[Wale, Joey Bada$$, Big Sean, Hit-Boy, Russ - Note To Self lyrics]

Yeah
Hit-Boy
CHOMP 2
CHOMP 2

5 A.M. in Atlanta, I'm writin' raps
Sometimes I'm fightin' for my dreams
But it seems like they fightin' back
Light a match in my soul
They tryna bring the rain
Any bridge that I burned always lit the way
I shoot the truth then watch it ricochet
Y'all just insecure like Issa Rae
The game in disarray, man
Who can really spit today? (Who can rap?)
I think people are gettin' tired
Of all the party rap
Me, I'm out in Vegas
I own the spot that I party at
Facts, different levels to this boss shit
Always had drive, Ryan Gosling
Since I had a notebook full of rhymes
They bribe like Lori Loughlin
They mouths is full of green
Like I'm in Boston
But I'm in ATL
I employ myself and I pay me well
Runnin' so much game, I tore my ACL
I said that I need a sure thing
She said, "Okay, Miguel"
How many millions did I make this year?
Maybe twelve
All I need's a couple weeks
To make it thirteen
Me, I can stay in touch
And still be out of your reach
Definition of keepin' it cordial
Got it poppin' like Orville
I made somethin' out of nothin'
Was always resourceful
Doors will form off of your will (Your will)
I never switched teams
You're more George Hill
Fuck the haters, focus on who loves it
(For real)
It's a shame to be chasin' love
And runnin' right from it
(Woah, woah, woah, woah)
Note to self

Niggas want loyalty
Without showin' loyalty (How?)
King shit, I want the royal
Treatment and royalties
My girl fresh-faced but
I love how she spoil me (Woah)
War time the only time
That you gon' catch me fatigued
I must be preachin' the
Way they crossin' me
Like I dot my I's and crossin' my T's
(T's)
Really I got a reputation I often proceed
(I do)
Lifestyle I live, hairlines often recede
(True)
Pursuit of happiness
I'm on the search of it
Covered in Louis Vuitton
We ride on the verge of it
Lot of people claimin' that they down bad
As bad as it gets (Gets)
But understand that rock bottom
A bottomless pit (Pit)
Somebody always doin' worse then
Worse as it is
Time forever tellin'
It's always gon' snitch
A walkin' target to these hoes
They always gon' miss me
Wisdom of Solomon, I'm always gon' listen
Saint Michael and Saint Germain
Always protect me (Protect)
It's a movie the way
These niggas drama projectin' (Boi)
It's a cold, cold game
And I'm goin' Wayne Gretzky (Boi)
Born the same day as Aretha
You gotta respect me (Respect)
I gotta start treatin'
My life like it's the only one
I done seen niggas lose they life
Over a hundred ones
I done seen wifeys
Who's the one's get one-and done
My ego say I'm top five
My heart sayin' I'm one-of-one
They want me to snap
Want me to fall, want me to crack
Want me the star
Of YouTube channels to see me react
Want me to bleed, follow their lead
Then never come back (Back)
But I don't see none of y'all names
On one of my plaques
Note to self, I never heard nobody
Tell me life was too long
Or talk about pressure then say
They on top of it (Top, yeah, uh)
Only that it's too short
And that they're under a lot of it
(Yeah, uh)
Somehow I still show love
When they show me the opposite (Look, uh)

Note to self, they always gon' go for self
If loyalty be cold then my .40 below the belt
It's lonely when you rich
But it's boring when you get help
That's why I run my race
And they slow 'cause they chasin' clout
Yeah
I got lawyer fees on my desk
Hoya tickets forever
These dogs pressing you out (Huurrr)
I inspire what they can't be (Okay)
I just be playin' gallery flares
Feel like Camp Lo (This is NY)
Hat low, I'm high though
My mind in is a spiral
They ask me if I'm sure, I say
"A gecko sellin' GEICO?" (Haha)
My respect is nothin' like though (Okay)
'Cause I write flows to turn
This cypher to a cyclone (Phew)
I got hoes, somebody wife
Could be my night though (Okay)
If y'all go dark, my vitriol got vitiligo
Oh nah, my remorse is nothin' like though
This is a goosie and Gabagool
Have a bite though (Oh, yeah)
I might go Michael Myers
On any night though
And y'all know I'm killin' these cities
Like Money Heist though
Precise though, no heart
Only pipe though
I'm in her back space so much
She thought she was my type ho
Nope, sophisticated, still a psycho
No bright ideas 'cause I will
Dim you niggas lightbulb
And spin this whole block like a dreidel
Happy Hanukkah
And mazel tov 'til I run out
Somebody cut my mic off (Yo, yo, Badmon)

Time to separate the kings from the gods
Streams from the bars (Shit)
You niggas hollerin'
I left the scene from a far
Here today, gone tomorrow
I'm who they honorin', I raised the bar
Diamond in the rough, not a single flaw
Keep it raw for the call (Bitch)
Ain't worried 'bout the scar
But if it's war
Kick in the door like martial law
It's levels to this thing, homie
We on different floors (Different floor)
I switch broads like I switch cars (Skrr)
It's just the hand that
I was dealt, I didn't pick the cards
I deal them demons from myself
Ain't had to hit the squad
Y'all niggas light work
If I told y'all what I made a verse
Shit, that might hurt
I can give y'all niggas a clue
How much that ice worth?
Take that
Multiply it by two and it might work
It really just all depend on my mood (Word)
'Cause if they don't
Pay me my dues, they pay attention
So in the end, I still get paid
Like a pension (Yeah)
Fuck nigga (Haha)
And I ain't even gotta rap
50 gave me like two Ms
How I'm 'posed to act?
(How I'm 'posed to act?)
Walk around like I got
"Unique" written on my back
("Unique" written on my back)
My life really like a movie
Hol' up, nigga, bring it back
(Bring that shit back)
Yeah, I said I ain't even gotta rap
50 gave me like two Ms
How I'm 'posed to act? (Hahaha)
Walk around like
I got "Unique" written on my back
My life really like a movie
Hol' up, nigga, bring it back

Back, back, back to back (Bring it back)
Way back, back to back (Bring it back)
Say, yeah, bring it back
Way back to back (Bring it back)
Bring it back (Oh)
Back to back (Bring it back) , uhh
Yeah, nigga
Jozif Badmon, you dun know
Joey Bada$$
Woah, CHOMP, CHOMP, nigga

About the song Wale, Joey Bada$$, Big Sean, Hit-Boy, Russ - Note To Self

1. Russ making music like it’s the 80’s/90’s style, this is hip hop at its finest, nothing better. Nas+Russ would be a duo that could be possible since vibes would make a blend that hasn’t been done yet, same for Nas+Joey Badass would be dope too. Griselda (Westside Gunn+Benny the Butcher+Conway the Machine,….etc…..) is also bringing back that raw 90’s NY style.

2. Yo the lineup on this album is crazy, first off SP, my favorite rapper, Kiss, Ransom, Lloyd Banks, etc. Russ been solid. This is just further solidification

3. Best rap song of 2022, come at me when its another banger like this! Paying dues like no other. Conconcioussness on a whole nother level, thanks for making this for us Russ!

4. I’m glad you finally convinced the game your way makes more paved a better path for myself and anyone that doesn’t wanna be the 3rd mans!

5. All the songs on this album went nutty but this song and hustler freestyle were my top two songs absolute fire!

6. The way Joey used his voice on this verse was dumb dope. Just hearing his background vocals throughout his verse lets me know he worked hard on the recording process of this.

7. Give this man hes flowers. Look at the names on the features the gezzas a monster. Effortless excellence should been the name
