[Intro]

Yeah

[Verse]

Nobody gon' tell you how to tell your friends

That they can't come with you but they still your friends

Nobody gon' tell you how your tale gon' end

How you lose most the fight but you still gon' win

Nobody gon' tell you how to stay in your hometown or pick up the phone now

Nobody gon' tell you what's in them contracts

Or that your lawyers and the label staying in contact

Nobody gon' tell you when they say "Y'all buddies," they mean they they all buddies

Going over numbers with each other, they golf buddies

They go on vacations together, they day-off buddies

Thеy sit around and laugh about how much they made off buddy

Nobody tell you how your book might еnd

Nobody tell you how to count five dollars 'til it look like ten

Nobody tell you how to hang with hoes that look like friends

They all got the doctor, now they look like twins

I keep 'em clean, yeah, they twenties, they just look like tens

I make 'em stop and do a spin, yeah, they look like rims

I lost an arm and a leg when I made my plans

Now I be hopping at the chance just to shake some hands

I'm Ray Charles on a blind date, I'm feelin' wristy

If my friends is going now my arm getting twisted

If they play a wedding song, my eyes getting misty

Used to be in line for a list, now I miss it

They ain't finna tell you about the hard parts

'Bout the white folks at the shows singing "Nigga" with the hard R

Go backstage and interview with Nardwuar

Do your dance, lil nigga, this your chance, lil nigga

[Chorus]

Don't nobody tell you how to tell yourself

It was always yourself, you don't need no help

Can't nobody tell you how to be yourself

You don't need no help, you can free yourself
