This remind me of we had insomnia Sleepin' peacefully, never needed a pile of was college-bound, no dollar amounts In God we trust, senior year my ain't had no party bus My cousin hit me on Facebook, like "What you takin'?" I'm lyin', I'm playin', I'm sayin', I got one to take and I'm on her response Wrote her a 3 page letter, it's 3 later, Never hit me back, she my heart So now he IM'ing me like, "Yo' is shorty bad?" I not to be depressed, she never wrote me back I hit him back like "Yo', well her, it's on to the next" I wrote that thinkin' I'm awkward, Prolly' would never sex You know in high school, 16 you prolly My hit me back, "Don't trip, bro. I got you a date." So he sent me this link to some I had never seen He said to call and her "Walter sent you, you with me." I think about it for a minute, like his intentions? I mean, we really got along or used to kick it In fact, if I vividly, he picked on me He to beat me up and take my sneakers every family visit I'm skeptical to let her know I'm Walter cousin What if this shit all a joke, again, what if it wasn't? Would I really the chance of me potentially fuckin' On some stranger daughter 'cause I barely know if I can him? not I finally her, tell her Walter sent me My Tahj She asked me the color scheme that we gon' wear to prom I'm actin' like I'm not excited, play it off So what's the car we're Worst worst, my mom can take us I'll call Walter, thank him, he said trip and just wear black He said she cool and they go back, if any problems, him back I never had to, but now we're in He Facebook me like not to be a nuisance... But he 30 dollars short on all his prom suit shit I'm like, "I got you, cuz. That's the that I can do." He tell me send him the addy and slide after school I'm like, "Ok, bet," never knew he stayed at He down the street, hella surprised, where y'all place at? Uncle Carl, Deborah, my cousin Rena And I'm surprised too, my family knew, kept a secret Me and cuz stay down the street, living lives he on the bus, me, I get a ride I him 30 on the porch, he never went inside He tell me, "Thank you," then he walked back home a smile He tryna hide it, but I see his I'm thinkin', "Damn, transaction was simple" I'm talking shit, I he hoop, I'm like, Aye, the rim, bro? He like, Tomorrow, if you free, you prolly as shit, tho. I my brother not So all 3 of us went to the park and ran niggas off the court I'm hella passive, I was passin', I have to score The next day the prom, I sleep, I stayed up My gave me a condom then walked away, didn't say nothin' She hopped out of her car and that her name was Jada My heart's racin', I'm focused, I'm tryna it playa her the croissant, or corsage Or whatever the fuck my mom me And said, "Now put it on her hand, Malik", family My grandfather me how to tie up a tie my dad lived in NY That's prolly why I was shy, so pictures on the porch, and then we headed for the prom and Walter went on prom the same day, but to a place So he text me like, "Cuz, the spot. Let's meet up later And bring Jada through," prom flashed, I kept it We show up to the where she brought a change of clothes I'm around like, Damn, I don't know nobody We at this party out and Jada left to get dressed I'm fakin' like I'm text Some stranger get really close, I swear that I hear his he put a knife to my neck Gave me the run like, "Jada my sister And if you hit her, fuck her, her miss ya, I'ma kill ya!" At point, I'm just exhausted Wondering where the Walter He up like 30 minutes after our altercation I never mentioned it to him, he overprotective And I if I tell him, that he'll beat this nigga's skull in Turn his body a skeleton, and our end terrible I exhale and say, "Fuck it", and I chose to let it go

Walt to St. Louis, had a full ride for his hoopin' Him and his coach got into it, now he back doing music, aye I was at Columbia, a damn near straight A I had one B in a hip-hop class, I that shit was stupid He transferred to Robert Morris, always down the street My let out at 2:40 and his class let out at 3 Mama asked me the hell I been and where the hell I be "I'm with Walter, mom, I'm safe" I walkin' in here late I might fall off in bed, I get girls now, I get laid I get caught up followin' Walter, I'm a of my age He talk to erry' girl in downtown Wingman, I fly though He was in Cal with Impala, he was that in the party Awfully popular for someone that they barely Plus we from the of city that they barely mention Just logged Twitter and somehow we was barely mentioned We signed our names on the mic list and then they skipped us And then skipped us again like a week later Like, obviously this fuckin' host read the paper Hella' intimidatin', the big guy have to flex So Walter walked to the host and the name you're callin' next Bullied our way to the stage and overstayed our welcome An apple get too far from the tree that it fell from Just like my father tryna do music and I make it Walter joined me for the journey the city waitin'
Walter invincible, death like a mad magician More than a mathematician I'm in LA on Bucket List Project, I get a call and get a feeling Normally Walt joke on the phone, this he over serious My droppin', I'm like, Yo, what is it? He say he with T.Y on the highway and some niggas just to kill him the clip on the car, but somehow they didn't hit him Sometimes I fuckin' Chicago, 'cause I hate this feelin' Innocent get shot at, in the broad day, the A.M I asked him for a play-by-play of how whole day went He said he to XSport, and they ran a full court And I can not retort without thinkin' that this be the reason So else you do? What about Ty? Is he still were you on your way from, And where you on your way to? He say he just left for at a friend crib, and that's it He say "Tahj, do shit but smoke, honestly Saba, that's it" Give him sympathy, another case of identity The news prolly' gon' run this, as two gangs from streets Police him like he just shot at a trooper My boy walked unharmed, And we did Lollapalooza, Six months pass by, everyday we celebrate, a better day I just Bucket List, Walter 'bout to drop a tape Everything goin' perfect, paint a better way PIVOT gang is on the way, we just out Lincoln Hall Then I went to to Sway I got home and got back on it, 'Cause was doin' tour dates Sendin' me links to that he made, Kid Cudi, we are not ridin' no waves, aye Grandma made us blanky plates, we played 2K, just a day before Fatimah got a show tomorrow, he text me, "We in hoe" I to the barbershop, the first thing the next morning Then I got up with Legit, we to do some recording 10 minutes into this session, I got a call from a I don't got saved, but I answer anyways She says, Hello, Malik, you or Squeak to my son today?
