Phases
(G.Ry Got Me)
I just been goin' through these phases (Hit-Boy)
It's 4AM in Atlanta, I'm headin' to a different time zone (in my zone)
Thinkin' how my life changed overnight, it got my mind gone
Too real for me to hide it long, start trippin' when I ride alone (solo)
Like a traffic guard, you in these streets, you gotta know what side you on
I grew up off 81st, dodged the hearse but the streets made me (Chi-Town)
Lost some friends from death, and then a life, this shit crazy (it is)
It's some niggas who ain't even met my mama, that think they made me (what?)
But we all goin' through phases, I just can't let that shit phase me
Lately, I been talkin' to God daily, prayin' He might save me
Seen my dawg sneak dissin' on the 'Gram, I'm like, "It can't be"
Never thought my bitch'll switch up on me, 'cause she ain't me
Quick to speak down on my name but quiet when it's time to thank me
Me ridin' with no assurance, like ridin' with no insurance (skrrt)
But I gotta make 'em pay, just talk to me like Securus (pay up)
Treat the code like it's law, if you break it, I'm like the jurors
Even though my past a little dirty, my heart still one of the purest
I'm still tryna win for my mama 'nem, if she feelin' weak then I fake strong
Big Dreez, but I'm Lil' Drea when I'm at the crib in my safe zone
Need a five-star life, jet trips, gang eatin' down to the steak bone
Coulda sold out for a bankroll but I knew it wasn't gon' take long (Big Dreez)
It's 4AM in Atlanta, I'm headin' to a different time zone

But we all goin' through phases, I just can't let that shit phase me
I'm in a black truck, two middle fingers up
I feel like Tupac, been backed up
Everybody 'round me keep tellin' me cool out, had to stack up
Got at least a hunnid stuffed inside a shoebox
And I ain't goin' hard enough if I don't wake up to a new opp (I ain't)
My pops the realest nigga I know, I think this shit was genetic (yeah)
Buy you a chain, I gotta know that you forever indebted (one hunnid)
Rather be respected, fuck if I don't fit the aesthetic
I been runnin' this shit, I couldn't fake it with a prosthetic
They said the price was high so I raised it (raised it)
Stayed down, patient like it was a waitlist (waitlist)
Best friend hit my phone up say I'm changin'
I just been goin' through these phases
It's 4AM in Atlanta, I'm headin' to a different time zone (in my zone)
Thinkin' how my life changed overnight, it got my mind gone
