Consequence - On My Own lyrics

[Verse 1 - Consequence] At times, I used to wonder Why there's nothing in my wallet Til I accept the faith like Ms. Wallace That life is like Creflo speaking at a college So listen up or you might miss the dollars This is it, I promise Anyhow, I don't get tip-top honors, then At least save my spot at the hip-hop honors And let's be honest: we don't need a lie detector Don't try to make a scene like you was once my investor You never believed so you ain't gotta lie to Dexter But that's exactly where the blame starts Cause they be throwing dirt like Lebron before the game starts But King James couldn't take me off the throne Cause when it comes to rap I do this on my own [Hook - Kid Cudi] I can do it on my own I don't have to listen to your lies (forever) Your lies (forever) I been moving on my own for some time now So I gotta say goodbye (forever) Goodbye (forever) [Verse 2 - Consequence] When you on the road to the riches And you get to where the road stops The people in your life are either Shortcuts or roadblocks But one thing you can count on When you encounter a hater They say waddup now Then talk about you later But if I try to cater and connect Myself to y'all You still will have a hang up Like a disconnected call Trying to please you all is Something I've outgrown Cause when it comes to rap I do this on my own [Hook - Kid Cudi] [Verse 3 - Consequence] The same homies who I thought were my support system Got the nerve to judge me like the court system But what drives me like the valet section Is knowing that the game is so vile and wretched That you can't even let your guard down For a second and that keeps me on my toes Like Ballet lessons. So a school transfer Couldn't get me out my zone So when it comes to rap I do this on my own [Hook - Kid Cudi]
