LYRICS: you can find me in a drop top Benz With the roof off rollin up with all my friends. cause I been on the grind like Tony and we 24 deep taking shots like Kobe. Momma told me slow down, she know im goin in now. I live a rockstar lifestyle. Never the less I remain the truth, got vvs on my chain to boot Cant settle for less make major moves, I broke em all then I made the rules. go to war with the stars in a Vader suit, every shot I took straight 80 proof. This right here what im made to do, I put it all on the page and I break the booth I risked it all for me to get here, I know they hating on the fact I kept it sincere I had my best year this year, now im riding down the highway bout to switch gears I know they won’t believe till its real, so I keep it 103 I got a fever with the chills. Had these number one albums fo I even got a deal, if I check the bank account ill probably see a couple mill. I know I gotta stay humble in the process, ill still address the fact im from the jungle they forgot that. If they want the smoke then they can come and get in contact, and if not ill keep winning mawfucka this is gods plan. you can find me in a drop top Benz With the roof off rollin up with all my friends. cause I been on the grind like Tony and we 24 deep taking shots like Kobe. Momma told me slow down, she know im goin in now. I live a rockstar lifestyle. way too much I can take for granted, I was blind to the fact they take advantage. I was lost in my thoughts with crazy habits, so I gotta thank god I became established. Fucked in the head my brain is damaged, I close my eyes I paint the canvas. Dealt with the stress and the pain and anguish, now im steppin on stage as the main attraction. Who woulda thought, who woulda known. i can see they in they feelings I got here all alone. Now im on the top, im on the throne. You cant see me wit a pair of binoculars im gone. And its, unfortunate you feel that way. But no matter how you feel im gon still get paid. Im not consumed by the fortune or fame. Cause im aware of the regret and all the torture it brings. Ill just, keep it moving I know what’s true in my heart. Light the weed up play the beat and then all I do is get lost. And im thankful for life now, cause I know it used to be hard. So if I make shit you relate to I know im doin my part. you can find me in a drop top Benz With the roof off rollin up with all my friends. cause I been on the grind like Tony and we 24 deep taking shots like Kobe. Momma told me slow down, she know im goin in now. I live a rockstar lifestyle. you can find me in a drop top Benz With the roof off rollin up with all my friends. cause I been on the grind like Tony and we 24 deep taking shots like Kobe. Momma told me slow down, she know im goin in now. I live a rockstar lifestyle.

Bro Merk been one of the realest and most slept on rappers in the game since he came out. He keeps growing musically and he's finally starting to get the recognition he deserves since he collabed with Tech, Hop, and Game. Word to you Merk keep puttin these beats inna body bag homie 🔥🔥🔥

*STOMPDOWN KILLAS IN THA HOUSEEEE* *MERK EM MERK*

I love seeing people who DESERVE success get success. Keep doing big things merk, the world is yours for the taking. You definitely make shit we can relate to, hell saved my life man.

"It's unfortunate you feel that way but no matter how you feel I'm gon' still get paid". What a line.

I hope he's been taking care of himself. Much love Merk.
