Motives (feat. Anthony Stallings)

Your motives are showing the worst side of you
But I'ma keep doing me, I'ma keep doing me
Mmm

Uh, bad motives all around, can't escape the vibe
Greed and lust take control, that's the devil's eyes
Chasing power, doing anything to win, put your heart at stake
Was it really worth your sin? Nah
And money talks, but it can't buy peace
And go and sell they soul, everything they love, finna cease
Hunger for more, like a drug you can't refuse
Addiction and bad motives like a noose
What you choose? Are you jealous or content with your life
You gotta ask yourself, what's the real price
Of chasing after material things
Money and fame, all the joy it brings
The simple moments in life make you feel like kings
Man, it's easy getting caught up in the game
Your motives change, only flipped the script for the fame
Staying true to myself, I'll never compromise
My integrity and honor you will never undermine

Your motives are showing the worst side of you
But I'ma keep on doing me
Mmm
But at the end of the day
At the end of the day
I'm going my own way
Ooh

Yeah I got more, turn me up
Showing true colors now referred to as I don't know 'em
We opposing unpredictable motives
Shaky relationships and bumpy roads like worn rotors
Growing up you look behind to lots of doors closing
Looking forward, that's essential for some more to open
Nowadays I realize the real lies
Gotta recognize human beings rocking snake eyes
Giving up on chasing the wrong people
As soon as you rise up, the vulture got eyes up
Repulsive, I'm fired up, hearts an arc reactor
Plotting on my crash, hope I paralyze, Don Cheadle
I had to be my own Avenger, man, I won't surrender
Had to get it on my own, I promise no pretending
No one lending out directions to the easy route
Heart been on my sleeve, see they motives when it's bleeding out

I said your motives
They're showing
The worst side of you
Hey hey hey
And ain't nothing gonna stop that now
I'm gone, I'm gone
I'm gone

I won't ever lose my spirit
I'm knowing they gon' feel it
Yeah, I won't ever lose my spirit, no, no
