[Verse] Lately, you been feeling like n***as doubt me Trust me, they ain't got no staying power Left Atlantic bout' a minute later Every record label try and scout me Representing all official n***as Intelligent, fly, and get b**hes n***a I tell her to fly, she catch a delta Or she rode, watch her get to stepping AKA, I be speaking wreckless 07' my supreme jacket AKAs out Virginia State My 2nd year, I tried to get one pregnant Early bird, that was Petersburg Now, my little bird fly to [?] Halliburton full of Blues Brothers Ain't no Akroyd or Belushi neither Paranoid, so I'm drinking heavy Hearing voices, so I sleep heavy Had a choice, I can turn a back I be runninback for a a team or something Kick return, wide-receiver money Now, I'm sneaking burners in the club I'm not concerned about who beefing with us I can give em words, I can beat em up Rap dudes, I'm Zab Judah Hook, cross, jab, jab through em' Uber access in a maxima She was a maxi mad, she got a attitude But, I'm Culo, I'm not a little n***a tryna' Big Boy I'm like the outcast of the new school Spent about three stacks on a bitcoin I got dick for her You a simp, why you gotta buy a gift for her Might buy a Ferrari, you buying Foamposites and walk around like we ain't different sh**, ya'll just Instagram Ya'll just Twitter sh** I ain't about to tit for tat, but n***a check the map Guess who put sh** there? Me, Folarin I got her, and I can outrap my opponents And I'm not too popular, media treat my pa**ion like a hazard or something Ya'll get the handoff and fumble it I get it and never kimora it Simple city n***as wild with me, so you outta town n***as humble it Ga**ing on beats, and I look sweet The homies is h*monyms out in these streets You probably is wondering what does that mean? I ain't too deep, but I ain't too deep Sweeet I am the legend n***as trying to be Went to Portland before I signed with my team n***as couldn't fly on they feet Never that broke sh** applying to me Forever that dope sh**, it run in my blood like I'm sipping mud And tired to sleep We laughin at who thought it's quiet for me I quietly quietly built my empire, set afire to the rivaling teams I'm a lion, you infusely lying I devour anybody bothering me All of my queens got blood on they speakers All of my women be loyal and honest Take em' all shopping then burn the receit Who f**ing with me? [Interlude] Nah really? Who f**ing with me? Folarin, the godbody flow The godfather himself Rest in Peace to Chuck Brown He said, "Young man, when it's your time, you'll have the whole nation's capital and the surrounding towns and burroughs to be following you [Verse 2] And I got that down Flex attitude made her drop that down I'm off that brown I'm from uptown In the school of Maryland, guess I'm from there now
