PROM / KING

Saba

[00:00.32]This remind me of before we had insomnia
[00:02.91]Sleepin' peacefully, never needed a pile of drugs
[00:05.96]Everybody was college-bound, no dollar amounts
[00:08.75]In God we trust, senior year my prom ain't had no party bus
[00:11.58]My cousin hit me on Facebook, like "What shorty you takin'?"
[00:14.60]I'm lyin', I'm playin', I'm sayin',
[00:16.26]"I got one to take," and I'm waitin' on her response
[00:18.86]Wrote her a 3 page letter, it's 3 days later,
[00:21.49]Never hit me back, she broke my heart
[00:23.10]So now he IM'ing me s*it like, "Yo' is shorty bad?"
[00:25.96]I pretend not to be depressed, she never wrote me back
[00:28.94]I hit him back like "Yo', well **** her, it's on to the next"
[00:31.89]I wrote that message thinkin' I'm awkward,
[00:33.61]Prolly' would never have ***
[00:35.00]You know in high school, 16 you prolly late
[00:37.53]My cousin hit me back, "Don't trip, bro. I got you a date."
[00:40.62]So he sent me this link to some girl I had never seen
[00:43.38]He said to call and tell her "Walter sent you, you with me."
[00:46.47]I think about it for a minute, like what's his intentions?
[00:49.33]I mean, we never really got along or used to kick it
[00:52.25]In fact, if I remember vividly, he picked on me
[00:54.97]He used to beat me up and take my sneakers every family visit
[00:57.99]I'm skeptical to let her know I'm Walter little cousin
[01:00.79]What if this s*it all a joke, then again, what if it wasn't?
[01:03.76]Would I really risk the chance of me potentially f****n'
[01:06.59]On some stranger daughter
[01:07.70]'Cause I barely know if I can trust him?
[01:09.58]Prolly not
[01:12.30]I finally called her, tell her Walter sent me, "My name Tahj"
[01:15.05]She asked me what's the color scheme that we gon' wear to prom
[01:17.74]I'm actin' like I'm not excited, tryna play it off
[01:20.61]"So what's the car we're takin'?"
[01:22.11]"Worst come worst, my mom can take us"
[01:24.02]I'll call Walter, thank him,
[01:25.11]He said don't trip and just wear black
[01:26.76]He said she cool and they go back,
[01:28.20]If any problems, send him back
[01:29.49]I never had to, but now we're in tune
[01:32.51]He Facebook messaged me like, "Sorry not to be a nuisance..."
[01:35.77]But he like 30 dollars short on all his prom suit s*it
[01:38.58]I'm like, "I got you, cuz. That's the least that I can do."
[01:41.19]He tell me send him the addy and he'll slide after school
[01:44.15]I'm like, "Ok, bet," never knew where he stayed at
[01:46.78]He walked down the street, hella surprised,
[01:48.57]"This where y'all place at?"
[01:49.70]Uncle Carl, Auntie Deborah, my cousin Rena
[01:52.47]And I'm surprised too, my family knew, kept this a secret
[01:55.53]Me and cuz stay down the street, living different lives
[01:58.80]Everyday he on the bus, me, I get a ride
[02:01.55]I gave him 30 on the porch, he never went inside
[02:04.46]He tell me, "Thank you," then he walked back home with a smile
[02:07.38]He tryna hide it, but I see his dimple
[02:09.54]I'm thinkin', "Damn, that transaction was simple"
[02:11.74]I'm talking s*it, I know he hoop,
[02:13.13]I'm like, "Aye, where the rim, bro?"
[02:14.88]He like, "Tomorrow, if you free,
[02:16.17]You prolly weak as s*it, tho."
[02:17.62]I know my brother not
[02:18.65]So all 3 of us went to the park
[02:20.22]And ran some ****** off the court
[02:21.66]I'm hella passive, I was passin',
[02:23.56]I ain't have to score
[02:24.70]The next day the prom, I couldn't sleep, I stayed up
[02:27.67]My granddad gave me a condom then walked away, didn't say nothin'
[02:30.69]She hopped out of her car and said that her name was Jada
[02:33.33]My heart's racin', I'm focused, I'm tryna keep it playa
[02:36.22]Gave her the croissant, or corsage
[02:38.01]Or whatever the **** my mom handed me
[02:40.01]And said, "Now put it on her hand, Malik", family ties
[02:43.33]My grandfather taught me how to tie up a tie
[02:45.98]'Cause my dad lived in NY
[02:47.62]That's prolly why I was shy, so self-conscious
[02:50.43]Took pictures on the porch,
[02:51.78]And then we headed for the prom and
[02:53.35]Walter went on prom the same day, but to a different place
[02:56.58]So he text me like, "Cuz, this the spot.
[02:58.58]Let's meet up later
[02:59.49]And bring Jada through," prom flashed, I kept it cool
[03:02.30]We show up to the function where she brought a change of clothes
[03:05.18]I'm lookin' around like, "Damn, I don't know nobody"
[03:07.99]We at this party out West and Jada left to get dressed
[03:11.16]I'm fakin' like I'm sendin' text
[03:12.63]Some stranger get really close,
[03:13.99]I swear that I hear his breath
[03:15.50]Then he put a knife to my neck
[03:16.82]Gave me the run down like, "Jada my sister
[03:18.89]And if you hit her, **** her,
[03:20.09]Make her miss ya, I'ma kill ya!"
