Locksmith - Everything (The Green Box Intro) lyrics

(Verse) AndI was that skinny n***a curly hair Apple of my father's eye Although I was small in size Dreaming on to falling skies Polluted pictured depicting victims that all applies In denial they would often try To compensate for all them lies And I would stay inside playing hide with my nieces Reese's little brother discovered his own thesis Recently got a foot inside of what might've took More than it normally would but I found myself and got off the hook And this is not a f**ing album This is a byproduct of slighted projects and 5 years of n***as doubting This is my opening opus an oath and ode To the hopeless that some revoke Couldn't cope but it's just the souless And I'm soaking up this journey while I'm on it Tryin to see things clearer that mirror was my oponent Potent words pierce a n***a hard, watch it as it flutters Tryin to wash clean inside the gutter (Hook) x2 f** y'all n***as thought this was This ain't what they thought this was More than just that paper see that paper ain't gon stop it cuz Money gon mean everything Me , I just want everything This is for my riders if they feel it, let me know (Verse) And they say, Lock you gotta make some party sh** Rap about money and hoes and all that gaudy sh** You goin over n***as heads they'll never get it Well excuse me for giving my people too much credit Credit me for my own mistakes no escape from them short comings And People pa** judgement like a court summons Something's gotta give as it swells And they say that money don't mean everything But it sure in the f** helps help yourself and just be grateful of Everything that you say you love Everything that I went through I was meant to and I say it cuz Life can be misleading it can even make you sway your budge What do you think the reason why them n***as front and stay in clubs And it's no use from running from yourself player All the j**erly and hoes that ain't gonna help player Say what you want as your heart flutters But careful tryin to climb out of that gutter (Hook) x2 f** y'all n***as thought this was This ain't what they thought this was More than just that paper see that paper ain't gon stop it cuz Money gon mean everything Me , I just want everything This is for my riders if they feel it, let me know Let me know Let me know
