CAPITAL Lyrics

Drivin through east Nashville with a sentimental mind.

Rememberin a time when this shit wasn't even gentrified

Clockin in to work I had made my whole career crimes

Broke into my first house when a niggas only 9

It's cash in cash out the former missed an interval

Momma can't provide so we slide what we finna do?

Stomachs grumblin winters comin hit the wall and catch a veiw

The only way to keep the heat is keep it pushin on the move

Aiming at your chest if it's coming down to me or you

Look into my eyes I'm a child that shit pitiful

I look back I'm thinkin this shit feelin like it's Deja vu

I'm live every night come and see me like the evenin news

Doin what you gotta do but why you gotta do it to em?

I'm here to break a rock down ,the streets is lookin like Medusa

Look into her eyes,come out stone cold but rock solid

A drug dealin geodude look at all the rocks on em

A lint trap tryin not to get the fuzz on me

You ain't been there you don't know what it does homie

Rollin with a crew doin dirt getting dust on me

Learnin that the paper can't buy you out of feelin lonely

Something like Aladdin stealin bread fromdifferent pads hit the cave run the jewels make deposits in the stash.

Don't get it twisted I'm a victim of my past.

Every memory as I'm writtin getting worser than the last

All the enemies I have ended that I should've seen in class.

At the time all I saw was a nigga padding out his stats

It's crazy shit that little niggas do for cash

When the system sets a tender nigga up with they own matches

Jay z said it best AINT no love in this city trick

It's hard knocks and dope spots and where yo grandmama live?

I'm climbing to the top they hate to see a niggas vertical

Right below the surface of the city a submersible

Tuck ya wallet and ya chain tuck ya fuckin purses too

Tuck ya siblins in cause the youth is what they take from you

Play the hand your dealt I'm just tryna keep it practical

Keep it on your belt case you tryna get it tactical

The problems locked in and the answers mathematical

Niggas doing work 12 give 'em a sabbatical

Invested in my 2 cents? We need to get it radical

Straight from the dystopia I'll catch you in the capital

Yeah a nigga rappin what the fuck else I'm sposed to do?

Only a couple paths that they lay in out in front of you

My jump shot was trash and I got kicked the fuck up out of school

A younger me with options? I wonder what the fuck I'd do.

No time for wishful thinking when you're on survival mode

Can't stop the sickness it's systemic and the virus grows

They build a bigger box for brothers tryna to break the mold

Put you in smaller one for niggas fuckin up the code

That's how it goes keep yo money in the mattress

And keep it quiet lest some niggas pop up at your address

Pocket watchin niggas take they cut like paying taxes

Frayin on the edges guess I'm cut from different fabric

Feel the pain inside my voice music comes with haptics

Livin on the ledges one slip could end up tragic

I've lived the type of shit you play in GTA, imagine

a line between me and you I'm figuring out the fraction

G codes encrypted til you get the proper access

I'm pressin on yo collar like a motherfucking backrest

A black head this ill? A boil an abscess

A concrete jungle and I'm thriving in the wilderness

So stop in and get your fix like a coffee shop

bubblin just to make it you can call me Mr. Coffee pot

Flow is sweet I'm going nuts eat it up like baklava

So tap in run it back and check what I got knowledge on

Tuck ya wallet and ya chain tuck ya fuckin purses too

Tuck ya siblins in cause the youth is what they take from you

Play the hand your dealt I'm just tryna keep it practical

Keep it on your belt case you tryna get it tactical

The problems locked in and the answers mathematical

Niggas doing work 12 give 'em a sabbatical

Invested in my 2 cents? We need to get it radical

Straight from the dystopia I'll catch you in the capital
