Kids (Explicit)

I’m puttin numbers on the board and blowing more digits

I haven’t started man these are just the before pictures

Shoutout my parents my mother gave birth to 4 winners

All of the players in the game it’s always cold benches

Been in the studio, I forgot how to sleep

Not tryna make an album they forget bout in a week

They said the fruit never gon fall far from the tree

I used to be the kid, now the kids wanna be me

Trippin bout my future, like way before there was cameras

H*lla plans on my calendar, before I went all professional

Less souls to trust man these people makin me cynical

More copycats and less people sounding original

Same destination, we just took different routes

**** being one’the greatest I’m tryn’ be the greatest one

I ain’t sayin I ain’t grateful for everything I’ve become

but the throne looks more comfortable than this chair I’m sittin on

My name is Brian cold bars is what I’m known for

if my vision ain’t scarin me then I don’t go for it

Remember my first days here when it was all foreign

Now I’m on TV with James Corden, (that sh*t was crazy)

Just got a place with a backyard I feel amazing

Nothing can get between me and the dreams I’m chasin

Ain’t got the time for partying no more gettin wasted

Unless you got the 1942 man then get the chaser

You hating on me but you know I got it

You big in your city I’m the king of a continent

These rappers tryna make the trending topic while the state of music going south,

but I don’t even wanna talk about it

Let’s talk about it, nah, let’s talk about it

before all these folks decide it’s cool to give a **** about it,

everyone tryna make hits, I’m just tryna make music

you know the kind that makes you feel when you listen to it

I’m the youngest child I don’t need more attention

You writing some bullsh*t I write the lyrics meant for the captions

I’m making songs that’ll prolly outlive us for generations

Started off as the sailor look at me, now I’m the captain

I won’t lie, this sh*t is fun

tell these Asian kids they could do what they want

might steal the mic at the Grammy’s just to say we won

and that everyone can make it don’t matter where you’re from

Can’t forget about the day that Sean called me

Talkin bout a vision called 88 that he’s dreaming

Man I love him like a brother, if we fall we gon recover

Just a man with a vision who mastered in causing trouble

Man I can’t see the finish line

Fall back, fall back, I ain’t ****in around this time

Did God know he created a legend in 99

**** pretending on a track man I mean every single line

Touched down, never holdin back

Shining like some bustdown, sailin round without a map

Been the underdog now, it’s time to let me quarterback

Killin sh*t in uncharted territories man this sh*t get h*lla gory

Whole country of people proud so I’m never worried

Glad you sittin thru the credits man this is my story

The type of sh*t that make me cry when I record it

This the type of sh*t that still gon make me proud even when I’m 40

R.I.P Nipsey, R.I.P Mac

These inspirations always gon motivate me to rap

Let’s celebrate their lives and the people that they impact

The marathon continues ain’t no way we lookin back

Amazon Prime flow you know I’ll always deliver

We crossed oceans for a chance just to feel something better

Generations of sacrifice, that we’ll always remember

It’s that circle of life sh*t, they hold me up like I’m Simba

They told me I ain’t welcome, I’m here to stay and my visa says so

Just wait and see whose songs they gon blast up in their headphones

Come like every couple years to destroy like tornados

Victorious tropical flow coming straight from Indo

These plants only grow to just get cut and disposed

Their spotlight is dimming, my future so bright that it glows

You want the blueprint for impossible, I’ll let it show

Remember when Pac said the concrete grows a rose
