[Intro]
It's nothing worse than telling a nigga he's not doing something right but you can't show him how to do it right
(Right)
Or, asking someone to do something and you don't know how it should be done 'cause you ain't did it
You feel me? (Right)
And I'm big on that like
I don't wanna ask nobody to do something that I can't do myself
Because I'm huge on - If you don't do it, I'm going to do it, I'm not gonna wait for you
So it's very important to, just know what you should be getting from people
Some people call back and be like, "Oh, it's gonna take me three weeks to do this"
My ass! Haha
It's not gonna take me three weeks
So, I, you feel me?
That's, that's the craziest part, you have to
You gotta get that experience
[Verse 1: FLVME]
Look
I know they all lookin' at me like, "Is he gon' come back and do all this shit again?"
Knowin' most of y'all ain't want a nigga to win
Don't know where I'd be if it weren't for God and the pen
Prolly six feet or squabblin' in the pen
Shit is so surreal, I'm livin' life in a dream, damn
It's like a movie and I'm all over their screens
So every fuckin' day I stick to the script and the scenes
Not like anyone of you suckers know what it means
2019 almost died with Clen behind the wheel
2019 dropped my first album, made some mills
But then I got distracted by some shit that really didn't matter
So, l blew it all like any dumb nigga will, ayy
Still kept goin' like a planet in its orbit
Even after everything l've seen was hella morbid
Things that I don't think anybody need in the open
Zip my fuckin' lips and just keep my eyesight on the motion (Let him cook, yo)
I am not just gifted, boy, I'm drenched in the blood of Jesus
Everything I do is strictly straight for the non-believers
So every other day I gotta fight me another demon
And sometimes we all get to steppin' beside the evil
Six figure conversations when I get in a meeting, I really mean it
I don't even flinch 'cause I know they need us
Goin' all the way to make it, certain my people eatin'
World goin' vegan, still niggas is out here beefin'
My patience for you niggas runnin' out, it's wearin' thin
Nine outta ten l'm the one that got 'em pressed again
Fuego got the spark, you niggas light is a lil' dim
Call me Himberly Kardashian, dawg, I'm really Him
Uh, stuck to the money like treacherous twins
Always come back with a win
Back to the basics, I'm runnin' laps 'round you niggas again
I don't do industry trends
I don't got industry friends
Ain't no pretendin', them boys can't shake me
I'm standin' on ten
[Interlude: WESTSIDE BOOGIE, Angela Yee, Charlamagne tha God]
You gotta play the game it feels like sometimes and that's the sad part
And can anyone ever heal all the way?-
No!
You're right
Healing is a constant journey, it's not a destination
You're right, but it's just like positive
Me being like, I'm scared to become the positive nigga
You know what I'm saying?
[Verse 2: WESTSIDE BOOGIE]
Check, check
Yeah, yeah, uh
To all my niggas in the dark, I hope this verse could light a match
Hope it make it to your heart 'cause then you won't be so detached
Further that I pull away the harder it get to get back
My dead homies on my shoulder like, "Don't come to where I'm at"
Like don't come to where I'm, uh
Ah, I say that the effort shows, it let me know
You niggas just do it to impress the hoes
Y'all think shit be set in stone
I say shit you'd never know
You still tryna bring her home
I say, "Nigga, let it go"
Still I'm at my best, I'm out here copin' with the stress
Never notice l'm a mess until the moments I reflect
If they catch me in the street, I only hope that it's direct
Yeah, protect my soul, remove the flesh, uh
Check, check
Shout my nigga FLVME, you know that's gang
I feel the same with your perspective on the game, uh
I respect a nigga that could make it through the rain, uh
I respect a nigga out here walkin' with that pain, uh
Check, check
[Outro: Charlamagne tha God, WESTSIDE BOOGIE, Angela Yee]
And we the first generation that has the luxury of actually healing
(Mhm-hm)
They-they had, they were scratching and surviving, you know what I mean?
That's why I said this the healed generation
I see all my friends is like great dads now, they all in their kid's life
Therapy is a conversation whether people like just using it to look cool, I don't even care
Just because like, the message out there now, know what I'm saying?
And sometimes you have to think you wouldn't even be who you are or where you are if it wasn't for how you were raised and the way that things happened
Yeah, that's true
I honestly I'm still scared to heal all the way because, as a rapper I think you look weak, you know what I'm saying?
I don't think, I could thrive as a rapper being healed all the way and I'm scared of that
And I'm not saying I'm right, but it's just like, the world glorify ignorance
