Maintain |
I’m sitting at the edge of my bed and I’m fed |
Up with negative thoughts running straight through my head |
Lights red, and I can’t make moves, it’s hard |
And I thought it would have been nice to buy papa dukes some shoes |
Niggas try to get over, pressure on my shoulders |
Dropped the fat LP in '91 of October |
Now that I’m older and my man pops is gone |
My focus is stronger, Monch pick up your head, we gotta move on |
Do you remember Mr. J used to say the beats was fat |
But when it comes to business, nigga don’t play |
I look beyond all this stress to seek fate |
Mad homicides, unemployment rates sky high |
Shorty busting caps, cops caught him out there |
Daytime drama and his mama didn’t care |
That’s why I should be rapping and packing pistols on the bully |
But niggas be stressing me and I ain’t paid in fully |
So I’m dropping something fatter, not for props |
We’re respecting the matter, hops |
I’m fat, check my stats, Prince drops data for me and my man Pops |
Rolls-Royce and myself are always getting mad harassed by the cops |
So now I’m in the chop shop creating masterpieces |
So it don’t matter money what my fronting label releases |
This is thanks to the streets and my peeps that made me |
And the la-la-lee, la-la-lee |
We gotta maintain (Repeat 8x) |
Now it’s been saaaaaaaaaaid, a grown man ain’t supposed to cry |
So whyyyyyy, are there tears inside my eyes? |
I wake up in the morning, it’s a new problem |
I just can’t solve 'em |
Yo, extreme kid, I’m telling you man, I’m on the brink of robbin' |
Who’s that man in the mirror? |
Ha! |
The picture’s getting clearer and clearer, ha! |
The end is coming nearer and nearer, ha! |
Take a good look at what you fear, ha! |
Time marches on and it’s a new song |
It’s a new morning, it’s a new dawn |
Feet don’t fail me now, I got to make it to the studio someway somehow |
But I need a little bit of nourishment first |
I stop at the store to quench my thirst |
Why are they watching me buy my juice? |
Why must they clock me buy my juice? |
Just give me my change and please put my change into my hand |
Man would you listen to me if I didn’t have a tan? |
All you have to do is show some decency |
But you want to bring out the beast in me |
Papa always told me… be all you can be |
And maintain, gotta maintain |
(Ad-libs to end) |
