Downplayed
Don't you ever try to downplay my hustle
Y'all been sittin' 'round talkin' down
While the ones who really want it workin'
Go get you some business or find you a purpose
I'm building a kingdom, expanding my turf
For what it's worth, save our opinion, I
Put my soul in this work
Cause it's all on me, it's all in me
It's safe to say, that my journey cost a bit more than your two pennies
I need leg work
Cause one too many nights, I stayed up in the middle of a mental fight
Tryna get it right, til my hurt
I wanna break bread with my dawg
But we gotta say our prayers first
I'm gone stand on what I said
I'm gone stand on my word
My word
You either wit it or your left in the dust
Age old mindset
Still, I'd rather stand back as a crutch
Stress smoke heavy, still blessed up
While I'm workin' on organizing all these building blocks
Lately my life has been like one big game of tetras
I know you not here for a lecture
But while you're here please get educated
This the celebration of a black man who elevated
Despite the odds, he was captivated by the light
Now he's captivatin'
Saving souls like weight light
Still you messin' with a great white
Never took disrespect too lightly
Still got some ways of the old me
Now the new me just wanna pray witcha
Pray for ya
Break bread witcha
Write these quotes for the bigger picture
You know really this is a ministry, you know
It might come off some type of way, but that's just where I'm from
Don't you ever try to downplay my hustle
Y'all been sittin' 'round talkin' down
While the ones who really want it workin'
Go get you some business or find you a purpose
I'm building a kingdom, expanding my turf
For what it's worth, save our opinion, I
Put my soul in this work
Cause it's all on me, it's all in me
It's safe to say, that my journey costs a bit more than your two pennies
I need leg work
Cause one too many nights, I stayed up in the middle of a mental fight
Tryna get it right, till my hurt
I wanna break bread with my dawg
But we gotta say our prayers first
I'm gone stand on what I said
I'm gone stand on my word
My word
Y'all been sittin' 'round talkin' down
While the ones who really want it workin'
Go get you some business or find you a purpose
I'm building a kingdom, expanding my turf
For what it's worth, save our opinion, I
Put my soul in this work
Cause it's all on me, it's all in me
It's safe to say, that my journey cost a bit more than your two pennies
I need leg work
Cause one too many nights, I stayed up in the middle of a mental fight
Tryna get it right, til my hurt
I wanna break bread with my dawg
But we gotta say our prayers first
I'm gone stand on what I said
I'm gone stand on my word
