More Talk Than Action
Today's my birthday but it don't feel like it
Just another year of not being where I wanna be
I swear every year is mine then procrastination takes over my mind
I guess next year could be mine, I mean I still got time
But I don't, father time doesn't care what I say
The world's gonna keep spinning like an old DJ
I needed be self centered, that means balance
The things I'm doing now ain't givin' me an allowance naw
Spending time and money on women I see potential in
Just to realize they not hotels, they really inn's
A desire for companionship beyond friendship
But all these ships got me ignoring my boat, barely staying afloat
Yeah, then I plug up the holes again
Then here comes someone else I can see as more than a friend
The lesson ain't change but I'm still making the same mistakes
This path only got curves, I'm not pressing my breaks
Yeah, then I buckle down and refocus
Then write something that can definitely get me noticed
Then get mad at myself cause I know I'm really efficient
I could of been on by now if I just stayed consistent, yeah
Look good in the mirror but self reflection looking bad
Acting like I have a status I ain't never really had
Preaching what I practice but lately I haven't practiced
I guess I'm one of them guys who's more talk than action
I finally, moved out my parents crib and now the rent overpriced
fuck it man I just needed a new chapter of life
seeing the path I chose in her eyes, I know it hurts
I'm sorry mom but I'm not going back to school or church naw
Cause the churches won't grant me immunity
And the schools won't teach me how to fix my community naw
I got my own plan and I really can't let nobody stop it
And if I gotta add more bones, I'll buy a bigger closet
Yeah, nine times outta ten liberation is on my mind
But it's hard cause niggas just wanna play it safe and unwind
Or try and win this team sport playin' solo, you rather solo
No group photos, ah
Or they'll sell you out for a cash out
Some outta desperation others just because they hating but I
Understand it but I definitely don't respect it
If I see a fucking problem, best believe I'm gon correct it
When I, get up, I'ma drop that rope down
I rather see us all win than be the only one with the crown
Pure intentions, bring us back to our former glory
And at this point niggas ain't scared to get fuckin' gory
For Real
Mmm, that's just how I feel
Any less wouldn't be keeping it real
All this talk here is ambition man it's filled with passion
But until then I'm jus a nigga who's more talk than action
Just another year of not being where I wanna be
I swear every year is mine then procrastination takes over my mind
I guess next year could be mine, I mean I still got time
But I don't, father time doesn't care what I say
