Manual

I used to think you needed tunnel vision to your goals
The only way that our situations was pivotal to grow
Only way we was risen to the chips of them totem poles
I was treated like the reason that people didn't get to know
What success was like
Feeling like less than life
Knew I was living wrong
Feeling like death was right
.Because every left and right
I took for like I enter fights with demons

The only way they would leave is weed and the splits are like
Kept suppressing depression and pressing forward
They stressed the lessons from text and I did my homework
Now I suggest you take a breath before you go beserk
Eventually, you run out of gas
This ain't supposed to hurt

Chasing your dreams going to feel good through the adversity
You overcome the pain you know you could gain
Certainly, ignore the people that choose to give you all of the third degree
And tell you how to live. Your reply, I'm doing what works for me
There ain't no man you will for life
You ain't know what to do when they handed you a life
You just do your best because you don't get a chance to do it twice
I'm in my shoes and you and yours
Take a chance, live your life

You got to watch the peripheral
Adapt to your environment
Know a serpent from person because people, they behind shit
You know they be lying, so now you choosing to lie with it
Ride with it as long as when we fucking that vagina drip
Classical toxic shit, it's obvious, but resentment builds. It's hot as shit
Hot as that ass when little mommy's stripping, it's in her esophage

I know she cave and She don't want me here wondering why I'm going out and shit
They're pushing pullers for the boat and she going to drive that
But captain, I can't ride that. I got seasick from trying that
My mind, I had to find that
Lost that in her pussy, trying to please her
Just a tease, I was moving like a rookie. And not all of these veterans
I swore that I was better than
Shining at the end of the storm that
I was weathering, crying and obsessing over all of my regrets
And then I wipe my eyes and see that my destiny is ahead of him

But it ain't no manual for life
You ain't know what to do when they handed you a life
You just do your best because you don't get a chance to do it twice
I'm in my shoes, you and yours
Take a chance, live your life

Try to live mine
This boy, I got a sick grind and a sick mind
You know I'm going to get mine by any means
Sign that X like Malcolm, I'm going to hit that
They ain't going to shoot me in no space though
I ain't going to be lacking when it's me, bro
It's time to lead though
Got to do this shit for my people
