Change

Change
Eh yea
I gotta Change
Yea

They asking why I gotta change
Think I work this hard to stay the same, oh
Want the money and the fame
Guess that's how I gotta play the game
Game game game game

Five years
Took it to the good in five years
Been misunderstood for five years
Been outta the hood for five years
My mind clear

Never would I thought I'd be here
Mama always said don't stand there
Mama's always right so I stand clear
Mama's always right so I stand clear

Wrong time in a wrong place
Every story starts with a sad face
Every homie ends up in one place
Had a homie stabbed up
And bear maced

That's when I decided
Put it in words
Matter of fact I'll write it
Started making beats
New tracks to recite with
A little bit of nerves and a little excitement

H.Y.L.D.
Was the team I would write with
I-C-E, J.D.
The right kids

Gave me a basis from basics
From king back to aces
Too young to do shows
Couldn't get any places

Started a home studio
In the basement
Went back to the drawing board
Erased it

Took a deep breath
Paced it
Stared at the mirror
Reality facing

Took my own time
Developed my style
VanityKing TM till I die
Stupid
To be out there spittin bout lies
So I made me a promise
No truth be denied
Bought me some cars
I could use em in lines
Honestly tho
They were all worthless rides
Truth is the only thing worth all my time
Is a dream I been shooting for all of my life, yea

They asking why I gotta change
Think I work this hard to stay the same, yea
Want the money and the fame
Guess that's how I gotta play the game

They asking why I gotta change
Think I work this hard to stay the same, oh
Want the money and the fame
Guess that's how I gotta play the game
Game game game game oh
yea, game game game game game
Change change change change change change oh
Change change game game game