[03:22.59]At this point, I'm just exhausted
[03:24.35]Wonderin' where the ****'s Walter
[03:25.53]He shows up like 30 minutes after our altercation
[03:28.19]I never mentioned it to him, he kinda overprotective
[03:31.41]And I know if I tell him,
[03:32.66]That he'll beat this *****'s skull in
[03:34.41]Turn his body a skeleton, and our night'll end terrible
[03:37.24]I exhale and say, "**** it", and I just chose to let it go
[03:40.00]Said you're used to getting everything your way
[03:42.78]This not how that happens this time,
[03:44.25]Just gotta **** with your boy?
[03:45.82]Walt went to St. Louis, had a full ride for his hoopin'
[03:48.03]Him and his coach got into it,
[03:49.35]Now he back home doin' music, aye
[03:51.24]I was at Columbia, a damn near straight A student
[03:53.95]I had one B in a hip-hop class,
[03:55.41]I thought that s*it was stupid
[03:56.72]He transferred to Robert Morris, always living down the street
[03:59.51]My class let out at 2:40 and his class let out at 3
[04:02.42]Mama asked me where the hell I been and where the hell I be
[04:05.23]"I'm with Walter, mom, I'm safe" I keep walkin' in here late
[04:08.07]I might fall off in your bae, I get girls now, I get laid
[04:10.97]I get caught up followin' Walter, I'm a product of my age
[04:13.92]He talk to erry' girl in downtown Chicago
[04:15.74]Wingman, I cannot fly though
[04:17.28]He was in Cal with Impala, he was that ***** in the party
[04:20.15]Awfully popular for someone that they barely mention
[04:23.11]Plus we from the part of city that they barely mention
[04:26.00]Just logged into Twitter
[04:27.22]And somehow we was barely mentioned
[04:28.99]We signed our names on the open mic list
[04:31.20]And then they skipped us
[04:32.16]And then they skipped us again like a week later
[04:34.37]Like, obviously this f****n' host can't read the paper
[04:37.18]Hella' intimidatin', the big guy didn't have to flex
[04:40.52]So Walter walked to the host and said,
[04:42.06]"This the name you callin' next"
[04:43.33]Bullied our way to the stage and then overstayed our welcome
[04:46.59]An apple never get too far from the tree that it fell from
[04:49.32]Just like my father tryna do music and hope I make it
[04:52.06]Walter joined me for the journey said the city waitin'
[04:55.04]PIVOT
[05:04.98]Walter invincible, dodged death like a mad magician
[05:09.41]More times than a mathematician
[05:10.76]I'm in LA workin' on Bucket List Project,
[05:13.24]I get a call and get a fishy feeling
[05:14.95]Normally Walt joke on the phone, this time he over serious
[05:18.22]My heart droppin', I'm like, "Yo, what is it?!"
[05:20.24]He say he with T.Y on the highway
[05:22.19]And some ****** just tried to kill him
[05:23.83]Emptied the clip on the car,
[05:25.17]But somehow they didn't hit him
[05:26.72]Sometimes I f****n' hate Chicago, 'cause I hate this feelin'
[05:29.75]Innocent ****** get shot at, in the broad day, the A.M
[05:32.61]I asked him for a play-by-play of how their whole day went
[05:35.35]He said he went to XSport, and they ran a full court
[05:38.11]And I can not retort without
[05:39.48]Thinkin' that this can't be the reason
[05:41.03]"So what else you do? What about Ty? Is he still cool?
[05:43.82]Where were you on your way from,
[05:45.20]And where you on your way to?"
[05:46.32]He say he just left for dinner at a friend crib, and that's it
[05:49.26]He say "Ty don't do s*it but smoke, honestly Saba, that's it"
[05:52.18]Give him sympathy, another case of mistaken identity
[05:55.17]The news prolly' gon' run this,
[05:56.78]As two gangs from different streets
[05:58.35]Police questionin' him like he just shot at a trooper
[06:00.86]My boy walked away unharmed, and we did Lollapalooza, yeah
[06:04.19]6 months pass by, everyday we celebrate, everyday a better day
[06:07.39]I just dropped Bucket List, Walter 'bout to drop a tape
[06:09.75]Everything goin' perfect, couldn't paint a better way
[06:11.89]PIVOT gang is on the way, we just sold out Lincoln Hall
[06:14.35]Then I went to talk to Sway
[06:15.47]I got back home and got back on it,
[06:16.98]'Cause Walter was doin' tour dates
[06:18.39]Sendin' me links to songs that he made, Kid Cudi,
[06:20.27]We are not ridin' no waves, aye
[06:21.72]Grandma made us blanket plates,
[06:22.98]We played 2K, that's just a day before
[06:24.34]Fatimah got a show tomorrow, he text me, "Aye, we in that hoe"
[06:27.33]I went to the barbershop, the first thing the next mornin'
[06:30.07]Then I got up with Legit, we supposed to do some recordin'
[06:32.81]10 minutes into this session, I got a call from a number
[06:35.74]That I don't got saved, but I answer anyways
[06:38.53]She says, "Hello, Malik, have you or Squeak
[06:42.08]Talked to my son today? He was just on the train."
[06:44.79]We got in the car, but we didn't know where to drive to
[06:47.62]**** it, wherever you are my *****, we'll come and find you
[07:00.14]Just another day in the ghetto
[07:03.88]Oh, the streets bring sorrow
[07:07.03]Can't get out today with their schedule
[07:09.90]I just hope I make it 'til tomorrow
[07:12.23]I just hope I make it 'til tomorrow
[07:14.29]I just hope I make it 'til tomorrow
[07:16.19]I just hope I make it 'til tomorrow
[07:18.16]I just hope I make it 'til tomorrow
[07:20.21]I just hope I make it 'til tomorrow
