lyrics

i don’t even need the hype man
i just really need some light bands
i been broke my whole life
i been in the heat
i don’t need the ice
i just want some nice land
and a sigh of relief
like damn, i know mine gonna be
good,
and where i wanna be could happen in a night, yea
snap a finger and I’m right there

i am on a beach
i am feeling peace
got a lil drink
wavy with the sea
and the way the breeze
moves me
got the luxury
to still feel the bliss
i could believe in taking risks
if i gotta shift
i know i still got my shit
my dream

my dream

i aint neva need a hype man
i was not the type
and i think thats the reason why
i aint see the pie yet — they bias
cuz i aint crying for no white man
for us by us
they could tell it to my light hand side
i don’t care, ima real nigga
they can’t fuck w us
I’m a little bitter, so what?
its cuz i see the bigger picture
they want me to eat the bubble gum
but they don’t know where I’m from
i am from the ville
i could never run and i never will
i am made of steel, member when we filled
jugs with boiled water to go to sleep?
we ain’t have no heat
daddy run the street
things i shouldn’t see
and momma gotta eat
where that leave me?
so lemme repeat
i was never sweet
shit was never neat
now i gotta sweep
niggas think they woke
i can’t even sleep

niggas think they woke
i can’t even sleep

i don’t even need the hype man
i just really need some light bands
i been broke my whole life
i been in the heat
i don’t need the ice
i just want some nice land
and a sigh of relief
like damn, i know mine gonna be
good
and where i wanna be could happen in a night, yea
snap a finger and I’m right there
