Prosper

All them times that I did right, y'all had said that I was wrong
I cried so many times at night, so I had to put it in a song
I don't even know what to say, y'all don't know I feel
I ain't scared to say it to ya face, so I'm a just speak that real
How you claim to be in the streets when you ain't ever seen a pill
I was serving straight exos to help my people pay them bills
They say you really gone make it when you reach them heaven gates
Well time need to hurry up cause ain't no food up on my plate
I really got some shit to say but I can't seem to find the time
You're my only piece of paper and I'm running out of lines
I'm steady running out of lines, it keeps shaking down my spine
I can feel the knife in my back, taking away all my rhymes
This shit really hurts, I can feel it in my spleen
Painting me as the bad guy, really trying to make a scene
I thought you was my home boy, been knowing you since I was 15

I should've expected that shit from family
I just should have
It's all good though
Just keep doing me
Shit

The mistake that I had made was putting my trust into y'all
I'm the only nigga that was hustling, y'all niggas just wanted to ball
I couldn't see past your wordplay, that was my only downfall
Y'all know know I fell hard cause my standards for y'all was tall
Always plotting on me, saying that I would never make it
Got tired of seeing y'all face cause I always had to face it
Even seeing you now, shittttt I still wanna break it
But I ain't gone do that cause you gone be shook when I make it
You feel like I'm being heartless but you're only feeling my pain
You don't know what I had to go through just to keep my mind sane
My mind like the World Trade Center and I'm just waiting on the planes
I'm watching my life swirl as you flush it down the grain
Man I just keep smoking, and I've already been dranking
I might be talking with a slur so please excuse my language
I just had to let go of some shit that I felt in my anger
Don't cross that fuckin' line cause with these rhymes, you'll be in danger
I know you're living for the moment and it's the only thing you wanna cherish
But you gotta see thru the bullshit and make they ass perish
I stuck through them hard times, it was starting to feel like marriage
But I let that shit go, In the distance fading in a carriage
Damn
