"ONE THANG" lyrics from "Age / Sex / Location"
written by Lyndon "F.Y.I." Marshall for Heat Lamp Music (ASCAP)
Chorus:
All I need is one shot / To murder you muthf-ckas / Give me one b-tch
She'll never want another / This my one life / All in / No breaks
Be it / How I see it / In this world of take take / It is what is / No regrets
Why the hell should I explain? / Love the world / F--k the world
We all wanna bang / Give me that one thang/ I need that one thang
Verse 1:
Be that So Cal / Royal / Deeply rooted / Organic lifestyle/ Natural
I see'em all acting / While I'm being actual / You aint vital to the scene
I mean I squint at your background / Rep propped up / Off brands
extra'ed out / I'm flame to these souls / A smoking pistola / Warmed up
on the yatty / Gladly took the baddie down / Estatic to be drafted / Then I trade her the first round / Stitch all clearance no style / They must go / One whiff of coke / Start seeing they nose grow / Pinocchi-hoes / Thirsting / Pulling at purse strings / My gold standard to heavy for'em / Rather slave'em to Sterling / I'm a sole owner / Tend to share / While they hold her / Cooked up a new batch a slap / Your cheeks feel the aroma / I got it covered / You can't fold'em / Put in that work / You know what time it is
Chorus
Verse 2:
I give you the Living Water / For the sons and daughters / That was brought up / Being tanned from the heat of a semi-auto / Learned to keep a cool hand / Amongst these firearms / OG's salute me / Bravo / My team don't take a lost / Mid-City LA / So I'm a familiar with W's / Don't need to be ridiculed / By the miniscule / In interviews / To find out that I'm really cool / While niggas stay feuding / Over finna-do's / I do it like swoosh / The truth on tour / Is pack light / And shop heavy / Clerks rain confetti / When my credit card slide steady / Hit the stage / Then engage in R&R / Spit game / OK / We play / Menage-a-Thots / A bevy thick Bettys / Ready to boop / When I say whoop / You smelling like Vodka juice / The bum shit you on it / What you make in year, man / We pawn it / Imagine how lies feel/ When this is brutally honest
Chorus
Verse 3:
God wrote my life script / Devilish doubters try to block my scenes / Inventing schemes / To extract flavor from the culture / Then give it to vanilla beans / Doesn't add up / To profit / Because that hop sh-t / Is for those / On those rockie roads / With skin blending in chocalate / Real change starts within / Or remain out of pocket / Throw it up to God until my blessings is nauseous / The game took me on a roller coaster ride / And that's why / My legend's colossus / Refuse to make it rain / Unless them panties is sloshing / Don't confuse me with the troublesome / Bubblegum / Rap sh-t / My nig / I'm really popping / This new year / I'm nuclear / Bomb y'all cucarachas / My Black Flag / Rocks hard / In America / I'm at bat / Etta James rose from the grave / To say / The soul is back / At last

"HARD" lyrics from "Age / Sex / Location"
written by Lyndon "F.Y.I." Marshall for Heat Lamp Music (ASCAP)
Chorus:
This sh-t is hard / I toast to success / Done raised that bar/ The city on my line / Had to answer them calls / Lames had to fall back / 'Cause it's just too raw/ This sh-t is hard / Splash on ten / Baby girl on my cloth / This hoe's on fire from the wrath of a god / Got this sh-t is hard
Verse 1:
This is hard as lifers / Up in Rikers / Abused by the night shift / Corrupt COs / Toss gas on your a-- / Grab a match / See your attitude lighten / That's cold sh-t / 60 degrees minus / Hard as life in Oymyakon, Russia / Same as dealing with / Dusty black heads / In the ghetto infested / With no jobs / Violence begins to puss up / Hard to muster / The words to tell your 8 year-old seed / That his biological / Is casper in the streets / And his mom's emotionally scarred / So it's hard to love her constantly / It's hard to be nonchalant / My aim when you logging on / Is for girl's emojis to do the Na Na / Niggas rise to the tape / Like it's sun rays / The tide of my wave / Bigger than a blogger's font / Went from hard grind / To everytime it's comp / Laughing at the baller budget pomp / Hard to swallow them bottles / When the rent's due / It's typical / I make the hard sh-t easy / But for you it's difficult
Chorus
Bridge:
DJ scratches
Verse 2:
This is hard as not having a heart at all / Hard is seeing your momma smoke rocks till her mind disolves / In the bass pipe / Them vampire spirits that live for the night / Cripple ghettos / Then draw blood like phlebotomites / Hard as Romans that clubbed Christ / To kill the light / Hard to listen to n-ggas talk shmurda / But can't kill a mic / Damn ya'll / Rip they tongue out / These b-tches dyke / They flexing stopped / I know you h-es is cramping tight / Period / I'm serious / Show respect / You ain't running sh-t / When I spaz harder than charlie horse / Hard to have strength in numbers / Planned parenting to abort / Hard to believe America loves kids it will deport / Hard to pay attention to Fox News / I can't afford / Still in this world of mess / I bring a message / A star that keeps trekking / My music will teleport / It's spiritual / I make the hard sh-t easy / But for you it's difficult

"NO SHX!" lyrics from "Age / Sex / Location"
written by Lyndon "F.Y.I." Marshall for Heat Lamp Music (ASCAP)
Chorus (performed by Smalls and F.Y.I.)
Opinions is a bad tooth / Everybody smells it / I'm a work of art / God straight nailed it / No eye to eye with doubters / Refuse to see the failures / You can hear it in my voice / I'm top choice with real sh-t / You can hear it in my voice I'm top / Dancehall Sampled Voice / Life's freaky b-tch that'll try to suck me I'll tell ya / But I'm married to the money / We often mate like we British / Kiss my a-- to the critics / Because they don't know sh-t
Verse 1:
Who is you to judge? / Did an uppercut to 16 / Handed roundhouses out / By age 21 / I beat statistics / Seen horrific / That's a hoe holding a grudge / Crabs try to pull me down / By the barrel of a gun / Salty bout my source of power / Can't disconnect my plugs / Regardless mega wattage / Try to stop it / Get slugs to your carcass / Ended up fossilized / At the bottom of the tar pits / Condolences to your boo thang / Caught her sleeping / It's new day / Fired up off the butang / The news say / We savages / Vindicated by God's laws / Still condemned by devil's advocates / Surrounded by the Udays ain't no question nigga / Who's sane? / Rape the people / Birth corruption / The wicked see no blame/ Feel my pain / Even if your blood is less than 1/8th / Radio need my one drop / Bumbaclot / Rush the club or F'em / We doing it the am over breakfast player!
Chorus
Verse 2:
Built them bridges / Paid a toll for my name / To ring in households / For those on that sh-t / Flying off at the mouth / Get a semtex grenade / Stuck to your index today / Hear a sweet serenade / Of a lifeless body with no reflex / That's for any doubters / Baby ni--as / Or you b-tches / I don't see sex / Weak vets / On a tightrope / Rep turned precarious / They fell off by confidence / They died in they arrogance / Because I'm rawer than Ed Murph / You jerks remain hilarious / Funny style / Cut out of getting pu--y / Like cesarian / Told my chick to grab a cucumber / She not a vegetarian / Broken English / Uncle fiending / Struggle of my heritage / You aint a journalist / Just a cracker with a narrative / Pure haters / With nothing hood about'em / Saying they curators / No different then slave traders / Pushing hatred / On my people trying to make it / Give me compliments / And pay me / Thank you
