Ills of Babylon

Yeah, I treat these sessions just like therapy sessions
Got a lot of shit on my mind

Yeah, I keep them haters far away but the envy is close
It be the niggas at your table that just envy the most (envy the most)
Fighting with the powers that be and not with my folks (not with my folks)
Trying to be the best ever, I'm competing with ghosts (shit)

Dealing with the ills of Babylon
It ain't a sprint, lil' nigga, it's a marathon
I've been sick with it, all my niggas be like carry on
I've been fly like the plane that I travel on

Yeah, used to be my dog, you was in my left titty (yeah)
Scream, ride or die, I thought you would die with me
Through the grapevines, I heard you was trying to get rid of me (what?)
Too much ego, not enough accountability, damn
Thought you were my boy, treat you like a friend

A boy's gon' be boys, he could never be your mans, understand?
With success come a lot of mixed feelings
Niggas hatin', I ain't even touch six figures
(Niggas hatin', I ain't even touch six figures)
