Siento aquí tu presencia
La noche de anoche
Y nos ponemos a llorar
[Verse 1]
Yesterday, somebody whacked out my mural
That energy'll make you niggas move to Europe
But it's regular for me, yeah, that's for sure
The love and hate is definite without a cure
All this talk is b***h-made, that's on my Lord
I'll kill 'em all before I let 'em kill my joy
I done been through it all, what you endure?
It used to be **** that nigga, but now it's plural
**** everybody, that's on my body
My blick first, then God got me
I watch 'em pander with them back-handed compliments
Put they head on a Cuban link as a monument
I paid homage and I always mind my business
I made the—
I never lost who I am for a rap image
It's motivation if you wonder how I did it
[Chorus]
Yeah, n***a, go and up your rank
Know you a god even when they say you ain't
Yeah, n***a, keep your feelings out the way
N***r let no one put smut up on your name
Yeah, n***a, keep your head down and work like I do
But understand everybody ain't gon' like you
Yeah, n***a, if they say it's love, you've been lied to
A couple rules of engagements, I'ma guide you
[Post-Chorus: Deyra Barrera]
Que reflejan tu mirada
La noche, tú y yo
[Verse 2]
Ridin' in my GNX with Anita Baker in the tape deck, it's gon' be a sweet love
**** apologies, I wanna see y'all geeked up
Don't acknowledge me, then maybe we can say it's fair
Take it to the internet and I'ma take it there
Miss my uncle Lil' Mane, he said that he would kill me if I didn't make it
Now I'm possessed by a spirit and they can't take it
Used to bump Tha Carter III, I held my Rollie chain proud
Irony, I think my hard work let Lil Wayne down
Whatever, though, call me crazy, everybody questionable
Turn me to an eskimo, I drew the line and decimals
Snoop posted "Taylor Made," I prayed it was the edibles
I couldn't believe it, it was only right for me to let it go
Won the Super Bowl and Nas the only one congratulate me
All these niggas agitated, I'm just glad they showin' they faces
Quite frankly, plenty artists, but they outdated
Old-ass flows, tryna convince me that you they favorite
This is not for lyricists, I swear it's not the sentiments
**** a double entendre, I want y'all to feel this shit
Old soul, b***h, I probably built them pyramids
Ducking strays when I rap battled in the Nickersons
Where you from? Not where I'm from, we all indigenous
Against all odds, I squabbled up for them dividends
Against all odds, I showed up as a gentleman
I done lost plenty friends, sixteen to be specific
Put that on my kids' children, we gon' see the future first
They like, "Dot big trippin," I just want what I deserve
What bridge they done burnt? All of them, it's over with
I'm doin' what COVID did, they'll never get over it
[Chorus]
Yeah, n***a, go and up your rank
Know you a god even when they say you ain't
Yeah, n***a, keep your feelings out the way
N***r let no one put smut up on your name
Yeah, n***a, keep your head down and work like I do
But understand everybody ain't gon' like you
Yeah, n***a, if they say it's love, you've been lied to
A couple rules of engagements, here to guide you
[Verse 3]
N****s from my city couldn't entertain old boy
Promisin' bank transactions and even bitcoin
I never peaced it up, that shit don't sit well with me
Before I take a truce, I'll take 'em to Hell with me
If that money got in the hands of a crash dummy
Could jeopardize my family and burden the ones who love me
N****s mad 'cause I decided not to pretend
Y'all stay politically correct, I'ma do what I did
Ain't no sympathy here, this shit's hilarious
It's a lot of opinions, but no power to carry it
2025, they still movin' on some scary shit
Tell 'em quit they job and pay the real niggas they severance
Don't insult my intelligence, I'm not just for the television
Teleport to Bullets Road and dig up all my relatives
Okay, n***a, let's settle it, these n****s been fake loyal
Since y'all pandering to choose a side, let me do it for you
Okay, **** your hip-hop, I watched the party just die
N****s cackling about— while all of y'all is on trial
N****s thought that I was antisocial when I stayed inside of my house
You better off to have one woman, everything tricky right now
You niggas live in denial
Ayy, **** anybody empathetic to the other side, I vow
A b***h n***a love b***h n****s, they exist with 'em in style
Exterminate 'em right now
Make Katt Williams and them proud, the t***h 'bout to get loud
No juice iniside of my cup, I sober up and knock 'em all off
Don't let no white comedian talk about no Black woman, that's law
I know propaganda work for them, and **** whoever that's close to them
The niggas that coon, the niggas that bein' groomed, slide on both of then
You either ate Cap'n Crunch and proceeded to pour water in it?
Pulled over by the law, you ridin' dirty, so you can't argue with 'em
Then make it to be a star, bare your soul and put your heart up in it
Well I did
Whacked the murals out, but it ain't no legends if my legend ends
