Nipsey Hussle:
I'm prolific so gifted
I'm the type that's gon' go get it no kiddin'
Breaking down a Swisher in front of yo buildin'
Sitting on the steps feeling no feelings
Last night it was a cold killin'
You gotta keep the devil in his hole nigga
But you know how it go nigga
I'm front line every time it's on nigga
Hunnit proof flow run and shoot pro
458 drop playin' Bulletproof Soul
Every few shows I just buy some new gold
Circle got smaller everybody can't go
Downtown diamond district jewelers like Yo
Hussle holler at me I got Cubans for the low
Flew to Cancun smokin' Cubans on the boat
And docked at Tulum just to smoke look
Listening to music at the Mayan Ruins
True devotion on the bluest ocean cruisin'
My cultural influence even rival Lucien
I'm integrated vertically than y'all niggas blew in
They tell me Hussle dumb it down you might confuse 'em
It's ain't that weirdo rap ya'll motherf**kers used to

Yes it's evidence of a divine presence
Blessings help me out at times I seem reckless
Effort got a L but got an E for effort stretch it
Dropped him off in the Mojave desert and left him
