Sacrifice

Of course, Of course, Of course, Of course, Of course, Of course, Of course
Damn
You know I do. You know I will. Yet and still
I gotta keep it real, real

I saw we were moving apart but I just let you
Cause ain' make room in my heart before I met you
Them old bones in my closet would upset you
But really they was too far gone and far fetched to
Keep around. So I stayed close to home
And never roamed far
Just like good pets do
Wasn't really groomed so in the end I b*tched you
Just as you hit the door I turned around and kissed you
A crazy pattern, bad ironed and sewed along
Scratching through them patches relaxing, we kept going on
Not knowing that we was sewing wrong
Until that seamen came and it seemed obvious we couldn't grow alone
And the penalty sacrificed thru humility
Jeopardized your fertility exercising ability
A right
Just to think on your own
But either choice ain't really get you where you want (See)

See we can stroll or we could walk light
Get there now or later on tonight
It's some things that you gotta sacrifice in life
You get it right, don't mean you did what you like
So how you living
You think you gone make it baby girl
How bout you homie to see 25 ain't guaranteed in this crazy world
So if you wanna make it there...
You gotta make a sacrifice

Real life contemplated on a bar stool
Soon as I move smooth, they put me in a star hue
But when I move fast, I got no class
Looking in my glass like "Damn man, who are you?"
Sht, Nelly said be number one
So now I'm out here everyday on a lumber run
And recycling no room for a paper waste
A laker chase, tryna make sure my paper place
Number one that is
Stocking on the come up, a mutual fund idea
I used to sun ideas, until the clouds came
Now most of my writtens are about my lost dame
See I changed... somewhere along the lines
Loved me and I loved her was I out my mind
Nah, it's just the roll of the dice... now I'm fucking success
See it was worth the sacrifice, right

See we can stroll or we could walk light
Get there now or later on tonight
It's some things that you gotta sacrifice in life
You get it right, don't mean you did what you like
So how you living
You think you gone make it baby girl
How bout you homie? To see 25 ain't guaranteed in this crazy world
So if you wanna make it there
You gotta make a sacrifice

Now if temptations ya conversation, then what's ya sacrifice?
Plenty ain't living right
Can't worry, just live ya life
Lifetime budget and still ain't spending right
Contemplating that sh*t kept me up on many nights
Guess-that-explains-why, I-never-change-my
Abil-ity to-chase-off any-body-feel-in-me
Am I insane? Nah. It just be killing me
That fucking joy that they instill, don't appeal
When I'm more productive depressed yet and still
These are the chronicles that I give you
Not the pursuit of happiness, yet success so I live thru
A life you call 'a mess', and still you
Try to get close. As if it's not an issue
If it's fate a collision awaits
Can I leave if you stay? Or dictate if you go
It frustrates me to know
That whatever I chose, Ima probably lose
With or without you

See we can stroll or we could walk light
Get there now or later on tonight
It's some things that you gotta sacrifice in life
You get it right, don't mean you did what you like
So how you living
You think you gone make it baby girl
How bout you homie? To see 25 ain't guaranteed in this crazy world
So if you wanna make it there
You gotta make a sacrifice
