[English]

Let it go, let it go, homie

You know we can see through them blinds, homie

And see through the truth and them lies, homie

Just let it go, let it go, let it go

Uh

All niggas know what the fuck it is, man

Young Khalifa, man, hahahahaha

Uh

I done stayed on top of my game, gained control of my lane

Paid so much for my frames, put these lil' niggas to shame

Ordered so many of them bottles, so many of them bottles

You'd think I'm insane

Already changed the game once, I done told you but now I'ma do it

And now I'ma do it again

Tell the club owners we need more sections

I made these lil' niggas go cop they Rolexes

You get the venue, you gon' need more bouncers

And tell the weed man we gon' need more ounces

Hundred grand in a rubber band

Used to be the kid, now homie, I'm the man

Hundred grand in a rubber band

Used to be the kid, now homie, I'm the man (tahahahahaha)

Let it go, let it go, homie

You know we can see through them blinds, homie

And see through the truth and them lies, homie

Just let it go, let it go, let it go

Let it go, let it go, homie

You know they can't see what we see, homie

Difference from the real and make believe, homie

So let it go, let it go, let it go

Living my life about peace

Sharing this money and tryna get all my niggas

Up off of them streets

Used to look up to some niggas

But now it seem that it all come down to me

Make sure my family gon' eat

Grinding from up underneath

Now they just say I'm a, now they just say I'm a beast

And now all these haters looking at me pitifully

'Cause I'm the shit, literally

And I be stuntin' when I ride past my old school

I say fuck the new car, I cop the old school (hahahahaha)

Let it go, let it go, homie

You know we can see through them blinds, homie

And see through the truth and them lies, homie

Just let it go, let it go, let it go

Let it go, let it go, homie

You know they can't see what we see, homie

Difference from the real and make believe, homie

So let it go, let it go, let it go

Let it go, let it go, let it go

So let them go, let them go, let them go

Let them know, let them know, let them know

This time I feel like it's now or never

Ain't going nowhere, so no matter what they say

I'll be here forever

Even though some folks will make it so you can't win

Don't need to take it on the chin

Remember homie, you ain't even gotta hold it in

Let it go, let it go, homie

You know we can see through them blinds, homie

And see through the truth and them lies, homie

Just let it go, let it go, let it go

Let it go, let it go, homie

You know they can't see what we see, homie

Difference from the real and make believe, homie

So let it go, let it go, let it go

Let it go, let it go, let it go

So let them go, let them go, let them go

Let them know, let them know, let them know

O.N.I.F.C
