[Intro]
The most commonly traveled road to mediocrity, is "being realistic"
Why would you want to be realistic?
What's the point of being realistic?
[Verse 1: J $OUL]
A pool of fire, I'm guilty for ancient priors
Came out with my 2 strikes, just wishing my skin was lighter
Officer this ain't dope, I'm slangin' this sack of hope
They wondering how I'm clean, stay fly like a dove or soap
What you never seen a n***a dress nice and talk better ?
Was you expecting barettas ?
No kings ? No corettas ?
No dreams, just vendettas
Big schemes, to get our letters
Like Ds, I'm skipping cla**
My jeans is full of cash
They frisking all on my pockets, claiming they don't hara**
I'm black, yeah that's a strike
Dark skinned they give me life
My b**h don't wanna me love me, she won't see me in the night
One minute she screaming f** me, then she saying f** me right
I told that b**h if she s** me, I'll be whatever she like
That ain't right, yeah I know, I got too much on my mind
I fell in love with a demon, she just be stuck on my mind
I hope she hear this, I'm feenin', I know she pay me no mind
It's all love, baby girl, you'll see all in due time
But for now I gotta hate you in the midst of rhymes
Like, I don't think about you when my eyes wide shut
And every b**h I'm f**ing, close my eyes I picture us
Life's a contradiction, you happiest when you cry
Cause this world is full pain, you escape it when you die
[Hook x2]
It's a cold world, man I'm about to break a sweat
They say life is what you make it
f**ed that b**h i made a mess
I got too much on my plate
Way too much on my chest
I ain't got no time to waste
Every second is a chance
[Verse 2: J $OUL]
I'm not a hero, I'm really just chasing zeros
I won't be another n***a just steady robbin' dineros
I refuse, you never could fill my shoes
Like Pippen in '93, you Jordan missing the 2
Got visions, now here's the proof
Only time they feeling you, is when your pictures on the news
Suddenly they paying dues
b**hes throwing p**y, ion gotta pick & choose
I'm married to the game, she don't f** with other dudes
I'm really on my sh**, on my sh**, just like a fly
And these b**hes on my dick, on my dick, they wonder why
Homie I don't never trip, like my kicks is always tied
All you n***as paying tithes, same n***as that laughed at me
When I told em I was rapping they would throw they cash at me
Like you need bigger dreams, n***as never make it out
Should've stuck to playing ball, instead you took the longer route
I was skipping in the halls, rehearsing like every bar
My teachers was pushing Ravs, me, I want the foreign cars
I want a push to start, you n***as more pushing carts
You ain't know that pushing keys, could get you behind the bars?
I ain't trying to be a star, I'm sonnin' all of you n***as
Ain't playing no f**ing games, like coach, I'm running you n***as
Bet you gon name by the time the song is finished
My n***as never changed, never changed f** an image
Promise I'm independent, muhf**as hold it down
Catching waves like I'm swimming
These flows could make you drown
And soon I run my town
These dudes is really clowns
They creep without a sound
Wait till, you turn around
And stab you in the back
And kick you when you down
Don't you ever trust that n***a who don't lift you when you down
Don't you trust em, don't you...
