Can't Tell Me Nothing

I don't even like riding through my hometown anymore
Pass through the shit like a ghost town anymore
Lost a lot of classmates to a drug overdose
You all was young and learning habits because you ain't know how to cope
I was naive I was ignorant to the struggles I was shown
Devil working on my family through the fire I done grown
Heard a jack of all trades is a master of none
Now I'm focused on my music and it's all that I got

Baptist Christian tactics they forced on me
Feel like when I call on the lord he hits ignore on me
Daddy binging instead of teaching me how to be a man
No role models because I rarely ever see the fam
Momma's side never knew me because she's fucking petty
Now I got family showing love that never met me
And if they did I was young so I can't recall
How you going to switch up on the fam trying to chase a god

Never been a family man and it ain't my fault
Life's a gamble I'm at the table just playing cards
Deck stacked against me but never fold
I take a L and bounce back like basketball
I ain't want to go to college I am not Asher Roth
Ten years later feeling like I've been slacking off
Pushing thirty I'm getting older with every breath
If I don't make it with music then I don't know what's next

Atychiphobic don't own the moment I'm scared to fail
Been working regular job dreaming of fairytales
Sometimes I feel like I don't know myself very well
And I can't fucking find a peace of mind anywhere
Looking out the glass of the Cobalt smoking doja
Vibing out to my favorite songs
All up in my fucking bag trying to sing along
All up in my feels wondering where I went wrong

I said it is what it is it's going to be what it's going to be
It was what it was we done did what we did
But don't you ever act like you know me
I just do what I do and just be how I be
Sorry for you if you can't fuck with me
But you can't tell me nothing

Inspiration strikes and then I write until I'm burned out
First love broke my heart then she got turned out
Bitches come and go so I ain't stressing the birds now
She talk a good game all I hear is the chirp sound
Slim waist big butt when it poke out
Outside of these bedsheets it isn't going to work out
Good woman or not little momma you've got to swerve out
Sorry for your feelings I'm one of them dudes you heard about

I need love that I don't deserve but these hoes never respect the curve
And fuck around and get hurt then look at me like I got some nerve
I tried to tell you what it was I was not concerned with no commitment
I got bitches on bitches on a hitlist sorry you was next in line
Will my toxic ways withstand the test of time
Nothing personal shawty I do this shit all the time

I'm a broken soul trying to catch a vibe
If you scared go to church that's some bad advice
Tried to see the light it only blinded my sight
I'm living life in the dark of my prime can't seem to get it right
But it's cool I'm looking into how to cope better
Tired of acting like I really don't know better
Angel on my left to my right that's a whole devil
I'm digging deeper than six feet give me four shovels

I said it is what it is it's going to be what it's going to be
It was what it was we done did what we did
But don't you ever act like you know me
I just do what I do and just be how I be
Sorry for you if you can't fuck with me
But you can't tell me nothing
