Lyrics

[Intro] Aye yo aye yo aye yo aye yo aye yo aye yo aye yo Why oh why oh why oh why oh why oh why oh yeah [Verse 1] I'm from Matteson Illinois that's where I come from A south suburb right outside of Chicago as shorty mama dropped us off at Mona's That's my auntie crib and we would go when mom and pop want to kick it on the weekend They hittin' comedy shows and running the city they was only like twenty when they had me And if I had a baby at twenty you probably wouldn't see me rapping but it almost happened Me and [censored] decided that we just couldn't have that yet She said I ain't trying to trap you naw it ain't like that Plus my daddy got money I don't need your cash But I'm scared as you are as unprepared as you are Another year of fashion school I can start my own line and then move to New York But instead I'm here getting visited by the stork She said I was supposed to be the one to make my family proud Older sister had a baby with a n*gga and he not around no more And I said you trying to say I'm the same? I had my dad that ain't how I was raised She told me no truthfully it's something that I gotta do for me Right now I can't have your child a little brown skinned baby that might get your smile I can't think about that what would your girlfriend think about that? [Hook] She said: did you think about it? I don't want to think about it bet you think about it every time you see me She said: if you think about it I don't want to think about it bet you think about it every time you need me Did you think about it I don't want to think about it bet you think about it every time you see me [Verse 2] I'm from Matteson Illinois that's where I come from As a shorty cousin Cory was my idol he could hoop while he was smoking cigarettes Gang banging he was hanging out west Then he moved in with us on house arrest Every time I rapped a verse for him he would say I was the best And I believed him too skip a couple years forward to when Cool Kids were touring like four years straight Tour busses suitcases everything was going great But me and Chuck was growing up and we just wanted some space He moved out to L.A I stayed back in Chicago Him and his lady got a place and he was living his life Same time what the fuck I'm a do with mine Can't just wait for Chuck to make decisions no more I can't be the little brother no more I gotta grow up they all looking at me now I gotta show 'em Drop my first solo album they say he in the zone Although it still feels weird hearing me my own I fell in love with it Same time I fell in love with her Two peas in a pod we were I had a whole last girlfriend that I couldn't let go of And you was my other main girl I thought she didn't know of but I forgot Y'all was at my birthday party when Lupe sent me all them bottles of Clicquot There it is, I had to link, I had to think, and just like that faster than a rabbit blink Shit changed, and you text me we ain't grown enough for kids And the nurse said there's a possibility for twins [Hook] She said: did you think about it? I don't want to think about it bet you think about it every time you see me She said: if you think about it I don't want to think about it bet you think about it every time you need me Every time that you need me Every time that you see me, yeah
