lirik lagu bill wailey – all ’bout the slums
[verse 1]
just a young n~gga born in a small town, vhd
back then i saw my mother as a f~ckin’ phd
i grew up at a place where electricity was unstable
better make sure my phone was charged, so i’m able
to keep talkin’ to b~tches that wanna get the wailey rub
it seems all my life i’ve been longin’ for a hot tub
was breastfed, don’t know sh~t about baby milk
eighteen years and my skin still smooth as silk
used to bring lunch to school until the tenth grade
used to get a bald haircut until i got a f~ckin’ fade
went to a convent school and maybe a catholic church
n~ggas back then could never knock me off my perch
it’s crazy how back then i used to bе quiet and shy
’till i got robbed one day, rеalized that i should try
to be that kind of s.o.b that should be taken seriously
made a lot of fake friends, some that would ridiculously
try to take my food and my money as if they bullies
thou i’d f~ck their b~tches if i want to, talkin’ groupies
yeah, i guess i had a pretty rough and great childhood
at the same time ’cause i was a cheese in the hood
took two buses a day, to go to school and to come back
home, yeah i know, r20 for an individual is a kinda wack
bus fare and sh~t, but i guess i don’t make the rules
and i also guess i was convicted to hang out with fools
that throw me under the bus every chance they got
but i guess they can’t deal with the fact that i’m hot
hotter than the geyser when i take a f~ckin’ shower
like every day, i’m tall so people look at me like a tower
all my life i used to be deemed a spolied little brat
that would 6ix9ine his n~ggas, as in snitch like a rat
never gave one or two f~cks what they think of me
only gave two f~cks at the b~tches that wink at me
[hook]
used to get the water from the jojo tank
used to take taxi rides at the taxi rank
man, i used to entertain a lotta chumps
but i guess it’s all about the slums
i grew up in these slums, yeah
i was made in them slums, yeah
i wouldn’t change a single d~mn thing
when i come back, i’ll be treated like a king
[interlude]
yeah, guess we made it out the slums, mate
guess i’ll never enterain no chumps, mate
yeah, wanna hear a little backstory, n~gga
well, this how my life was in the slums, n~gga
look
[verse 2]
treated like a star when i’m walkin’ on the streets
lookin’ at ’em b~tches, wanna get in my sheets
yeah, day never ends without gettin’ an errand
n~gga greet me every day like “ekse, you grand?”
used to go to places until i got stuck in my couch
like a lazy potato and sh~t, stuffin’ sh~t in my mouth
sh~t, n~ggas moved on sh~t, well i guess so did i
sun shinin’ so bright that i could only see with one eye
only n~gga in the street that went to school in town
nearly went to the slums school, ’till i turned it down
focus on school, tv, xbox, only sh~t i could focus
on and sh~t, yeah i know what you thinkin’, it’s bogus
got caught smoking and sh~t, now a n~gga down bad
momma trippin’ saying my dad lookin’ down, all mad
and sh~t, that ain’t true, dad always was proud of me
everytime he saw me, full of joy, always loud with me
f~ck, when i lost him, felt sad and angry at the same time
thought that he was stolen away from me like a crime
used to go to church ’till i dropped out when i was ten
sh~t was a little more complicated and strange back then
not anymore at least, d~mn now the bible is my church
it gives me the peace and the tranquility that i search
for in my life, and it also reduces my high levels of stress
feel like yelling “checkmate” like i’m playing chess
yeah, it’s checkmate every day when i smash ’em b~tches
but don’t think that they’ll get some of my family’s riches
h~ll nah, i’m a stingy and a willing n~gga, two in one
think of withdrawin’ my bet, don’t think i would’ve won
yeah, i’m a focused n~gga with one simple goal in mind
to be successful businessman, gotta stay on my grind
so you better pull up your socks and take charge, dawg
or you’ll be forced to come back to the slums, dawg
[hook]
used to get the water from the jojo tank
used to take taxi rides at the taxi rank
man, i used to entertain a lotta chumps
but i guess it’s all about the slums
i grew up in these slums, yeah
i was made in them slums, yeah
i wouldn’t change a single d~mn thing
when i come back, i’ll be treated like a king
