They wanna switch up the agreement

Never come to terms

They only do it for the destination

Not the journey

Everyday a long day

And now I'm used to that

I don't gotta take cover

To cover up my tracks

I remember when the music

Made the people laugh

Now it's my music being played when everyone reacts

I was sitting in the car

On album drop night

When I saw some people

Waving at me at a red light

I'm down to earth

That means I'vе gotta be resourceful

So I turn your homеboy's music on for torture

Momma told me that I've gotta be a soldier

Out here swimming with the sharks

And then

I sleep among the cobras

Turned my attitude inside out

And if you're looking at me wrong

You'd think it's upside down

You turn my smile to a frown

With all the small talk

Bring that excuse of a poem in here

And you'll be taking a walk

Do my own negotiations

I'm the owner of it

It gets so stuffy in the studio

I truly love it

Shoot my shot like a free throw

No pump faking

The free features are over

Ask for one

And you're mistaken

The group of people that I trust is running pretty thin

Every struggle that I manage is all within

The walls of my brain

Protected by electric fences

Ask my enemies about the damage that I did

Open up my laptop

I'm working on a project

My only job here is to truly project

By that

I mean I need to do my best

'Cause anybody that's got a computer and a microphone

Could really be a threat

That's the industry

I'm tryna be better

When I

Get on the mic

The bars as cold as this weather

Get cozy

Maybe put on a sweater

Day after day

I think it's strange

It's already December

2 albums in 6 months I'm an efficient guy

When it comes to anything but the time to decide

Everybody makes it feel like it's do or die

I think I'd rather die

Than ride with somebody that hates me only off to the side

So they're faking it to get in good with me

I noticed it visibly and the rest of it is history

They play a game

But listen up

This ain't monopoly

If you don't kill me

Then there's no way that you're stopping me

I mean it

I'm known for my kindness and attitude

But don't think 'cause I'm friendly

That I'll struggle to come at you

I honor my commitments that I make first

That's why I always struggle writing a 2nd verse

I'm the teacher of the class

It means you've gotta learn

You've had the light you're whole life

So we should take turns

We both had an opportunity

But you hate yours

It's time to face the facts

And sometimes

The truth hurts
