[Intro]
sh**'s crazy man
How come, how come it's always the n***as that's unsuccessful, want to tell you what to do or give you advice or some sh**
(L's on the beat)
[Verse 1]
Picture me rapping for pennies
Picture me locking myself in my room
As far as raps I had many, but something was holding me back I a**umed
That you would understand me, but my voice got lost in the fumes
I had to rea**ert and rea**ure myself I'd eventually bloom
Never doubt another man's drive
Never second guess when you forced to survive
Never underestimate or test [?] another person can ascend when they rise
What's your demise? Why would you blatantly comment with latency, doubting me time after time
Why would I listen to rhetoric, someone so hesitant, scared to take charge of their life
f**ing with my homies in the east, had to work hard not to get up in the streets
Had to take initiative and nix the sh** that I always thought was my only way to eat
Only way to speak is to speak with purpose
Heard your opinion, your sh** is worthless
Why would I listen when n***as is losing
I tell them thanks and just keep it moving
[Hook]
How would I listen? Them n***as is snoozing
I heard what you said, I just keep it moving
How would I listen? Them n***as is snoozing
b**h! I just keep it moving
[Verse 2]
I never try to impress
I go to sleep every night, I feel blessed
I got a b**h every city I rest
I could be bragging, but still I digress
I know these n***as is watching my steps
I know they study and follow my game
You keep comparing your struggle to mine
I'm sorry my n***a we are not the same
Y'all want the fame
I want the money and wealth
I want to keep to myself
I want the freedom to be who I am
And not have to copy or be someone else
I want to speak to my n***as with honesty
Honestly I don't see how you can help
f** all the frivolous sh** that they promise me
I'mma keep playing the cards that I'm dealt
[Hook]
How would I listen? Them n***as is snoozing
I heard what you said, I just keep it moving
How would I listen? Them n***as is snoozing
b**h! I just keep it moving
[Outro]
*Laughing*
Man, these n***as man
This sh** just, man, we just, man, this sh** is nothing man
J-just wait 'till y'all get the album man
Holla at branch man
We gonna have fun for now
