soldier in the game

dame dolla

the wait is over

look

look

look

my first encounter with adversity

was somewhat an emergency

i fell off the path and my mental

it needed surgery

the more i stumbled off the more my actions started irking me

i got it together and the top looked like my turf to be

they think money rules i'm rich and i'm done with school

my problems still exist so don't listen to none them fools

for currency they runnin they lives into paid in full

i took a task and made it cash now my path done became cool

my life came full circle at the park was throwing left hooks

now i'm in the league with steph curry and russell westbrook

took a couple bumps boy you never would see my chest shook

my heart came from a lion this path only the best took

i wanna check the critics cause all they things they nitpick

they always seem to skip where he started his ascension

like reciprocity but that ain't what they give him

i did it from the jump but you stumble

they pay attention

aware of my surroundings at all time

a wall fly

i spot a coward a mile off

no small mind

put that pressure all on my shoulders

return with hulk's spine

a hot head when they rain on my parade

let my thoughts dry

experience in my life prepared me for the high life

all the times i struggled just prepared me for the highlights

used to circle shoes in east bay

now mine on fly sites

and we can toast to that

my circle sharin' in mai tai

my dad been kickin' game since i was young

i've been a sponge bro

100 wads in my pocket

covered by the ones though

never flex my muscles

don't welcome me to the gun show

never show it's done

just take care of who it's done for

huh

the dream free

but the hustle

sold separately

been knew i was only as solid as who was next to me

my cousins

my few good friends

the rest are x to me

cause bad crowd is only a recipe for rest in peace

i stand out cause i'm a soldier in a sucker's game

that paparazzi tryna shine me boy

i'm duckin' fame

some dudes call and set it up

and boy that's such a shame

the only time i really stunt is in my stunner frames

i love my life from the good to the bad

feel good to live with riches when comin' from rags

i paint a picture boy

just give me that pen and that pad

city in pieces

motivatin' the kids with the scrabs

gone
