CHIP OFF THE OLD BLOCK

from BLACK SHEEP by Tres Carter

/

lyrics

I’m just a chip off the old block
Young gun can’t stop won't stop
I kick it down if a door locked
We bout to buy back the whole block
I pull up to the boat dock
I step out in the Cole Haan
Client of mine wanna go blonde
Put balayage up in her lob
Speaking of lob, I’d like to thank Mr. ill Logic this beat is hot
The day I heard it drop I say "oh my gosh"
Called up Rock "Can we make it pop?"
He said it’s your time, ticky tock, flow a tricky shot, SC top 10, wait
#1 lesson I learned in biz, can't teach hunger to other men
Naive me saw potential, but they just wanna flex on Insta
Tryna leverage my credentials,
Oh, you got trauma on the mental
Your whole persona’s a rental
I know my drive is influential
But I ain’t nothing you can hitch to
Christ will cover incidentals 'cause He's (perfect)
But see me I’m temperamental
Once I see what you into
I ain’t gone lie, I’m cutting ties
Like Jim and Pam tying the knot
You need to stop get out The Office
Behind this mic, I’m a boss
Sweat and blood what it cost
I'm here to serve not to floss
Having heart is fundamental
Which is something you lack
Go head text the chat,
Tell em Tres is back
Treat instrumentals like lentil
I’m the MJ of parental
My main thang my only thang
That’s what real men be into
