[Chorus]

I was taught "You should never become jealous of a man"

If you wanted what he had, then you should figure out a plan

If you lust over his things, you might lose your only chance

Focusing on what you don't got forgetting what you have

[Verse 1]

Jealousy and envy like to hide amongst our friends

And if we look inside the mirror, we got some of it within

Niggas hating on each other, see each other and pretend

Which we drowned in holy water, all our insides need a cleanse

Inshallah, mashallah to my brethren

Fighting through this hell, know there gotta be a Heaven

Need to face all my emotions, I been runnin' and repressin'

You could bury what you killed but you can't murder your depression

I still survive, sometimes when breathin' I still don't feel alive

Jealous eyes watching the moon, then sun forgets to shine

See the sign, you keeping your focus on other niggas' grinds

Hypnotized by glitter and gold, and other niggas' lies

We watching one another like a show on prime time

You can't learn to play your role from learnin' other niggas lines

You can't learn to win the game if you been cheerin' from the side

You can't make it to the front if you just follow from behind

[Chorus]

I was taught "You should never become jealous of a man"

If you wanted what he had, then you should figure out a plan

If you dream about his world, you could watch your life pass

Focusing on what you don't got forgetting what you have

I was taught "You should never become jealous of a man"

If you wanted what he had, then you should figure out a plan

If you dream about his world, you could watch your life pass

Focusing on what you don't got forgetting what you have

[Verse 2]

I need to find inspiration, if I want it, I could get it

Don't believe inside myself, I'm insecure, I need to face it

I be seeing niggas flexing and I feel like I ain't make it

Need to focus on my wins and never focus on my failing

But it's hard when the social media defines your presence

Watching niggas throwing cash, it make you feel like you a pheasant

Lookin' at other people gettin' stuck inside their blessings

And we can't walk away, it's like the longest jail sentence

I'ma break free, the internet is make-believe

(It make you wanna kill your dreams)

I'ma break free, the internet is make-believe

Killing people's self esteem, it make you wanna kill your dreams

Niggas be showing off their lives, but it's never what it seems

Posting shit to get reactions and we hope that we get seen

I be scared to post a picture if the likes don't get received

And if niggas don't react, then I'm deleting everything

[Chorus]

I was taught "You should never become jealous of a man"

If you wanted what he had, then you should figure out a plan

If you dream about his world, you could watch your life pass

Focusing on what you don't got forgetting what you have

I was taught "You should never become jealous of a man"

If you wanted what he had, then you should figure out a plan

If you dream about his world, you could watch your life pass

Focusing on what you don't got forgetting what you have
