[00:11.45] | Last week I had a thought I'm 20 years |
[00:14.12] | Thats old enough to start imagining and plenty fears |
[00:16.85] | Or will I go cause I dont fit in here with any peers |
[00:19.54] | Know theres more to life than smokin weed and drinkin many beers |
[00:22.83] | And partyin but what else to do |
[00:25.25] | When the allure of the fame isn’t helping you |
[00:27.96] | Wish I could tell Jay-Z I see myself in you |
[00:30.22] | I started with a dream and now I'm tryna be wealthy too |
[00:33.65] | But its tough when your balancin it all |
[00:35.85] | And walkin down a tight rope you balance bought to fall |
[00:38.76] | The label's keep tellin me I'm talented and all |
[00:41.16] | But I need another candy girl to really have it all |
[00:44.92] | I'm hungrier than ever for a check |
[00:46.86] | And plus my situations not at all what you'd expect |
[00:49.67] | I work my ass off, I'm always stickin out my neck |
[00:52.17] | Cause they say the real currency ain't cash but respect |
[00:55.79] | But if you have one without the other |
[00:57.95] | That means that you're a stupid motherfucker |
[01:00.50] | I hate bein broke, but havin all the fame |
[01:02.92] | And not havin to deal and have to be the blame |
[01:05.56] | I wanna win bread and bring it home so after all we can live right |
[01:09.37] | And give half of it to mom just to get right |
[01:12.20] | And just to prove to her, I know she wasn't psycho |
[01:14.57] | For always supportin this dream, she was right though |
[01:17.87] | But its tough when life's as stormy as the weather |
[01:20.40] | And her health isn't gettin any better |
[01:22.11] | And everydays a struggle, the most recent trouble was her job |
[01:25.59] | She called me cryin, told me she was layed off, God |
[01:28.86] | But she told me, keep my spirits up high |
[01:31.00] | She workin I'll just keep on pushin aimin for the sky |
[01:33.80] | And people wonder why I spend everyday high |
[01:36.30] | Cause my life isn't how its supposed to be, but I try |
[01:39.88] | Keep feelin that I'm livin life wrong |
[01:42.19] | But then I stop trippin as soon as I hit the bong |
[01:44.91] | I go out to the club, pretend my problems all gone |
[01:47.29] | I see chicks at my shows, know the words to my songs |
[01:50.73] | My new girl told me "G" please promise me |
[01:53.80] | If we gon' be together, you gon' have to give me honesty |
[01:56.49] | And honestly I'm tryin baby listen |
[01:58.42] | But it's bitches everyday that see your spot is where they wanna be |
[02:01.98] | I'm tryna do the best that I can for you |
[02:04.57] | I feel that you deserve that and I care for you |
[02:07.19] | Cause while a groupie might love you when your big |
[02:09.65] | Soon as the fame goes, they ain't there for you real |
[02:12.40] | A rappers girlfriend, bad spot for a wife |
[02:15.18] | And this is just to give a snap shot of my life |
[02:17.94] | For all you haters gossipin and speakin all freely |
[02:20.73] | Feelin like you know me cause you listen to my CD |
[02:23.49] | Because I'm in the lime light, you can go and start |
[02:26.26] | A bunch of fuckin rumors, shit is rippin me apart |
[02:29.40] | On one hand I don’t give a shit, the other one I’m sick of it |
[02:31.78] | This is just to tell you what the business is, this is it |
[02:35.24] | This is it, yea I'm sick of it |
[02:37.68] | See my biggest problem is that I give a shit |
[02:40.32] | If I ain't care I swear I'd probably be fine |
[02:42.85] | But its that, this shit is killin my mind |
[02:46.64] | Damn |
[02:50.62] | And that's real |
[02:54.10] | This is me |
[00:11.45] | Last week I had a thought I' m 20 years |
