Yeah, yeah 00:02
Still in the basement 00:03
Just the basement's a little bit bigger now, huh 00:07
It's crazy 00:10
Yeah, let me talk to you 00:14
Yeah 00:22
I used to catch trains (Yeah), now it's planes flyin' 00:23
Now I'm really stayin', now my chain diamond 00:26
I used to count changes, now it's eight-figure deals 00:29
And I spent about a million on the wheels (Yeah) 00:32
I can't believe what I've achieved 00:34
I can't be damned, I need a minute 00:37
It's hittin' me way differently 00:40
This is a dream, I need a minute 00:43
Yeah 00:46
I'm havin' outer body moments in the town that got me 00:47
Heaven now, my house is godly 00:50
When they see me out, they stop me 00:51
Neighbors turn to paparazzi 00:53
Off the music pop-pop taught me 00:54
Pop-up tops they cop up probably 00:56
This is what hip hop just brought me 00:57
I'm thankful, I'm grateful, I'm countin' my blessings 00:59
I rebuke you, bitch, I'm pure 01:01
I'm changin' all of my sessions 01:03
This is copyright retention, this is ownership expression 01:04
This is roll a quarter-pound and play a beat and write a message 01:07
I used to catch trains (Yeah), now it's planes flyin' 01:10
Now I'm really stayin', now my chain diamond 01:13
I used to count changes, now it's eight-figure deals 01:16
And I spent about a million on the wheels (Yeah) 01:19
I can't believe what I've achieved 01:21
I can't be damned, I need a minute 01:25
It's hittin' me way differently 01:27
This is a dream, I need a minute 01:30
Yeah, in my Morrocan room 01:33
Fuckin' a Morrocan who 01:35
Probably wouldn't fuck if I was stuck still stockin' shoes 01:37
Oh what a life, after show, arena, meet-ups 01:40
Overseas, Germany, rappers gettin' beat up 01:42
Fly to the next on the jet, got my feet up 01:45
If you had a check, you would flex, you would be Russ 01:48
Rap game Jesus, stamped up, Visas 01:51
My house is a club, called, Liquor and Latinas 01:54
I used to catch trains (Yeah), now it's planes flyin' 01:57
Now I'm really stayin', now my chain diamond 02:00
I used to count changes, now it's eight-figure deals 02:02

[English]
Yeah, yeah
Still in the basement
Just the basement's a little bit bigger now, huh
It's crazy
Yeah, let me talk to you
Yeah
I used to catch trains (Yeah), now it's planes flyin'
Now I'm really stayin', now my chain diamond
I used to count changes, now it's eight-figure deals
And I spent about a million on the wheels (Yeah)
I can't believe what I've achieved
I can't be damned, I need a minute
It's hittin' me way differently
This is a dream, I need a minute
Yeah
I'm havin' outer body moments in the town that got me
Heaven now, my house is godly
When they see me out, they stop me
Neighbors turn to paparazzi
Off the music pop-pop taught me
Pop-up tops they cop up probably
This is what hip hop just brought me
I'm thankful, I'm grateful, I'm countin' my blessings
I rebuke you, bitch, I'm pure
I'm changin' all of my sessions
This is copyright retention, this is ownership expression
This is roll a quarter-pound and play a beat and write a message
I used to catch trains (Yeah), now it's planes flyin'
Now I'm really stayin', now my chain diamond
I used to count changes, now it's eight-figure deals
And I spent about a million on the wheels (Yeah)
I can't believe what I've achieved
I can't be damned, I need a minute
It's hittin' me way differently
This is a dream, I need a minute
Yeah, in my Morrocan room
Fuckin' a Morrocan who
Probably wouldn't fuck if I was stuck still stockin' shoes
Oh what a life, after show, arena, meet-ups
Overseas, Germany, rappers gettin' beat up
Fly to the next on the jet, got my feet up
If you had a check, you would flex, you would be Russ
Rap game Jesus, stamped up, Visas
My house is a club, called, Liquor and Latinas
I used to catch trains (Yeah), now it's planes flyin'
Now I'm really stayin', now my chain diamond
I used to count changes, now it's eight-figure deals
And I spent about a million on the wheels (Yeah)
I can't believe what I've achieved
I can't be damned, I need a minute
It's hittin' me way differently
This is a dream, I need a minute (Yeah)
