I spend the summer out in Clement Falls Fell in love and came up on some brand new drawers I was 13 sippin' St. Ides She looked like Kelly Williams with some slanted eyes I had a chick out in [?] Bitch used to stay stoned like the Philistine Said her man had a dick like a millipede She would let me fuck and suck her pussy for a little weed Checked in a motel, we had some more dope to sell Five dollar take though, you know the story well Mashed from the East O, straight to the east coast 24 hour grind, been on that beast mode My money was micro My bitch was a psycho She would start trippin', "Bitch is you on yo' cycle?" If you ain't fuckin' on ya period Then muthafucka you ain't serious I was 18 sippin' St. Ides Takin' weed across all them state lines But I never smoked my own supply How you gettin' money if you gettin' high? How you elevatin' if you celebratin'? Used to be illegal now they talkin' 'bout it's medication Free the homies that emancipation Grow 40 acres worth of weed that's my reparation In a nation tryin' to kill us, tryin' to hold us back I want my picket fence and a cul de sac Sacrificed bein' cool so I could stack my bread You tryin' to get some likes I'm tryin' to get ahead I'm dead serious about my presidents Had to get it done had no dad in the residence Had to do it on my own be my own man Said, "I'm 'bout to be a rapper" but had no fans No plan B to fall back on On the corner with my music, got my rap on I was 21 sippin' St. Ides Slangin' music that would change lives That was 7 years before I got signed But I never sold out to get mine I did me though, never flippin' kilos But still kept it hood like some chilly cheese Fritos No tuxedo, when I finally hit The Grammys In some Dickies and some Chucks so the streets understand me Never could me out but you can count me down A couple more years 'til I wear the crown Round and round man y'all know how the story go Give me all the money but to God is where the glory go Now-a-days it's kinda hard to find St. Ides So I might buy the franchise
