Progression
Turn my headphones up Rich
Smooth
The top look so far when you trynna make it from the bottom
When times had got hard I told my niggas I got em
I had to sharpen my vision Stop chasing bitches
Cut off who really wasn't with me
Shoeboxes stuffed with a ticket Stacking money was the only decision
Using FEDEX just to clear me a play
Cut the hoe off told her give me some space
Cutting up boxes I felt like a slave
I can't be settling for minimum wage
And my resume is respected
Can't trust n****s I learnt my lesson
I'm grown now I can't be no yes man
It's all about yo progression yea
I was the one sitting in the back when they'll talk I would just listen
Fresh off the woods facing back to back then I went to go get me some chicken
Who ever thought they was against me
When you saw my grandmama kitchen
The shit n****s do just to fit in
The streets then go so ridiculous
From nothin to something made me a pot
Came a long way from a green dot
Almost started getting extorted from my pops
That knot got hard to hide
Really from the streets but I played it smart
Shorty stay around cus she play her part
But I ain't a clown she can't have my heart cus I kno she ain't down to ride
N I'm unfamiliar with these niggas started rapping
And they think that gave them room to fit the picture (how)
Get the fuck up out my face
N I still can't believe Zay
How you take it this far when they passed around my phone on holidays
The top look so far when you trynna make it from the bottom
When times had got hard I told my n****s I got em
I had to sharpen my vision Stop chasing bitches
Cut off who really wasn't with me
Shoeboxes stuffed with a ticket Stacking money was the only decision
Using FEDEX just to clear me a play
Cut the hoe off told her give me some space
Cutting up boxes I felt like a slave
I can't be settling for minimum wage
And my resume is respected
Can't trust n****s I learnt my lesson
I'm grown now I can't be no yes man
It's all about yo progression yea
Nowadays the streets filled with 6'9s undercover
Everyday I'm praying for my brother
Snooks 100 grand man he kno I love em
Keep a rubber band to control the bundle
Really been the man but I kept it humble
Came up with a plan then I came from under
Momma steady praying to see better summers
If you really know me I'm about my cheese young n***a always kept a knot
Anti police had to stay discrete use to clean the barber shop
Securus calls and western union fees I try to keep up through the weeks
And these n****s wasn't out here with me feel like I'm cursed with loyalty
And with this rapping I'm just trynna show ya how I'm living
N the lord with me cus everyday I commit a sin
Make a play he kno my intentions for us is just to win
Bought a safe to invest don't really care too much about a benz
The top look so far when you trynna make it from the bottom
When times had got hard I told my n****s I got em
I had to sharpen my vision Stop chasing bitches
Cut off who really wasn't with me
Shoeboxes stuffed with a ticket Stacking money was the only decision (nonfiction)
Using FEDEX just to clear me a play
Cut the hoe off told her give me some space
Cutting up boxes I felt like a slave
I can't be settling for minimum wage
And my resume is respected
Can't trust n****s I learnt my lesson
I'm grown now I can't be no yes man
It's all about yo progression yea
