Period

Time flies ya friends change
Pick a side Jay or Dame
Ain't a diss that's the game
Different perceptions will end the reign
Do it for the bag not the fame
Niggas sold they soul to sell cane
Ain't no noose around my brain
A nigga and a king ain't the same
Yea we walk in different lanes
Can't be impressed by no chains
Diamonds can't bring about the rain
Diamonds can't suppress the pain
In the midst of a drought forget the vain
Vanity will make you lose your sanity
I told the truth and they mad at me
Lets grind fuck a salary
Teaching moment take a step inside my faculty
In the back of weak a chick will put a battery
Ya she'll do it through some flattery
Most these dudes ain't half of me
Believed the lies it was sad to see
When lies become a truth what a masterpiece
Losing fakes ain't a tragedy
They all turned they back on me
But I was made for the battle be
Tryna kill a king be prepared to count your casualties ya

They tried to bury me alive
Fuck nigga I survived
Left me in a ditch thought I died
But death couldn't take me on that ride
Maya Angelou still I rise
To get rich I had to put aside my pride
Thought my dawgs would never slide
But when the chance came they chose the other side
Evil tapped into they weakness
A lot of shit was said but they was reaching
Wasn't perfect but my friendship was decent
But with them they could never see me eating
Hard lessons and missed blessing
Many days I was stressing
What to eat was the least of my questions
Hungry but I could miss a meal to catch a blessing
Dedicated and most hated through many phases
My bitch I inseminated
She tryna kill me off in regulation
But I'm working over time to see her devastated
On success yea I meditated
From the bottom yea I elevated
Took the stairs boy barely made it
Plant the seed boy we never chasing
My ambitions yea it barely fading
