They talkin' down on my name
Don't let 'em run off with the name
Man I just run with the gang
A$AP boys came with the flame
Gang, gang, they talkin' down on the gang
They wanna rep with the name
But this ain't no regular name
Gang, gang, they tryna run with the name
I might pull up with three K,
But I do not fuck with no Klan
Gang, gang, them boys not flexin' the same
I'm done with adjustin' to fame,
Pull up on your set, leave a stain
Gang, gang, I tell her come fuck with the gang
I tell 'em don't fuck with the gang
It's time to fuck up the whole game
Come fuck with the Mob, shout out to the Lords and the Gods
In love with my bitch 'cause she bi
My ice like the stars
I tell that bitch, "Cover your eyes
'Cause smoking with me, you go blind"
She losin' her mind, we kiss to Frank Ocean and Blonde
Convincin' my bitch to go blonde
Was born in the dark, I can't even open my blinds
On Yams and that's word to my mom
Margiela Mad Man with cases I'm still tryna beat
A bunch of shit from a long time ago
The bigger they are, the harder they fall
Like dominos, nigga, Geronimos
When it's my time to go, adios, vamonos
Flacko no Dominicano but eat the tostones with platanos
Dealing with life and it's highs and lows
I'm just livin' like I'm supposed
I guess it's called livin', shit I suppose
I'm on my live alone, die VLONE
You talk about spending or buyin' clothes
I'm 'bout my business but I'm alone
I still had the vision when I was broke
Fuckin' on bitches and foreign hoes
Flyin' out womens to boring shows,
I pray to God I don't overdose
I put A$AP on my tat, I put New York on the map
I put the gang on the flame, they gon' remember the name
They robbin' boys for the chain
I got Goyard by the sack
I got the boof by the pack
I fucked your boo in her back
Gang, gang, them boys not flexing the same
I'm done with adjusting to fame, pull up on your set, leave a stain
Gang, gang, I tell her come fuck with the gang
I tell 'em don't fuck with the gang
It's time to fuck up the whole game
(Game, game, game, game)
Gang, gang
They tryna front on the gang
They gon' remember my name
True to truth somehow (gang, gang)
But never truly lied at all, then and now
They tryna front on the gang
Truth somehow
Gang, A$AP boys come with the flame
But never truly lied at all, then and now
True to truth somehow
But never truly lied at all, then and now
True to truth somehow
But never truly lied at all, then and now
True to truth somehow
But never truly lied at all, then and now
True to truth somehow
But never truly lied at all, then and now
True to truth somehow
But never truly lied at all, then and now
In my dreams, I'm dying all the time
True to truth somehow
But never truly lied at all, then and now
Then I wake, it's kaleidoscopic mind
But never truly lied at all
But never truly lied at all, then and now
I never meant to hurt you (then and now)
I never meant to lie
In a not-so-cryptic Instagram post with the caption “525”, A$AP Rocky hinted the release date to be May 25th. Long-time friend and collaborator Tyler, the Creator commented on the Rocky’s post: “does this mean may 25th u cryptic *****”, and Pretty Flacko’s reply of “I HATE U” all but confirms that THIS FRIDAY is indeed the real release date.

Following a livestreamed 90-minute performance art piece at Sotheby’s where he performed various tasks inside a glass container - from answering questions to dipping into ice water, Rocky revealed the album artwork for Testing as well as the new album’s features including grime artist Skepta, US rapper Kid Cudi and electronic artist Moby.
In a recent interview Rocky hinted that the album will also have tracks produced by Kanye West and Tyler, the Creator, and fans have speculated a Frank Ocean feature – and since Rocky featured on a remix of Ocean’s ‘Chanel’, this doesn’t seem impossible.
The album comes as a long-awaited follow-up to 2015s At. Long. Last. A$AP and 2013s Long. Live. A$AP, and the 2017 A$AP MOB release Cozy Tapes Vol. 2: Too Cozy.
It’s looking to be a VERY exciting few months for Hip-Hop fans, as Kanye West, Drake, Travis Scott, Nicki Minaj, Nas, BROCKHAMPTON, Jay Rock and Pusha T are ALL set for June release dates. Phew!
