A Minute

It's been a minute, yeah it's been a minute
The people tell me "keep on dropping" gotta stay consistent (got to)
I've been feeling like the bullshit is too persistent (it has)
But that's no excuse, get your paper up, dismiss it (yup)
This week just found out my pops got arrested (damn)
That's why I'm not resting (nah)
All these rumors nesting
Problems only money could solve I need to get rich (let's go)
Bout to hustle hard, welcome your new competition (hello)
Landlord tryna get me and my pops evicted (what)
We been in this building ever since I existed (no lie)
People in my business, baby mama trippen
All over social media saying I don't visit (what the)
My only daughter, like the fuck is she thinking? (fuck man)
I'm working 7 days in a row for this shit?
Niece's birthday was last week and I missed it
Working 7 days in a row for this shit?

It's been a minute since I've written bout my life now (life now)
It's been a minute since I've held onto the mic now
It's been a minute since I've spit a couple rhymes out (rhymes out)
It's been a minute since I've focused on my vice now (oh)
It's been a minute since I've written bout my life now (life now)
It's been a minute since I've held onto the mic now
It's been a minute since I've spit a couple rhymes out (rhymes out)
It's been a minute since I've focused on my time now (oh)

Feel like I'm drowning and all around me I see: fishes, cut throats, back stabbers; knife in the kitchen (watch out)
All this stress gave birth to my new ambition (yeah)
I'm adaptable call it survival of the fittest
Grandpa had a heart attack idk how I'm feeling (I don't)
Been like two weeks still ain't paid him a visit (I haven't)
I don't wanna die young so my only fear is
I'll live long enough to see myself become a villain
But it's all the same though all I hear are crickets
Tryna collaborate on a song reserve your tickets (mhmm)
But I can't fuck with you notice how your story switches (uh uh)
From what you say and what's really written in your lyrics
Gotta keep it real if you think I'm fucken with this
You're highly mistaken I can't associate with fake shit (can't)
You don't know bout real struggles you don't know bout made men (you don't)
You don't translate your energy why you playing

It's been a minute since I've written bout my life now (life now)
It's been a minute since I've held onto the mic now
It's been a minute since I've spit a couple rhymes out (rhymes out)
It's been a minute since I've focused on my vice now (oh)
It's been a minute since I've written bout my life now (life now)
It's been a minute since I've held onto the mic now
It's been a minute since I've spit a couple rhymes out (rhymes out)
It's been a minute since I've focused on my time now (oh)

Time now, I'm focused on my light (stay focused)
Cuz all this negativity is tryna pick a fight (don't let it)
I'm calm and collected tryna keep my head up high (let's go!)
Make a smart decisions hope I make it through alright (yeah! c'mon! c'mon!)

Alright, alright, I'm focused on the fight (the fight!)
Cuz all this negativity is tryna steal my light (my light!)
I'm calm and collected keep my head up to the sky (you know!)
Making smart decision hope make it through the night
Alright, alright, I'm focused on the fight (focused!)
Cuz all this negativity is tryna steal my light (don't let it!)
I'm calm and collected keep my head up to the sky (sky!)
Making smart decision hope make it through the night

Night, make it through the night
Making smart decisions hope I make it through the night (night)
Night, make it through the night
Making smart decisions hope I make it through the, through the
