Pre Verse I:
THIS IS MY WEED SONG / THIS IS MY E SONG / THIS is MY yes I RAP CAUSE I NEED ME SOME CHEESE SONG / HOW COULD I BE WRONG? /
HONESTY’S THE BEST POLICY / AND WITH THE TRUTH THAT I SPEAK / YOU NIGGAS GONNA ACKNOWLEDGE ME /
Verse I:
I / done tried your 9-5 /
(nah) That shit was not for me /
(I’m) /
tired of trying hard/
watching y’all walk on easy street /
believe it G /
I too have dreams of fucking r&b queens /
with no such luck just a buck and a lonely bottle of Beam //
the tears of the ghetto I’m steady sippin’ on /
crush the E & pick up the green to give that spliff a home /
still in the zone where gunners pop you out your bones /
bitches’ll shock you with a clone /
it’s ghetto alimony money they want //
I can’t knock they hustle get it by any means //
whether it’s drugs or success you'll find yourself plenty fiends /
and plenty pennies done found themselves in the wishing well /
so if the door to heaven is locked sinner then give em hell..
Chorus:
Living for the city in a single night /
Searching for some solace in the sunrise
trip stacks in the backseat tongue tied /
rolling in the whip/
while I’m looking toward the sky saying..
I ain’t come to lose /
I ain’t here to lose/
I know me /
I am here to prove /
I could do it too /
save me from the streets /
save me from myself/
pray me unto wealth/
til we get it
then we got it /
then we cash in on ourselves mayne…
Pre Verse II: THIS IS MY TRAP SONG / MY COUNTING STACKS SONG / THIS IS MY YES I RAP CAUSE THESE NIGGAS IS WACK SONG / I’M TELLING FACTS Y’ALL /
HONESTY’S THE BEST POLICY / AND WITH THE TRUTH THAT I SPEAK / YOU NIGGAS GONNA ACKNOWLEDGE ME /
Verse II:
I / done heard your precious tales /
amused your favorite fables /
tabled your script reads /
and sent you right back to your agents /
the jungle city savior /
earning stripes and dodging labels /
am to the pm I carpe diem
while dishing flagrants /
no layups /
A. Mason /
Yung Oakley /
in the Car bumpin’ Michael /
I keep it so Stokely /
yell black power from trap towers to Rolls Rocees /
I’m only in it for black cards x gold trophies /
tell the mayor if his idea of the city don’t include us /
then we’ll be up at Gracie with a few trucks /
all of my niggas hoppin out with bad intentions /
a wall full of urban rebels and a ditch for politicians /
while we sing…
Chorus:
Living for the city in a single night /
Searching for some solace in the sunrise
trip stacks in the backseat tongue tied /
rolling in the whip/
while I’m looking toward the sky saying..
I ain’t come to lose /
I ain’t here to lose/
I know me /
I am here to prove /
I could do it too /
save me from the streets /
save me from myself/
pray me unto wealth/
til we get it
then we got it /
then we cash in on ourselves mayne…
