Habits & Contradictions

We all spend our lives looking for the truth
Whatever that means to you
Where you are on your journey
For that Peace of mind
Make sure you Read between the lines

Habits, Lies and Contradictions
Self made off my decisions
Round the clock that's repetition
Play the game and your position
Never told a story that was made up
Took a little time to get my weight up
Stayed down till I came up
That's way way up

Step up to plate, I swing
Back against the ropes I been
Oh my what I've seen
The love of the CREAM
Don't change up
Never told a story that was made up
Took a little time to get my weight up
Stayed down till I came up
That's way way up

Too many Contradictions, who got the time to listen?
Flew around the world and back to learn that money's our religion
Know the dollar don't know ourselves
Put It on a pedestal over ya health
Neglect yourself so you can get to wealth
Spend all ya wealth to protect your health
Tomorrow's never promised
Yet it's harder being honest
Complicated never modest
More power to the dollars
Pointing fingers with a dirty hand
Eat a full plate nothing for ya mans
Where I'm from a Mill is a couple grand
Empathize can't understand
Preach that's on Sunday
Kill the game that's on Monday
Success is not a one way
Sharp but let the gun play
Never give a fuck about a problem till It hits you
Gone now they miss you, never fucked with you
Surface level shit, when we got bigger issues
Say you keep It real, truth will offend you
Wish you, see the picture not the wallet size
Who we idolize, also traumatize
Nobody's perfect, still we surprised
Then do the same, only in disguise
Lies told, forgive me for my sins
Also in advance ima do this shit again
Know It ain't personal tomorrow It depends
Sacrifice It all just to win

Habits, lies and contradictions
Self made off my decisions
Round the clock that's repetition
Play the game and your position
Never told a story that was made up
Took a little time to get my weight up
Stayed down till I came up
That's way way up

Step up to the plate, I swing
Back against the ropes I been
Oh my what I've seen
The love of the CREAM
Don't change up
Never told a story that was made up
Took a little time to get my weight up
Stayed down till I came up
That's way way up

On this road you'll face many battles
Hardest of them all is your shadow
At war with each other and at war with ourselves
This modern day, Living in Heaven and Hell
Do you remember who you were before the world told you who you should be?
If you do, consider yourself lucky
