Lyrics

[00:08.620] Lets go ya'll
[00:27.910] These people are running off at the mouth
[00:29.630] Tryin to convince me that I'm running on empty
[00:31.880] Tryin to convince themselves that the record with Jay was a fluke
[00:34.720] That the record that I'm makin is a mistake
[00:36.950] and I cant take this
[00:38.410] Lemme tell you where I'm at with this
[00:40.230] You bastards are gonna have to take back that shit
[00:42.630] I'm not plastic and fake
[00:44.40] When I make tracks I take facts and lay them out for the masses
[00:47.110] You assholes are gonna see soon that I'm not playin
[00:49.760] Start askin me the names that I'm not sayin
[00:52.170] But I'm tryin to be bigger than the bickerin
[00:54.350] bigger than the petty name callin
[00:56.110] under the breath talkin
[00:57.540] rumors and labels and categorization
[00:59.910] I'm like a struggling doctor, No patients
[01:02.450] But you can say what you want about me
[01:04.230] keep talkin while I'm walkin away
[01:06.550] You can say what you have to say
[01:08.760] cuz my mind's made up anyway
[01:11.140] I'm taking the high road going above you
[01:13.710] this is the last time that I'm gonna trust you
[01:16.110] You can say what you have to say
[01:18.289] cuz my mind's made up anyway
[01:20.800] all that bullshit you talk might work a lot
[01:23.350] but it's not gonna work today
[01:25.730] You people are running off at the mouth
[01:27.240] Tryin to make me take myself off safety
[01:29.520] Tryin to make my friends turn their backs on the team we built
[01:32.450] buildin up some mistaken information
[01:34.390] and I cant take this
[01:35.920] lemme spell it out plain for you
[01:37.960] angry groups complain about the things we do
[01:40.150] im not changing direction, I'm stepping my game up
[01:42.930] Maintainin my name, the same way I came up
[01:45.680] You're gonna see that I'm not playin
[01:47.390] start asking the names that I'm not sayin
[01:49.800] but im tryin not to mention the names of people
[01:52.150] who wanna sight and attention
[01:53.610] You like the hype but pretendin you're part of the picture wont pass
[01:57.550] You're like a high school dropout, no class
[02:00.60] You can say what you want about me
[02:01.860] keep talkin while i'm walkin away bitch
[02:04.220] You can say what you have to say
[02:06.270] cuz my mind's made up anyway
[02:08.710] I'm taking the high road going above you
[02:11.300] this is the last time that I'm gonna trust you
[02:13.690] You can say what you have to say
[02:16.0] cuz my mind's made up anyway
[02:18.370] all that bullshit you talk might work a lot
[02:20.880] but it's not gonna work today
[02:24.440] Why does it always have to be
[02:26.680] Somebody's always watching me
[02:29.60] All I really need is some room to breathe
[02:33.780] Is anybody out there listening?
[02:36.190] Cuz I cant stand to keep this in
[02:38.630] All I really want, I'll say it again
[02:44.910] You can say what you have to say
[02:47.150] cuz my mind's made up anyway
[02:49.470] I'm taking the high road going above you
[02:52.100] this is the last time that I'm gonna trust you
[02:54.450] You can say what you have to say
[02:56.590] cuz my mind's made up anyway
[02:59.40] all that bullshit you talk might work a lot
[03:01.730] but it's not gonna work today
