[Verse 1]
I'm a parent to the game, apparently insane
And incoherent, but society's inane
Reality's the same, but I won't live in vain
'Cuz I got some homies down that
I know would do the same
And I'm not saying names, 'cuz you could probably care less
Livin' in a world
That is so damn careless
We worry about one thing, we grow up to fear death
Just know I don't fear
Death, I'm comfortable near death
And I ain't stressin' about a flaw or an error
You gotta learn to smile at the beauty that gets mixed in with the terror
And not everybody grows old
So I'd rather be me and be broke instead of doing what I'm told
The outsiders always stay gold
And it's a bitter world, but where I'm from man we thrive in the cold
They're throwing money thinking that I'm sold
But the riches that I'm seeking aren't riches that are sold or you can hold
And I just want my handheld replaced with a hand
Held in sincerity by no
Other man
My denial killed by clarity, and find the need to know where I stand
And just
Hope it's all apart of a plan
It's way too complex, you wouldn't understand
If you keep it in context, you might just have a chance
And no I'm not on yet, but thank you in advance
Meanwhile, I'm on deck just practicing my stance and I tell 'em that
[Hook]
I do this for my homies that can't
And for the rest who always said I never had a chance
And I can't make you dance, but I can make you sway
Until the music fades away
So keep bringing good vibes and adapt to the goodbyes
No matter if you're good at goodbyes
And no I can't make you dance, but I can make you sway
Until the music fades away
[Verse 2]
It's prewritten, this life that we livin'
But I will never give in, to kill it is a given
I give it right back to my people, keep me driven
I'm bringing home the gold, the trophy, and the ribbons
I don't believe in love, I believe in good intentions
And we are all human, so I see the good in tension
I know it's like that, so I seldom fight back
And I seldom write back when I'm in my own dimension
But don't be stressing mentions, just focus where you need to
Focus on who needs you, and focus on your needs too
On your two knees, givin' thanks to who you need to
Quit pointing or putting your middle fingers up, you need two
You feelin' ignorant then hate on that
And often times I'm known to throw some hate on tracks
But this right here, this is respect for the fallen
To angels taken back 'cuz they already served their calling
So vibe with it, cry with it, sway with it, jive with it
Live and let die, but let your feelings come alive with it
Take you back a minute, turn the dial and rewind with it
Move you out your mind and enter mine, if you don't mind with it
Spit it like you wrote it, just go ahead and rhyme with it
Write it down and quote it, just keep you on your grind with it
The times tickin' so I embrace it
And they my family still there is never a replacement, and I tell 'em
