the Younger - Pop Icon Lyrics

Back before
I was on
Any of y'all minds
And don't say that I was cause that's a f*cking lie
I was in my stew
Yeah I was grinding
Cooking up some shit
That was tantalizing
I was fantasizing
Bout the finer things
Not the Prada jeans
Not the Gucci bags
Popped up on the scene like "Ta-Dow"
Y'all about to see what I'm about
You gonna see what I'm about
Yeah you gonna see what I'm about
About

And I
Yeah I gotta get high
Just to sleep through the night
Just to sleep through the night
And I
Yeah I gotta get high
Just to sleep through the night
Just to sleep through the night
Yeah you know I get high
Yeah I got high
Just to sleep through the night
Just to sleep through the night

So you say you want to real me
You wanna feel me
No you don't
You don't got the antidote
So you say you want to feel me
You want the real me
No you don't
Swear you got the answer though

Back when you didn't know
When I knew I had to grow
Back before I had the glow
Knew I had to move slow
All you hoes wanted more
I played opposite an average Joe
I don't f*ck with them plain Janes
Then I'm up up in the stu
Then you wanna know what I do
Work the best like a yo yo
Then I grew out my fro
Let the shit lock
Earned my bars
Let em know I'm headed to the top
All your hit shit don't hit
You hit rocks
I ball like rock when I do it
I'm off top your girl gave me sloppy top last week
Love the chick when she do it
Sucked me off til knees weak
Then I went and made this beat
Smoking on that strong weed
Every time time I do it, it makes sure I live in the night
Guess that's why I get high
It's insurance on my life
That's how I got by
And it's fly
And I'm fine
So get off of mine
Imma stay on my grind
And I'll be fine
Yeah it's all fine
Just know that soon I'll be the greatest
And you'll be happy that I made it

And I
Yeah I gotta get high
Just to sleep through the night
Just to sleep through the night
And I
Yeah I gotta get high
Just to sleep through the night
Just to sleep through the night
Yeah you know I get high
Yeah I got high
Just to sleep through the night
Just to sleep through the night
