Lyrics & Translation

[English]

Let me talk to 'em, yeah

I'm just tryna get my mind right

I did what I said I would, I got my mom right

I be squarin' up on doubt like it's on sight

The better part of me is tellin' me it's all right, yeah

I'm just tryna get my mind right

I did what I said I would, I got my mom right

I be squarin' up on doubt like it's on sight

The better part of me is tellin' me it's all right

Yeah

This is '06 motives with 2010 potions

I ain't have shit but my confidence and focus (Yeah)

Dice gang, I'm rollin' 'til I get seven

Givin' hell at 18, I'm smokin' 'til I reach heaven

Dropped out and the years that followed after

Could've made you think I should've stayed in school and finished

But 2016, became a multi-million rapper

Thank God I didn't live accordin' to y'all's vision

I never listened (Nah) to anything but my gut

From 50 dollars a week to 200,000 a month

This is off my fables, top-flight angels

My TuneCore is a top-five label

Before the fame and managerial figures

Stalkin' pictures on the wall like we were serial killers

Held the camera once or twice, and I edited too

When I speak, it's from experience of every shoe

Yeah

I'm just tryna get my mind right (Yeah)

I did what I said I would, I got my mom right

I be squarin' up on doubt like it's on sight

The better part of me is tellin' me it's all right, yeah

I'm just tryna get my mind right (Yeah)

I did what I said I would, I got my mom right

I be squarin' up on doubt like it's on sight

The better part of me is tellin' me it's all right, yeah

This is ten years, six careers mastered by one

Watch your tone when you talk to me, these rappers are bums

When it comes to what I'm doing, or rather how much

I am your whole team, you should respect me as such

'97 Nissans to McLarens with trunks

In the front, I might pull up on my high school crush

Tryna fuck, 'course she is, make her walk barefooted in my house

I get the mouth when she sees the square footage, uh

I'm just playin' my cards, you would play 'em if you had 'em

14, makin' beats, friends laughin' at me

Askin', "What you think, you gon' be famous or somethin'?"

But I landed where I'm at 'cause I was aimin' for something

Y'all were aiming for nothin', guess it's fuck you for life

Even back then, I felt like it was fuck your advice, damn

I been me, yes, all the above

Before the hate, before the love

Man, I always been Russ, yeah

I'm just tryna get my mind right

I did what I said I would, I got my mom right

I be squarin' up on doubt like it's on sight

The better part of me is tellin' me it's all right, yeah

I'm just tryna get my mind right

I did what I said I would, I got my mom right

I be squarin' up on doubt like it's on sight

The better part of me is tellin' me it's all right, yeah
