00:07 It's all wavy though.
00:08 Creation, the Donda bag, actually was on my tour in the back of the bus.
00:18 My man Space ended up sending the beat and we just took off.
00:20 Man, it was super unique.
00:22 The piano play, the bass, like everything was crazy.
00:25 It was something he had.
00:26 Space, my producer, had never done before, so I'm like, he trying something, so I try
00:29 something with him.
00:30 The coolest place I ever been through the back was Club Lid.
00:41 They take you through some stairs and like under and you pop up.
00:45 It wasn't on my behalf.
00:46 I was with some other Lid people off they double park.
00:48 You know what I'm saying?
00:49 It wasn't even my double parking, but shit was still tight.
00:53 Yo, MCM be all up in my area.
00:55 He trying to join the team.
00:56 I told my young dog he can't be like me because he keep drinking green.
00:59 You can't be like me because you drinking green because green is the worst lean that
01:02 you can possibly drink.
01:04 When I was coming up, that wasn't cool.
01:06 Doing that right now, that suck.
01:07 Don't do that.
01:08 That shit lame.
01:09 Ain't no way I can't get back with none of y'all because y'all wouldn't be exes if y'all
01:27 even believe in what I had going on.
01:29 That was my first time performing in an arena period.
01:36 Big Sean ran up and embraced me in the middle of the performance, threw me off.
01:40 So it was lit though.
01:41 The Pistons about to win the championship.
01:43 Seeing somebody that I used to go to school with and they always ask like, "How you feel?
01:56 How you really feel?"
01:57 And I'd be like, "This shit different."
01:58 You know what I'm saying?
01:59 I'm just popping shit when I say, "I should charge you niggas just come."
02:14 Because a lot of niggas don't be knowing shit for real.
02:16 Then they come around and just peep your swag, peep what you want, then they pick up on it
02:21 and then take off with it.
02:22 I should charge niggas for that.
02:24 Red and white is candy cane.
02:25 I put F's on everything.
02:27 All white look like Dairy Queen.
02:29 Rolex watchin' everything.
02:30 She gon' hit her knees for me.
02:32 Think she wanna marry me.
02:33 Who decides work for us?
02:35 I put up Amiri jeans.
02:37 Who decides work is a fashion brand.
02:39 I went to that fashion show and I really enjoyed it.
02:42 No shots to Amiri, but I just was, you know how you be when you pop a shit.
02:45 You trying to start something new.
02:47 We put up the Amiri jeans.
02:48 We on this line.
02:49 So that's what it was.
02:50 Took a yellow den, took off.
02:52 Shit look like a spirit plane.
02:53 Why you take my dog from me?
02:55 I don't even feel the same.
02:57 Man, I got a lot to lose, but I got some M's to gain.
03:00 Let me just get out your way.
03:02 Niggas playing Insta games.
03:03 I got a lot to lose, but I got M's to gain.
03:06 Just getting out of people way who like to play the social media entertainment.
03:10 Cloud it out.
03:12 I'm out of y'all lane.
03:13 Way behind, I'm living, that's my game.
03:15 Give my business name.
03:16 I step up my neck, bought my mama, bought my kids a chain.
03:19 All this fucking ice on this shit.
03:21 You think my wrist is sprained?
03:22 Freaky ass, want a purple shower.
03:24 I be pissing drink.
03:25 We got a family group chat and I just happened to see my mama quoting it.
03:28 Ray said he gonna piss on a girl and she thought that was funny as hell.
03:33 I'm like, damn, my mama crazy.
03:48 We been knocking bitches though, but it's better when you bust down.
03:51 I can have this on and walk right past and get no love, but I can have something bust
03:56 on that on your head now.
03:57 Well, usually I got braces on sometimes and then I have my watch, so that's why I'm saying
04:14 I got shit on both my wrists for time.
04:15 They try to lock me up.
04:16 Talk about the dumb shit that you go through when you out here grinding, when you hustling
04:21 and trying to do stuff and then the police fucking with you.
04:23 But it's like we passed that.
04:24 We got shit on both our wrists now.
04:26 It's heartbreaking because it's like, you was the shit to me.
04:45 It's like, you fucked a lame ass nigga, but it hurts sometimes.
04:50 I bought my mama and I bought my kids some jewelry pieces, which they don't care about,
04:55 but it was just flatter saying the song.
