What do many mini-markets
Really represent
On Pennsylvania Avenue
Are these places
That harbor drug dealers
You know... uhh
Because you'll go inside
Some of them
And there's
Three or four people
Standing in the store
All the time
Well if you have one mini-market
On the block
Is there a need for three
You know
Is there a need for...
I mean what are we selling
Fritos and... and soda
You know
What impact
Does that really have on the community
(Yeah Yeah Yeah)
(Problems I can't avoid)
All of my problems I can't ignore
All of this envy I can't avoid
Picture me balling
I'm dripping in vintage
My fit like it's fresh outta of a Polaroid
I had a lot but I needed more
If we gotta eat then we taking yours
Came from the bottom
My n***a
We used to be posted
In front of that corner store
All of my problems I can't ignore
All of this envy I can't avoid
Picture me balling
I'm dripping in vintage
My fit like it's fresh outta of a Polaroid
I had a lot but I needed more
If we gotta eat then we taking yours
Came from the bottom
My n***a
We used to be posted
In front of that corner store
Yeah Yeah
First verse
Go in
Broke boys can't be my friends
I
Talk while we ball
First Take Stephen A., Kellerman
I
First off dont talk unless it's bout my ends
I
Baby talk to me nice
I might let you bring a friend
I
In the end
We wild as seminoles
My heart reside with my residuals
She got power in them jeans
For me
They dead their ex men like sentinels
Magic act
Where the ceiling go
Heart attack
How I beat it love
I'm league ready
You better off in school
Chip Kelly what it is cuz
My n***a played corners til late
Barely had food on his plate
Ducking and dodging the jakes
Leveled up from the beefing
Cause we was out raising the stakes
But
God don't make accidents
So let me hit it from the back again
So dope they think I'm trafficking
You in the presence of a champion
I got everything to lose
I got everything to prove
Giving in I refuse
Couple hundred for the shoes
$lick Flair break the rules
I
Bitch bomb screaming mayday
I want everyday to be payday
F*ck n***a dare nay say
No DJ that kayslay
Like
All of my problems I can't ignore
All of this envy I can't avoid
Picture me balling
I'm dripping in vintage
My fit like it's fresh outta of a Polaroid
I had a lot but I needed more
If we gotta eat then we taking yours

Yeah Yeah
They used to trap
Out front of them corner stores
Ain't have a thing
So they wanted yours
They ain't even have a sales pitch
Just lines in they pants like corduroys
Tolerate no disrespect
You get the jawing
Then you rendezvous with the teck
Never conversed with the jakes
I wanted music
That's something that they could respect
Everything I witnessed
Never made eye witness
Young n****s
Just tryna get it
Outside with it
Posted up right on the block
Just like Kareem with the rock
Sharpshooters right on the corner
They let it fly you getting boxed
Every summer I had a new boo thang
Stepping all on my shoe strings
Remember me and Lamell
Was throwing hands with n****s
Over my Flu Games
They see me now like you changed
I tell em back like hell yeah
Never forget where I came from
Be grateful that you never been there
All of my problems I can't avoid
They started making me paranoid
Won't roll the dice
And pay with my life
That there's a price that I can't afford
Just wanna ball like I'm Paul George
Me and the gang on one accord
Came from the bottom
My n***a
