He sticks to the \u201cosis\u201d bars for a while, switching up his internal rhyme scheme along the way. \u201cBottom line, not the time for bikinis, blinis, mimosas,\u201d he continues before hitting the chorus: \u201cEvery mention is for hood ascension \/ May not be a good man, but got good intention.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>            The song arrives alongside a self-directed music video that finds Ka looking extra-pensive as he roams the bridges, streets, and subway stations of his native New York City.
