How Far? Lyrics

Previously on Ready to Die

Three shots in

I swear it do the best harm

I swear I'm still waiting on the best part

Bumpy beginning

Three-one, what a rough start

But I ain't come to play

So I don't see a need to press pause

I don't see the need to try and speed my timing up

Played it straight for so long

I guess it's lining up

Bunch of fingers online

Deciding who not rhyming tough

Clearly they must've missed something

I think I got bars in my own right

Gotta be the one

There ain't enough for us both right

That's what I've learned from you niggas

Gotta flow damn near perfect for niggas

To come to terms with these conditions

OT, I even put in work on a slow night

Ain't at my peak yet

You should've seen where I came from

To stay on this ride

Gotta be loyal like James Jones

Been having to lead niggas to glory since ringtones

Trying to ball like Jim Jones

You feel the same then sing-a-long

Know that these dreams are just shooting stars

But I'm the best so far

This life a movie

Should've played your part

Imma be like this 'til the end

And I don't care what the reaction is

Ain't too many coming after this

Not taking score, the points on the board

How much more

I feel it now I'm so close

I know all my niggas from the East can relate

Should own a restaurant

For all the time I've had to wait

Let my momma tell it

I should be out here trying to make some kids

Or find a bae

I would if there were more than understood

But that's just not the case

Eventually, but just not today

Really their ideal nigga

I'm just not as paid

Or maybe I'm too spontaneous for 'em

You know, need a sure thing

The type of nigga play it safe

With the lights on

They told me the water's deep

But they ain't tell me bout pythons

All these that's gone false claim me

How you my blood

When it only be one person in the back

While I write songs

Promise that you can't even see the half

On your iPhones

Trying to read my hand

But you can't, cause it's facedown

Just know I'm bout to pop up on your feed

With a new sound

I don't want these hits to be the reason

You came 'round

So if you had anything on your chest

Say it now

Know that these dreams are just shooting stars

But I'm the best so far

This life a movie

Should've played your part

Imma be like this 'til the end

And I don't care what the reaction is

Ain't too many coming after this

Not taking score, the points on the board

How much more

I feel it now

I'm so

Close
