LONGEST DAY, SHORTEST NIGHT

produced by @Faunafauna
mixed/mastered by @roeme

Lyrics:
I swear u don’t know me..
Aside from this music shit u never will 
Ill prolly never get a deal
But if I do I hope its Def Jam 
I touch the bible with my left hand.. 
Cuz I’m lying out my asshole
Really I think I deserve this cashflow 
And not no million dollar deal
I aint tryna be only rich  nigga in the hills….
Losing touch of whats real
Ill prolly buy a crib smack in the hood 
Give the homie dap like whats good..
Cuz I aint new to seeing money
Uncle had a Bentley 
Even tho it looked funny

That nigga showed me bout the bread early 
It give a black man power..
That shit had me up at 8:30
Just to walk a nigga dog..
For a lousy 20 dollars..
Use that to cop the fake polos…;
Just to floss on you dodos 
Now look

only niggas in coach

Say My Name (ft. Pip Millett)
