Runnin’ Out
Coming out strong
I’m coming out strong
Yo I been grindin’ way too long
It’s been way too long
Had to sing a different song
Sing a different song
Before my time is all gone
Before my time is all gone
I been out here on the road
I been on the road
Maad ticket numbers sold cuz the people go
When the back come around back up in your town
We the hottest shit around
Tear it up and lay it down
I Don’t hear with your empty work
You gotta get up and go get what you fuckin’ deserve
LaFerrari highway with a J and a swerve
Takin them corners fast as hell fuck what you heard
Fuck all these politicians giving excuses and lies
Hope they power Puerto Rico ‘for more people die
Hope I get this money soon so I can power mine
Every second yo I always feel like I be runnin’ out of time
Clock is tickin’
Clock is tickin’
Yo I’m runnin’ out of time
Runnin’ out of time
Clock is tickin’ so ya know
Clock is tickin’
Clock is tickin’
Yo Im runnin’ out of time
Runnin’ out of time
Clock is tickin’ so you know
Clock is tickin’
Clock is tickin’
Yo Im runnin’ out of time
Runnin’ out of time
Clock is tickin’ so you know
Clock is tickin’
Clock is tickin’
Yo Im runnin’ out of time
Runnin’ out of time
Clock is tickin’
Let’s go
Clock tickin like a bomb
Time runnin out
That Virginia shit
Hustle hard is what we all about
And without a doubt
Team work make the dream work
Team Skirtin tires
Fuck yo feelings if yo feelings hurt
Yo I am the man
Tennishu a strong african
I no pop no zan
On the grind huntin for the band
Game token needed just eat it’s in my hand
Can’t build notin’ else on top of quick sand
NOOOOOO
Ima do this shit the right way
Hustle every second of every single day
Thank the one above for the life thru the night
And ask for my momma to see the money gettin’ right
And ask for my Daddy to see the pockets on swoll
The whole rich city maybe ya know we on a roll
Ya know that Ima grind and get mind
Rain or shine
But I be feelin’ like I be runnin’ out of time
Clock is tickin’
Clock is tickin’
Yo I’m runnin out of time
Runnin’ out of time
Clock is tickin’ so ya know
Clock is tickin’
Clock is tickin’
Yo Im runnin’ out of time
Runnin’ out of time
Clock is tickin’ so you know
Clock is tickin’
Clock is tickin’
Yo Im runnin’ out of time
Runnin’ out of time
Clock is tickin’ so you know
Clock is tickin’
Clock is tickin’
Yo Im runnin’ out of time
Runnin’ out of time
Clock is tickin’
Let’s go
Chance:
What’s good Tenney?
Look
Tryna pull up at the clearport with not a soul on it
Throw a rainbow on the wrist with a pot of gold on it
Leprechaun in the hood I be lookin’ cold on it
Shortcomings but I exercise the demons so the rose on it
I know the diamonds ain’t the right path
But I been flexin’ errryday I need a ice bath
Pain in my life damn I just be concealin’ it
Racism still alive winnin’ be revealin’ it
Pull up with illegal tint
That’s just the melanin
Devil knockin’ at the door
Don’t ever let him in
Plymouth rock landed on us I got the message then
Don’t be quick to settle
Stock the clock and ice the mothafuckin’ bezel
Clock is tickin’
Clock is tickin’
Yo I’m runnin out of time
Runnin’ out of time
Clock is tickin’ so ya know
Clock is tickin’
Clock is tickin’
Yo Im runnin’ out of time
Runnin’ out of time
Clock is tickin’ so you know
Uhhh
Clock is tickin’
Yo Im runnin’ out of time
Runnin’ out of time
Clock is tickin’ so you know
Clock is tickin’
Clock is tickin’
Yo Im runnin’ out of time
Runnin’ out of time
Clock is tickin’
Let’s go

Faster faster
Go for what I’m after
Do just what I have to
Work it like a master
Smash Smash
Until I hit the casket
Money In the bank
I got the bread in the basket
All these people they be steady ringin up the line
But why
I’m neva gon resign
Neva gonna quit
Ain’t stoppin for shit
Until this shit is lit
Until we get legit
Me and team with scheme and the dream
And the plan with the papers
Hit the paper with the trail
Got the paperbagz comin to me all up in mail
Got a cup fulla water and some wind up in my sail
When that truck pull up then yo skin get kinda pail
I be ringin’ up the homies 911 is who yo hail
As we slide through the spot got the drip all on the rail
Got the champagne poppin’ with the raise fingernail
Got my nose on the ground bloodhound on the trail
If you down put the check before the check up in the mail
Neck up with the ale bail if you scared
Can’t you tell
Got the heart right from the start
That’s the shit that ain’t for sale
We
On the way we on the way now
Ugh
Like everyday everyday now
Hell
No homie we can’t slow down
When the sun is down
And ain’t no one around we gotta move
Faster faster
Go for what I’m after
Do just what I have to
Work it like a master
Smash Smash
Until I hit the casket
Money In the bank
I got the bread in the basket
Basket bread breakin’ up
Everyday we walkin’ up
Finna be cakin’ up
In the truck still stuck
On the road on the grind
Come at you from behind
Tennishu In Your mind
Up high in the sky
Got you on the low
Won’t you come inside tho?
You know I’m a natural
That is just the factual
The actual purpose I serve is to be a radio
One slip up and away me go
Don’t play me ho
I can smell bullshit scent in the air
I don’t care
Move faster
Ima move faster
Your style a disaster
My sound is immaculate
For sale so you have to get
Awwwchit
All the people headed to the dance floor
Busta Rhymes on my mind people say Gimme Some More
Hurrup cuz I’m finna roll
Right back to the office space
Get back to the paper chase
Look back no you can’t erase
No such things as Ls tho
It’s official
Tennishu I got that firrrrr I move like a missle cuz I move
Faster faster
Go for what I’m after
Do just what I have to
Work it like a master
Smash Smash
Until I hit the casket
Money In the bank
I got the bread in the basket

