Wow, no longer fallin' for pump fakes
Empty handshakes and empty words don't hold weight
So stop with all that cappin' that you rap and I pump brakes
I ain't been goin' out, the studio is my fun space
Had to balance the energy, don't fuck up my feng shui
It's okay to be scared for 'em, it's no longer safe for 'em
The elevation is thirty thousand feet, need a clearport
The spot has been cleared for 'em, ain't nobody near to 'em
And I speak in third person just because I'm in rare form
Woah, don't get complacent
I ain't been this hungry since I was rappin' in Rico's basement
Runnin' shit, creasin' Air Forces and tuckin' laces
Seven years later, I'm screamin', "Look how we made it"
Know the ropes or hang yourself with it
The only thing we had was hope, who the fuck am I kiddin'?
There ain't no comfort bein' broke, this is not how we livin'
If anybody wanted smoke, just know you liable to get it
This for my mother, father, brother, sister, cousin, niece, and
Uncles I ain't heard from in a while, the family barely speakin'
Ten deep, just me and my niggas and we tryna leave with
Girls that got a man during the week, but never on the weekends
Damn, I miss my brother -, but that nigga always tweakin'
Hit my line, you got my number, maybe we can find some peace with
Miscommunication and our pride, see, that's the only reason
We can't sit and talk about this life 'cause mine is kinda decent
The disadvantage of a Black kid, I was handed it
Run the streets, comin' home late, mama was panickin'
Prayin' she don't get that phone call and have to answer it
'Cause when the cops tell you, "
Don't move," the challenge is mannequin
Bar for bar, they subpar, don't get involved
You know the type to stay stagnant, never evolve, mm
Never me though, I'm speedin' ahead of y'all
That's why she tellin' me, "Baby, I like it ro—"
Rest in peace ODB
Reflectin' on my life like, "This is what it's supposed to be," uh
Car with enough space in it to go play hide and seek
Stars in the roof, takin' off my shoes so the world touch my feet
Still they sleep
You can take it all away and I still won't feel incomplete
Still in touch with my roots, you know that's never out of reach
See, I don't repeat mistakes because the price you pay is steep
Just like these A&Rs that keep droppin' the ball
They put a ceilin' on my talent, I'm tearin' that shit right off
Not commercial enough, they miss the fact I do it all
See, this is God-given, I breathe life into what I want
Cavalli season the reason that y'all leavin'
Dealt the same hands they were dealt, it's all even
Four minutes straight on this beat, it's all needed
And I hope when this is done, your whole confidence feel depleted
And I just ran into your bitch, she said I'm handsome
It's not for play-play, this is not for the dancers
As for anyone that heard my name and they passed up
Lucky's on the way, now let's see if y'all got some answers
(You ain't got the answers) You really don't
Ayy
Look how I really found my way 'round
Too much on my mind, so there's a whole lot I can say now
This year taught me life is too short, how can I wait 'round?
My father lost his wife the first time I saw him break down
So none of this is promised
She was a pastor in the church, I figured, "Gotta keep her longer"
But who am I to question? I'm only human
I've been fallin' right back to where I started
And my girl just had to leave to figure
Out I've been the problem, ah shit
All these highs and lows, I'm out here on my own
Did you know this is part two of the realest shit I spoke?
And I hope when you hear this that one day it bring you close
To findin' peace you really needed
I've been down, I've been defeated
Now I'm up, stackin' up wins on wins, then I go do it again
Then I repent, all these wrongs I did
Gotta get rid of my sins so I don't trip
I keep to myself, sometimes I just vent
No regrets, soon I'll tell you more when I see you again
