UNDERSTAND?
They'll never get it
I came from family dollar dinners
On Jefferson st cold winters
I seen what's not to mention
You better pay attention
When I'm on top of these writtens
Cause after this beat gets finished
These other rappers diminishing
And I'm done with petty shit
Cause really it's not good for me
From troubling times to double time my numbers stacking pretty quick
I'm working on my temperament they had me hot from stupid things they did
I'm not really wanting a new bae unless she the one that's having my kids
Might not be time for that though
I gotta grind for my goals
Sometimes it's hard on this road
But ya know I gotta keep going
I put my stories in motions
That's just the way of a poet
Bitch you should know that I wrote it
So all the rights imma own em
And they still won't understand
Still won't understand
What it takes to be the man
When you sticking to yo plans
Why they try to pin em down
Try to take em down with them
I ain't never gon drown
Out the way is how I swim
It's only up from here my nigga so ain't no way you'll see me frown
This not a game but how they played
You would've thought that they fouled out
I must keep going making music keeps me sane It holds me down
When no one else there to help out
I'm just locked in til I breakout
Plenty times that I tried to care
They fucked it up so I switched gears
I'm 23 I'm all I need won't get no younger around fiends
They'll try to take my energy
That's why I'm just focused on me
Almost gave my all to marie
She was there when I jacked my knee
But I wasn't making money
That just added fuel to defeat
Seems like all our comments deleted
And the love really depleted
I just shrug when they ask where she at
All I know is to keep on swinging
But it's hard when you on the fence
Gotta balance the wants and needs
Now thats some shit they just won't understand
still won't understand
What it takes to be the man
When you sticking to yo plans
Why they try to pin em down
Try to take em down with them
I ain't never gon drown
Out the way is how I swim
(gotta keep swimming dawg)
I came from family dollar dinners
On Jefferson st cold winters
I seen what's not to mention
You better pay attention
