[Verse]
This is the preamble
To what I got, it's a free sample
He's gettin' hot, you can feel his energy, can't you?
EMcees scramble
Piecing lyrics together
Don't wanna hear it, whatever
You've been permanently canceled
There's a handful of rappers that actually speak
And create a masterpiece, when a track is released
And I am one, born to be a king like a Lion's son
b**h, I never tried to run
So bring on the drama, cause I'm not afraid of dying young
Cause I'ma make use every second until my time is done
I guess I'm back to my cold ways
Struggling everyday, trying not to succumb to old age
Holding on to every moment like "No, stay"
Cause in this life, the speed of light, is still a slow pace
Opportunity windows, open and then close
So in those, moments just react on impulse
So I'ma jump through it, call me the Yes Man
Tryna' be the best rapper, best father, and best friend
Best son, best brother, best cousin and best man
A'int got time for marks, mothaf**as that question
I'm the fresh air, so take a deep breath in
You can't change my path, every star is predestined
The arrows pointed at you, that means that your less than
Y'all all behind my bars, my songs arrest them
I look at these entertainers like "Wow!
This mothaf**a' just made it right? How?"
Cause meanwhile, I'm walking off stages by crowds
Of people saying "How is this man not famous by now?"
I guess its easy to hate, an eMCee when he's great
They wanna see me as fake, for the media's sake
But it a'int easy to recreate, what they need me to make
Cause I can restore hip-hop to it's previous state
This album is like a portrait in a frame
It's important to paint
Sometimes minus the fortune and the fame
In order to get back to what is coursing through the veins
Usually what's important is the pain, and its a shame
That I had to take a break from the game
When I started making a name
And creating some change, but life gets in the way &
Starts weighin', on your brain
But instead of taking the blame
I'll bring Drake in to explain
Like...
[Hook]
Would've came back for you
I just needed time, to do what I had to do
Caught in the life, I can't let it go
Whether that's right, I will never know
Hope that you forgive me, never meant wrong
Tried to be patient, but waited to long
But I would've came back, but I would've came back for you
But I would've came back, would've came
