There be some people that be trying to come in now that used to see me back then and be
like, "Ehh," not really jack me.
You feel me?
I even got people that used to not even like me, that I used to fight sometimes, that be
hitting me up like, "Yo, I wanna make music."
I be liking it because I was like
"Haha! You was a hater before. Now you wanna chill."
"You a dub."
I make them feel how they used to make me feel.
You a dub, man.
That's it.
I was away from New York.
New York be mad, a lot of stuff going on for me.
I was in L.A. I just had like time to think.
You feel me?
If it were ever to get to the situation where I get caught up or something?
Even if my mans was the person like...I'm never gonna rat out my mans.
There was times I didn't have none of that.
So that's why when I rap about it in my songs I rap about it a lot ‘cause now I got it.
I ain't going back no more.
Last year, 2017.
I went to Coachella.
I didn't even get to see people that was performing.
Me and my boys were trying to sneak in Coachella.
But we got to the Revolt Party in the house and all that.
That shit was lit.
I'm not a big Mayweather fan.
I like Mayweather, though.
He undefeated and I feel like I'm young, undefeated too.
You feel me?
The way I met my manager was through Drew Drippy.
That's the person I was with throughout all this.
I was with a lot of people too, but Drew Drippy was the one who really put the word out.
That was like my right hand man.
I went through a lot of stuff with him.
Everything like that that I said was true.
I've watched people get beat up.
I've watched a person get robbed, but what can I do?
And I hate those times.
I don't ever wanna go back to those- I don't ever wanna see things like that, you feel me?
I messed up by putting my phone number on my
Instagram.
So they just go click that call button.
Every time I used to get a call I just be like damn.
It be some people that even used to hate that be giving me calls I be like
"Nah I can't answer at all."
If I put a preview out they be like, "Yo, drop this."
Or they be like, "Hey, this Smooky Margielaa."
I used to talk to some of them sometimes, but then it just started getting like too much.
Okay, back then.
We used to probably get one fit, one sneaker.
We didn't have so much money like that.
So I used to wear like Taxi 12s.
I got those.
They Jordans, they lit, but I wore them everyday.
I remember these jeans, too.
Some black school pants that I used to wear everyday. School pants.
Ripped up, dirty clothes.
It was...
When I think about those days I just be like, "Damn.”
Streets is bad, you feel me?
Getting arrested and not ever coming out is so wack.
Streets do that.
Getting hurt, streets do that.
Always something, always something.
Somebody probably wanna be nice, but just don't know how to do it 'cause they in the
hood so much they don't know how to think it in a nice way.
So they just wanna rub you off wrong.
And then something happen.
Streets is bad.
