They say that grass don’t grow in the shade
But they never met me
Say my style ain’t got no lane
So they slept on me
She asked me what changed
I told her everything but my name
She know I’m strange
No name brand I ain’t rocking no chains
Six bad ones all want sex
Yeah and they all gonna text
My new girl getting them Netflix checks
That ain’t no flex boy they know I got next
All day
They say that grass don’t grow in the shade
But they never met me
Say my style ain’t got no lane
So they slept on me
Now everyone I know that got a little change
Place bets on me
On me, place bets on me
Now they wanna place bets on me
On me, I remember when they slept on me
Now everyone I know place bets on me
On me, now I guess they see, they see
Now they wanna place bets on me
Now everyone I know place bets on me
I remember when they slept on me
She asked me what’s good yeah
Buc city I’m repping my hood
Blew up like they knew I would
Still came back and rebuilt from a flood
Yeah I came back and I took a flag down
Brave heart bitch I don’t ever back down
My enemies aim straight for the crown
And they wonder why they plans don’t ever pan out
She want me so she gonna act out
She wanna start a fight till I pull a strap out
Pull a strap out they I blow her back out
Make her come ten times, then she pass out
She count sheep, I can’t sleep
Quarter million deal on deck next week
Threats on my head for the shit that I speak
With a vest on my chest this sht ain’t for the weak, lil boy!
They say that grass don’t grow in the shade
But they never met me
Say my style ain’t got no lane
So they slept on me
Now everyone I know that got a little change
Place bets on me
On me, place bets on me
Now they wanna place bets on me
On me, I remember when they slept on me
Now everyone I know place bets on me
On me, now I guess they see, they see
Now they wanna place bets on me
Now everyone I know place bets on me
I remember when they slept on me
She asked me what’s next
You just gonna have to wait and see baby
Yeah
