  • [Intro]
  • Uh, yeah
  • You know, um
  • I just wanna apologize, um, in advance, really
  • For all of my mistakes that I'm— I'm bound to make
  • That I've made in the past, though
  • No human is— is perfect and I'm not tryna be, either
  • Yeah, alright
  • [Verse]
  • If only Father Time had the patience of Mother Nature
  • If only I was wiser when I first discovered paper
  • If only Martin Luther never stayed at the Lorraine Hotel
  • Shit, he'd still be alive and well
  • Shout out my nigga Yo Gotti, that's my Memphis connect
  • He always put his niggas on and so I give him respect
  • My right wrist Audemars, left wrist a Patek
  • **** a aux cord, nigga, throw that shit in, cassette tape
  • I went to Westlake High where death rates rise
  • And some people go on to waste the rest they lives
  • I go back every now and then to check they vibes
  • The rest of my classmates workin' tech-based jobs
  • I just bought a Range Rover and did a song with Nas
  • In the belly of the beast where the strong survive
  • Tryna move past the lows and prolong the highs, huh
  • But still I rise, yeah

  • You just gotta relish in the moment, and then—
  • And cherish these moments, dawg, 'cause, like
  • I made it, man, and, um
  • It's not like it's a surprise or anything
  • But I'm just gon' live in this moment
  • And be present at this time, though
  • I'ma be doin' this music shit at the absolute highest level
  • For a long-ass time, man, as long as I want to
  • And, um, that's all I try to do, man, is
  • Give y'all my life and everything from a bird's-eye view
  • Though you must remember that the mantra
  • The way of life is always, huh
  • Everything high-level
  • And— And, also, um
  • I wanna dedicate this album to my grandmother
  • My late grandmother, God rest her soul
  • Janet Dunston
  • Um, she was on my last album singin' interludes, dawg, and, uh
  • Man, I miss that woman so much
  • But, um, I'ma be here for a long time, man
  • As long as I wanna do this shit
