sixteen

Singer: lil berete

at sixteen had a glock

seventeen

homies dropped

yeah

i gotta get up in my dreams

i ain't lost

i chase green like a boss and i get cheese

no deposit

yeah

i done put them g's up on my jeans and my socks

i was just a teen on the block

in these streets

yeah

it cost

man

on the block

i was ridin'

bullets poppin'

yeah

no dodgin'

now i'm lovin' all this money

and i came up off of nothin'

dark night

couldn't see shit

now my days sunny

always tell me that they loved me

paranoid

ain't no cuffin'

'cause i came up from the basement

now my pockets huntin'

yeah

i was strugglin'

i was buggin'

i was livin' with my cousin

holla maja 'cause he don't sell my soul

no illuminati

yeah

i been sleepin' at the trap

ain't got time frontin' new clothes

ridin' around in the rolls

we blowin' gas

i'm talkin' smokin' ghost

i might head up to the coast

i'm just tryna see some more

baby girl

she love my lingo

she wanna talk some more

brazy chain

bling on like woah

ain't no red light

i just see the green then i go

mama told me slow down

fourteen

here i go

shit got real

i seen shot

fifteen

here i go

i'm still savin' for a mas'

yeah

at sixteen had a glock

seventeen

homies dropped

yeah

i gotta get up in my dreams

i ain't lost

i chase green like a boss and i get cheese

no deposit

yeah

i done put them g's up on my jeans and my socks

i was just a teen on the block

in these streets

yeah

it cost

man

on the block

i was ridin'

bullets poppin'

yeah

no dodgin'

now i'm lovin' all this money

and i came up off of nothin'

dark night

couldn't see shit

now my days sunny

had to starve

boy

i was complainin'

there was enough time to fix it

i was down

man

for so long

now i'm goin' up like my digits

life's two much in the streets

they miss me

had no love from my sisters

writin' a check

oh i kept fighting

gave a buck to my sisters

never gonna stop until these hunnids reach the ceiling

yeah

i got problems in the hood

i see they needy

they not ride-or-die

yeah

my vision's turnin' 3d

i still hear them sirens

gotta stay up out here feedin'

i be honest 'bout my friends

they tryna envy

i'm countin' double digits 'cause i'm tired of stackin' pennies

who's gonna hold it down when shit get real

niggas hate me

where i'm from niggas junk

this music came to save me

yeah

yeah

at sixteen had a glock

seventeen

homies dropped

yeah

i gotta get up in my dreams

i ain't lost

i chase green like a boss and i get cheese

no deposit

yeah

i done put them g's up on my jeans and my socks

i was just a teen on the block

in these streets

yeah

it cost

man

on the block

i was ridin'

bullets poppin'

yeah

no dodgin'

now i'm lovin' all this money

and i came up off of nothin'

now my pockets huntin'

yeah

i was strugglin'

i was buggin'

i was livin' with my cousin

holla maja 'cause he don't sell my soul

no illuminati

yeah
