Lyrics As a Man - Shapiro

As a Man

As a man, I had to face my fears
I had to watch the d’evils take my peers
As a man, I had to make it clear
I’m all about my paper and these people here
As a man, I had to face my fears
I had to watch the d’evils take my peers
As a man, I had to make it clear
I’m all about my people and this paper yea
I been stacking up for years
I been acting like I’m there
I ain’t even make it yet
Drowning I can’t take a breath
I The Bible as my safety net
Married to the money
Ever lick is like makeup sex
Is it fucked up if I say I’m next
I done spent days on end
Trying to repay my debts
Poppa left his soul with me
Not just this gold with me
The reason why I glow with me
I got some of that new new
And I got all of that old in me
A product of these morals and these principles
You leave the spot exactly with who you bring with you
But be careful who you bring with you
They been tryna win it we been trying to win it to
As a man, I had to face my fears
I had to watch the d’evils take my peers
As a man, I had to make it clear
I’m all about my paper and these people here
As a man, I had to face my fears
I had to watch the d’evils take my peers
As a man, I had to make it clear
I’m all about my people and this paper yea
I been giving flava
This is something they can savour
Shin splints from chasing paper
From boot-cut jeans to tapered
From Throwing flyers throwing papers
To looking flyer than the famous
I’m unbias but I’m tainted
I’m use to rhyming on the pavement
Waiting on arrivals of a payment
Chasing what I admire’s for the taking
Got what I required out a basement
Pacing pacing
I’m always pinning Freddy against Jason
We all come from the potential to make it
The bad batch of the creation
But we In the section for the A-list
I’m just tryna gain traction on a playlist
I’m flexing in my mansion on some ape
As a man, I had to face my fears
I had to watch the d’evils take my peers
As a man, I had to make it clear
I’m all about my paper and these people here
As a man, I had to face my fears
I had to watch the d’evils take my peers
As a man, I had to make it clear
I’m all about my people and this paper yea
