Intro
Honestly it's been hard to sleep
I've been gone for weeks they on to me
They think it's probably the big ole star in me
It ain't hard to see it ain't hard to see
What I'm gonna be
I get on my knees and I pray for peace yeah yeah
You don't gotta be on the streets to understand how easy it is to turn to a bum
You don't gotta have a Bentley into your name to understand that it won't bring you none
Don't get me wrong I'm still tryna get me some
Understand I don't put it above loyalty and all the critical love
Don't think I can get enough
We really came from the slums
I remember me and Lastee were sharing a sponge
Breakfast and dinner at lunch
Off the grid people thought we had taken a plunge
Fake friends acting like they related to us
We wasn't making as much we were just paving it up
Stayed down now I see niggas hatin' on us
I stayed committed to the hustle then I started hearing they liking all my songs
I've been tryna right all my wrongs
But I don't even write my songs
Do l need to sharpen the world around dull first time I heard about a rose
Pouring liquor down my throat
I just freed a couple souls
Iyana I do this for you
Amile I do this for you
Aphiwe I do this for you
Nomusa I do this for you
I could never cut you loose I love you more than I love what I do
Still I'm devoted to creating moments cause I know one day they'll benefit you too
Win or die I choose to sin and fly
Fuck BM meaning mine
I'm not from the set I'm a different guy
Realness you can't synthesize
Ain't got a heart I can't sympathize
Too authentic can't be gentrified
Confronting Satan look him in his eyes
He ain't sick as I he ain't lit as I
