| Yeah, yeah
|
| I got these ideas, I got a lot on my mind and it’s so hard to put 'em in a lot
|
| of songs, I try to put 'em all in one, you know
|
| Just what I’m feeling, what I’m going through
|
| I’ve been drinking so please bear with me
|
| Eyes wide shut, barely eating, tryna get my game on
|
| Played it too cool, almost like I froze, had to put my flame on
|
| All the while watch em X me out
|
| Magazine cover motherfucker, I ain’t tripping my flow
|
| and maybe they’ll listen to me when they sixty
|
| Breaking some bread down, treat it like the Last Supper
|
| Toast to all the time we were po' but still we had one another
|
| Hoppin' in/out of shuttles, I’ma be big momma
|
| I’ma get rich momma, I’m sorry I ain’t got a wife or kids momma
|
| But look what I did momma
|
| Got a house that I barely can stay in
|
| A car I barely can drive
|
| I’d be a liar if I said getting money didn’t make me feel alive
|
| Hustling, arguing about who’s better than I in tweets
|
| But what does it matter when a new artist come out like every week?
|
| And the label all on they nutsack, good for them, keep sucking
|
| Most rappers’ll bend over for you, but me?
|
| Bitch I’m not for fucking, over
|
| I’d be the biggest star, they told me
|
| Signed my name on that line and when I die, that’s when it’s over
|
| Moving on to the set, I was just a talented black kid
|
| But to them, I was like a check
|
| Another five years of slaving and then it’s on to the next
|
| I was tryna be what I envisioned as a child
|
| A king ain’t a man of God when ain’t no church in the wild
|
| Shit been fucked up 'cause they don’t talk about Christ
|
| Everybody trying to die young but who gon' talk about life?
|
| I pull that card Good Lawd, Confederate flag shit so flawed
|
| They used to fly it like pilots and burn crosses in our yards
|
| I can’t get with ya if you with that whistling Dixie want that old time back
|
| But niggas got a hundred rounds and automatics so we ain’t having that
|
| I ain’t promoting no violence, it’s people out here been wilding
|
| So much that you can get gunned down just for being happy and smiling
|
| Ain’t no hotline worth dialing to say the world needs help
|
| We too busy filling our needs that we might kill us ourselves
|
| I got my gumption from my granny, had a dream about her like last night
|
| She held me tight and told me, «Little one, everything gon' be alright»
|
| My mind playing tricks on me, but I needed that there
|
| In a world where I feel all alone sometimes I’m needing her care
|
| It’s hard to share my insecurities so I medicate, I mean meditate
|
| And pray to God for a second chance, for Heaven’s sake
|
| I’m just waiting on a sign or two
|
| Like what I’ma do when my heart get rusty and tired
|
| And it ain’t shining through, and I think about death a lot
|
| My father scared of dying, I can relate, I call him before every flight
|
| In case it ain’t meant for flying, I can’t hold it back, can’t control these
|
| tears
|
| I mean after all these years I’m still the kid writing poems, too shy
|
| To eat in the cafeteria, I’m two cups in and three shots away
|
| I don’t give a fuck about any of the shit I didn’t have to say
|
| Lord knows, it’s hard to see the truth with your eyes closed
|
| It’s hard to protect your feelings when you so exposed
|
| Yeah, I’m so exposed
|
| I’m so exposed
|
| So exposed
|
| I let it all slip away
|
| And now all I can say
|
| Is here’s a toast to a better day
|
| And the love that will come and stay
|
| Oh God, oh God, oh God, wherever you are, yeah
|
| I call your name near and far
|
| Oh, oh God, oh God, wherever you are, yeah
|
| I call your name near and far
|
| I’m so exposed
|
| I’m so exposed
|
| I’m so exposed
|
| I’m so exposed
|
| Oh God, oh God
|
| Oh God, oh God
|
| Oh yeah… |
