Ego

Always knew I was the realest in my class, dawg
Couldn't really care to tell you what they ass thought
Lot of pretty black women in my call log
They might pull up to the set and set it all off, damn
Yeah we seen the cops, we ain't guilty but we ran
We black, can't take no chances with that
We'll catch you back at the flat
Cuz they tend to see a nigga and don't think just react
R.i.p to ya' mans
The reason they around is that they do what they can
The reason I'm profound is that I do what they can't, point blank
Reaching for attention, they hate, they fake irate
My ego like a trip that's laced, can't keep my pace

Slide
Lately all my niggas outside
And if they got a problem we can slide
Trust me we can slide
Lately all my niggas outside
And if they got a problem we can slide
Trust me, we can slide

That shit alway weird when your eyes
Close and then your lips touch the pop filter
The fuck is this
Self importance, sense of self worth
How're ever supposed to create without it?
Is that what ego is?
Shit, I don't know
Ayo with unchecked ego I'm Nino Brown
Might not go down in history
But it's gon' indeed go down
I'm elite, I'm a regal
What I need, I'ma need it now
They tried to box me in
But figured out they can't keep'em out
I had to chin check my ego for truth to balance
Had to act on my ideas to add some truth to talent
Then I jump in the booth and rally to all the troops
Don't oppose what we do or it's chutes and ladders
Slide
Like electric or to first base
What's the rhetoric? what the shirt say?
I'm the better pick, I'ma an earthquake
I'm the better man in the first place
On my worst day
I been leveraging on my earth stay
Since my birthday
Is ego easing GOD out?
Or is GOD in ego?
I'm an eagle, i'ma find out
Bird's eye view
Feed the people, what I'm tahem' bout
My daddy slid in, I popped out
Now watch me slide out
My nigga just

Slide
Lately all my niggas outside
And if they got a problem we can slide
Trust me, we can slide
Lately all my niggas outside
And if they got a problem we can slide
Trust me, we can slide

I don't need the fake shit
Ain't nothing bout me basic
If you fix your lips to lie just don't say shit, just save it
I came to learn the truth is that I love it when they hate it
Still can't name a single artist really fuckin' with my cadence
Do you understand
Rip your throat out, leave you bleeding just because I can
When I'm gone they gon' remember who the fuck I am
Sick of being humble, this ain't fuckin' Damn
This my life, bitch
And the shit I've overcome would take your life quick
I can't trust a single soul, they gon' probably switch
Six months I spent slaving in the middle east
Put in work, came home, now it's time to eat
Lost friends, all good, working while they sleep
I just wanted peace
But to make it where I'm from you gon' need a piece
Surrendered to my ego, what it's done to me
