[verse 1: Napoleon Da Legend] Fame and wealth music sales dictating whether its felt Carved my lane why the f** should I explain myself Sometimes I blame myself I’m so impatient Gotta provide gotta show and prove there’s people waiting My pops died I moved back slept on my momma couch Got myself together now I wanna my mom a house Moved to Brooklyn got a transfer from my job Friends thought I was crazy I always overlooked the odds I quickly learned about the business and shiestness Brothers sisters acting clickish the divisiveness But I understand why cause snake slither And they all positioning themselves to be the place hitter My girl got a job as a babysitter she held me down Praying everyday like lord please fail me now As I surrender to my fate all I can do is be great playing it safe I ain’t mad [verse 2: Napoleon Da Legend] We all living in our small bubble big fish small puddle We all struggle rather no talk all hustle 24 hours in a day, it’s the same across the board God mode standing the crossroads
The mirror is a lie cause I paint my own reflection I’m a deaf tunnel vision to the top my goals protected Overzealous at time let my pa**ion burst out I quit my job right after manager kirked out Never looked back cause the past is an illusion And The path I choose will the one that craft my future Like an aircraft shooting thru sky Scrutinize and admired thru the fire Regular folk transform to messiahs You courageous moments define ya Ya soul survives ya when you die There’s no the taking the cars in ya garages I wanna do more sharing and less socializing More focus more freedom less over-an*lyzing Life is pain peace pain I want some peace again I got lost now I gotta find the key again No respect no friendship f** you expect Cause first they love you they hate you then they love again Don’t pay the fickle any mind they’ll end up robbing you blind Im a get the bag you can keep the nickels and dimes I’m a stay up never the middle I’m a be fine I’m a do me till the stars to align until then I ain’t mad
