Swear to God
Bandz nigga

What they say can't affect me or how they think of me
They gone hate what they don't know that's what life teaching me
Ain't tryna portray no image all my flaws you can see
Once a nigga cross game it's like he out of reach
Now them youngins ain't attentive when you tryna preach
Cause it don't hit the same, back then you ran the streets
Now they adopt they own ways starting to play for keeps
But the trauma we dealing with guidance we should seek

Ain't no right way of thinking, ain't no wrong neither
Instead of being right if we get it right we can see it clearer
Can't help nobody if you afraid to look in the mirror
Don't make decisions if it's coming from a place of fear
Or instincts
Now you down the road doing thirty years
Thinking bout all the people tried to steer you away that you ain't think was sincere
Nobody perfect we don't get a second chance for real
Could barely express how I feel posed to be made of steel

What they say can't affect me or how they think of me
They gone hate what they don't know that's what life teaching me
Ain't tryna portray no image all my flaws you can see
Once a nigga cross game it's like he out of reach
Now them youngins ain't attentive when you tryna preach
Cause it don't hit the same, back then you ran the streets
Now they adopt they own ways starting to play for keeps
But the trauma we dealing with guidance we should seek

Shit ion know it seem like nothing a nigga do just make me happy
Be forgetting what I do this shit for sometimes

I lost respect for some niggas you deem as high regard
Shit they display for the public got me sick like SARS
Dodging near death experiences knew I'd make it far
But the question was could I take the lid off the jar
I feel my pain set me apart but we all got it
Prolly the way a nigga convey it plus I'm full of knowledge
Could tell you eighteen years of pain and make it sound melodic
And tell you eighteen different ways on how to get it popping
You know living risk free won't get you far get to plotting
You better stand on all ten like Deandre Hopkins
Or keep complaining bout ya living status it's ya option
Niggas love to egg shit on and be the first to mock it
I could never give you my all ain't Yk Osiris
Been told em put they nose up before the virus
Imma put my wrongs on display I ain't gone try to hide it
And hopefully you respect it or atleast acknowledge

What they say can't affect me or how they think of me
They gone hate what they don't know that's what life teaching me
Ain't tryna portray no image all my flaws you can see
Once a nigga cross game it's like he out of reach
