Since we all understand this shit ain't never gon change

We all need to really try to make the best of it

I know its gon be things you can't change

But still you gotta make the best of it


[Verse 1: Onis]

Its no doubt im in better shape

Better form

Above the norm

Got a better taste like kettle corn

That bullshit im beyond that

Come journey with ya crony while I take a rewind back

Rewind that

Made some bad investments

Wasted time and finances

Not really a waste I learned a valued lesson

Couple foreclosures

Car repossession

Shit was hectic nigga had to pawn them vvs's

Under plenty pressure

But whats a young nigga to do when bills accrue thats far beyond his means

You see nobody never taught me how to handle cream

Helped some people I shouldn't have trying to keep it real

Hella spending sprees

Spacious loft above the Oprah store

I really lived it this is not a dream

All goody im woody

Back on my damn grind

Trying to inherit more carrots than keratin

Message in the bottle view the letter

Show effort nigga do better

[Verse 2: Onis]

Lesson 2

Came from the hands of a Betty Boop

Thought she was my boo

Drama queen amongst all things

But she was pretty in them Giddy boots

Quick to give a nigga the boot

Break up to make up

Sex added a boost

The love turned to lust

No more lovers deluxe

Black and Filipino

Thought I won boy I was yelling bingo

Plenty men know she love to mingle

Arguments in the coupe/that x-type

I guess the jag fit since im on to the next ride

I took that L like left eye

Can't lie that threw me for a loop like riding the redline

Had to regroup

Had to restrict circles

Rid myself of them Urkels

Now im riding solo blowing plenty green

All goody I'm woody

Back on my damn grind

Trying to inherit more carrots than keratin

Message in the bottle view the letter

Show effort nigga do better

Cream is a term made famous by WuTang member Raekwon and is slang for money. As I was getting it as a youngster no one taught me the value of it.

Kettle corn is much better than regular popcorn just like I’m better than your typical rapper!
