"MUTUAL BONDS" lyrics
(from "Red Clay" soundtrack)
Say this to yourself
I believe in me
You gotta believe in yourself first
Before anyone else can believe in you
I pop with you, if you pop with me
I pop with you, if you pop with me
I pop with you, if you pop with me
I pop with you, if you pop with me
Look, there go somebody flier than me; made ya look
And the voice in your head is God, that's my favorite book
I'm the author, money on the wood, it's understood
But instead I had to skip class, and go and make a jug
College grad, might I add, let me retract
I'm a gift that's already open, let me rewrap
Had it up to here with the money, talking kneecap
It's a thin line between cousin's house and the dfcs
Asked them folks to give me a chance, I'm just a juvenile
Got so high, told my attorney that I'ma sue a cloud
Catch me backing out of a space, I can move a crowd
If somebody die over here, the neighbors moving out
Always get portrayed as a villain, oh what a feeling
Ran this nigga off of adrenaline and got a million
Then got another mill, can't forget the other deal
Yeah, I got plenty more, nigga, I'm talking twenty more
I do a show in the Fendi store
You know I'm great, I'm talking eight, I'm talking twenty-four
I'm talking pool, I'm talking lake, I'm talking tennis court
I'm 6'5, it's hard to ride in an Aventador
I pop with you, if you pop with me
I pop with you, if you pop with me
I pop with you, if you pop with me
I pop with you, if you pop with me
Red clay under my shoes like Louboutin
Out here doing the best we can, just me and my mom
Every now and then, it's a man, and then he'd be gone
If you don't understand what I'm saying, then leave it alone
Environment where I'm from is character building
Get rich, get out the slum, have arrogant children
Go through this you'll probably need therapy, probably need healing
Where I'm from, niggas be robbing, niggas be stealing
Where I'm from I'm in the building, gun in the building
Trapped on the cement, wheeling and dealing
Making it work, wonderful feeling
Take 'em to church, true to my religion
Do the research (do the research)
I pop with you, if you pop with me
I pop with you, if you pop with me
I pop with you, if you pop with me
I pop with you, if you pop with me, yeah
I believe in me
You gotta believe in yourself first
Before anyone else can believe in you
I pop with you, if you pop with me
I pop with you, if you pop with me
I pop with you, if you pop with me
I pop with you, if you pop with me
Look, there go somebody flier than me; made ya look
And the voice in your head is God, that's my favorite book
I'm the author, money on the wood, it's understood
But instead I had to skip class, and go and make a jug
College grad, might I add, let me retract
I'm a gift that's already open, let me rewrap
Had it up to here with the money, talking kneecap
It's a thin line between cousin's house and the dfcs

I pop with you, if you pop with me
I pop with you, if you pop with me, yeah
