18K Lyrics

[Hook: Con]
I came out the trenches
I got all this money from pimping these bitches
I sometimes slur on my words
Yes sir, I'm smoking but look, just get this
I gotta survive, physically or mentally
So if you vibing to this sound just get high and lift with me
Yeah
Just get high and lift with me
I like these chains and these watches and these shoes, they get to me
Yeah
Just get high and lift with me
I ride around with my niggas listening to a CD
Yeah
I gotta stay high, I gotta survive
I gotta survive, I gotta stay high
I gotta survive, I gotta stay high
I gotta stay high, I gotta survive

[Verse 1: Danté Wolfe]
A drug dealer destiny?
Probably reaching a Benz
The first thing I ever wanted was a watch like my friends
I mean it, when Bo first got his we couldn't believe it
My nigga's really hustle out here, dog, they mean it
That was 'fore I started hustling, I'm sideline Cole
I'm tryna get up in the game with all these niggas I know
See it was Summit Street and Montclair
You had to make a stop there
Carlton Ave. was never popping, nigga, 'fore we got there
Legendary, man, y'all niggas hella scary symbolic
On any campus, like a pair of Sperry's it's necessary
That a nigga picked the torch up
We moving, right off campus
And after that we had to get to it
Tina don't give a f*ck about why yo rent late
Them bills still gotta get paid
And everybody else is still in his face
See I remember when I had no luck to cook up
My nigga with the gold watch, he always had the hook up

[Hook: Con]
I came out the trenches
I got all this money from pimping these bitches
I sometimes slur on my words
Yes sir, I'm smoking but look, just get this
I gotta survive, physically or mentally
So if you vibing to this sound just get high and lift with me
Yeah
Just get high and lift with me
I like these chains and these watches and these shoes, they get to me
Yeah
Just get high and lift with me
I ride around with my niggas listening to a CD
Yeah

[Verse 2: Danté Wolfe]
So now we a year into Carlton
Medication for all of them
The superfriends, the clique
Aquaman provided all of them
Names are a need to know
All these pounds yeah they need to go It's okay if you don't smoke
We got shit you don't roll
So when you supply the crew
And everything come back to you
You might see a stack or two
This the way that my niggas move
I came down to Nyce room and that shit was shining
Big face with the bezel and it came from grinding
Now that's two out of three and the only one left is me
And you know I'mma keep it G, see this the part where they flee
Or this the part where they hate on the niggas that's on they team
When you surrounded by success and yo shit ain't the same
It's racking yo brain but stay down, is part of the game
Man out the basement I came so I always stay solid
And when I get my gold watch everybody acknowledge
I always write it then I do it, more like Danté the Prophet, nigga

[Hook: Con]
I came out the trenches
I got all this money from pimping these bitches
I sometimes slur on my words
Yes sir, I'm smoking but look, just get this
I gotta survive, physically or mentally
So if you vibing to this sound just get high and lift with me
Yeah
Just get high and lift with me
I like these chains and these watches and these shoes, they get to me
Yeah
Just get high and lift with me
I ride around with my niggas listening to a CD
Yeah
I gotta stay high, I gotta survive
I gotta survive, I gotta stay high
I gotta survive, I gotta stay high
I gotta stay high, I gotta survive

[Verse 3: Danté Wolfe]
Not even a couple months past
Ya niggas moving up fast
Dog I remember having every color, every bus pass
And now I'm giving much gas
Supplying all the must-haves
A STL nigga in the ABE
Just selling all of his shit off the A-V-E
And tryna make sure everybody notice me
A nigga just young and dumb or young and hella ambitious
Not knowing it's vicious all my goals was converted from wishes, yeah
And then I got my 18 karats with the leather strap
Couldn't tell me shit, couldn't tell me I wasn't rich (laughs)
In hindsight it didn't mean that much
Besides the one I got now cost a few more bucks
But, I grinded up to that and never forgot it
So when I got my gold watch I was Danté the Prophet, nigga

[Outro: Con]
