Starlito & Tay Keith Lyrics
(Tay Keith, fuck these niggas up)
This my story, this my psalm, somethin' like blessed assurance
Uh
Ayy, Jermaine
Why don't you tell these niggas the truth?
Wanna tell my own story, don't want nobody to tell it for me
Started off metaphoric, then I went allegory
Then it got boring touring and recording, recording and touring
The way that it's been goin', I need some more insurance
You might oughta get security if you can afford a Urus
I'm tapped in when I touch down, I'm more than a tourist
'Fore I slip up, bet my lawyer be addressin' the jury
This my story, this my psalm, somethin' like blessed assurance
Only thing they ever taught us to invest in was jewelry
But what you really willin' to die for? Just a question, I'm curious
It's a correlation between self-respect and endurance
Fuckin' right, I'm still dope, need a connect? I'm the purest (Lito)
Reactin' off emotion, that's some ho shit
Gon' make me send some roses to your old bitch
Gon' make me pull a nigga card like it's go fish
Like I ain't see a platinum plaque back in '06
Like I ain't seen a million cash, my own shit
And, yeah, you might've sold more, but you don't own shit
And I could've been killed your ass, but you ain't on shit
You and money over with, nigga, go'n and quit (Bitch)
Fuck a switch, nigga, aim and walk down
A shame they associate my name with y'all clowns
Can't even hang on your same side of town
If you see me, hope I leave with the same amount of rounds (Baow)
Twenty thou', I just made that out of town
OBJ catchin' plays, tryna stay from out of bounds
I know your money straight, but either way, I gotta count
Ever had a task force take a safe up out your house?
Askin' (Just me), so many faces on litigation
Some fucked-up situations, I wasn't patient
I could've got a sentence, still ain't give a statement
I pull up in that spaceship down in Makeship (What up, Cakes?)
My shit costs a hundred, how much they spent?
I smashed and she ain't charge me nothin', still might pay her rent (Uh)
I chased a nigga with a K and made him jump a fence
I watched church the other day, I might pray and go repent
I might look the other way, but ain't no way I can forget
So how the fuck I'm gon' forgive? Fuck 'em, let 'em live
Somebody'll probably tell, plus I got a kid
Streets already dead, I'm tryna adjust to how it is
Just want you to trust me and all this love I got to give
Need for you to believe in me like Cus D'Amato did
Baby mama cool, but she just cussed me out again
Whatever, I just gotta grin, 'cause we gotta win
I just need TLC, what about your friend?
Don't go chasin' waterfalls, lookin' for revenge
Whole summer '16, tryna make amends
Ever since, we been off and on, guess we ain't convinced
I sense discontent every time you vent
Always on defense, that's why it's so tense
I'm a king and I need a queen, let's just make a prince
Uh (Lito)
This my story, this my psalm, somethin' like blessed assurance
Uh
Ayy, Jermaine
Why don't you tell these niggas the truth?
Wanna tell my own story, don't want nobody to tell it for me
