[00:10.73] |
All the kids I used to hang with out on Salem |
[00:13.77] |
Tell everybody that I popped off and I left 'em |
[00:16.86] |
They tell they college friends they knew me way before |
[00:19.56] |
But now I never hit 'em back, I'm self-absorbed |
[00:22.64] |
They probably say I only care about the money |
[00:25.39] |
'Cause that's what everybody's thinkin' when you're buzzin' |
[00:28.44] |
They talk about me like I've had it made forever |
[00:31.38] |
Like we didn't sneak in and steal **** together |
[00:34.29] |
Growing up, I still think I had it pretty easy |
[00:37.11] |
But everyone who's rich, I thought they were greedy |
[00:40.22] |
My grandparents had a mansion |
[00:42.43] |
And their son would get his lights cut off |
[00:44.06] |
They never helped at all, that stayed with me |
[00:46.04] |
And Daddy, I don't mean to be so rude |
[00:48.73] |
But I worry 'bout you now, to tell the truth |
[00:51.99] |
So tell them that I'm selfish and I'm stingy |
[00:54.16] |
I'm a money hungry sissy |
[00:55.40] |
But I'm only gon' be rich, for you |
[00:57.87] |
But don't you feel bad, it's okay |
[01:01.62] |
I do it all for you, my friend |
[01:04.47] |
Don't you feel good when it go away |
[01:07.53] |
When it's on me instead |
[01:10.48] |
All eyes on me, all hands on me, all blame on me, yeah |
[01:17.02] |
All rain on me, if the ship just sink, then shame on me |
[01:21.74] |
I got a homie who's a rapper, |
[01:22.97] |
If he's good, it doesn't matter |
[01:24.40] |
Goes to work, I hit the booth |
[01:25.83] |
And then he picks me up right after |
[01:27.39] |
Been kickin' it for years before I had my own career |
[01:30.28] |
**** I was climbin', he was climbin', |
[01:31.77] |
He just took a different ladder |
[01:33.27] |
Just imagine, he's been stagnant |
[01:35.65] |
But now his younger friend blew up |
[01:37.20] |
Like how the **** that happened? |
[01:38.65] |
You think he'd be bitter, actually he's not |
[01:41.42] |
'Cause when his friend is A-list he thinks he gon' be on |
[01:44.42] |
They gon' make it top together, they gon' hit the club together |
[01:47.46] |
They gon' probably sign together, **** the label up together |
[01:50.45] |
They gon' hit the stage together, |
[01:51.79] |
They gon' tour the world together |
[01:53.29] |
They gon' meet some groupie chicks, |
[01:54.76] |
Then break up with their girls together |
[01:56.37] |
I ain't even mad, maybe I would do the same **** |
[01:59.06] |
I look into his eyes and I can see that expectation |
[02:01.93] |
Nah, I can't escape it, that's what I signed to |
[02:04.74] |
So I guess if I'm famous, I'll be famous for you |
[02:07.88] |
But don't you feel bad, it's okay |
[02:11.78] |
I do it all for you, my friend |
[02:14.54] |
Don't you feel good when it go away |
[02:17.77] |
When it's on me instead |
[02:20.73] |
All eyes on me, all hands on me, all blame on me, yeah |
[02:27.33] |
All rain on me, if the ship just sink, then shame on me |
[02:32.13] |
My family is like a team within that home |
[02:34.81] |
But siblings compete together, isn't that so? |
[02:37.85] |
My mama grew up as a middle child in a middle-class home |
[02:41.34] |
They moved out and went on different paths alone |
[02:43.66] |
My two uncles went to college and killed it |
[02:46.32] |
They became the success story, the novel they scripted |
[02:49.38] |
My mama went to college but she dropped out and missed it |
[02:52.27] |
'Cause she was having some new problems |
[02:53.77] |
That she oughta just deal with |
[02:55.36] |
And man, I hate the way she talk like she don't think she a winner |
[02:58.13] |
I study her at the table at these holiday dinners |
[03:01.08] |
My uncles talk about the jobs, but they only ask their sister |
[03:04.34] |
'Bout her soon-to-be-famous son, 'cause wow, he's a killer |
[03:06.91] |
She's so proud, and I can see the pride in her |
[03:10.01] |
And that **** makes me so happy that I could cry with her |
[03:12.91] |
Now she becomes the focus and she deserve it too |
[03:15.82] |
So if I'm a success, I'm a success, for you |
[03:19.14] |
But don't you feel bad, it's okay |
[03:22.13] |
I do it all for you, my friend |
[03:24.94] |
Don't you feel good when it go away |
[03:28.07] |
When it's on me instead |
[03:31.49] |
All eyes on me, all hands on me, all blame on me, yeah |
[03:37.46] |
All rain on me, if the ship just sink, then shame on me |
[03:51.06] |
If the ship just sink, then shame on me |
