I know sometimes it seemed like a lost cause
But it's all worth it
Don't be so hard on yourself cuz you're not perfect
And yeah it get dark but just don't ever stop searching
Cuz right when they drop curtains and the crowds gone and you lost 30
They can forget to respect you reflect
And you'll see they cannot hurt you they all dirty
You gotta stop blaming yourself for the friends that you lost
Everything comes with a cost
And crying don't mean that you're soft
But this is the path and you chose to walk it
You paid the price for that bag in your pocket
Them cigarettes still got you coughin
Keep smoking them nails in your coffin
You punish yourself way too often

And you bein home wouldn't change what those cops did
Rest up Malik
I know when you heard that you lost it
Confused and in tears like a lost kid
And seeing them pigs makes you nauseous
It's deadly if you don't move cautious
Justice is based on who profit
So whatever it is it is not this

Turned 32 with a pistol in hand
Thinking this might be the end
You was down in the darkness again
Right at the height of your plans
I'm happy that you took the chance and gave me a life
You don't understand
You gave me a life now when i can I'm spreading some light
I'm doing it right this time

New lease don't waste it success so close you can taste it
Two families one apartment yeah you went and got it out the basement
You was sick of struggling for the basics
Finding your way in the bass hits
You got the drive and they fake it
You got a dream they can't take it
Every engagement coulda went south
Holes in your heart they been filling with doubt
They poison your thoughts with all of the venom that come out they mouth
They want the clout you want the cash
They sat on a couch when you did a dash
Called you a dummy for chasing your passion
And now they act sad you cut em all out

But It's all gonna pay off
Poppa got sick and you momma got laid off
I promise you the pills the only thing you gotta stay off
Smoke up a pound taking the weight off
Long as you ain't take a day off

You gotta get rid of the ghosts that haunt you
And the feeling that nobody want you
It's fake why would you respond to it
They playing a part and it's on cue
But people will do what they want to that motivation beyond you
Please refrain from acting out despite the pain they caused you

Showin a weak point could get you exploited easily
People be moving so greasy sheesh
I'm just resting peacefully
But hoes tore off my Jesus piece and now I'm hanging regally
Whippin the city illegally
I'm fitna be free this time
