Contagious Lyrics

[00:01.65] I wish that keepin' it real really was contagious
[00:10.00] I wish that keepin' it real really was contagious
[00:13.05] 'Cause I'd be showin' off, always met with fake shit
[00:15.91] But that's what's in my heart, I can never change it
[00:18.57] I just wish that things were reciprocated
[00:22.92] I told my lawyer, "Change the situation"
[00:24.99] Told the judge that I was always fakin'
[00:27.39] But I know what's in my heart and I feel it beggin'
[00:30.22] Told then let go of my boys, that would be amazin'
[00:33.08] Try to blink out every time, I'm hidden in different spaces
[00:36.02] Bought that same LaFerrari, told 'em keep it basic
[00:38.96] Pulled up on them same lil' boys, told 'em let's get to racing
[00:42.01] She don't need to know what it is, I bought my mom the Wagon
[00:45.15] Yeah, keep on dodgin' years, my young nigga waitin'
[00:47.84] I done gave away my Porsche, I throw up
[00:50.00] I don't pass the torch, I pour up
[00:51.16] Syrup, when I'm forced, I ho her
[00:52.75] Out and in and I wreck her core
[00:54.33] I took my finger and I remade the sore
[00:56.55] I wish that keepin' it real really was contagious
[01:00.03] 'Cause I'd be showin' off, always met with fake shit
[01:02.73] But that's what's in my heart, I can never change it
[01:05.60] I just wish that things were reciprocated
[01:09.09] They always told me I'll be goin' places
[01:11.67] Now I'm just surrounded by these different faces
[01:14.51] But all of this applause, yeah, it come with hatred
[01:17.11] I wish that keepin' it real really was contagious
[01:20.69] Yeah, uh
[01:21.87] Yesterday my daughter told me
[01:23.30] "Daddy, you the best," I told her
[01:24.73] "I'm makin' it back tonight
[01:25.86] Baby, pass me that vest"
[01:27.12] I know I'm livin' the fast life
[01:28.51] But I sign niggas and I sign checks
[01:30.35] I put a quarter mil' on my fingers just like Lil Baby, and they all baguettes
[01:33.33] Every week I made four thousand, servin' bags for my big homie
[01:36.12] I know I wasn't doin' it forever but it had moved me up from blowin' it
[01:38.95] Sometimes you gotta take baby steps
[01:40.36] But now you grown and gotta want it
[01:42.09] Everything you doin', wonder every ho you screwin'
[01:44.64] I ball like Harden, Jordan
[01:46.13] I tried to keep my mouth closed
[01:47.75] But I told 'em all the stories
[01:49.18] I had five bitches with me in there lit like Robert Horry
[01:52.17] I told my bitch, "From every strugglin' day, we buyin' the store"
[01:54.97] I wish that keepin' it real really was contagious
[01:58.29] 'Cause I'd be showin' off, always met with fake shit
[02:01.27] But that's what's in my heart, I can never change it
[02:04.15] I just wish that things were reciprocated
[02:07.36] They always told me I'll be goin' places
[02:09.95] Now I'm just surrounded by these different faces
[02:12.77] But all of this applause, yeah, it come with hatred
[02:15.89] I wish that keepin' it real really was contagious
