Joe Budden, |
|
J.Garden Let's... |
|
GO [Hook] |
|
A wise man said we all wear a mask |
|
At times keepin it on is too much of a task |
|
Your face on the net, and your life's on blast |
|
It might slip off, you gotta give me a pass |
|
Sometimes |
|
I feel like a mannequin |
|
But how they dress me don't make me the man |
|
I am Not a rose dont hamper him |
|
They just lookin' at the clothes on a mannequin [Verse 1] |
|
Look, look, look |
|
I want the best cars and the best flow |
|
I want the best broads thats how that go |
|
I mean I want to be a star and collect dough |
|
But even if |
|
I had it all it'd be just for show |
|
I want the diamonds to make my neck glow (Yeah) |
|
Lust for the next hoe a love will never let go (Talk to 'em!) |
|
I want to run along from my shortcomings (BUT!) |
|
But I smoke so my breath gonna be short running (OHH!) |
|
I want to be in control, hands on |
|
If I'm the pilot then we will never land wrong (NEVER!) |
|
But I want to have faith, staying strong |
|
Take the first step when |
|
I ain't got a leg to stand on |
|
I got a lot to give but |
|
I want more |
|
With numb thoughts, positive but i'm unsure |
|
On the misplace, getaway and its disarray |
|
And yall don't know the man just what he put on display (OHH!) [Hook] [Verse 2] |
|
I'm too annoyed to cope, tryna make a livin |
|
Given I dont think that being a dope boy is dope |
|
Out of every story, only 2 end in glory |
|
Who am I to think |
|
I'm different than every hustler before me? |
|
If I took my anger, became a gangbanger |
|
I would aim to aim my anger at every stranger |
|
Shawty wanna leave, honestly |
|
I can't blame her |
|
Say the ones you love the most are always in the most danger |
|
I talk a little slower so you have to hear |
|
Dead man walkin, no tatted tears |
|
Or realest to ever do it, cavalier |
|
Hundred thousand dollar car, with rabbit ears |
|
I don't welcome change even if it help 'em gain |
|
Fuck a handout, |
|
I'd rather be self contained |
|
L.V everything, lookin' well arranged |
|
Y'all would never know that |
|
I'm practicing self restrain [Hook] [Verse 3] |
|
I been different, never mind |
|
I'm just indifferent |
|
Ain't an old timer that would blame it on a skin pigment |
|
Is it my imagination or a slim figment? |
|
Or is gent ignant, probably why im indignant |
|
Look at haters like 'why is it an issue?' |
|
Is it because |
|
I'm sober but |
|
I'm on a high they can't get to? |
|
God ?? fightin with his pride and his pitbull |
|
God I was lied as it get to |
|
Cursin' God out "why he decide to pick dude?" |
|
I big bulls but when |
|
I try its abyssmal |
|
Die and keepin everythin inside me a riddle |
|
But they blinded by the condo size and it's sick view |
|
Whys, try and answer the whys |
|
What good is havin eyes when everything you look at you despise? (can anybody hear me?) |
|
Or do you need ears when you dont believe anything you hear? |
|
Maybe it's just something in the air [Hook] |
