[Verse 1]
Now labels wanna sign 'em, Complaining don't solve nada
Remain the don dada, people's choice chart topper
Knot wider, stock folders, all off mami's Our Father's
Hate risen when thousand chains glisten
Stained vision
Kings County bounty hunter, rhymes part time grave digger
The hardest worker you heard of, the skills surplus
I'd wash the kicks with laundry detergent and write my verse up
Crossfading like a DJ's fingers off the rum and smoke
A country of friends say they keep it real but f*cking don't
NYC Housing Authority commuter
You ain't been through what I been through
You seen it through a computer
Keep your smile, bring the check swiftly
On unemployment I still gets busy
Like slight wind how my death hits me
Slained friends, gray Benz with my face missin', clouded by visualizations
Momma had no hospital, she had me on a pavement
We've been loyal to street signs
Basslines, goldmines, divine...
This for the rappers holding tears back with their ad-libs in their moms cribs
Knowing that they're Gods but get treated like their garbage
I'm there with you
Literally, look to your right
I'm right here with you
I'll break a mill with you
I'll break a jaw and break a meal with you
Your feelings hurt, but you deserved for me to keep it real with you, kept it real with you
(Thousand Chains)
[Verse 2]
Out-dress a whole Vogue spread in a cone head
Listened to Bob Marley and I started to grow dreads
You the type to personally know feds, woah
Baked up a blunt in times that we had no bread, woah
Don't drool over the Vetement Boots
I speak in spanglish to protect my roots
And kick that teflon truth
You been losing but you're trying your best
So I salute you
Confusing me as human, this divine in the flesh
I put in work on you squares, that's an assignment on desk
Death gon' come in a second so be alive through the rest
f*ck your homies thats lazy, making your passion a part-time
Life gave us apartheid, turned it to a hard drive
Saved up all the tears and made em all one hundred bar rhymes
Jesus with me inside, outside, alongside
The best MC with no ego in this bitch
Buzzin' in your ear like a mosquito when you sleep
I used to work at corner stores
Now I'm the super hero super hero super hero
Show out for my people, I'm a Regal Theatre
Eternal life how I use my rap
You smell the realness in my breath through a YouTube app
Speaking to God out, loud when you hear me rhyme bout
Getting paid like a housekeeper for cleaning my mind
Couple feuds, couple jewels, couple real ones remain
I thought we shared the same blood, you out here draining your vein
Thousands chains bro
[Outro]
Thousand chains on your neck don't make me give you respect
You best to feed your fam
