U.S.D.A. - I Keep Tellin' Myself lyrics

[Young Jeezy] And Lord knows I, try, to do the right thing With a chrome in the front woulda done the same thing Got my strap co*ked back, adrenaline rush And when the dope fly over mothaf**as got bust To lose everything to 'caine Turn a hundred to a mil, done it all with 'caine Turn a hustle to a label done it all with brains And I told em all down, done it all with change Look him dead in his eyes told him n***a let's get it And the homie in the mirror said, 'n***a I'm wit it' You want it done right, you gotta do it yourself That's what I keep tellin' myself (I keep tellin' myself) [Chorus 2X: Bloodraw] I'ma keep it real til my very last breath That's what I keep tellin' myself (I keep tellin' myself) That's why I stay on my grind cause it's all about the wealth That's what I keep tellin' myself (I keep tellin' myself) [Bloodraw] I'm tryna do it right, I ain't tryna go to jail I'm on my knees every night, I ain't tryna go to hell Tryna live life, I ain't ready to die I got a son who needs me, and I ain't tryna leave Got a clique then n***as love me, wanna see me win Got my family over here, ain't got no friends Me and Slick in the streets, we was waitin' for a rap Sat down with Young Jizzle, got me out the trap Hold my finger to the sky, it's the motto we follow See we live for today and we pray for tomorrow Cryin' so hard and I hope for the best Patience is a virtue, that's what I keep tellin' myself [Chorus 2X] [Slick Pulla] Look past the cameras beyond the glory A new legacy (uh-huh), this is our story I walk with my head high, chest pokin' out Live for the moment, f** bein' stressed out But every corner you turn, the snakes is watchin' I drive right by and play the lane like stoppin' Chill, this the wrong tree you're barkin' up Got my K and my bible, I stay prayed up No pity for you, I'm good with him So no matter how it is, I'm good with him Cause ain't no rules when you playin' for wealth That's what you better tell yourself (That's what I tell myself) [Chorus 3X]
