[Verse] So glad you took this time to listen, man, I'm more than grateful I dedicate my everything to ya'll, I'm over-faithful In the world where everyone that love you, grow to hate you My motive ain't never to knock you, it's to motivate you Dear momma, I love you and your glow is graceful Notice I had to shout-you-out on something slow and tasteful For my girl, I miss every minute I don't embrace you You better not never leave a nigga, how I'm gonna replace you? To my ballers getting money, thinking dough will make you Chasing them hoes, just get your paper and them hoes will chase you Don't ever mention me with niggas I don't relate to Boy, I'm so driven, if you listening my flow'll take you You heard Los on "Freedom of Speech", I think he going racial Never that I'm just dropping knowledge, tryna flow-icate you So in the midst of your troubles just keep going straight thru You gon' be straight, keep your chin up, don't let opponents break you And I give glory to God because I know what it takes to For him to show a breakthrough you got to show him faith too So I be more than faithful, even though no one's label wants to sign you Unless it's a show that can go on cable Uh, get off my dick hater, quit that old girl shit City on my back, flip it till it some whole world shit Now all the fly ladies screaming: "You go boy" All the backpackers screaming: "We seen you on 2dopeboyz" Damn, no way that Nas ain't sign you yet You ain't pressing the vinyls going viral yet Huh, guess how I spiral that, I can do all things through Christ Homie, you ain't read the bible yet? Now where all my rivals at, lets kick this disrespect off My flow move mountains, and ya'll niggas need to step off Like my step dad when he stepped and I was left off the right track But then I came right back and never stepped off I'm just talking, I ain't even rapping Tell you what, let's pretend this shit ain't even happen I take these niggas for a joke but I ain't even laughing So if I'm reaching for this pound, I ain't even dapping Fuck sleep I ain't even napping This shit was more like poetry but I ain't even snapping If my past couldn't stop me what could? The crown ain't safe in the hood, whats good

Los is remixing Kanye West’s song Devil In A New Dress, but making it about bars instead of a somewhat romantic song about a women as Kanye made.
