[Benny the Butcher, Boldy James - Weekends in the Perry’s lyrics]
You gotta talk to niggas
In the language they can understand
(That's how it always been)
It's crazy I got Al up this late, ha
(That's how it always been)
Ayo, some shit you ain't gon' never change
So don't worry 'bout it
(That's how it always been)
It's the way it always been
Real shit though
Yo, word to every block in my city
They heard I got it
And my track record certainly show
I deserve the homage
And they refer to my shit like Malcolm X
Words of knowledge
Cookin' coke
Burnin' product was only a learnin' process
Steppin' on a brick of fentanyl
Before you heard about it
And my phone used to ring so
Much you get nervous 'round me
Cut ties with the game
The same shit that certified me
All my clientele gone
Miss the customer service by me
Yeah, they just like me, all my pie flippers
Ties to Virginia like Teddy Riley
Since rap I been treadin' lighty
They mad I'm back rappin'
'bout dope again
Never mind me
The pressure from my pen made
Them rap a lil' better
Finally
They crooked, bendin' the rules
Rappers I considered them cool
But when you talkin' most authentic
Then who gon' fit in my shoes?
I'm livin' my truth
Sky is the only limit I knew
From drug dealin' to music, I mean
What didn't I do?
Who didn't I put on? Took
Ls and then I regroup
On a shoestring budget
I showed them what I could do
Ask Jake and ask Cap 'bout
The bosses that I produced
I'm West best investment
But that's between me and you
Ah
Always been that way
(That's how it always been)
Come on, that shit ain't never gonna change
Just continue straight ahead
That's the one thing that's
Never gonna change
The way things have always been
Had to quit blazin' cigarettes (Uh, huh)
Was two-timin' my dame, I'm a bigamist
But the gang half of the blame
I live with regret (Yeah)
My brain a bit of a wreck
All this stress and strain left it disconnect
(Woah)
Cheffin' up all the 'caine
In that kitchenette
(Skrrt)
Acquainted with big execs
Who filthied up my name just to split a check
(Whatever)
Feel like I been betrayed by my silhouette
(Yeah)
Mistakes was made to correct
How I deal with the fame made me get upset
(Ayy)
Treated the same way that I lived with death
Shit weighin' a nigga down
Give me chills in my veins
Takin' whatever's left
(Woah, cold)
From everything that was tooken
In blatant disrespect
For good, better, best
Wouldn't trade it for less
(Whatever)
Took everything that came with it
And that came with a check (Big money)
But yet and still a nigga
Rich off pain and depressed
Chasin' a letterhead
Ain't got a case to catch
David Blaine with the press
Tame the dog and made it fetch
What else?
Come on, that shit ain't never gonna change
It's been goin' on since
The beginning of time
That's the one thing that's
Never gonna change
The way things have always been
In the language they can understand
(That's how it always been)
It's crazy I got Al up this late, ha
(That's how it always been)
Ayo, some shit you ain't gon' never change
