HOLD Video (MV)

I treat my home like I'm on the road
A lot of 4s, lotta Os like I'm honor roll
I had to planet, now I'm on a roll
They can't stop it, like a play, they just wantin me to find a role
But this is some new life shit
No audition, I carved this shit
Yeah I slaved for it, I hustled for all this shit
A new season, but who touchin my August shit
Forreal
And I ain't talkin bout r&b singer
I swear this ain't no actin, but it's alsina
I see ya homies girls actin like they all single
But who can blame em, I might have to fly em all out to Santo Domingo
They call my number like they call bingo
I'm Malcolm X mixed wit al Pacino
Really wit a lesser ego
I'm a goodfella at heart
Sometimes you gotta f*ck the game up and Tony Montana the sequel
And I never seen the trap like the rest of them guys
But they seen less than me and rap like the cell is they lives
Bars over they head like they sellin' they lives
Tried to run me out my lane and got lapped from behind
This ain't a grudge tho
But this a scary movie game, like I'm Jason bitch I'm cutthroat
I never chase a bitch or love hoes
Ain't no one around me that could say I did any less than the upmost
How I go from unheard of to the next up?
I dedicated and I leveled up
You know that shit, hard work plus patience
I'm blessed wit a virtue, I don't work for today shit
My focus on tomorrow and the new generations
The shit these other rappers say is really that play shit
That I f*ck bitches, get money shit
That's why they all sound the same
I can't stay up on that play shit if I'm runnin the game
This take me back to when I'd wanna work at in n out
When I could go to the store and be in n out
Without the questions on my last shit or shit that's coming
Get upset if I don't answer like I owe them somethin
I can't be mad cause this the life I wanted
I drew the arrow, set my aim and I went hunting
Add a couple zeros, I mean more than 200
I need more than your fans, I can tell you who bluffin
Everybody nigga
It ain't the same when you see it from the inside
Like a morgue in here, smelllin like the dead died
But if you speak up on it you a dead guy
I just keep my head on straight and get to my bread like
I don't cause trouble, never been suspended
Never was at school enough to sit up in detention
Really on some nice guy shit, but I never paid attention
Too smart to stay up on my lessons
But I learned the game so I could teach you sum
Lesson one
Take one cold nigga plus a whack nigga, what's the lesser sum
Add 100 of em if you please, it's irrelevant
The answer still who toting lyrics like a loaded gun
Just a metaphor I loaded up
Came in spittin like I'm loaded lux, cold enough to slow it up
Ali in a different mode or some
And you gon see all em f*ck up like they switched the gears and blew the clutch

My niggas callin me, askin me what the top feel like
The same breath, they tellin me what the block still like
It's hot enough up in this bitch without a Glock
Still might, leave chopper holes in the oppers size of young chop bite
Since blacktops, been pitchin no backstop
Come f*ck wit the drip work, I'm painting the backdrop
I mean, my number still the same
Verses give me rental fame
Mental thoughts is ignorant
The memories I can't attain
Mastermind, 2 lil niggas like it's columbine
You can't imagine what it's like to run a mile in mine
Finer than a line
Crisp white, walk on borrowed time
They f*ckin up the wave, the 808, the sine is fine
Now they the see the attention, I see the lane switch
Anything today, I was poppin before I was famous
And now the shit I be talkin done made they brains sick
Never had to pitch it, I carry keys in my cadence
A to the L I, bitch I been alive
They tryna film my life, livin you just live a lie
Heal and you just live to die, bitch I don't feel it
It's me against the world and they can never shake my spirit
