[Rittz]
Yeah, I went from forgin my report card
Skippin courses with my boys, smokin 'Ports up in the courtyard
Poor choices wasn't goin far
Rappin, hopin doors would open, I was sure to be a born star
I kept my sword sharp
Rhymin when I finally got a deal at 32, I put the pedal to the floorboard
Provin I could score points for the label, playin forward
Steady waitin for the day to play the point guard
Either way I'm still on-board, still on tour
Sixty days and still long gone
Hard to explain the feelin placin on the Billboard charts
Whores rush the tour bus but you're busted, you're nothin but a dildo toy
Objectified, undress when you step inside
And sexy you sat beside the leather, fluorescent lights set the vibe
Never said goodbye, only next in line
This is life, catch a flight, this is my exit sign

[Chorus: Rittz]
When the hard times come wave 'em goodbye
In the end I won, time to take my victory lap
Stand up for me, whistle and clap
It's "Last Call" homie, Rittz'll be back, on the track (put 'em up)
Put your peace signs up, have a good time
It's been one good run, 'bout to take my victory lap
I'm thankin y'all for puttin me on the map
It's "Last Call" homie, I'ma be back, I promise that
Ya-uh-yeah

[Rittz]
Uhh, they say I only rap fast but it's my comfort zone
Before the younger me stumbled on "Thuggish Ruggish Bone"
I'm like a bumblebee buzzin, functionin drunk and stoned
Did a bump a blow and smoked a blunt and went and chugged Patrón
Runnin like I recovered the fumble thrown
Run the wrong way down the field like fuck it go, internal compass broke
No direction comin from a place, you could tell it's safe
Like you left the base and slid into the open home
Like the kid who's eatin lunch alone I don't belong
Rap's redundant, shit no wonder why they hummin country songs
Switchin up, givin up, punctured holes sunk they boat
Throwin in the towel cause when they dug they never struck for gold
Fuck it, search your soul, you could grunt and moan
Like I used to do when you could just adjust your tone
Get the cream, fuck the cone, fuck it
Grow up, it goes up, but no one controls what you want

[Chorus]

[Rittz]
I done been around this country more than I can count
Unfortunate my mind is cloudy, why can't I remember shit?
I done sold some albums, nothin to write home about
I hope that when I'm gone I'll be remembered for my penmanship
I done noticed most of the rappers that I've met
are egotistical but fool you like they got a humble temperament
From the outside lookin in you'd think the game is what it ain't
It ain't the music, it's the money and percentages
Some business shit that you can't comprehend so don't pretend you can
Shootin vids in alley ways, my Timberlands got bids and shit
Up in the tread so bad that they got trashed, they was a Christmas gift
Shit like this reminds me of a time we wasn't privileged
Penny-pinchin wasn't spendin it, so frivolous
So this is for the fans in the beginning, they were listeners
And let me and my music have a chance and I'm appreciative
My mission ain't accomplished but you brought it where it is so

[Chorus]
