Paroles
0:02Yeah (Yeah)
0:04Yeah, nigga (One two, one two, one)
0:08The Off-Season (One two, one two, one two, one)
0:09The Off-Season, nigga
0:11We offing niggas (Ayy, that's right)
0:15Fuck you talkin’ 'bout? (That's right, ayy)
0:17Offing niggas (Yeah, hey, yeah)
0:20(Vocal up a little more, hey)
0:22Uh, applying pressure
0:24Started my grind where crime festers
0:26And now it’s showing like they in they second trimesters (Pregnant)
0:28That's why when niggas throw a shot or two online,
0:31I pay no mind to their benign gestures (Mm)
0:33Nigga, plеase, I got my mind on much bigger things, to say the lеast
0:36My latest beat just sound like they was released by David East (What up, East?)
0:39Verses hit hard, never pitched hard or played the streets
0:42These niggas' whips hard, behind closed doors, can't pay the lease (Uh)
0:45Ain't nothin' wrong with livin' check to check
0:48'cause most have to (I understand that)
0:49Instead of cappin’,
0:50why don’t you talk about being a broke rapper? (I don't understand that)
0:51That’s a perspective I respect because it's real
0:54What it's like to be nice as fuck but got to stress to pay the bills
0:57That was me in '08, seein’ no cake
0:58Not even on dates I celebrated my birth
1:01Just did the mental math and calculated my worth
1:04Shit crazy, didn't know
1:05I got more M's than a real Slim Shady video (How many of us in here?)
1:08Big Boss, less Rick Ross, more like a wavy Hideo
1:10Kojima, they tote steamers around the way we tippy-toe
1:13'Round crack vials and cold-blooded killers, no reptiles
1:16Just projectiles, from niggas salty you rockin' the fresher textiles
1:20I seen best pals grow up and switch (I hate to see it)
1:22Sometimes over a couple dollars, more often over a bitch (Ah, I hate to see it)
1:25I can cap and say that I never scratched my jealousy's itch
1:28But thank God I conquered that 'cause if not I'd never be rich
1:31Envy, keep your pockets empty, so just focus on you
1:33If you broke and clownin' a millionaire, the joke is on you
1:36Money ain't everything, I never say that (Never)
1:39But niggas throw stones knowin' they sell soul to get wherever they at (Come on, man)
1:42Just know these verses is some shit they gon' forever playback, nigga (Come on, nigga)
1:45Hell yeah (Ooh)
1:50Fuck, you know what it is, nigga
1:54Don't even dare
1:55Niggas try to act like they don't—, bitch
1:58That's why I gotta flex sometimes
2:00'Cause niggas just try to act like you just not that motherfuckin' nigga, like
2:03Like you just really don't do it how you do it
2:07Like niggas will really try to act like you don't do what you do
2:09Nigga look you dead in your face
2:11And really act like you don't do it to the level that you do it
2:15That's why sometimes you gotta come through and just do it at the level that you do it in front of every nigga face
2:19So they know the difference between you, the real niggas,
2:24and the mothafuckin' fraudulent niggas, man
2:27Don't never get it fucked up
2:29If a nigga can't do it like you do it sometimes you
2:31gotta do it in front of his fuckin' face so he'll know forever
2:33Damn, that nigga did it how I always wanted to do it and
2:36I'll never be able to do it like that
2:38Bitch it's a difference (Ah)
2:43(These are the same ones telling our people
2:44what we are and we aren't because we're just not working hard enough
2:46And that mentality is what we're up against today
2:47But this is good to know because this time, when we march on the Capitol
2:51You can go ahead and let 'em know long before
2:53we get there, we're coming to get that check)
