Lyrics
Yo, yo, yo, yo
Yo, yo, yo, yo
Yo
We used to feel like we ain't had no hope (We ain't had no hope)
Yo, I swear I came a long way from sellin' dope (Came a long way)
We 'bout to do it like never before (Never before)
Yo, I swear I came a long way from sellin' dope (Came a long way, ah)
Back in the days where they sold you an O
Sold you an O, you gotta remind niggas)
Yo, I swear I came a long way from sellin' dope (I'd do
This shit without a pen too, nigga, came a long way)
Where this rap shit take you? You will never
Know (I came a long way, long, long way)
Yo, I swear I came a long way from sellin' dope (Look, ayy, look)
I lost a couple niggas, I swear this one for the set (Set)
Made a couple dollars, never switched up for my bet (Bet)
Let's talk about a brick, I really flipped one on my steps (I did)
These crackers hung us with ropes, that's
Why this thick one on my neck, uh (Ow)
My hoes be in Gucci fashion, I like my hoes bougie, ratchet
With me while my Uzi packin', but she be in movies actin'
Find out where your shooters at
I pull up on you, Google Map you (Brr)
I'm the one that truly snappin', it's my job to school these rappers
No 401k, I was thinkin' twenty bricks
Like, fuck it, I'll run for president by 2026 (Haha)
I got friends that's legal millionaires who never sleep
And only eat at spots that got the name
Of the restaurant on the silverware
These niggas can't spit like me, I been through it
They skim through it, hear music, then start to get influenced (Huh?)
Look, these niggas just got on my wave, but I been movin' (Huh?)
The Butcher's good as anybody you name, that's been proven, uh
Them jail photos took me back, my homie used to cook me crack
Now my wrist as good as his, please don't overlook these facts
My bitch hit the Tech, she said she
Can't believe how good we match (Haha)
Be rich if I had a dime for every time she took me back
I understand the struggle, so the struggle understood me back
Hoes after hustle, they gon' love us when I cook this batch
Shoutout to my CT niggas, them boys ride with us (Yeah)
Down to Detroit pioneers, way to Des Moines, Iowa (Ah)
Give me chills countin' up wrinkled bills, my girl eyein' 'em
I bring 'em gift-wrapped to your door if you boys buyin' 'em
Butcher, nigga
We used to feel like we ain't had no hope (We ain't had no hope)
Yo, I swear I came a long way from sellin' dope (Came a long way)
We 'bout to do it like never before (Never before)
Yo, I swear I came a long way from sellin' dope (Came a long way)
Back in the days where they sold you an O (Sold you an O)
Yo, I swear I came a long way from sellin' dope (Came a long way)
Where this rap shit take you? You will
Never know (I don't know where I'm goin')
Yo, I swear I came a long way from sellin' dope (Yeah)
I'm real, and plus I'm rare, shit's so sick in my city
Niggas still broke at forty, hoes independent at twenty
I caught it, I never fought the process
Explored my options, movin' like I knew
The Lord was watchin' (I knew he watchin')
You mention God in one of your songs, they
Try call you conscience (Call you conscience)
Until they end up behind bars, they avoid the logic (Damn)
I'm whippin' quarters out the water, had to call it Rodman (Woo)
Oh yeah, and like a Houston Charter, we brought all the rockets (Brr)
To make it lock up like I did, you gotta call the locksmith (Haha)
I woke up fiendin', told 'em beat it when I called 'em noddin'
I'm back again causin' problems
I guess the pressure was necessary, we flexed up
When stats tell you you next up, the haters gon' say, "God bless you"
Friends turn into foes, these hoes start actin' extra
Money gon' say, "Collect us," and family gon' say you left 'em
Let's go
We used to feel like we ain't had no hope (We ain't had no hope)
Yo, I swear I came a long way from sellin' dope (Came a long way)
We 'bout to do it like never before (Never before)
Yo, I swear I came a long way from sellin' dope (Came a long way)
Back in the days where they sold you an O (Sold you an O)
Yo, I swear I came a long way from sellin' dope (Came a long way)
Where this rap shit take you? You will never know (Never know)
Yo, I swear I came a long way from sellin' dope
