one time in middle school this white girl named kacee called me ugly...she a crackhead now.
[verse 1]
bitch where, i never seen ugly in my life,
they tried to play me left cuz i didn't have the nikes,
blue 32 but we wasn't yellin hike >
and they stayed in my dad's trunk for a hunnid nights,
adhd in the hall in dancing,
mr. mammoth ask if i want them fancies,
everybody in the teacher's lounge is laughing,
meanwhile i'm at the crib gettin my ass beat,
ran to plainview one day, i did the track meet,
sound track dave hollister & blackstreet,
light blue shorts on, a nigga was matching,
nothing but a beater & a nap sack ask me,
where i'm headed, ion't know >
anywhere but here, where do i go?
had headphones but they didn't relax me,
pop had me fearin the villians would catch me,
every single time i would sit in the backseat,
i be in my mind till a nigga attack me,
the shit ugly but we keepin it handsome,
lewis hubbard's favorite grandson HELL YEAH
[hook]
when a nigga flip the script in yo face
[it can get ugly, it can get ugly]
when the chips is down & them niggas get gone w/o a trace
[it can get ugly, it can get ugly]
when all you need is a shot, but it's better if they keep you down
[it can get ugly, it can get ugly]
couldn't prove it before, but everybody know about it now,
[verse 2]
dumb ass niggas left to fend for themselves,
see 6ix 9ine, FREE YSL,
never been down with a bullet in ya crown >
so you can't see how you'd ever need clientele >
so yeah, a wire never been on me for my intel >
but every time i'm in jail i get bail,
the coins is different, and i'm harvey dent if i get tails >
these niggas don't really know what life entails >
on a cold wichita night all i got is L's >
niggas say life is chess, well shit i couldn't tell >
stare blank at the black screen & pray they couldn't tell,
where tf where you niggas when they needed help >
always wanna wear the pants when niggas needed belts >
you'll hold in ya hands just to give a nigga welts >
keep prayin for the juice God give a nigga welch >
God give a nigga wealth right?
nah give a nigga SELF
[hook]
i guess it ain't cold if the karats ain't froze,
since when should my black thoughts be jack frost?
when niggas say it's cars, clothes, money & hoes,
i just look at em like "you hit it on the nose"
that's all that these niggas want hit it on the poles,
get it on the flo, get it on the flo,
pancake chicken noodle soup on the stove,
Boo tellin me deandre over hov >
& to this fuckin day deontay on my SOULLLLLLL
i play that shit like it just came out,
said it before, real shit don't play out,
been there before laid on the floor wantin my head banged out >
still never once strayed from the course >
& one day we gonna make our way out,
the shit ugly but we keepin it handsome,
annie hubbard's favorite grandson HELL YEAH
