"Who I Am" lyrics

Just something significantly extravagant
How's it feel?
DJ Drama

I don't go to family functions
They all basin' who I am just off their assumptions
Leave the crib and there's police I'm duckin'
They're askin' me for money like I'm Jeff Bezos
Auntie, I'll still cook yayo, whip it till it's all mayo
I'll go through my block now, movin' like I'm El Mayo
Never ever been trialed, problems that I've piled up
Ever since a child, uh, got me kinda riled up
Had a take step back since I had my own, uh
I had never known love, always paranoid, me
Always kept my own gun, surrounded by these people
I still feel alone, son, nothin' 'round here's wholesome
Everything is wholesale, sell it by the load, son
Ten years in the trap shit, I knew I was chosen
Bussin' down this whole pack, bag it in the tour bus
When I was little, I only felt the cold shoulder
It made me who I am, whatever room I step in, I don't change up who I am
I've around misunderstood, but one day they'll understand
Could've bought a fuckin' chain but I didn't, I had plans
Gotta put the order in, gave the jeweler his hundred grand
Never show the world your hand 'cause they bite the hand feeds, I throw rocks at all these fiends
I don't hide my hand away, if you love me why not call me? Why you feel a type of way?
Communication is the reason why we fell, just to keep up with the ones that we really say we love
What can a brother do? I need money, no, not hugs
I need grace from Lord above, oh
I need grace from Lord above, oh
I need grace from Lord above, oh

I'm like the greatest middle man that ever lived
I'm the bridge between the music and the people
That's just who I am

I owe it all to Hector
He used to front me packs when I was unemployed and desperate
Lookin' back, he'd probably say I was his best investment
I hate I had to lose him just to see how much he blessed me
But takin' Ls is like a jail call, you just accept it
I finally found a way to live at peace without my weapon
Surrender the surroundings that program us through aggression
Success should feel infectious, these violent niggas jealous
So I celebrate in silence when progressin', when progressin', shh
They wanna see me down and out
Fell in love with countin' up 'cause niggas tried to count me out
Blame me for your failures like I ain't got shit to die about
But when you keep it real, niggas run out of shit to lie about
It's sick as hell
Grown men waitin' on yo' dream to make them rich as hell
Niggas think that takin' risks is flippin' coins in wishing'wells
Tryna get ahead, it ain't my fault that you keep pickin' tails
You should take yo' insecurities to get a BBL
