"Prosperity and independence
Bequeathed by your fathers is shared by you not by me
The sunlight that brought life and healing to you
Has brought stripes and death to me
This 4th of July is yours, not mine"
Man get money hella ways, it's just not one way nigga
It's Wednesday but I got bae makin' me Sunday dinner
My niggas rob and drug deal, some grave diggers
He ain't shot shit but talks it, one lame driller (lame)
I know labels don't want it to end this way
But I had to tell them it's Independence Day
'Cause I'm tryna run it up, talkin' endless pay
My coke still sells itself, that's independent yay (yayo)
I'm the real deal, but one independent (I did that)
I guess you can call this Independence Day
New Cartier watch that's frozen and the pendants cray
He died right where he grew up, how did it end this way?
See me chattin' with peers, they ain't got shit to show
But they've been trappin' for years
Free little V Dots, was on a stabbin' career (free 'em)
That came with six like a packet of beers
No drinks, these are actual years
And I know they wanna end us, hopin' prisons where we end up (end)
Put the G-Wagon in an S Plus, then I give your friends dust
Killa on them verses, plus the boss got them hooks
I meet girls and make them realize they got soft spot for crooks
Meanwhile my soft spot, that's gettin' locked and cooked (locked and cooked)
Judge tried throw it, but Mello had dodged the book (dodge)
Bitches call me handsome, they say I got the goods
But if I go broke, I know they'll say I lost my looks
Man get money hella ways, it's just not one way nigga
It's Wednesday but I got bae makin' me Sunday dinner
My niggas rob and drug deal, some grave diggers
He ain't shot shit but talks it, one lame driller (lame)
I know labels don't want it to end this way
But I had to tell them it's Independence Day
'Cause I'm tryna run it up, talkin' endless pay
My coke still sells itself, that's independent yay
Shout out them AGB's, I've been takin' them in (gang)
I thought BA's guns got signal, how he's makin' it ring
OG's still be livin' off some works from years ago (years ago)
But we're some young wild niggas, that don't feel the old
And no I can't be lit alone, gotta watch for the bruddas
These days I lost track, how much watches are floodin'
And lost track of how much guap, that I dropped to my mothers
April, I'm thinkin' what watch to cop for the summer (what watch?)
I get it in then get it dropped to my runner
He's babysittin' no children, he's watchin' the grabba
Teacher said that you'll make money, as a doctor and plumber
But I chose the trap house, now my watches are stunner (stunner)
Never really thought I'd be the type that's born in (born in)
I was on my bike at night, try rip up Michael's organs (his organs)
Now I got a room that's strictly filled with Michael Jordan's (Jordans)
Put my baby mom in Rolex, no Michael Kors's (I did that)
Man get money hella ways, it's just not one way nigga
It's Wednesday but I got bae makin' me Sunday dinner
My niggas rob and drug deal, some grave diggers
He ain't shot shit but talks it, one lame driller
I know labels don't want it to end this way
But I had to tell them it's Independence day
'Cause I'm tryna run it up, talkin' endless pay
My coke still sells itself, that's independent yay

Independence Day - Fredo
