Young M.A – Yak Thoughts Lyrics:
[Intro]
Psssh
This ain’t even like sober thoughts, this is like Yak thoughts, man
It’s like really real sh!t right now
Uh
[Verse 1]
Smokin’ and drinkin’, drinkin’ and smokin’
Hopin’ for hope, but I’m hopeless
Too much distractions, I’m losin’ my focus
Too much pain, could barely notice the beauty in things
Too much mental commotion, man
I’m tryna to get back to the way I was
I’m tired of escapin’, I’m tired of the drugs
I be havin’ these relations but hidin’ my love (Damn)
And instead of chasin’, I’m like, “That b!tch is a dub”
Uh, feelin’ the need to keep my heart on freeze
Suffocatin’ my feelings, instead of letting ’em breathe
Knowin’ I’m hurting inside but act like sh!t is a breeze
‘Cause my heart is too hеavy to wear that sh!t on my sleeve
I stand tall, but I sit on that throne likе a Queen
Prayin’ is the only time I ever get on my knees
These n!ggas really afraid of me, this is what I believe (Mm-hmm)
You can hate, but don’t play with me, I keep one with a beam (Grrr)
Paranoid, ever since I seen my brother dead (Damn)
Observin’ n!ggas, yeah, that’s why I’m always one ahead
Try and get these evil thoughts out of my fvcking head
It ain’t normal when you gotta bring your gun to bed, real sh!t
[Bridge]
Damn
I can’t even sleep without it, man
That’s a different type of paranoia, man
You don’t understand that pain, man
That fame, man, that fame, man, listen
We still on timin’, you feel me?
[Verse 2]
Ayy, uh
Told my fans to pray for me because I’m losin’ it (Pray for me)
Ain’t just drinkin’ the Henny now, I’m abusin’ it (Damn)
I don’t even get a buzz because I’m used to it (Damn)
In other words, I feel numb, I’m immune to it
The relationship with my mother ain’t been good lately (Mama)
That’s probably why I’m always fightin’ with my old lady (Yo, mama)
And I’m too thorough to ever let a hoe play me
If I’m loyal and she cheat, I’d probably go crazy (Facts)
Mentally been on my own lately (Huh)
Man, y’all don’t know lately (Huh)
I kinda been out of my zone lately
No shows lately, ain’t been on the road lately (Damn)
Gettin’ high ’cause I’ve been low lately
All this COVID sh!t, I’m over it (Facts)
This new election, I don’t know with it (Mm)
I’m kind of skeptical
But this America, you gotta, hmm
Shut up and go with it
The government, ain’t no controllin’ it, huh?
[Bridge]
Ain’t no controlling that, man
Huh, you just gotta live through it, man
It’s life
You know what I mean?
It’s where we live, man
[Verse 3]
Uh, circle gettin’ smaller, money gettin’ taller
Fvck who you are, I’m judgin’ you by your aura
No doorman, it’s Young M.A who open doors up (Facts)
I built my brand from the floor up (Facts)
Came from the bottom, made some hundreds
Then I doubled my commas (Mm-hmm)
Went from wearin’ white tees, to cashin’ out on designers
But still rock white tees, still humble, I promise (Mm-hmm)
But I’m all about that green like Hennessy and Hpnotiq
Huh, I’m like incredible Hulk when I’m walking (Huh)
If you talk about me when I see you, ain’t no talkin’ (Huh)
I had a heart, then I lost it, I’ve been hurt too often (Damn)
Playing defense with my heart, no more playing offense (Nope)
God first, I can’t let the Devil get to me
I will never change if I keep drinkin’ this Hennessy
But I will never lose, because I know this sh!t was meant for me
And bro I know you’re gone, but I still need you to live for me (I need you)
It’s the realest sh!t I ever wrote
If I don’t say it in my music, you will never know (Never know)
Like this hunnid racks I’m holdin’, I will never fold (Never)
Goin’ back broke, that’s a place I’ll never go (Never)
[Outro]
I’m never goin’
Never go broke again
Can never lose (Can never lose)
Told ’em, “I can never lose” (Told ’em, “I can never lose”)
Told ’em, “I can never lose” (Told ’em, “I can never lose”)
Told ’em, “I can never lose” (Told ’em, “I can never lose”)
Can never lose (Can never lose)
