LOCAL JOKER Lyrics

Ay, yo

Hate it when they call a nigga loco

Take you to my first show, I was probably over-excited

Kick me out the party, I wasn't even invited

They only see the fame, not the things we go through in private

Shattering my future, not even knowing my talents

Taking all the deaths and then turning them to a profit

Calculate deposits, a long way from the projects

Really ain't have a option, my girl just got an abortion

My cousin got indicted, my grandma was picking cotton

Shit really up, mama told me I deserve it all

Ran a milli up, remember when I didn't have a car

Rode the city bus, took a few shots raising the bar

Now they envy us, since from my thoughts I been really saving my pennies up

Dollars in my safe, I been really saving my binges up

Turned them Nike check boxes to a cash vault

First 48, I seen bodies on the asphalt

Graveyard shifts, I been really working my ass off

Somewhere out of town in another state

To promoters, book a date, flip another cake

Them road trips worth the risk when it's something great

Drop a cookie in the lake and make something shake

Yeah, I'm on front street

Plugs still hitting up my line trying to front me

Underground king feeling like a nigga bumby

You ain't bringing nothing to the table, then you lunch me

I must be, nappy headed nigga like I'm buckwheat

Fishes from my scars I possess cause they cut deep

Travel with my dogs with that snow like a husky

How I lay it down when I do everything but sleep

I been grinding like I'm posed to

All around the country going coast to

I hate it when they call a nigga loco

I been grinding like I'm posed to

All around the country going coast to

I hate it when they call a nigga loco

Still do it for my people, guess I can't change

Same struggle, different story, share the same pain

Another campaign, hopping off the airplane

Trying to turn my granny tap water into champagne

Black spider, watch a nigga change lanes

Black S550, cocaine range

Smelling like Beryl Wayne, rocking shit I can't name

Brought my girl to bust down, I just want the plain Jane

What I'm demonstrating, painting what I'm illustrating

Whole hood renovated, I am who they imitating

Listening to Farrakhan, trying to save this generation

Crackers got our phone tapped, gave up too much information

Looking on them screens, shit ain't what it seem

Michael Jackson did my thing with that Billie Jean

Kidnapping on the block, I heard her mama scream

Only thing I heard on the news was a submarine

They ain't tell you about Lil' Malcolm, how they killed this dream

They ain't tell you about them walls when you in between

They ain't tell you about that judge, got caught up with them drugs

My dawg getting out, three,017

Local Joker, life's a rollercoaster

Rip man at my door with that final notice

One fan at my show, I'm still signing posters

Though I've been around the world, I'm still a local joker

I've been grinding like I'm posed to

All around the country, going coast to

I hate it when they call a nigga local

Break the internet, I'm going post to

Accomplish everything that I done told you

I hate it when they call a nigga local

I've been grinding like I'm posed to

All around the country, going coast to

I hate it when they call a nigga local

Break the internet, I'm going post to

Accomplish everything that I done told you

I hate it when they call a nigga local

I'm still a local joker

I'm still a local joker
