25 (Twenty Five)

Lyrics: Richard Thompson Music: Richard Thompson (Intro) Yeah… Girl I was 22 gettin' this shit by my lonely 25 25 25 25 (background vocal)
(Verse 1) I was 22 gettin' this shit by my lonely Mama calling on my phone she think I’m phony Asking me why I ain’t pick up the phone I got it on me, say girl i got it oonnn me! What you know bout living in that Honda Civic Ain’t have nowhere to shower nobody know I did it Patient for this paper life a solitary sentence Depressed about this shit My mama call i'd probably end it I touched 100 bales of mid Before you knew about that Za now I was breaking down by five dollar grams till it’s dawn out! Grandma asked me how the **** I’m doing I’ve been aight Breaks my heart to ask for them lil dollars I can’t sleep right **** it that was all back in the day Hundreds in my pocket I’m stacking bout 20 ways Ask us bout it nigga I could invest it and catch a play All up in the stock market 30 off in a day I done put 50 in I told my mama we ain’t never going back to poverty A Young bull stacking up this money Like I hit the lottery I promised you that I would never show this side of me Ayee… I told my mom we ain’t going back to poverty The way you got us at that city hit the lottery At 23 you had three kids I know you proud of me I made it to 25 nobody stopping me
(Hook) Know I’m blessed to see 25, 25, 25, 25, 25, 25, 25, 25!
(Verse 2)
They wonder why I don’t be… Playin on my phone during the day Is the quickest way to get hung up Tight about this schedule This discipline get me money Boy and these Niggas trying to kick it I done grew out of that If it ain’t about no money I can’t give time to that
(Bridge) Had to have Patience on the road Never bend never fold 10 toes on my own Had to make it all alone
(Verse 3) Just ask my daddy bout me You can’t put fear in my heart When I done swam out with the sharks Patient with this shit Like we was packing Noah’s Ark Had to get us there I had this vision from the start Aye I got em askin' bout me Picture me and my bitch when we was back in Maui Hating on me gon' be the quickest way to get the **** from round me I don’t play with niggas I just set the bounty From dog breeding to moving dope from a cold start The way I paint this picture I feel like a modern Mozart I keep keif chiefin' And known to bang like I’m Cozart It’s a money intermission I’m buying gold by the whole bar 30 out the market I coulda bought me a whole car 20 on sum dogs is you goin' fast Or am I going far Switched the bricks up now the houses buying us Goyard Take the rest invest in opp zones And now we own y’all
(Hook) Know I’m blessed to see 25, 25, 25, 25, 25, 25, 25, 25!
