Homie caught a case, I know he mad, he gotta do the time
I would be mad too if I had to do the time, but didn't commit the crime
In this life of bullshit, you just gotta read between the lines
I was in my cell, it was my pen, paper, and a bunch of rhymes
Pleasing me is something I don't ask for, it's just given to me
What's the location sent, I ain't never been, sound like a setup to me
Ask a lot of questions when something ain't making sense to me
Especially if it's something that's really, really important to me
Had to turn up for the guys, they was ones looking up to me
I'ma put on a show for the people who wasn't rooting for me
Grant a couple wishes to the ones who was turning up for me
Mama know I got her, the only son this shit was destined for me
Brody looked out for me when I was on my own, I was down and broke
Had to sell my rings and chain because I had to go and pay my phone
Nigga got jealous because he felt he got left out of the mix
Nigga start throwing hella shade, my partner turned into a snitch
Lin always there for when I need him, and I'm grateful for him
Wake up every morning, smell the coffee before I make a buck
They be thinking I be walking empty, just know I always got it tucked
They be doing the same thing every day, and wondering why they stuck
Tunnel vision when I'm walking, guess I just don't give a fuck
Look at life like a dice game, you gotta go and try your luck
I'm in the jungle with a bunch of lion, bears, snakes, and apes
I'm really stuck in a system every day, I'm trying to escape
I'm just steady being me, can't switch for nobody
I just maintain my lane, certain shit can't remain the same
Old to him, to me, you new, girl you know what I'm trying to do
I had caught a bullshit charge, shit had really broke my heart
I'm just steady being and me, can't switch for nobody
I just maintain my lane, certain shit can't remain the same
Old to him, to me, you new, girl you know what I'm trying to do
I had caught a bullshit charge, shit had really broke my heart
Woman going on dates, trying to get money, they ain't getting nothing from me
Thought I was in love so many times, I guess it was lessons for me
Practice what I preach, it's a lot of hypocrites living around my circle
Running through these obstacles, I'm jumping over a bunch of hurdles
Barely on social media, but I know the opps always steady lurking
In a relationship with a shawty, realized it wasn't working
Couple shootouts with some niggas, trying take me away from my life
They gon' have to double back, because they the type to do shit twice
Never been a hater, they got left, because I do shit right
Never been the type to open up, I always kept my business tight
Always went with Nike, cause I always chose checks over stripes
Even when my eyes are closed, my future always show a bright
Youngest for my father, but I'm farther where I wanna be
Motivation is the key, that's why I always feel so free
Keep my head up, it's something I always gon' stand on for real
Maybe that's why I always tell myself that I'm the man for real
Yeah, I want this girl, I feel like Chris Paul, take the steal for real
Niggas tryna fight me, cause he know his bitch tryna choose for real
Always keep it player, but she know I ain't gon' play with her for real
They be wanting favors, but never ask me how I feel
