M.I. - Fade lyrics

FADE Vs 1: So I could've got a cla** ring / but I took another path Told my moms I wana do this rap thing And she took another look at me & laughed But then I asked instead of a gold ring You can take the cash & get me like 4 things A filter with a mic & a stand that I still got Hell yeah I got the cable & I will not stop Till I pay it all off / Any loan the government gave me cause I was taught To be about the word that you gave em when you was not In any position to get inside of hip hop So I know that I complain But I'm getting better at looking at everything a different way Appreciate / make a change Attitude is everything / everything isn't pain Hook I know that its cliché for me to say But you only get 1 life / don't let it fade Vs 2: Just because I'm losing / doesn't mean I lost it & it doesn't mean I'll forfeit Doesn't mean I'll ever quit or come up off it The hell if I'ma get up out of this without a portion Maybe run into a little bit of good fortune But if I don't then I'm good / cause its more than allure of a sure thing The foot up in the door & the cover of the source & of course its important But I couldn't keep forcing it Couldn't give it all / now I put a 4th in it Had to fall back before I went insane I was losing control cause I wasn't playing the game And they say I should reevaluate So I did, now I'm cherishing the chase And if this ain't fate then you don't gotta look at me Cause tyler's been on the beats & we finna be Pushing Keyes
