Tell Me I Cant

Yo world, what's going on?
What's your boy all day every day representin' the six one four, you know what I'm saying? (all day)
And this song goes out to everybody strugglin'
Everybody trying to do something for themselves, you know what I'm sayin'? (yeah)
If anybody ever told you you couldn't do somethin', man, put your middle finger up, (fuck 'em)

You gotta dream, you gotta protect it (protect that shit)
People can't do somethin' themselves they wanna tell you you can't do it
And AK for blessin' me with this beat, real talk
You want somethin'?, go get it period

Since they can't do it just expect the same music shit
They always wanna tell me I can't
But I know that I can and that's what makes me the man
I know that I make a difference with this mic in my hand
Like the mic had a band and we just kickin' solos
And I keep knockin' bonos shorty Feminolo still smokin' on dro

And I ain't got a lead to make music
You wanna cash it out on me 'cause you can't do it
For all the hypocrites gather 'round the roof and I have a sermon
You won't respect what you did in honey
He's a rapper now you dicks my name in same concerts

Fuckin' with them same old bitches, the same projects
I guess you still the same old sucker with no conscience
Dealin' with them same old bustas, them low prospects
My stock is goin' up, I'm takin' on new projects
Look how I got my audience locked in, they know that I'm gone

(They can't help you) Yes-yes-yes-yes, you know that I will ay
They always wanna tell me
They always tryna tell me
They always wanna tell me I can't, I can't, I can't
Don't let 'em tell you, no
Don't let 'em tell you, no

Don't let 'em tell you
Don't ever let 'em tell you
They always wanna tell me
They always tryna tell me
They always wanna tell me I can't

I'm still the same old nigga
Call me Richard Pryor
A little more richer with a lot less priors
Still no line and I spit that fire
Heard the rap games asleep but me I'm not tired
And that's why they want me 'cause my flow inspires
And that cocaine rap went flat like blown tire (blow tires)
They say my words connect to people like phone wires
And I knock the teeth out of a beat like pro fighters

See these days rims are like those P flyers airline
The shoes made you taller, the rim set you higher
The MC would rape me so my flow just went white
Just to listen as the vibe recites us, entice us
Remember when they didn't like us, despite us
Yes, guess that's what made us fighters
Give us all desires, didn't always mess with drugs
Young freedom fighters, no matter what they say
We know one day we light up

(They can't help you) Yes-yes-yes-yes-you know that I will
They always wanna tell me
They always tryna tell me
They always wanna tell me I can't, I can't, I can't
Don't let 'em tell you, no
Don't let 'em tell you, no

Don't let 'em tell you
Don't ever let 'em tell you
They always wanna tell me
They always tryna tell me
They always wanna tell me I can't

I feel a bit offended my nigga I'm goin' through it
You know you keep askin' me about is fuckin' bullshit
Stop askin' me why I choose to quit music
Why don't you try askin' what would stop me from doin' this
Pistol to my test try and stop me from pullin' it
Feeling like the gruelin' tryin' to deal with the stoolin'
This life's got me dreamin' I'm feeling like a foolish kid I'm hungry losing weight
I know that you can see my brains (see my brain)
A little extra skin with my six pack of beer

Uh, I'm thirty now, back then, two-hundred-thirty pounds
Real muscle, a nigga with bad hustle
Always had weed but couldn't afford the customs (dam)
Passed up on women, laughed at but hustlin' still
One day, I might have hoped for my mother
I died for this shit like I'm General Gretchen
And I got this rap game like it's my letter
But you know I'm

(They can't help you) Yes-yes-yes-yes, you know that I will ay
They always wanna tell me
They always tryna tell me
They always wanna tell me I can't, I can't, I can't
Don't let 'em tell you, no
Don't let 'em tell you, no

Don't let 'em tell you
Don't ever let 'em tell you
They always wanna tell me
They always tryna tell me
They always wanna tell me I can't, I can't, I can't

Come still A.K beat
Yo boy O.D all day every day you know what is it's
They never live

Don't ever let 'em tell you (no)
Don't ever let 'em tell you (no)
Don't ever let 'em tell you, you can't, you can't
'Cause you can, you can, you can (uh, uhu)
