Worst Day

Race to the paper, it's a derby
Been chasing bags, I started early
Lately they been acting thirsty
No longer can I show them mercy
They couldn't see me on my worst day
We was working, they was lurking now they searching because everything changed
They couldn't see me on my worst day
Never slipping, paid attention, I ain't tripping, cus this all was prearranged
They couldn't see me on my worst day

See they try too much to be involved
If there's an issue, not a problem that's when we resolve
You be complacent, mediocrity I need it all
We not the same, you stay the same we make sure we evolve
And that's why we appalled
They be down for whatever
I stay productive, best believe I be hounding the cheddar
And I only get better, I cannot be ashamed
Coming from where I come from, I can never complain
My mentality changed I rather stand out then fit in
Wasn't giving handouts was risking for the profit
Money maker in my pocket
Broke mentality I just got put on to the stock shit
Ain't a conversation now if money ain't the topic
I ain't slowing down until my family in the tropics
Mom's told me I juggle too much and I need to stop it
Don't worry bout me, I got this

Race to the paper, it's a derby
Been chasing bags, I started early
Lately they been acting thirsty
No longer can I show them mercy
They couldn't see me on my worst day
We was working, they was lurking now they searching because everything changed
They couldn't see me on my worst day
Never slipping, paid attention, I ain't tripping, cus this all was prearranged
They couldn't see me on my worst day

They came with bad intentions, so we changed positions
I go with my suspicions, pardon my condition
Pulled out the composition, nas said it was written
They come with propositions that's just how we living
Nowadays, we just book up venues to cook up
Getting notices and fines for the parking spaces we took up, yea
Adolescent me told them I wouldn't changes
If you know me from back then I promise I ain't the same
They know, we gotta get it fa sho,
Remember when I was broke
Was stealing shit from the store
Been living different it's growth
This shit just gotta work I felt like I was Will Smith
On the pursuit of happiness now that's some real shit
They say that's something that money can't buy
I know the feeling when the price is too high, I would like to reply
I've had too many people try to deny
They think they'll stop me but I'd like them to try

Race to the paper, it's a derby
Been chasing bags, I started early
Lately they been acting thirsty
No longer can I show them mercy
They couldn't see me on my worst day
We was working, they was lurking now they searching because everything changed
They couldn't see me on my worst day
Never slipping, paid attention, I ain't tripping, cus this all was prearranged
They couldn't see me on my worst day
