In Your Own Way (feat. F-O)

Yeah, didn't believe I would make it this far
Used to drive around in outdated cars
But I drove it 'til it broke, then I fixed it
Saved money, I guess you must've missed it

Now I fly over the Pacific
And that's really keepin' it specific
Grind unpaid, all terrific
Hard work always shine regardless of critics

But there's those that's in the digits
For views, do somethin' explicit
Only fans adjustin' the widget
Your potential is much more, you're just scared to admit it

But your attitude's acidic
Blind in the daylight like Riddick
So-called friends don't wanna chill, they ain't with it
You, in your own way, you just don't get it

You, in your own way
You just don't get it
You, in your own way
You just don't get it

Look Chiz, I'm knowin' how it could be
So much on my mind, don't know how to sleep
Even when I try to find some rest, it's all to my dreams
Got distractions on all sides

Still a player shootin' to be the greatest of all time
Might just need some more time
If you're speakin' on your time
Then careful how you spend it

For you know where it could be endin'
It's either that or find yourself with a heartful of resentment
Trippin' off what you ain't gettin' or don't have
Started a good story, now it's gone bad

Somewhere down the line, somebody did the wrong math
Or chose the wrong path, tends to happen on the regular
So if you find yourself fallin' now, you should be gettin' up
No lettin' up or givin' in, get it in

All it takes is a little focus and some of that discipline
And if you're listenin', I ain't talkin' down
Understand it's real life and I'm goin' through it now
As hard as it sounds, I had to check myself before I wrecked myself

It was either that or go and get some help
I faced myself, then we started comfortably speakin'
People think I'm trippin', we just havin' a company meetin'
I just started gettin' that sass in it, then made the corrections in

Now a player out here doin' him to perfection, and
So you shouldn't take it the wrong way
If you hear somebody tell you
That you're probably in your own way

You, in your own way
You just don't get it
You, in your own way
You just don't get it
