Uh

Can we get this one?

Yo


[Verse]

Honorable liars, honest deceivers

World true to confusion what does it really teach us?

My teachers told me speak up

Be anything they would beseech us

Yet nobody believes in dreamers for I am my own believer

Now the youngins got it twisted

Following all the whispers

From a district of misfits, strictly for failed interest

There's never loyalty in a team full of money hungries

Even worse their goals to impress bitches that lack ambition

Im out to see if my pride can fight the tides of my ride

Feel like the Life Of Pie no different than mine

Crossing the bridge, I swim in waters only or the rich

I had to sacrifice my life to get to how I wanna live

Less drinking, more thinking, time passes as Im blinking

Stay slowed up or grow up my drive was my only hold up

Suicide or be exiled question I had to answer

Chose wisely enough, alone comfortable standards


[Hook- DeVeauxtion]

I know you see the smile and tend to think there's nothing wrong

But the life I live is killing me

With all the joy all I seem to feel is heavy rain

No one can see, it pours on me

I was given this mile to walk it all alone

Alone, alone, alone

To finish strong is the only thing I wanna say

To say


[Verse 2- Rife]

Niggas thinkig they know me? Boy you thought that you knew

Only after you trail my path could you walk in my shoes

Everybody wants a piece of the pie won't help to bake it

Just take it feed off my table won't thank me ain't even gracious

Always something to say, but never open they mouths

And always got questions to ask they never ask to themselves huh?

I rather you to hate me than be a friend and betray me

The truest sins not to kill but to blind the ones you call family

I'm bout to burn the germs that ain't willing to earn

Yet quick to blame failures on me like they put in work for the firm

But I accept it, any strife to Rife are all accepted

Just know I know, you all will fold in time, no exceptions

Do you feel me stressin? call you my brother is a blessing

But if you still ain't down when we down then gets to stepping

Yall think Im taking shots at the team Im really not

Its just the real is hard to find for those that live in camouflage ahh

[Verse 3- Rife]

They confusing my patience for greatness as scared excuses

For me to be the best gotta master being the student

What I've done is unproven, only amongst my peers

But I'm trynna conquer the world where my name will ring on for years

So give me time, I beg you

Yall believe Im special

Still tryna learn all I can before I get too...deep

And up like Bleek, never reach my potential

But some don't understand to rush me is disrespectful

Yall priorities fucked on clothes and hoes that you piercing

When there's goals to achieve I peep who vision lack sequence

Rife make me a club banger, need something to smoke to

Rife you should make this, that's not my style thought I told you

I do what, when I want to

Many friendships that failed

If I have to question the trust more than likely it isn't there

If I ever rap something you feel directed at you

Im sorry, its just my truth, but clearly you fit the boot

Im gone
