lyrics

(Armond)
I’m tryna build a legacy
Without a leg up
I ain’t get a head start
or a heads up
My daddy he worked hard with all he had
But hard work was all he had
Pave a way without crashing
Escape & establish
Was the goal
To ensure I ain’t grow up like him
Set me up with opportunity
& then instilled the tools in me
Now here I am
Walking that path @ a different pace
With a wife, 3 babies & a bundle on the way
So my goal is that her pregnancy is ecstasy
Keep her away from any situations that could stress the seed
Most definitely
Generational wealth, is the goal
Dollars in your control
God sits in your soul
I want you to value time
Don’t be led by your emotions
Communication is currency
I don’t like to be broke
I'm the first in my bloodline to do this
& I ain’t got a blueprint or two cents
Just loose ends, let’s do this


(Hook)
That’s a different kinda pressure on me
Never let up
I lay it down
Then I get up
Apply the pressure
Never let up
I lay it down
Then I get up

(Tres)
I took shots of my flaws
I was drunk on applause
Hard going through withdrawal
Scars need more than gauze
I’m a husband and a father yet I’ve never seen neither
Self-worth is at odds when I am not achieving
“Can you repeat it,” my mind questions
“What you achieving Tres?”
Sinatra shot me I did it my way
I was worshipping what I made not Yahweh
Hung on pride this could go suicide ways
Looked in the mirror I could kill son
Picked up the tree, still stumped
Devil like you want them pills huh”
Yeah I remember, your heart caught on fire in that cold December
Long winter, no longer a cold nigga
Until police hit ya, let it simmer
Been cooking like Jacob I thank the Lord with him
The pressure cooking you feeling
Is cause stomachs aching and you healing
God dealing hope and every vessel needs fire to hit ‘em
I learn that gem on date night clay spinning
I’m a king amongst kings and we stay winning
Tryna give king black princes tried templates
What’s in it for me? Revision of legacy
Boy, we bout to see
2020, bring out the best of me
Tres Carter, fire, that’s the recipe

(hook)
