers on the backs (hey)


(Bridge)
Hey ho, They already know
And if they don’t mamma I’mma let em’ know (Ohh)
That’s my M.O.D.E. on the low
Cause It might take a minute before you’re wit it but yo, yo

Hey ho, They already know
And if they don’t mamma I’mma let em’ know (Ohh)
That’s my M.O.D.E. on the low
Cause It might take a minute before you’re wit it but yo, yo

(Verse 4)
That’s where the beauty lies
Picture this it’s like a guy in the city looking typical in suit and tie
Beside that another photo of a Jewish guy
In a synagogue praying for the sins of you and I

But the suit and tie walking through a storm
Completely dry, sporting a gold crown of thorns
As for the Jewish guy, drawn devil horns
I’d like y’all to clap for escaping the norm

(Clap), (Clap), (Clap), (Clap), (Hey!)

(Hook)



















*Bonus track*
One Two

(Intro)
Yeah, On the day I fail to wake
Say something at the wake
If they ask where to bury him
Make it at 15 Millenium

Yeah, Say something at the wake

(Hook)
If they ask where to bury him
Make it at 15 Millenium
With a DGK 8.12
A nice one too
Make that shit come true
And leave a mic there too
So I can check 1, 2

(Verse 1)
I was born into this house, none other
Had a dad he had a spouse, my mother, she was tougher then tough mudder
She taught me the course of life for how I saw it
And nothing was forced forward unless it was important

I’d be exploring every inch of the fortress
Mind of a child, buck wild yet cautious
Picking up things, ripping things, licking things
To choking on a bone trying to eat a chicken wing

Cutting an apple became a finger massacre
Hunger had to wait so the doctor could wrap it up
And now everytime I see that scar I’m smiling
So everywhere I go that’s just home, reminding

Me of things like my first memory
Unwrapping birthday presents I was 3
Surrounded by my grandmother, parents and my brothers
Celebrating our 3rd year here with one another

Yet, I can hardly remember last year
Due to the parties, spirits and the beer
But I ain’t been away from this place of joy and mistakes
So ey

(Hook)

(Verse 2)
That’s how my childhood was spent no price would match it
Became a teen now I, needed a bigger mattress
Cause most of these girls were peaking up on their flat chest
I was trampolining my bed like it’s a crash test

Damn, that reminds me of crash dummies
Regret emptying my basket for money
Like later street sharks, peace biker mice from mars
Gotta go Gi Joe, Action man you went hard

Traded in my transformers for a camcorder
After school at a school we were skateboarders
Had a crew, my cousin, two other dudes
Every god damn day, weekends and afternoons

At 15 then we started city missions
Met at skatebiz 10am shit was religion
Hit the streets, some weeks, 40 deep
MOBBN’

(Hook)

(Verse 3)
Yo, And to this day, I’ve never moved
Been here 21 years come june it’s 22
I'm feelin' like my stay is a little overdue
And the bed is still single women looking confused

Like I give a fuck, wait yeah I do
Still hit it, still in it what's a little less room
you were frontin’ in the cab like you had nothin’ to lose
But the mattress got you actin like a virgin when you move (Ha)

And I ain't got a curfew anymore
But my mother's on the other side of the wall
I gotta go, this adult, and a half household
Got me feeling like yo, I gotta grow (uh)

Confessions of the last one at home
Excited to leave but don't wanna leave her alone
Or, confessions of the last one at home
Like yo, It's time to go

(Hook)

(Breakdown)
On the day I fail to wake
So on the day I fail to wake
Say something at the wake

(Hook)
