[Verse 1]
Blindly in love, losing yourself, tell me, what's good for your health?
Pride got involved and fucked up the wealth, I did this all with no help
And faced the fact, I'm trippin'
'Cause lust feels so temptin'
I'm telling Mama I changed
But Mama know I ain't different
Bitch, I'm a brat, never learned shit
If I pull out my dick, she'll say somethin' slick just to see if I rap
A rapper with wrappers, natural disaster
Can you tell me about that?
Can you tell me about backs?
Gettin' slimed by my own slatts
Gettin' dogged out by my cats
Bitch, I took time out to reflect
Talk your shit, my reflections win
Got replaced in tenth, got a regiment for the shedded skin
Slithering snakes, how I confuse me a hand for a fang?
All just to get twenty seconds of fame
Treat 'em like niggas, they all wanna hang
To show off that name and pop
But with time, we all gon' rot, nigga
[Chorus 1]
Mama said, "Well, you got to know where you got to go
You can't walk this road if your eyes is closed
Gotta right the wrongs, every time and place
Seconds gone, then your time's a waste
Toughest souls be the hard to face
And the pretty girls got the hardest game"
Show off your name and pop
But with time, we all gon' rot, nigga
Mama said, "Well, you got to know where you got to go
You can't walk this road if your eyes is closed
Gotta right the wrongs, every time and place
Seconds gone, then your time's a waste
Toughest souls be the hard to face
And the pretty girls got the hardest game"
Show off your name and pop
But with time, we all gon' rot, nigga
[Verse 2]
Get off my chest
Fuck all y'all, you don't know what's best
Let you in, you'll make a mess in my life
After I try once, I try twice
Everything got a reason, some ain't appeasing
Some want money, other people seek meaning
Most don't know, so they change like seasons
I wanted love to be what that brings in
Death, 'cause you never know if it's right 'til it's left
Hard decisions I face in life cause stress
But I'm fine, just Mike Dimes
Money ain't the root, motherfucker, it's time
Ends at the booth, but it starts in the mind
Starts with the crew, but it ends with a crime
That's just time, yours and mine
Fuck up once, and there's no rewind
I've been crossin' all my T's just to appease all to these masses
Should've known what it would be when I proceed with stupid actions
Every future someway past tense
My past what gave me passion
My passion's not your passion
If I leave, do not harass me
She wanna roast, he wanna ghost
Usually believe that we fiend for the most
Since we was teens, it was easy to go
Thinking that none of these demons will show
Pic in my phone, C on my nose
So I suppose, feelings was wrote
All that he know, all that she know
All that we know is the things we were told
[Chorus 2]
Mama said, "Go to go when you got to go
Can't walk this road if your eyes is closed
Gotta right wrongs, every time and place
Seconds gone, then your time's a waste
Toughest souls was the hardest face
And the pretty girls had the hardest game"
I showed off my name and popped
But with time, I did rot, nigga
