[Verse 1]
I woke up in the state of mind that I was glad to be in
Had mental battles with demons, really had to practice sh** I was preaching
From liquor facing, blunt steaming in and all through [?]
Facing the odds while I'm just trying to break even
sh** is crazy, truth is everybody's going to hurt you
Just got to choose the one's that's worth hurting for
The more problems, the more you earning boy
That's why I do sh** on purpose I know they hate to see
Rumors try breaking me because a great is what I'm aimed to be
I know the real on how these f** n***as do you
Some sh** I keep my ears glued to, know my get back is crucial
sh** that I used to do the maneuver this G stunting
True youngin' that's why I think twice before I do something
Life lessons from the sh** that I noticed
And if I wrote it, nothing's ever watered down or sugar coated
From the soul how I approach it feel the sh** that I'm kicking
It's real wisdom here me out for a minute, just listen
[Hook]
The same n***a 'til the day that I'm gone
And still the same until I'm up with the most high
You tell me that you'll hold me down if you want
Cause I don't need that fake sh** by my side
You say you will but I know that you won't
You dead for me for a n***a through hard times
Therefore I'd rather be on my own
At least I know just how you really feel inside
n***a I know, I know, y'all n***as don't love me
n***a I know, I know, y'all b**hes don't love me
I know
[Verse 2]
Because lately really I've been on some different sh**
Attitude ignorant for old hoes I used to kick it with
Exchange far as intimate while still with your main
Yeah and some change fly realized we ain't vibing the same it's strange
At least for you, cause as for me it's a different story
For hoes I was adoring, that ain't really do nothing for me
Y'all n***as [?] that ain't in my description
Cuffing these birds instead of plucking these pigeons, y'all n***as trippin'
I got better things to focus on, these 100's and open palms
When my career is gone, legacy still be living strong
Lost in these streets, play my part and critique
So when that pen hit that sheet that's me giving you me
Rather provide you with these bars while I adapt to the beat
Than to be behind them bars with sh** attached to my feet
Call it a gift, God power didn't lighten my rifts
And in December hold me down while I'm just writing this sh**
n***as was aiming at my lane but just so happend they missed
That drama lurking still the motive though and stick to the script
Remain focused, blowing something potent a n***a floating
To do my thing, the reason I was chosen
[Hook]
