What do you really want?
I thought I heard them say
There were no losers only winners
That's my mistake
But if I'm already a sinner
I might as well
Kill everyone who's ever told me
I needed help
People put on shows for the cameras
Can't give them props for the plays they're making when they're all fake
But fuck it, I'll go Macbeth on anyone who acts like they're leading
Give stage fright a whole new meaning aye
Put these actors in their place
They only care about fame
I care about being great so I'm out here really breaking a sweat
While they just pour water on their face aye
I thought I heard them say
There were no losers only winners
That's my mistake
But if I'm already a sinner
I might as well
Kill everyone who's ever told me
I needed help
You keep telling yourself you want this
All the fame and money and shit
You keep telling us how you want it but
Deep down we both know you don't want shit
You just say that to feel important
You like making goals we like working towards them
This is like the hare and the tortoise
If the tortoise took all the breaks and the hare was constantly working aye
I'm at this rapping shit every day
Because people don't be about what they say
But me, I be writing like I was an author of Slappy
Cause I'm always grinding and promoting myself like Dashie
So spare me your excuses
I'm not Pasty cause if you actually went for it, like Pharell you'll be happy
But instead, you're doing this shit as a hobby so you won't be as big as Bobby
You should murder if
You keep telling us how you want this
Man stop telling us and go do it
You keep telling us how you want it but
Talk with no action's useless
You change goals every other weekend
And I'm your friend, I promise bro I want you to reach them
But it's kinda hard to help when you keep bullshitting yourself
I don't know what you want man I guess that makes two of us
Fuck
I thought I heard them say
There were no losers only winners
That's my mistake
But if I'm already a sinner
I might as well
Kill everyone who's ever told me
I needed help
I'm not playing with this new shit
Refuse to dwell on anything that only hurts the movement
That's why I drop an album, then start the next one a week later
That's why I can get over girls I loved for a year in a month with no malice behavior
Feeding other people can make it harder to eat
So focused on my passion I wish I didn't need sleep
I used to judge people who didn't follow their dreams
Until I realized dreams just aren't as black and white as they seem for me
My dream is making tracks and being a famous rapper but for you
A nine to five could be something that you would rather have
A humble life with wife and kids that you have to look after
Some people are happier not being a Raptor just a Raptors' fan
Fame can put you in Jepeorady like Regis
So it's no wonder there's people who don't really feel they need it
Especially when they turn on the TV
And feel more happy than half of the famous people that are on it on some real shit
But fuck it, I switch the channel on em'
Rappers wanna make it, I just wanna make a classic album
They get pressed like wrinkled clothes
But I learned from 50 that mining beats hitting gold whether you're rich or broke so
Fuck a random singer saying you can be anything you wanna be
Cause you can be anything you wanna be
So fuck them, fuck your friends saying what you wanna do
And fuck me cause I'm just a random singer too
Don't listen to me
You know yourself way better than I do
I can't change my listeners' lives, I only try to
People say I need a different angle but their opinions are minute
I hear em' talk and my attention span gets shorter than a haiku
So tunnel-visioned you know what that's like
The feeling like you might have fucked up in a past life
Cause you wanna succeed so god damn bad
Just so you can show these motherfuckers what you're made of for the last time
But I know I need to chill out
Cause I don't wanna be the saddest rich person in town
Wishing I focused more on the moment instead of buying that big house
It's a balance, yin without yang is completely useless
My passions' making music
And even though it'd be cool to be big as Drake with no day job
I don't need to be just to do it
Keep telling these kids it's all or nothing you might fuck around
and give them enough stress to wanna jump off a bridge or something
Success in life is subjective
But what's not is if I'm happy with what I've ticked off my checklist
So that's all I'm really seeking
And if some people don't like my path
Then guess what fuck their ass I don't need them
Fuck living my life to please them
Fuck only eating on the weekend man
Burns crumble like forever stubble
Unable to be shaved off your face
Sugarberry I'm dazed
Under my eyelids lies the place where you lay all day
Waiting for night to come
There were no losers only winners
That's my mistake
But if I'm already a sinner
I might as well
Kill everyone who's ever told me
I needed help
People put on shows for the cameras
Can't give them props for the plays they're making when they're all fake
But fuck it, I'll go Macbeth on anyone who acts like they're leading
