[Intro: Ab-Soul]
Ayy, Ali
I can hear myself good now
It's good now
Finally
(Soulo!)
[Hook: SZA]
Guess that's how it is these days
You even lose when you win these days
These days, God's reign (Yeah)
Scared to live, scared to move these days
[Verse 1: Ab-Soul]
Your soul sits on your third eye, Soul sits on the throne
Told you I was the third wheel
That's three-wheel motion on chrome (West side)
Threes up, threes up, all around the world (World)
We ain't shooting no jump shots, but we balling, we balling
I'm from where they get jumped or shot
'Til they falling, they falling
They ain't heard one word from God
But He calling, He calling (Hello?)
I ain't never had a whole rack 'til I was 24 years old
At 25, I spent a hundred of those
And still ain't got nothing to show
Ugh, I guess that's how it is these days
Ugh, I guess it's how it goes
'Cause this world is dark and my locs is on, but I ain't afraid
ABC everything, every M you end up with is owed
And that's simple math, had to balance the good and bad
No masters, but a mastermind, master kush up in my bag
Soulo in the backseat, in a thing with some tints on it
With a thang with some tits on her
And every nigga in this bitch own her
Soul!
[Hook: SZA]
Guess that's how it is these days
You even lose when you win these days
These days, God's reign
Scared to live, scared to move these days
[Bridge: SZA]
These days, in chains
You even lose when you win these days
These days, God's reign
Scared to live, scared to live these days
[Verse 2: Ab-Soul & SZA]
Fuck...
My girl died and I lost my mind
I'm off everything except heroin
Blame God, don't blame her
All I did was take gangsters to church
Got your lady with literature in her Louis bag
Got your kid studying outside of class
Every project that I dropped, she bought 'em
So now she read more than she Red Bottom (Ugh!)
Ab-Soul, abstract, asshole, I'm with the shit
I say "Cuz" around Bloods and I say "Blood" around Crips
I'm twisted (On my word, though)
Got Mary, got Lucy, got Molly
That's wifey, girlfriend and mistress
Ain't no going against me, man
Make another plan, pop a Xan, forget it
Hahahah, that's how it is these days (Ho-oh!)
Yeah, that's how it goes (Ayy-ayy)
'Cause we ain't choose this life; it chose us
So don't show hate 'cause she chose us
I'm just stacking paper; get yours up
Lil' nigga, finish your chores up
That's my word, I got shows booked
Got that purp, I pour fours up
Stole the show, this a hold-up (Hold-up, hold-up)
H–Hold up, Soulo, ho, there is only uno, puto
Ugh, Top Dawg out of this world, Pluto on Pluto, you know
[Hook: SZA]
Guess that's how it is these days
You even lose when you win these days
These days, God's reign
Scared to live, scared to move these days
[Bridge: SZA]
These days, in chains
You even lose when you win these days
These days, God's reign
Scared to live, scared to live these days
[Interlude: Ab-Soul]
More than a man, I been died and rose again
Left these holes in my hand, so you know who I am
More than a man, I been died and rose again
Left these holes in my hand, so you know who I am
[Outro: Isaiah Rashad]
God's reign, "These Days"
Ay (coughing)
Ay, y'all got some more trees?
