Kay - My Mind And My Pencil lyrics

[Kay Talking] Nah I'm not complaining We could be here all night [Verse 1: Kay] Perfect example how a life could turn vital When a thug n***a in your fam become your idol With no father figure, you're left searching for the one Then you find your real father and you find out he a bum So you thuggin' in these streets hoping for some luck to come Learn that person in your fam did the same sh** you done Or worse, he did the sh** you dream of doing But can't cause all the people that you dream of losing So the person you admire cause he used to let his K spit Is the same n***a telling you ''That life ain't the way kid'' Now I'm thinking like, ''How you gon say this? When 20 years ago, man you did the same sh**!'' Then he tells you ''You're a kid, you don't see the bigger picture I was thuggin, I was broke Now I'm happier and richer! The life I lived I suffered man that sh** gave me hell You follow in my steps you're either dead, or in jail Now continue what you're doing, you'll see for yourself That that glamorization 'bout that sh** is all mental My advice is all I got for you, I really hope it helps'' Now I'm left in this world with my mind and my pencil [Hook: Kay] My Mind and my pencil, I'm left in this world with my mind and my pencil My mind and my pencil, I'm left in this world with my mind and my pencil Huh, My Mind and my pencil, I'm left in this world with my mind and my pencil My mind and my pencil, I'm left in this world with my [Verse 2: Kay] Lizdeli, I know you loved me since you birthed me Now you prolly thinking ''All my son do is hurt me'' But let me say this My behavior is heinous But I don't do it purposely, this sh** is really hurting me The problems that we go through, sure it's mostly I But the minority of them is cause we don't see eye to eye And we won't see eye to eye Ma you gotta understand In this world we differ cause you're a woman I'm a man Here's a reason I rebel Cause I'm prolly sure you wonder Got an appetite for freedom begging you to feed my hunger My word I never lie, when I say it on music I'm blessed with other food, but I guess I'm blind to it So know your only son's intention never was to play you Or cut your wings, I gotta mention, you're my only angel So when I'm not with you, know I cry and I miss you And I write it all down with my mind and my pencil [Hook repeated until fade]
