[Verse 1]
Can I preach even though I'm a sinner and a cynic?
Skin bleached, can I still move the people with these lyrics?
Spit heat, even though I'm pushing this f**ing civic
Be free, even though I get kicked around by the system
This beat, you gotta know was stolen and never given
Repeat, what you gon' do to the track when you finished?
Just me, who I rep
You won't hear me say sh** about these streets, these streets
Cause I ain't in them, I'm just not
I don't know if I should lie to you, tell you that my brother got shot
My homie slang rock, and I slang co*k
Hit a bad b**h from Bangkok, that only bang co*k
Stop
Cause I ain't in them
Don't mean that them enemies can't get enemas
From heat hotter than cinnabuns
Fresh out the oven, you sweet as cinnabuns
You won't catch any sympathy for your sentiments
I'm a genius, you a simpleton, it's simple, son
Look, this rap game is a mental one
Prescribe medicine as an MC not an MD
Cause what's the point of saving lives if no one's living them?
[Chorus]
See this skin, see these clothes, see that car, see them hoes, You think you know but you don't
See this skin, see these clothes, see that car, see them hoes, You think you know but you don't
You don't know
[Verse 2]
Take it from somebody who had a problem
That only two people knew about till I dropped the album
Used to sip with them jolly ranchers and then get too jolly
Try to start the day early, end up sleeping in for hours
Selling plasma down at the clinic just to get them dollars
Didn't have enough energy to go and get a job, but
Found enough energy to go and see that shady doctor
“I don't know what's wrong with me, doc, I swear, I keep on coughin”
Lucky I almost put myself up in a f**ing coffin
Cause otherwise I probably never would've thought of stopping
Honestly I must have some kind of angel over-watching
Trying to take care of me, give my stupid a** some options
So to my homie in DC that ain't gon' quit his selling
You on the team
Once we get this money, it ain't no question
Until that day, brother, make sure you keep yourself protected
Cause you a G and a survivor, not no f**ing felon
Yeah, and to my cousins down in Indiana
I know this life don't always go exactly how we planned it
Just keep on making money, getting it, I know you'll manage
I love my family so f**ing much I can hardly stand it
I can hardly stand it
[Chorus]
See this skin, see these clothes, see that car, see them hoes, You think you know but you don't
See this skin, see these clothes, see that car, see them hoes, You think you know but you don't
