Weekends In The Perry's

You gotta talk to niggas in the language they can understand
(That's how it always been)
It’s crazy I got an hour up this late
(That's how it always been)
Ayo, some shit you ain’t gon' never change, so don’t worry 'bout it
(That's how it always been)
It’s the way it always been
Real shit though
Yo, word to every block in my city they heard I got it
And my track record certainly show I deserve the homage
And they refer to my shit like Malcolm X’s word of knowledge
Cookin' coke, burnin' product was only a learnin' process
Steppin' on a brick of fentanyl before you heard about it
And my phone used to ring so much you get nervous 'round me
Cut ties with the game, the same shit that certified me
All my clientele gone, miss the customer service, buy me
Yeah, they just like me, in my Prada flippers
Ties to Virginia like Teddy Riley, since rap I been treadin' lighty
They mad I’m back rappin' 'bout dope again, nevermind me
The pressure from my pen made them rap a lil' better finally
They crooked, bendin' the rules, rappers I considered them cool
But when you talkin' most authentic, then who gon' fit in my shoes?
I’m livin' my truth, sky is the only limit I knew
From drug dealin' to music, I mean, what didn’t I do?
Who didn’t I put on?
Took Ls and then I recruit
On the shoestring budget I showed them what I could do
Ask Jake the next cat 'bout the bosses that I produced
I’m West best investment, but that’s between me and you (Uhh)
Always been that way (That's how it always been)
Come on, that shit ain’t never gonna change
Just continue straight ahead
That’s the one thing that’s never gonna change
The way things have always been
Had to quit blastin' cigarettes (Uh huh)
Was two-timin' my dad, my momma big in this
But the gang happen to blame, my lyrical regret (Yeah)
My brain a bit of a wreck
All this stress and strain let it disconnect (Woah)
Cheffin' up all the 'caine in that kitchen net (Skrrt)
Acquainted with big as X who filthied out my name just to split a check
(Whatever)
Feel like I been betrayed by my silhouette (Yeah)
Mistakes was made to correct
How I deal with the fame made me get upset (Ayy)
Treated the same way that I lived or death
Shit been wearin' a nigga down
Refraining from different stages of self neglect
Give me chills in my veins, takin' whatever’s left (Woah, cold)
From everything that was took in blatant disrespect
For good, better best, learn traitor for less (Whatever)
Took everything that came with it, and that came with a check (Big money)
But yeah, still a nigga rich off paintin' depressed
Chasin' the letter here, ain’t got a case to catch
David Blaine with the press, tame a dog and made it fetch
Whatever
Come on, that shit ain’t never gonna change
It’s been goin' on since the beginning of time
That’s the one thing that’s never gonna change
The way things have always been
