LYRICS

No ceiling, still in my dreams
When I fell asleep, I was still in my dreams
Then I had a one gyal licking me clean
She wan' eat man like Idi Amin
What do you mean? I come for the cream
I made some mistakes that I gotta redeem
You put me in position that I don't wanna be in
We all make mistakes, I'm a human being
North Korean, Kim Jong-un when I spray the machine
You're on the other side if you ain't on my team

You get blacklisted if you hate on my team
Fam, I say what I mean, I keep my demons close
Late night, I speak to the ghost
Get high, fell asleep in my clothes
Animal instinct, sex, money murder, I fear nobody
Keep suttin' on me, 'cause I'm better safe than sorry
I'm a top boy like Sully with a six figure hobby
You're still on the road, better be getting that belly
Kicking off doors, better give it some welly
I came in the game, ran it like an athlete
Got a big money scheme, all my bruddas had to eat
Thought I was a scrub, sitting in the backseat
I was counting my money, making sure it's complete
They can't compete, there ain't no competition
I take what I want, you get what you were given
They calling me a rapper, man, I think I'm a magician
I didn't wanna kill 'em, but these niggas never listen

No ceiling, still in my dreams
When I fell asleep, I was still in my dreams
Then I had a one gyal licking me clean
She wan' eat man like Idi Amin
What do you mean? I come for the cream
I made some mistakes that I gotta redeem
You put me in position that I don't wanna be in
We all make mistakes, I'm a human being
North Korean, Kim Jong-un when I spray the machine
You're on the other side if you ain't on my team

As soon as I wake up I be chasing my dreams
All we do is win and we ain't changing the teams
I still creep through the hood
Pull up on my brudda just to see if he's good
See them with the gang, they be giving me looks
See him on his ones, I can see that he's shook
Mad 'cause I made it
New whip looking like a spaceship
You looking like you're stuck inside the Matrix
I could teach you how to hustle, how to save it
When the money talks, I can translate it
I'm the go-getter
G'd up with my feet up, it's no pressure
They make threats, but they never put their hands on me, they know better
You will get pepper, hot like Coachella
You're not clever, you're coming unstuck
I was up North, I was getting 'nuff love
Back down South, tryna make a young buck
And I'll be still be going when the sun comes up
(Greaze)

No ceiling, still in my dreams
When I fell asleep, I was still in my dreams
Then I had a one gyal licking me clean
She wan' eat man like Idi Amin
What do you mean? I come for the cream
I made some mistakes that I gotta redeem
You put me in position that I don't wanna be in
We all make mistakes, I'm a human being
North Korean, Kim Jong-un when I spray the machine
You're on the other side if you ain't on my team
