| [00:05.76] |
Confidence is everything my ***** |
| [00:08.56] |
All you ****** riding waves |
| [00:12.22] |
Feel me? |
| [00:13.48] |
Yeah, yeah |
| [00:15.00] |
I'm taking the fundamental approach when I focus in |
| [00:17.84] |
Dealing with negative folks won't extend |
| [00:19.83] |
Any ambition, I had to seek out a mission |
| [00:21.73] |
I had to sleep in the kitchen when I was hopeless then |
| [00:23.80] |
****** they try to boast I don't fit in |
| [00:25.63] |
Rather than try to cope I wrote with pen |
| [00:27.75] |
Told me to dumb it down, |
| [00:28.81] |
The dumber you done it, the dummies 'll bump it |
| [00:30.42] |
And money will come in until you drown |
| [00:31.83] |
****** steady frown but I'm feasting |
| [00:33.35] |
I don't need a boss or a label to police me |
| [00:35.30] |
I don't need a foe or a loss to increase me |
| [00:37.31] |
Did it for a year then told them to release me |
| [00:39.27] |
That's just the bruises you take when you finally arrive |
| [00:41.76] |
Scraping my checks man I had to survive |
| [00:43.74] |
Suffocating, I suffered waiting, |
| [00:45.19] |
I'm supplicating my income the s**t stung, bottled my pride |
| [00:47.81] |
Follow my conscience |
| [00:48.76] |
I skipped all the nonsense |
| [00:49.91] |
No cosign or sponsor I breathe |
| [00:51.32] |
Hot on my nostrils for every apostle |
| [00:53.18] |
That's 400 waiting to mock as you bleed |
| [00:55.31] |
They don't understand then they wanna pass judgement |
| [00:57.32] |
Rather have spam than a stand with substance |
| [00:59.25] |
***** ****** salivating |
| [01:00.51] |
And celebrating any celebrity |
| [01:01.75] |
Selling them any shine cause they never had a spine |
| [01:03.77] |
Me I got a big mouth, hear me out |
| [01:05.76] |
In fear I would interfere, they steered to clear me out |
| [01:07.75] |
Y'all been living in the big house, I'm here now |
| [01:09.74] |
They burning the slave quarters |
| [01:10.90] |
I'm turning the page forward |
| [01:11.81] |
Raised in the projects, the process |
| [01:13.65] |
Mind numbing, ****** is fine coming |
| [01:15.69] |
To the game with a lot less |
| [01:16.90] |
My guess, they cool with it so I tell them god bless |
| [01:19.89] |
******* with anybody pretending |
| [01:21.25] |
Is really probably the biggest landmine you can find (NO) |
| [01:23.37] |
Trusting a person that you had thought |
| [01:25.46] |
Was deserving is even worse when you gotta sever ties (GO) |
| [01:27.71] |
To the extreme now for someone |
| [01:29.30] |
Who seems down was sorta the theme now (SHOW) |
| [01:31.19] |
Any emotion any devotion |
| [01:32.71] |
That you hoped to receive is a steed |
| [01:34.37] |
That you never shoulda rode |
| [01:35.46] |
Selling you lies cause they fresh outta truth |
| [01:37.20] |
Blaming the tide but that's not no excuse |
| [01:39.15] |
How can you follow a wave |
| [01:40.58] |
And then try to behave |
| [01:41.67] |
Like you didn't look down on it too |
| [01:43.35] |
****** will tell you that something is lame, |
| [01:45.06] |
Wait for like three years and then do the same |
| [01:47.24] |
I just continue in my lane |
| [01:49.05] |
While keeping the mindframe of flaming |
| [01:50.29] |
You ************* who act obtuse |
| [01:52.05] |
All you ****** riding waves (WAVES) |
| [01:56.69] |
Look to me to do the same (SAME) |
| [02:00.79] |
Y'all too busy counting plays (COUNTIN') |
| [02:05.12] |
I'm counting money ***** I'm paid |
| [02:07.68] |
And I don't give a **** for anybody but few |
| [02:09.27] |
I don't say much until they got in my view |
| [02:11.30] |
I don't adhere to any notion of fear |
| [02:13.28] |
I'm revered by the folks who really know what I do, so I flew |
| [02:15.86] |
To a whole 'nother coast and made the most of the bad hand |
| [02:18.21] |
I was dealt until I felt things slip |
| [02:19.77] |
Thought I was ready but I was stalling my heart |
| [02:21.63] |
Is heavy and fallin apart is petty the hate I caught a bevy |
| [02:24.02] |
Let it be said if I shed blood it wasn't in vain, |
| [02:26.21] |
Now they want me to tame myself |
| [02:27.65] |
****** see the life I portray |
| [02:29.31] |
As some sort of a game and for that had to blame myself |
| [02:31.72] |
They see it all as so simple deceiving the tempo |
| [02:34.21] |
There's nothing to prove |
| [02:35.29] |
I just continue with my lane |
| [02:36.78] |
While keeping the mindframe of flaming |
| [02:38.05] |
You ************* who act obtuse |
| [02:39.87] |
All you ****** riding waves (WAVES) |
| [02:45.13] |
Look to me to do the same (SAME) |
| [02:49.13] |
Y'all too busy counting plays (COUNTIN') |
| [02:53.02] |
I'm counting money ***** I'm paid |
| [02:56.52] |
|
