| It’s when you walk out on faith
|
| Choose to do what feel right, let everyone else trace
|
| What we chase ain’t the same
|
| I’m still that rapper that your favorite rapper scared to rap after
|
| Sometimes it’s hard to chill, choose to kill, kill, kill, kill
|
| I’m just that good though I ain’t worth a lot of millions
|
| When you rap this well a lot of rappers catch feelings
|
| We all want the best, don’t let a female kill 'em, yeah
|
| Hard to choose culture over fame
|
| You just want to be set and take care of all your fame
|
| It don’t make you, but it be cool to have money like Wayne
|
| Take the shorter roads so the family ain’t worrying
|
| Chose to build it slow, ain’t no need, no hurrying
|
| It’s hard to be political, can’t say what’s on your brain
|
| Careers come quick, it’s just as fast to bury 'em
|
| But I chose to give a damn
|
| And box for you like pictures on Instagram
|
| Chose to respect what was built by both Kool and Bam
|
| You know who I am, word to my homie Wyann
|
| Shit, ain’t hard to choose me there’s only one me, man
|
| (So hard to choose)
|
| That’s why I chose to be that
|
| Because where I’m from it ain’t cool to be wack
|
| And I’m so pro-black
|
| Though they don’t choose me back and that’s some choosy shit
|
| Why it’s so hard to choose y’all over these jewels and whips
|
| Welcome to my side
|
| When you look in the crowd the minority’s never white
|
| I appreciate y’all, but I’m lying if it don’t bite
|
| Cause I love all races but we gotta raise 'em
|
| Cause I know the scale tipped ain’t in no black girl’s favor
|
| Hey y’all, we all outcasts, these black girls favor
|
| The blonde Barbie and scars, we all gotta save 'em
|
| No love lost for whites, Latinos and the Asians
|
| Loyal to all, but when I look at these black girls faces
|
| I understand why I chose to be better, not basic
|
| So it’s not, not (hard to choose)
|
| Yeah, so excuse if I don’t care if hipsters relate
|
| It weren’t for you at all, at all why these songs were made
|
| Like you were overlaid at the airport
|
| And missed your sort of take off
|
| Don’t understand why we get naked or
|
| Why it’s hard to choose being real or being fake, huh?
|
| Cause the world worship people that get their cake up
|
| But I chose to De La Soul and raise the stake up
|
| Now why is it (so hard to choose)?
|
| Yeah, seldom support our own, I helped myself by advancement
|
| Want to make sure our daughters have better chances
|
| But y’all in that show and watching videos
|
| Why it’s hard to choose class or let them titties show
|
| But it’s better for my heart, honey, like Cheerios
|
| And secondly more comfortable doing
|
| Trying to build you up like I went to Lowe’s and bought a lot
|
| MC Lyte, I ain’t forgot what you told me
|
| I ain’t Hovy, but damn
|
| It’s hard to choose being humble or going HAM
|
| Humility’s a weakness, I was told different
|
| Quietest in the room is the baddest one like Durant
|
| It’s hard to choose Carolina over Atlanta
|
| Chicago, LA, especially in Johannesburg
|
| Yeah, cause it’s been love since beginnin'
|
| Home away from home, versus homes we get no spins in
|
| Why it’s (so hard to choose)?
|
| Being super lyrical or slowing it down
|
| Will they understand the metaphors and how they compound
|
| With the two lines before and the next three after?
|
| And ask myself does this shit, if it even still matter?
|
| The joints y’all tripping on are so easy and average
|
| And the ones I respect all got that gift mastered
|
| I don’t want to compromise my sick self for a master
|
| But it’s (so, so hard to choose)
|
| Cause if I don’t I’m not cool and I’m boring
|
| Should add a tsch tsch to my beats to be current
|
| This the shit I think about along with image and earnings
|
| But when Nas tell me «God you killin' it» then I’m burning
|
| All thoughts chasing y’all, man, it’s easy now
|
| XXL ain’t tripping, Time calmed me down
|
| Thinking where we all started from and where we all sitting now
|
| Shit I see it different now, why it’s not, not (hard to choose) |
