[Intro: MAVI]
Yeah, huh (His success di—)
I done been let down by my own, I'll never be surprised again
(His success did not come without struggle)
Yeah
[Chorus: MAVI]
I done been let down by my own, I'll never be surprised again
When I seen my dreams finally creep up close, why I pushed my people far as shit
Give stronger reasonin' with my leavin' than my speakin', I'm convinced
I done made my peace with a couple secrets that's too deep for rhymin' with
[Verse 1: MAVI]
Gotta keep my heat, fuck stop and frisk
I'm finally rich, apocalypse
The margins slimmin', all permissions nonessеntial
Sparkin' issues, starter pistol
Partin' with you, just guardian, impartin' wisdom
Equally, a leap to call you inconsеquential and central
I'm narcotizin' the big wounds, Oxy is not a senzu
Droppin' Wock' in a big blue, parkin' lots turn to venue
Addict, I ever kick you, then you'll never exist to me
Make any history mystery 'fore you get to me
[Chorus: MAVI, MAVI & MIKE]
Been let down by my own, I'll never be surprised again
When I seen my dreams finally creep up close, why I pushed my people far as shit
Stronger reasonin' with my leavin' than my speakin', I'm convinced
I done made my peace with a couple secrets that's too deep for rhymin' with
[Verse 2: MIKE]
A death wish whisper 'round my head, I'm restless leavin' out my crib
Ingestin' many pounds of that ****, get to tweakin' out of resent
Caught me speakin' out of my neck, try defeatin' all that I did
Got me beatin' all on my chest, it's easy readin' all that fib
Unless we in talk of some bread, I can't be involved with that mix
When the team lost, I ain't left, tell me a steep cost I ain't spent
I never keep cautious on the ledge, do a free fall in that pit
They need to free y'all from the bench, I'm playin' B-ball with the zip
By default when we win, soon need a keycard for the whip
Booked and I be gone, tell 'em keep calm, when the streets call, I appear
Don't need a theme song, like a leap frog, got a green fog in the air
I let some steam off, couple weed coughs, why the deep thoughts never clear
I guess it mean more in the end, I stretch and reach forward in the wreck
I made some detours, on a dream tour, now my feet sore from the steps
I made it billboard from the bed, I took a pill for all the stress
Was with the kill boys in the center city, make some real noise for the vets
[Chorus: MAVI]
I done been let down by my own, I'll never be surprised again
When I seen my dreams finally creep up close, why I pushed my people far as shit
Give stronger reasonin' with my leavin' than my speakin', I'm convinced
I done made my peace with a couple secrets that's too deep for rhymin' with
I done been let down by my own, I'll never be surprised again
When I seen my dreams finally creep up close, why I pushed my people far as shit
Give stronger reasonin' with my leavin' than my speakin', I'm convinced
I done made my peace with a couple secrets that's too deep for rhymin' with
[Outro: MAVI]
Yeah, huh
I done been let down by my own, I'll never be surprised again
