Mona Lisa

Purpose is greater than pleasure
I feel great under pressure
I could do it alone
But we do it better together
That's how I treat my endeavors
I always needed to learn
But never needed a lecture
And in case you need a refresher

I've been on the east side
Keep tryin'
Riding with my Mona Lisa
Ya see why
Mind spin like ballerinas
Thrift shop
Got it feeling like a free style
Mean while
I've been on the go
How could they not know?

I spent six hundred thousand minutes on it
I been through the gauntlet
I've felt unloved and unimportant
An array an assortment of feelings
I've had people break my heart and deny they involvement
I've had days feel the longest and nights the darkest
I've had greats tell me that I'm the rawest
I've had verses feel like the middle of august
I've been in rooms filled with greatness and you just try to absorb it
I know people who truly believe being fake is important But what they're chasing is morbid
I get it your place is enormous, flex if you wish
I wish I could get a paid endorsement, to bless you with this
Steady trying to break you a portion, for setting up tricks
You would have gotten away with it to, but those meddling kids

I've been on the east side
Keep tryin'
Riding with my Mona Lisa
Ya see why
Mind spin like ballerinas
Thrift shop
Got it feeling like a free style
Mean while
I've been on the go
How could they not know?
