Stay True
Everything that I do I do it as an investment
Lord blessed me with a brain so I'ma use it as a weapon
Comin' from a family tree of Drug Dealer's and Felons
That's not the life for me 'cause the streets will leave you headless
I'm out here playin' chess while them dudes be playin' checkers
They worried about the next man, I'm focused on the cheddar
While they riskin' all them years, I'm tryna make mines betta'
'Cause I've seen what it brings, 25 with that letta'
Or they end up in a box when karma catch up wit' em
Gotta keep the grass cut to catch a snake when it slithers
If you can't look me in the eyes and acknowledge my presence
Then you a hater in disguise that needs plenty of distance
I refuse to waste my time when the clock is steady tickin'
So long as I'm alive I make the best of what I'm given
People think that they know me but only just see the surface
But never diving deep to really see what's really lurking
Always staying true to myself, and that's for certain (Yeah)
Never sell my soul for the acceptance of a person (No)
Me I never lose
If I'm not winnin' then I'm learnin' (Learnin')
Not the type to complain
'Cause I was raised to put the work in (Work)
Always staying true to myself, and that's for certain (Yeah)
Never sell my soul for the acceptance of a person (No)
Me I never lose
If I'm not winnin' then I'm learnin' (Learnin')
Not the type to complain
'Cause I was raised to put the work in (Work)
The struggle made me humble
That's why, I always hustle
To be in a position to be winnin' livin' lovely
It's not about the money
It's about being happy
Doing what you love and letting the rest follow you after
Spending time with the one's that fill you up with joy and laughter
Any day can be your last so live it like your final chapter
Focused on what matters looking at the bigger picture
Pouring out some liquor for the one's no longer with us
Movin' on to new beginnings 'cause I'm tryna make a difference
Improving my situation stayin' true to my existence
Appreciate my parents giving me what they where missin'
So I can do the same for all of my future children
That's why I'm on a mission on buildin' a foundation
Keep the family name alive, Thriving for generations
Utilize the time I have and do my best to never waste it
Leave a legacy behind, until my time of expiration
Always staying true to myself, and that's for certain (Yeah)
Never sell my soul for the acceptance of a person (No)
Me I never lose
If I'm not winnin' then I'm learnin' (Learning')
Not the type to complain
'Cause I was raised to put the work in (Work)
Always staying true to myself, and that's for certain (Yeah)
Never sell my soul for the acceptance of a person (No)
Me I never lose
If I'm not winnin' then I'm learnin' (Learnin')
Not the type to complain
