high stakes

Bryson Tiller

Hey, yeah
Haha, I hate to put a time stamp on this, but
It s my birthday
And I m feeling great
I feel great
Yeah, fuck it, I m feeling great
24 today, by the way
Okay

Came a long way
(Yeah, I came a long way)
Ayy, I looked up and said God damn, I came a long way
In the VIP, this shit feel like a showcase
Take me to a place I d rather be, there s no place
I got a pocket full of cash
it s more than I made last year when I was packing
Oh, wait, it been 2 years, I lost track and
No way I m going back, I been in mansions
I been in whips so quick that you lose traction
And made 6-figure transactions
Met a lot of pretty women AKA distractions
And some fuck niggas with subliminal captions
I won t (I won t)
Show these lames no compassion
Wanna play the game, gotta have expansion
Ex sent me an e-mail, came with attachments
And like a fan of the show, nigga, I started snapping

What s happening?
What s happening?
What s happening?
What s happening, oh, what s happening?
Woah, woah, high stakes
got me feeling like I m gambling
(I can ball but lose it all)
Drink got a nigga rambling (like I m talking to myself)
But hear me out

I wake up and see a roof over my head
Used to be the roof of a 04 Audi
that shit used to be my bed
Lot of disrespect from those who used to be my friends
Lot of chicks to replace, hoes used to be friends
I don t fuck with you, what don t you comprehend?
Give a fuck who I offend, real and fake cannot blend
And I pray to God I never lose a cake, amen (Amen)
With the high stakes, I m in
I m in
Even when niggas after me
I still stroll through the city casually
RIP Staten G
Ali gone, that s another tragedy
Oh, my God, who gon show the kids strategy?
I done seen so many things that they gotta see
I made it to the game using honesty
I know my momma proud of me
God tell her she gave birth to a young prodigy

Aye
Aye
Thank you
To the most high
(High up)
(High up)
Praying that them blessings don t stop
I m praying that them blessings don t
Yeah
