This is why I do this shit.
I think they call this, um, venting.
This is me.
Still the same.
They want the hits.
I play the game.
No auto tune, but you can feel the pain.
It all comes spilling out like i hit a vein.
What up lil braw, what up slum Vil’
I hope you know that yall the reason i have fun still
The fans thinking that we all signed for one meal
Equal opportunities rapping, that shit is unreal.
That aint how it works, that aint that how it goes,
And I been getting high to balance out the lows.
And I could use a writer just to balance my flows.
But I never share my thoughts, this is all a nigga knows.
And every time I try, it opens up my eyes
These verses are a chance to remembered and reprised.
And I would be performing just as long as Im alive.
So every word I utter will be mine.
[Chorus]
Don’t believe the lies.
Look me in my eyes.
Please don’t be scared of me.
Please don’t be scared of me.
I remember you.
This feeling isn’t new.
So please don’t be scared of me.
Please don’t be scared of me.
Oh oh oh oh oh uhh.
Dont take the this the wrong way but um..
I never cried when Pac died.
But I probably will when Hov does.
And if my tears hold value, then i would drop one for every single thing he showed us.
And Ill be standing in a puddle.
I stay away from niggas that could land me in some trouble.
And im a keep it honest.
Am so tired of being subtle
Its just me, 40, O, and Neeks standing in a huddle.
Staring at the members of my team
Who get questioned about they profit from this 40 million dollar scheme.
Just know that am in debt for you defending all our dreams.
I hope you tell your family this shit aint what it seems.
But yall the reason for a lot of my devotion.
You know I spend money because spending time is hopeless.
And know I pop bottles cuz i bottle my emotions.
At least I put it all in the open.
[Chorus]
Look.
Fuck all yall.
We ignore villains here.
Premature millionaires.
Welcome to my realest year.
Yeah.
I swear we making a killa here.
I should be on top of the world here just chillin here.
Uh.
But its funny having fans.
Who find you before anybody ever has the chance, and build you up so you could be the biggest in the game.
And realize when your there, sometimes the shit don’t feel the same.
Yeah.
And plus things are just surreal at home
People think Ive changed just because my appeal has grown
And now security follow me everywhere so im never actually am alone, i just always feel alone.
I think im scared of what the future holds.
I was wishing for some things and now am used to those.
Every girl I meet thinks im fucking groupie hoes.
The honesty of my music has left me too exposed.
All my old friends think i got a new crowd.
And people seem to notice every time I do smile.
I guess that mean they come few and far between.
Even though am living out what you would call the dream.
Yeah,
And my uncle aint even messaging me.
And him missing in my life is kind of messing with me.
I hope this isn’t one of those forever things.
Its funny how money can change everything.
[Chorus]
fin.
self explanatory right?
