[Verse 1] You remember how they did me up and jail My people was living well, my bills, they gave me hell These ni**as changed, they swore they'd never tell My right ni**as went left, they salt on the snail, but I prevailed, I ducked that fu*kin' chair On death row in a cell, pouring my heart through mail They laughed at me a lot, sh*ttin' on all my fans who bragged on me a lot, it was nasty love I got I had to cry to God, hoping he'd hear my call for freedom Cause I'm all over the nеws, ni**a Momma said, "Boo we straight, we gon be finе" Industry said I wouldn't shake back from doing this time [Chorus] Gotta throw salt Here we go again Got my name in they mouth like some bad ass b*tches Here we go again They tried to throw salt Tried taking me out, with cold words, tried stressing me out Stayed solid 'til the day I got it Look at me now, still talking my talk Man, they tryna throw salt [Verse 2] You gon' be dead before you 18, ni**a This the sh*t the people said so I wouldn't chase dreams, ni**a They always talking negative and I take heed, ni**a Even took my face expressions, mane, and make meme's with 'em Some say I'm lost, well if I'm lost why you ain't tryna find me? Guess I need some fu*kin' mirrors when you walk behind me I lost a couple fake friends cause their heart was slimey A teenager crossed by them, welcome to the 90's Tried to shatter all my greatness, so they blame my violence Tried to X me out the game but I won't go in silence Guess they gon' try to salt my name cause they know I got it Guess they gon' try to stop the plane when I'm flying private Nobody album fu*kin' with me, you trippin', ni**a Mine real, his different, it's no competition I remember we was jumpin' fences Now we choppin' game up with politicians, and these ni**as [Chorus] Gotta throw salt Here we go again Got my name in they mouth like some bad ass b*tches Here we go again They tried to throw salt Tried taking me out, with cold words, tried stressing me out Stayed solid 'til the day I got it Look at me now, still talking my talk Man, they tryna throw salt
