[00:03.098][Intro: Hit-Boy]
[00:04.160]Baby, baby, baby
[00:07.613]Baby, baby, baby
[00:14.255]Tsunami
[00:18.239]Surf, yeah, gang
[00:20.363][Verse 1: Hit-Boy]
[00:21.426]I caught the bus in the cold, 'fore I ever touched the icy watch
[00:24.347]Stood on my square, now these niggas want me stuck in a box
[00:27.003]Checkin' the rear-view in the Urus, had to circle the block
[00:29.660]'Cause when you make it from the bottom, they gon' come for your top
[00:32.319]Yeah, when you doin' you, they don’t like that shit
[00:34.707]I hold it down for the clique, with the types of grit
[00:37.629]G-Malone CD playin', white lightnin' sticks
[00:40.022]While I twist another rapper and I fire that shit, for real
[00:43.205]This make me wanna gеt some game from OGs, you don't know me
[00:46.659]Thеy sleepin' on me, thats the main reason, I don’t sleep
[00:49.051]The times that we livin' in, it could get frightenin'
[00:51.973]Imagine seein' Tupac body on IG
[00:54.098]How they did PnB, how they did Takeoff
[00:57.285]They'll take a hundred years to prove to niggas they ain’t soft
[00:59.941]Big Hit', sittin' in a hole as I write this
[01:03.130]Holdin' your wrist-high, these days is a high risk
[01:05.255]So the only thing I trust is my instincts
[01:07.378]I'm squintin' through the peep hole, nigga, I've been peeped
[01:09.771]All I gotta do is keep movin' intently
[01:12.430]And if I go today, I'll live through C3 and this beat
[01:18.534]And if I go today, I'll live through C3 and this beat
[01:22.786]And if I go today—
[01:24.910][Verse 2: Nas]
[01:25.175]Vocal chords got insurance, not Superman or Invincible
[01:27.300]Family we ain't see in decades, say he don't give to you
[01:29.956]Good ol' boy system, it's still shittin', per usual
[01:32.613]Broadway lights, Nas is ghetto-like, that's the musical
[01:35.270]Another statement from the kid who made the fade famous
[01:37.395]From the Bridge, swirl, sniff, sip reds — Bailey, Caymus
[01:40.315]Her BFF's so beautiful, told her "I need the two of you"
[01:42.974]We only gettin' older, one day this shit'll be over
[01:45.629]Four seasons in Costa Rica, she pretty as Mona Lisa
[01:48.285]Yellin' at me on the yacht, ****in' my inner peace up
[01:50.409]Quickly forget a diva, and you don't forget either
[01:53.068]They bite the hand that feed 'em, your man is low-key competin'
[01:56.253]Be somebody you helped, that got beside theyself
[01:58.112]Movin' like it's bodies under they belt
[02:00.238]Puttin' problems on you, they couldn't juggle theyself
[02:02.629]That's how y'all give it up?
[02:04.221]Do anythin' to feel a rush, well, go 'head then live it up
[02:07.677]That's why the only thing I trust is my instinct
[02:09.801]You squintin' where you see me, I'm so bright and I've been peeped
[02:12.456]All I gotta do is keep movin' immensely
[02:15.114]If I go today, I'll live through Knight and Destiny
[02:18.299]Sink or swim, nigga
[02:19.894]Surf or drown
[02:22.286][Chorus: Nas & Hit-Boy]
[02:24.144]I stand above the surface, another purchase
[02:26.005]I know my purpose, hoppin' out in retro Jordan 1's
[02:30.255]Six-figure whips, my nigga, we all in one
[02:33.706]I count up a milli', don't care if it's all in ones
[02:35.567][Verse: Nas & Hit-Boy]
[02:36.363]I take it all in hundreds, anythin' less, that ain't gon' cut it (Cut It)
[02:38.752]Took over the game, I'm havin' my way with it
[02:41.677]**** is they sayin'? This shit is outrageous
[02:42.737]It's niggas, don't even get fly as my baby is
[02:44.332]This shit is easy, I go the craziest (Crazy), craziest
[02:45.399]I go insane, that should be my alias
[02:48.582]I can't explain it, sit back in amazement (Amazement)
[02:50.669]We really made it, tappin' my cleats, I'm ridin' the basis
[02:54.122]Stuck to the basics, baby, two-faced it
[02:57.309]Hitters weren't loyal to some of these dudes
[03:02.090]I used to tapes with, they gotta face it
[03:02.622]Where do I start? They gotta set me apart
[03:04.480]Y'all make music, I make art, it's straight from the heart
[03:06.872]It's straight from the soul, I'm makin' it known, they gettin' exposed
[03:10.058]I live by the cold, they subject to fold, I get to the o's, o's, o's, o's
[03:16.168]Surf or drown
[03:17.760][Chorus: Nas & Hit-Boy]
[03:20.153]I stand above the surface, another purchase
[03:22.809]I know my purpose, hoppin' out in retro Jordan 1's
[03:26.528]Six-figure whips, my nigga, we all in one
[03:29.715]I count up a milli', don't care if it's all in ones
