A video shot by YG and Hidji World also dropped to coincide with the rapper’s new track. Actress Tasha Smith stars as a therapist in the video as YG unpacks this particular traumatic tale.
“When I was young I got raped, by a bi**h twice my age/ Picked me up from school, took me to hers and got laid/ And since that day I never looked at sh*t the same,” he rapped. “My life is insane, like I’m from Baby Gang/ How I’m ‘posed to change with all the f**ked up sh*t I’ve seen?/ F**ked up, yeah, I know/ F**ked up, and some mo’/ I’m so used to f**king up I got f**ked up at the show/ F**ked up, yeah, I know/ How f**ked up could it go?/ Nipsey left me like how Biggie left Hov.”
As the story continues, the Compton native reveals that the woman in question was allegedly 30 years old when the incident happened. As for YG, he was only a teenager, being 14 years old at the time.
“The bi**h took advantage of me, I ain’t got no trust/ The bi**h took advantage of me, I ain’t get no choice/ At 14 years old, I got my d**k sucked/ At 14 years old, I got my d**ked sucked by a h*e that was 30 years old/ And I never told/ Was dating her niece when this happened, it was hard on my soul,” he spits.
“‘Cause me and her auntie kept f**king fa sho/ Then oh, one day I felt like this was too much/ I knew this wasn’t regular as I grew up/ She told me eat her a**, after that I threw up / Can’t believe I had my face in her butt,” he raps.
