The Takeoff by 23 Unofficial Lyrics
[Verse]
I still do it on the daily
Nowadays, I don't bother if it doesn't pay me
Born in the 90's but the streets raised me
Still find me with the somethings comin' outta Page 3
Hide your daughters, I'm with lots of ballers
Give her 'nuff vitamins, I'm what the doctor ordered
And even though we're out here flyin' straight
Somehow, I still feel the blocks are calling
I just wanna get bread and mind my business
Stay patterned, we forever wit' the litness
Everyday, I ask God for forgiveness
And pray it all works out but this ain't fitness
And we just workin' on it
Takin' life as a lesson, we just learning from it
And all the things it comes with but we ain't hurting from it
Nah, I said that we ain't hurting from it
See I can't take no days off
Grind 24's, don't know about a day job
You already know hard work always pays off
And nothing ain't changed, I'm still the same boss
PhD in streetology
I swear, nothing nowadays beats honesty
We tryna build empires, build colonies
Reason why when I do somethin', I do it properly
See I ain't with the halfhearted
Fully in it with anything It take part in
To reach the top, ain't always a straight target
Nah, ain't always a straight target
They say I'm heartless just because I learned to use my heart less
I just tell 'em that it's farfetched
The streets left me with a cold heart
And every time I went outside, I swear it got a little colder
I still do it on the daily
Nowadays, I don't bother if it doesn't pay me
Born in the 90's but the streets raised me
Still find me with the somethings comin' outta Page 3
Hide your daughters, I'm with lots of ballers
Give her 'nuff vitamins, I'm what the doctor ordered
And even though we're out here flyin' straight
Somehow, I still feel the blocks are calling
I just wanna get bread and mind my business
Stay patterned, we forever wit' the litness
Everyday, I ask God for forgiveness
And pray it all works out but this ain't fitness
And we just workin' on it
Takin' life as a lesson, we just learning from it
And all the things it comes with but we ain't hurting from it
Nah, I said that we ain't hurting from it
See I can't take no days off
Grind 24's, don't know about a day job
You already know hard work always pays off
And nothing ain't changed, I'm still the same boss
PhD in streetology
I swear, nothing nowadays beats honesty
We tryna build empires, build colonies
Reason why when I do somethin', I do it properly
See I ain't with the halfhearted
Fully in it with anything It take part in
To reach the top, ain't always a straight target
Nah, ain't always a straight target
They say I'm heartless just because I learned to use my heart less
I just tell 'em that it's farfetched
The streets left me with a cold heart
And every time I went outside, I swear it got a little colder
