About

A reflection on loyalty, betrayal, ambition, and the complicated nature of friendship. It’s about growing alongside people you once considered family, only to discover that not everyone has your best interests at heart. Through misplaced trust and broken friendships, the song explores the importance of staying grounded, learning from the past, and finding peace while pursuing success. At its core, it’s a story about knowing who deserves a place beside you.

Lyrics

Yeah

Chorus

I did it with the gang

I'ma do it with the gang again

We was lovin', killin', smokin' with the gang

We was drinkin' with my closest brothers

Then they turned into my biggest opps

I'm back on the road to them

Yeah, yeah, yeah I'm back on the road again

Back to the basics

Back to the streets where the snakes is

Back to the days where I gave it

Back to the ones who betrayed it

Yeah, I'm talkin' backstabbing

Yeah, my trust was misplaced in

Keepin' friends, it's the hardest part of maintainin'

Verse 2

Yeah, 'cause the money brings them in

And the loyalty keeps 'em there

And the lack of it keeps 'em mad

And the jealousy ain't nothing but sad

Like when you see the kid you once had

And he grown up and he don't even know you're his dad

Yeah, you know I'm 'bout my business

I don't take losses, I take lessons

And I'm blessed and I'm thankful

And my people, they keep me grounded

But my enemies keep me focused

And they hate me 'cause I made it

'Cause my love is what they know is

Chorus

They can't buy it, they can't fake it

But they tried it, yeah, they tried it

Tried to slide with the gang, they can't

Tried to ride with the gang, they can't

'Cause I only ride with my gang

Yeah, I did it with the gang

I'ma do it with the gang again

Verse 3

Yeah, they say they want you 'til they got it

You don't know 'em 'til they plot it

They don't love you 'til you drop it

And they hate you when you rock it

Yeah, they hate me when I brag

'Cause they mad at how I'm livin'

It's a lot to carry on your back

And the weight has been liftin'

Yeah, I just want to be successful

And I just want my kids to be blessed

And I just want some peace and no stress

And I'm just tryna leave 'em impressed

Verse 4

Yeah, I've been on a mission, I don't miss

I've been at the top, I've seen the bottom

I've been loved and hated by the public

I've been praised and ridiculed for music

But this love is what I'm in control of

And I'm keepin' it close to me

I got friends who I'd rather die for

But the enemies keep me honest

Chorus

Yeah, I did it with the gang

I'ma do it with the gang again

We was lovin', killin', smokin' with the gang

We was drinkin' with my closest friends

Then they turned into my biggest enemies

I'm back on the road to them

Outro

Yeah, I'm back, ayy

Yeah, yeah, yeah
