Foundation

Back in this shit
(Hit-Boy)

Look
First you got to pay dues
Then you got to make moves
And you know the game test you
You just gotta stay true
First they probably like who?
Then you finally break through
You ain't gotta play cool
You just gotta make room
I been on a lot a missions (I)
I caught a lot of cases (I)
Took me a lot of time (I)
But I built a foundation (I)
I built a foundation (I)
I built a foundation (I)
Took me a little time (I)
But I built a foundation

I'ma bet on myself
I ain't never had to sit on the shelf
I'm creating generational wealth
Took a loss, but got wins on a belt
We was hungry, they don't know how it felt
I want for my brothers what I want for myself
Success and the foundation
Nothing happened overnight
A lot of sleeping on the floor
Long nights in the yo
Taking risk for the dough
Live and die by the code
Shoot it out by the store
Loyalty to the bros
Emancipated from the stove
Graduated on the road
I got in album mode
Sacrifice for the goals
Nigga, anything goes
Was only known in the hood
Now I'm known around the globe
Fake friends got exposed
Still stayed down ten toes
I had to build a foundation
All it took was dedication
Off parole, on probation
I caught a lot of cases
But I built a foundation
I ran out of patience
It took me a little time
But I built a foundation

Look
First you got to pay dues
Then you got to make moves
And you know the game test you
You just gotta stay true
First they probably like who?
Then you finally break through
You ain't gotta play cool
You just gotta make room
I been on a lot a missions (I)
I caught a lot of cases (I)
Took me a lot of time (I)
But I built a foundation (I)
I built a foundation (I)
I built a foundation (I)
Took me a little time (I)
But I built a foundation

I'm in a coupe going fast
Yeah, I do the whole dash
I got a bitch with some ass
She got Chanel on her back
Yeah, I came up too fast
Nigga, how you do that?
Nigga, grindin' the crack
Nigga, stashing the pack
Nigga re-up the sack
Rob up the strap
Put the hood on the map
From the fronts to the back
Yeah, my trap be rolling
If the light on, I'm open
I be cooking the yola
I got rich on the corner
I got rich on the corner
A young nigga be on it
I be smoking, they on it
I be fresh in the morning
Bitches be calling
Calling and calling
They know that I'm ballin'
What

First you got to pay dues (yeah)
Then you got to make moves (on Hood)
And you know the game test you (come on)
You just gotta stay true (what else?)
First they probably like who? (What else?)
Then you finally break through (yeah)
You ain't gotta play cool (let's go)
You just gotta make room (let's go)
I been on a lot a missions (I)
I caught a lot of cases (I) (yeah)
Took me a lot of time (I)
But I built a foundation (I) (come on)
I built a foundation (I)
I built a foundation (I, foundation)
Took me a little time (I)
But I built a foundation
