All in the flick of the wrist Waiting for homies to share Know that we're better than this Sending it up like a prayer Look at them flick through the pics Seems like they don't even care Act like it doesn't exist Act like they wasn't aware Don't wanna run anymore But they wanna run into me They're running from something now huh On camera we finally saw A view that was hidden beneath yeah Sparked something huh Yeah Oh Yeah They send their regards But only in frame Yeah The house and the cars You post with no shame now Yeah The rooftop With the backdrop And the pool spot Was a view I knew would make the front page All in the flick of the wrist Waiting for homies to share Know that we're better than this Sending it up like a prayer Look at them flick through the pics Seems like they don't even care Act like it doesn't exist Act like they wasn't aware Don't blame the camera Don't blame the camera Cuz if they're scared of us They gonna mishandle her Ain't no preparing us This ain't a photo op That's a distraction cuz This shit is very rare This shit is very scary Feed the homeless with a millionaire Care for a millisecond Send the picture out to millions This is military militance This is hashtag evidence This is not your mother's Instagram This is like Deliverance Deliverance Like, this is like Like Leibovitz I get the pic I see the light I fill it in We understand We saw it all We saw it all All in the flick of the wrist Waiting for homies to share Know that we're better than this Sending it up like a prayer Look at them flick through the pics Seems like they don't even care Act like it doesn't exist Act like they wasn't aware

Back in the day I used to Vibe with the friends get looser Got so reckless ruthless Do anything we want That's my domain I rule that Pop champagne please cool that And right away I knew that Might be something wrong Niggas can't ball like me I'm doing my thing I sink my teeth in, huh RIP my demons Told my team find me I'm leaving Talib Kweli we need him Who be the voice of reason? Sometimes I think we be tweaking But this time I'll let it Slide, with the fellas with me Ride with it We so high on some million dollar Nonsense Felt a slight hesitation but we Can admire Getting high cuz the feeling is so Modern We gonna slide, dip (Yeah we gonna) Slide, Dip (You got it) Slide, Dip (Yeah we gonna) Slide, Dip (You got it) Slide over here, uh yeah With the villains All right, uh yeah Been the nigga, from Virginia It's a climb, oh my god, oh my god Dog we different I'm at odds with the mission but I smile seeming with it You ain't ride You ain't ride with the villians You ain't died with them huh You ain't kind to they feelings You ain't ride with them, uh Who am I to tell em different I'm inside with the, uh I'm inside, know the difference I'm alive I'm alive and some wishing that I wasn't So I'm right here with my cousins and we ripping through the night Think of mothers grieving when I see my brothers heaving, Caring for each other, think I shouldn't let it Slide, with the fellas with me Ride with it We so high on some million dollar Nonsense Felt a slight hesitation but we Can admire Getting high cuz the feeling is so Modern We gonna slide, dip (Yeah we gonna) Slide, Dip (You got it) Slide, Dip (Yeah we gonna) Slide, Dip (You got it)

Black ford sedan Four Doors to slam I pulled up at 10 While the crowd was thin Tryna make a friend But not blending in Nikes and timbs Don't match with khaki pants They ask me for xans They say can’t you dance Feeling pressed again Wish to undress my skin Aint no accident We grow up and start slashing and cashing in Aint no questioning, aint none faster than Aint no dancing to pretend you like rap again It’s not evident, I’m a perceptive man I Atlantis swim Hey nigga pass the gin I’m a phantom champ, cool as Potassium A pedestrian, act like a thespian What a mess we in, look how the feds see him In this wretched skin, mirror I catch a glimpse Actually (You in love with me) Has to be (You in love with me) Ask for me (You in love with me) That's blasphemy (You in love with me) Actually (You in love with me) Has to be (You in love with me) Ask for me (You in love with me) That's blasphemy (You in love with me) Passionately Self-deceptively Useful evidently It’s a permanent thing Feeling seventeen Fiending seriously Hitting differently Y'all depending on me Now I'm running on E Way unplanned and unseen Why they filming low key Why they slandering me Now I’m rolling on E Give my driver my keys No more hindering me No dick riding for free Oh oh ah ah, nigga run Passionately Self-deceptively Useful evidently It’s a permanent thing Feeling seventeen Fiending seriously Hitting differently Y'all depending on me Now I'm running on E Way unplanned and unseen Why they filming low key Why they slandering me Actually (You in love with me) Has to be (You in love with me) Ask for me (You in love with me) That's blasphemy (You in love with me) Actually (You in love with me) Has to be (You in love with me) Ask for me (You in love with me) That's blasphemy (You in love with me)

When I feel like giving up on all this drama Then I realize that the process made me stronger I know Boy this high rise feel so low Boy these high nights feel so long So holla, sold me for some dollars Think I might focus on getting my life right Minimize all of the forward and hindsight Shine through the darkness I put in a night light Deep in your iris improving your eyesight Nice try Tell me if you're down for a night ride Had to get around in the nighttime I had a tough time Showed me my worst side That was too much Came to bring more fire Can't let the torch die That's what they want Now we all can admit what it was Ain't take long for our eyes to adjust Any change gotta happen with us Understand Think I might focus on getting my life right Minimize all of the forward and hindsight Shine through the darkness I put in a night light Deep in your iris improving your eyesight It's I, oh that's I, that's I When I feel like giving up on all this drama Then I realize that the process made me stronger I know Boy this high rise feel so low Boy these high nights feel so long So holla, sold me for some dollars Counting on myself to do right, counting on myself to do Counting on myself to do right, counting on myself to do Counting on myself to do right, counting on myself to do Counting on myself to do right
