[Intro:]
Yo Saafir what's goin' on playboy?
[Saafir:] What's really goin' on?


Huh, you tell me baby.


[Saafir:] Hey, it's like this man.
I gotta let these mother$#&@ers know how to crawl man.


I know everybody tryin' to come up immediately.

[Saafir:] You know they don't got the mother$#&@in' perseverance cause they

ain't have it hold up though. I gotta go and do this man.

[Verse 1:]

You can hear the ambition mobbin' in my po position
The intention is to come up
Do your grindin' pay the boss before you floss

And don't lose your mind and find discipline'
And stackin' your scratch
So it don't come up missin' in

As you're askin' the Lord for guidance
While you ridin'
Stickin' and movin' slidin'

In and out the game
Unless you realize you're sprung before you legalize your funds
All you track hustlers that was made for the corner

Dodgin' the coroner's office
I'm tossin' this at you
Now on some sermon type %#@!

I'm burnin' and I gotta write this
The mic got me ballin'
Shot callin'

It's the murk one like that
Sit back but not in starship
So I don't tarnish or rust

When I'm bustin' on the next jerk
Who swears he's ballin' but can't network
You better off with sexwork

The way you $#&@ed in the game
It's a shame
I'm aimin' at the bathroom stall on all of y'all

With the H.J.s deflecting these hate rays
Until the sun falls
You acquired a dream

Crawl before you ball

[Hook: x2]

What you thought?
You was just gonna ball on the spot?
Let's be real

You gotta stack dollar bills before you get a mil
Gotta handle business before you choose to chill or you fall
Crawl before you ball


[Verse 2:]
All you pompous $$# marks in Babylon yawnin'

Becomin' another ^!$$% spawnin'
From the trenches
The stench is unknown

I've been crawlin' like a two toed
Chameleon for so long
Writing these songs and ridin' these thongs

With bracelets on they ankle bone
That's anxious to moan
Like Neena Samone

Have a trick
Sickin' thinkin'
That we know it's on

You better crawl before you ball man
Before you fall man
Keep ya hoes off your payroll

Unless they crawl with you
And you know they all with you
And even then they won't fall with you

I'm like $#&@ 'em
I got to
It's a new sheriff in town his name is Reggie Mamoo
Ya hear?
More like Saafir

On a crawl
By watch how daddy ball
I'm all ears and all eyes
Recognize
I'm crawlin'


[Bridge: x2]
Baby baby let me kick my all to y'all
You gotta crawl before you ball
I've seen so many many soldiers fall

They didn't know you had to crawl before you ball

[Verse 3:]
You see gotta put in major work in at first
Before you burst

Crawl before you ball but never lose your thirst
When you ballin'
Or you gonna end up broke and butt naked with no garments on
While I'm makin' more cheese than Parmesian
Learn game at a fast rate
Apply it to my walk then stalk

I won't fall off cause I'm a put in that work
And I'm a stick to that plan
Now I'm a stay down with my folleys
The team then turn and brace God gave green
Going, going till I'm gone
I'm ballin'


[Hook]
