lyrics

I'm tired man
Trying to deal where's my advance
Know my team's got a fighting chance
I'd say I quit but I kinda can't
Cause I'm fire man
Slangin' bic that's my lighter brand
Magic tricks no slight of hand
Trying to do my bit for the plight of man

But a TikTok kid said kill yourself
I said thanks big dog hope you've been well
The internet is a greasy hell
But I'm still online I got things to sell
Hey it's all good no pleasin' people
Heard plenty of um say they hate the Beatles
Might see me as the face of evil
Too old for rap but I thread the needle

High stakes
I take all the trouble
You don't know
Unless you got it like that
High stakes
I take all the trouble
It was gone
But I brought it right back

High stakes
I take all the trouble
You don't know
Unless you got it like that
High stakes
I take all the trouble
It was gone
But I brought it right back

I know I'm no shiny object
They project don't get the project
I take no and say it's not yet
Yeah most days I trust the process
I self-soothe with Ricky Rubin
Sell myself on just improvin'
Been gatekept but kept it movin'
Called it lessons it might be losin'
Real talk I don't lip sync
Fulfilled all my instincts
Boosted chops
And loosened knots
I do my job not big things just think
Rinse repeat like Listerine
Stay smooth off top like Mr. Clean
Free from who's not listening
Im sick of posting click the link

High stakes
I take all the trouble
You don't know
Unless you got it like that
High stakes
I take all the trouble
It was gone
But I brought it right back

High stakes
I take all the trouble
You don't know
Unless you got it like that
High stakes
I take all the trouble
It was gone
But I brought it right back