But I come from the soil
Born out of pure earth
Consumption by the masses
Asses shake when my record break it’s a fuckin’ classic
Too late to duck you bastard
The answer for they asking
The titan they be clashin’
Back in the cut I’m laughing

Schemin’ on every dream
Scopin’ in every hope and
Toy with a different theme

Before I depart
To the end from the start
From the beach to the park
Just a spark just a bolt I’m chasin’
Gotta go I cannot let the time be a wastin’
dis no vacation
I’m growing impatient
I’m growing complacent
Ya know death is adjacent
I kill it like Jason
You laugh in’
I’m askin’
What’s the issue need a tissue for you snap?
I’m worried tell me why you got them tools on yo lap
It’s blurry
Wipe out my eyes to surprise and mistrust
All the lies and disgust
On & Up it’s a must
Can’t stop me
Lambo, Chevy or parked in a old jalopy
Got my ass in first class to the toppy
No dis not a hobby
Wait up in the lobby
Brown like Bobby
Carbon copy boy ya way too sloppy for the truce
Tennishu
Tell me what you gon do

I do what I want to
I do what I want to do
One two three fo five we alive
Take a dive into the regular
You can leave your cell phone
Dip into this nebula
Don’t worry bout the time zone
Many we have flown through
Cash we have blown through
They know what I’m gon’ do
Doing what you will do
They shit in the bathroom
Moldy like some mildew
Tennishu a ill brew
Forge with time and innovation
Lames steady barkin’
They don’t have all of the information
Full of misedumucation
Hollin’ we gon git dem bands
You stand for nothing so all the hurdles fold in’ up your plans
Thinkin you immortal death is waitin’ on you for a dance
Twice a glace careful cuz you spill in’ wine all on your pants
Thank god for the ones gifted
Diamond in the ruff but I do my own siftin’
Light green liftin’
Roll up when the shows up
Attitude and grind on 11
Givin’ no fucks
Workin for the slow bucks
Fast money cum and go
Dollar bill buy a rocket or a new condo
Bangin’ a la rondo
High on the stereo
Tourin’ with the gang
How high will the Butcher go?
Don’t nobody know
On the high and the low
We the dynamite TNT Blast nitro
Put my mind on the grind every second I go
Got the flame I get it poppin’ see you know you want some more
I do what I want to
I do what I want to do

Always on the grind work insane
Bring enough back for the whole gang
Firework show we the big bang

Riding wit the winners in the in zone
Built for the top spot one time
Stay home if you wit the excuses
If you lame I’m chuckin up deuces

Wannabes way too sleepy
Creepy ackin way to needy

Pause for a trip out to Hollywood

Schemin and dreamin plan I devise
Look right and left so you don’t collide
Back as soon I’m back you can’t run and hide

Spit bars white hot caucasian

Yo

It’s nice to meet you
Kick yo shoes off and have a seat too
You look like you been runnin for days with no rest
Or at least that is what everybody sayin’
Playin’
Chess not checkers
Ice cold world
Keep a nice sweater
It’s big world and its full of chedda chee
You can laugh at me
But I spend that money happily
Myself I and Me
Ain’t no mo for free
Mash the gas to the flo
Pass the P
Master P bangin my speakers out the do
I could see vividly
The destination where I go
And where I came from and then some
And I got fouled
Ain’t get no and one
I keep it movin
Scratch the paper till the day is done
I get my grind on
Steel, spark and stone to the dome
Hustle from eyes open to eyes closed
Everyday
(Everyday)
All the time
(All The Time)
Ima grind and go get mine
Cuz we’re livin’ now
We’re breathin now
That’s the only way
Everyday

Erryday
Erryday
T E N N I S H U know what I’m talkin’ bout
I make that heat from RVA get all up in yo mouth
I got you thinkin bout me and my whole entire team
Them city sky scrapers dancin all up in your dreams
Shine way brighter than the brightest light ya ever seen
At the crib flippin through the stacks like a magazine
Hollin Wu-Tang
On the hustle for the cream
On the hustle for the team
From the dark into the light
Til the money gettin right
Spit that flame for yo mind
Droppin bars for the street
Sounding like a fist fight
Hurricane headbang
Snow sleet hail rain
Hustle from eyes open to eyes
(Until my eyes close)
(I)
That’s what I’m gone do
(Gotta giddit)
That’s what I’m gone do
(I)
Even if that means
(Gotta giddit)
I gotta go through you
