[00:01.24]I’m hopin’ I don’t look down
[00:03.71]Ayy, long enough to see me drown
[00:07.27]And if I ever come down
[00:09.67]I’ll be fallin’ on the solid ground
[00:13.22]Fallin’ on the solid ground
[00:15.59]Ayy, long enough to see me drown
[00:19.05]And if I ever come down
[00:21.41]I’ll be fallin’ on the solid ground
[00:24.04]Today, I had a conversation with one of my bros
[00:26.91]My homie, he’s been close to me since we were six years old
[00:29.87]He calls my mama, “Mom,” he seen all of my highs and lows
[00:32.50]From school fights to sharin’ clothes
[00:34.10]From B-ball to fuckin’ hoes
[00:35.80]He sat me down and let me know some things he never told me
[00:38.83]Things he never got a chance to say or even show me
[00:41.74]He said, “I know I don’t tell you often, maybe not even at all
[00:45.08]But I’m so proud of you and your success, broski
[00:47.65]And I admire how you chase your dreams, that shit’s courageous
[00:50.74]Thank you for never switchin’ up when you got rich and famous
[00:53.50]Thank you for never givin’ up on me or havin’ lesser love for me
[00:56.99]Whenever we lose touch and be on different pages
[00:59.52]I hope you know I’m here for you the way you there for me
[01:02.48]It’s crazy, you done more for me than all my family tree
[01:05.56]And when I say I got your back, just know I really squeeze
[01:08.13]And make some niggas really bleed, that’s really what I really mean
[01:11.31]I’m proud of how much you matured and grew, but you still you
[01:14.42]The world knows you for your talent, but I know the real you
[01:17.40]And all your trauma’s behind closed doors, you’ll never heal through
[01:20.37]And all the pain, you act like you don’t feel, but you still do
[01:23.26]I love the fact you keep your shit together, mentally
[01:26.25]You work hard for your respect, don’t need no empathy
[01:29.12]When people look you over and shut you out intentionally
[01:31.76]You always said, ‘If they don’t fuck with you, they will eventually
[01:35.10]But remember when I went through prison?
[01:36.99]When I did a bid and you the only one that came to visit?
[01:39.97]Put money on my books and sent me pictures of some bitches?
[01:42.99]They don’t make ’em like you no more, my nigga, you just different
[01:45.95]And bro, you ain’t have to pay my niece’s tuition
[01:48.58]Or set me up with that new job and try to teach me the business
[01:51.52]Always quick to hold me down before you speak your opinion
[01:54.26]What goes around, comes around and that’s the reason you winnin’
[01:57.67]But listen, I was thinkin’, maybe
[01:59.51]Since you my broski and I been there since we was babies
[02:02.85]You can hit the bank and break me off with somethin’ wavy?
[02:05.76]Maybe just a couple hundred-thousand? Nothin’ crazy
[02:08.54]’Cause I been hurtin’ lately and I deserve it, maybe
[02:11.49]And if you can’t do it, that’s cool, it ain’t like I’ll be angry
[02:14.45]You still my broski and I love you, but that’s kind of shady
[02:17.40]’Cause I been goin’ through some shit, it ain’t like I’m just lazy
[02:20.33]So maybe you should pay me
[02:21.85]I quit my job ’cause I don’t wanna work for no other niggas
[02:24.89]What maybe works for some, don’t work for some other niggas
[02:27.76]Yeah, they pay good, but you know I’m a stubborn nigga
[02:30.43]Plus, I know you got my back, right?
[02:33.54]If not, then fuck it, I ain’t askin’ again
[02:35.88]Just don’t forget who walked with you when your back to the wind
[02:38.95]And don’t forget who’s ideas that got you rappin’ again
[02:41.56]When you lost your passion and got lazy, and was slackin’ and shit
[02:44.78]And please don’t treat me like them niggas that be askin’ for shit
[02:47.62]’Cause I never asked you for a damn thing
[02:49.62]I’d rather pull a hamstring and then run across some fan blades while jumpin’ out a airplane
[02:54.12]While sittin’ in the damn rain, while beggin’ for some spare change
[02:57.05]I’m sorry that we all can’t be talented and rich like you
[03:00.36]The little people still struggle, we ain’t lit like you
[03:03.32]And if we bein’ honest, it don’t really seem like you want me to chase my dreams so I can get like you
[03:08.53]And lately, you been on some sucker shit, that’s what I see, broski
[03:11.83]I hope you know that hater shit is a disease, broski
[03:14.82]’Cause last time I checked, we was a fuckin’ team
[03:17.08]And just because you got paper, don’t mean that you better than me, broski
[03:20.63]I know everything about you
[03:22.14]I know every single secret
[03:23.54]I know where you rest your head at
[03:25.09]I know every bitch you sleep with
[03:26.55]I know where you keep your bread at
[03:28.09]I pretended I don’t see shit
[03:29.54]You a greedy motherfucker, you been hopin’ I don’t be shit
[03:32.50]You been gettin’ fat while I been starvin’
[03:34.17]You been buyin’ every car and house while I been in the garbage
[03:37.18]I deserve everything you got and more, and that’s a bargain
[03:40.19]You just wanna shit on me and see me fall, and that’s alarmin’
[03:43.00]You just hopin’ I’ma tarnish
[03:44.53]You don’t want me to be nothin’
[03:45.97]You don’t wanna open doors for me
[03:47.76]You did a lil’ somethin’, but you could’ve did a lil’ more for me
[03:50.57]No wonder why your father turned his back on you, unfortunately
[03:53.62]No wonder why your niggas set them traps on you to sorcery
[03:56.54]You ain’t nothin’ but a phony, you a liar, you a snake
[03:59.63]And you can rap, but you ain’t Kendrick, you ain’t Cole, you ain’t Drake
[04:02.68]Can’t believe I called you family, I should shoot you in the face
[04:05.52]Used to act like you was real, but always knew that you was fake
[04:08.56]You let the fame get to your head and all it did was made you whack
[04:11.39]I always knew the day would come when you would stab me in my back
[04:14.34]One day, your money gon’ be gone and I’ll be happy, that’s a fact
[04:17.49]And then you’ll move back to the hood and I’ll be laughin’ when you back
[04:20.35]But you my nigga and I love you
[04:22.07]And I wanna see you win, I wouldn’t place no one above you
[04:25.02]And you always been my friend since we was steppin’ in the puddles
[04:28.09]Real niggas don’t pretend ’cause you’re my brother, you my double
[04:30.97]You my motherfuckin’ twin, and I wanna let you know how I appreciate the things you show me
[04:35.99]It’s kind of hard to trust niggas, that’s why I keep you closely
[04:38.82]And look, I know that I don’t tell you often, maybe not even at all
[04:42.10]But I’m so proud of you and your success, broski”

[04:51.66]And if I ever come down
[04:54.02]I’ll be fallin’ on the solid ground
[04:57.64]Fallin’ on the solid ground
