[Verse 1]
You remember how they did me up and jail
My people was living well, my bills, they gave me hell
These ni**as changed, they swore they'd never tell
My right ni**as went left, they salt on the snail, but
I prevailed, I ducked that fu*kin' chair
On death row in a cell, pouring my heart through mail
They laughed at me a lot, sh*ttin' on all my fans who bragged on me a lot, it was nasty love I got
I had to cry to God, hoping he'd hear my call for freedom
Cause I'm all over the nеws, ni**a
Momma said, "Boo we straight, we gon be finе"
Industry said I wouldn't shake back from doing this time
[Chorus]
Gotta throw salt
Here we go again
Got my name in they mouth like some bad ass b*tches
Here we go again
They tried to throw salt
Tried taking me out, with cold words, tried stressing me out
Stayed solid 'til the day I got it
Look at me now, still talking my talk
Man, they tryna throw salt
[Verse 2]
You gon' be dead before you 18, ni**a
This the sh*t the people said so I wouldn't chase dreams, ni**a
They always talking negative and I take heed, ni**a
Even took my face expressions, mane, and make meme's with 'em
Some say I'm lost, well if I'm lost why you ain't tryna find me?
Guess I need some fu*kin' mirrors when you walk behind me
I lost a couple fake friends cause their heart was slimey
A teenager crossed by them, welcome to the 90's
Tried to shatter all my greatness, so they blame my violence
Tried to X me out the game but I won't go in silence
Guess they gon' try to salt my name cause they know I got it
Guess they gon' try to stop the plane when I'm flying private
Nobody album fu*kin' with me, you trippin', ni**a
Mine real, his different, it's no competition
I remember we was jumpin' fences
Now we choppin' game up with politicians, and these ni**as
[Chorus]
Gotta throw salt
Here we go again
Got my name in they mouth like some bad ass b*tches
Here we go again
They tried to throw salt
Tried taking me out, with cold words, tried stressing me out
Stayed solid 'til the day I got it
Look at me now, still talking my talk
Man, they tryna throw salt
