I only come out when it's time to pay The grinder's wage, the cost of every line I say Appreciates with time it's like a stock or a bond I save And if words were dollars I'd be rich but they ain't And if thought or scholarship was dope I'd be dank If the smoke was the pain that I feel from all the hopelessness, shame From the wokeness I gained you could Roll me up and toke me away, shit I Just been tryna find a groove with it In my slippers on the stoop sitting New chick got me stiffer than a new fitted Told her you an escape for me and she was cool with it And I don't wanna need need need my vices, I just wanna free my mind But if I'm gon' believe my life is mine, baby I'm gon' have to redefine
My momma told me one thing about you baby Is that you always show up, when it's time But I been takin Ls all month I been win-free I'm feelin' like Oprah, I'm on my grind though And if I fuck it up, fuck it. If I fuck it up, fuck it 'Cause when it's time to show up I'mma show up Sho' 'nough baby matter of time, matter of time

If I fuck it up, fuck it 'Cause when it's time to show up I'mma show up Sho' 'nough baby matter of time, matter of timeTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
