SOB lyrics
by Vince Staples
[Verse 1]
Just riding around in a convertible Corolla
Waiting for the light to change, hopefully my luck will change
Went to sleep p*ssed off, woke up broke as f*ck again
Being mediocre is some sh*t I'll never understand
Never had a 9 to 5, never did an application
And rather rob a n*gga, when I get the chance, teacher's tell you
"Get a plan, go to college, let them empty out your pockets"
What the f*ck I look like, n*gga? For real
It's safe to say I put my heart in the trap but
How in the hell could you fault me for that when
It takes money to be sh*t and we never seen it
So I'm doing dirt, let the police clean it
Standing on the edge of a tall cliff
Trying not to fall deep into the shark pit
I guess I'm God's gift to Hell in a funny way
Can't wait to see my life change once the money came
[Hook: Mike G]
n*ggas only come around when the money's 'round
Catch you slipping 'round the town just to gun you down
Wasn't f*cking with me then but I bet by now
These mothaf*ckas know they like my style
Tryna figure out, What the hell they want from me
Why I love everything that involves money?
Hope I get enough just tryna live it up
sh*t I want yours too, you should give it up
[Verse 2]
She said she like money, I like Hummer's, you want to trade?
Just another disappointment in my f*cking day
Slave to my lifestyle, would try and make a change
But I heard about the sh*t they doing to the runaway's
Swear that I would change everything if my gun could stay
Said she doesn't understand, anything I f*cking say
Problems with women, she's tripping but get's p*ssed
Cause I tell that she just a b*tch, and never really meant much
But if I told you that I loved you would you give a f*ck?
Or even have the decency to listen up? Probably not
I swear like every time you come around my f*cking heart will stop
Can't wait 'til I make way and the talking stops
But for now I just stare you down in the parking lot
From a far distance, just hoping, just wishing
That maybe you might not think I'm crazy
I know you probably wish for the same thing but f*ck it
[Hook]
