Lyrics & Translation

[English]

Shit, I was just talking 'bout

Just, that grind, the trenches, just

You know what I'm sayin', just all that

I mean, you-you don't get the vibe of it?

Feels good to get this shit out the mud, nigga

Made it from hard times, it's still love for the slums, nigga

We rob niggas just because, nigga

And I'll serve you anything, but nothin' less than a dub, nigga

And how it feel to be a dub, nigga?

I'm tryna be a better man but nothin' less than a thug, nigga

I kill shit, just check my background (bah)

This murder gang shit my campground

Check my résumé or ask 'round (yeah)

We just simply never back down (nah)

I caught a charge, now I'm back out

I bet this carbon blow his back out

Gettin' money, that's a fact now (Merlyn)

Bitches, they don't know how to act now (Merlyn)

The poor more polite, but the flow not nice (no)

Watch for your wife, I might take her out your life (you know)

She wet my white tee, now it's like a wet wipe (wet it)

Respect my Tribe, I'm a dog like Phife (get it?)

You love me like a check, but my name not Nike (get it?)

Bitch, my number not a lottery

I'm like, "Don't even talk to me" (stop)

Honestly, wouldn't fly a Melbourne chick to Sydney, no (go Merlyn, go Merlyn)

All of these bars bought chains

Prison industries (go Merlyn, go Merlyn, go Merlyn)

True, America did my people foul

Then give me shot for free (go Merlyn, go Merlyn)

While I watch Washington's wooden teeth in her booty cheeks

Kings of last century, was living like peasantry

I don't even like sleep, time is the only luxury

Sendin' a fuck you to you all

I'ma ship it, laminate it, got this shit straight off the lot

We ain't renting no AVIS

Got the neighbors going crazy

It's me, Bari, and Flexy

I can see through your bullshit, like your face was made of plexi' (haha)

I could fuck around and get to soundin' like I'm whinin' man

Only crybaby is the one inside the buggy, man

You, I'm the bogeyman

You, never sleep again

Nightmares, it's fright-filled the moment Freddy tuck you in

Stack my money higher than the foam atop a tidal wave

Lonely like the point guard at the key, got the isolate

Light it up, light it up, we bring the light show

Who the hell invited all they friends?

Fuck if I know (yeah, yeah, yeah)

They at your window (them boy calling for you)

They at your window (them boy coming for you)

They at your window (you better not tell no lies)

They at your window (you know them boys outside)

They at your window (them boy calling for you)

They at your window (them boy coming for you)

They at your window (you better not tell no lies)

And they ain't coming to play

You should not tell no lies

My pen could be a fortune teller or an ATM

It's got intentions of its own, I can't even pretend

Every moment is a fight nobody can defend

The circumstances should've never been there to begin

I watch the clocks melt as the Devil dances

The chances are slim to none that you could understand this

Lost language we incantin', pain campin'

Amongst the stillborn raindrops is where I'm standin'

I wake up breakin' up an eighth just to function

Rather be in neutral than continue to get sunken

All my niggas made it out the motherfuckin' dungeon

Tank has been on E, but I gotta keep runnin'

What you finna lean on when our system is crumbling?

Everybody's reaching but they really end up fumbling when they touchdown

Y'all don't appreciate in value like a bust down

My shit authentic, they can never get enough now

They at your window (them boy calling for you)

They at your window (them boy coming for you)

They at your window (you better not tell no lies)

And they ain't coming to play

You should not tell no lies

I can see the eye upon me when I close mine

Drug-induced comatosis leaking through me blind

The body is the temple, I invite spirits

We crack riddles and giggle behind closed blinds

Born to bleed, the brave and free

Got needs they gots to feed, I breathe to see defeat

Fuck police and authority

Never means nothing, mind-fucking myself to sleep

Had to take it to the streets

Capitalistic greed plague all society like COVID-19

Those dirty hands that feed don't buy it

Government officials, don't give a fuck about the children

What do you believe?

Nothing's ever what it seems 'til you can't deny it

Flashpoints and flashbangs dictate defiance

History stuck on repeat in the loop of sirens

Terrorizing, always lying

Goddamn tyrants

Don't play with knives, kid

I tried to warn you

These boys, they don't know you

Outside, comin' for you

'Cause they don't love you and they don't know you

I tried to warn you

These boys, they don't know you

Outside, comin' for you

'Cause they don't love you and they don't owe you shit

Fuck the world and all that inhabit it

Fuck the world and all that inhabit it

Sometimes it's like

Fuck the world and all that inhabit it

Yeah, nigga

We back up in this thing (road)

Sometimes it's like, all or nothin' (road)

Fuck the world and all that inhabit it

Sometimes it's like

Fuck the world and all that inhabit it

Sometimes it's like

Just pick me up in the four-door

I'll bless the beat with smoke and rain ash like Mordor

The warlord's comin', check the lamb for the slaughter

The envy so green it should be flying a saucer, yeah

And when the pressure is on, they gone

Ghost ride whippin' not your friends no more, so long

Snake sneakin' I'm feeling like I'm missin'

But never that I'm still here bitch, so God's winnin'

Lord willing (Lord willing)

There's no ceiling (no ceiling)

They all pussy (all pussy)

Get out your feelings (get out your feelings)

Can try and run it up but baby I'm chillin' (uh-huh)

I make my money, then dip, stay killin'

Stay killin', stay killin', stay killin'

Why you always start prayin' when that trouble come around?

(Why you always start prayin' when that trouble come around?)

There them boys go again

The Roadrunner
