(Uh-)
The company I keep been getting smaller,
(Uh-)
Focused and my pockets getting larger,
(Uh-)
Reading through the fine print, I been getting smarter,
(Yes-zir-)
Addicted to green, -spinach, I been getting stronger,
Cutting shit short,-i been faster,
Horrible disasters,
My father’s lil bastard…..
Taught myself to do it all alone, I know you mean well,
I cannot accept it, I respect it- but I’ve seen hell,
Full of men that’s fallen for the okie doke,
Handshakes and bank notes,
Money rules the world, and if you understand….
-You know never trust your future in another’s hands,
Pocket full of blues……
-Broken promises and rubber bands….
Tryna hold this shit together but I can’t,
I’m the jazz man-
It only makes the target a lil bigger,
I’m a bad man-
Always blinded to the bigger picture….
I ain’t fronting,-I ain’t lying,
Its exhausting-and tiring,
To always be the one, they look to-to get inspired…….
But who the fuck gonna help me?
When I’m down?-no longer wealthy?
I don’t expect a lot, shit-i just pray they know real me,
The one that’s screaming “heal me-“,
Lately I been feeling-
[hook]
Lately I been feeling like my friends turned to enemies,
We don’t get along,-and I can’t match nobody’s energy,
(But still…)
All that pressure helped me sharpen up my skills……
I was buried in my books,
-not the corners or the deals…
Lately I been feeling like the world,-got it out for me,
People show you love, but it’s really out of jealousy,
(And still…)
I just play the cards I’m dealt and always kept it real,
I was focused on my knowledge,
-not the bitches or the thrills…
[outro]
You was a class act, they said you was a lame ass nigha,
From way back?
-now them nighas mad, they like “how the fuck you make that?!”,
Tell em suck my dick,
-I’m fucking bitches in the maybach,
Now…..
