I be out there in the street 'cuz I gotta✦ eat
My squad gotta✦ eat, baby✦ mother✦ gotta✦ eat
[VERSE 2]
I ain't tryna✦ go back to livin'✦ gutter✦ man
That's why I'm stackin'✦ this cheese to feed my mother,✦ man
Plus I got a step pop and a little brother,✦ man
And I still gotta✦ take care of my baby✦ mothter, man
Now I'm signed✦ some cats is not actin'✦ right
They be thinkin' I'm stackin'✦ 'cuz I be rappin',✦ right?
When you dead the bread can't bring you back to life
But I got family✦ to feed and they got appetites
So I ain't tryne be ridin'✦ on the bus again✦
Workin'✦ a 9 to 5 that's why I'm husslin'
Got rhymes✦ line for line, man I'm crushin' 'em
This little 9 of mine, man I'm bustin'✦ 'em
I gotta✦ stay on my grind 'cuz I ain't eatin'✦ right
Got bags under✦ my eyes 'cuz I ain't sleepin' right
Even✦ if I ain't beefin'✦ I gotta✦ keep the pipe
You got cake, I'mma✦ eat a slice, nigga!✦

"This little 9 of mine, man I'm bustin' 'em"

① A reference to a 9mm firearm used in street conflict.② A metaphor for his rapping ability or 'bars' which he is 'shooting' or delivering to crush the competition.

"They be thinkin' I'm stackin' 'cuz I be rappin', right?"

① The literal assumption that fame leads to immediate financial accumulation.② A subversion of expectations regarding the 'hungry' hustle vs. the perception of a signed artist.
