The Fall Guy

Respectfully, make sure you’ve got a check if you check for me

Never in my Sentra, then I guess it’s not meant to be

And if my karma outlives your memory, promise me that you’ll remember the best of me

Unless you’re my accessory to murder, I’m not impressed by accessories

Definitely not celebrities, rappers that’s beefing over the bread and cheese

Won’t pick up the lead and squeeze

Need to let it breathe

Crazy, people meet me in a mask and a vest and not arrest, but invest in me

People never had a single cent for me sent for me

So far, this century’s got a sensitive scent to me

It makes sense, it feels heaven sent when they censor me

If I wasn’t a threat, devil would never be tempting me

I feel lost, God, give me direction please

Shit went left, manifested destinies

So until I meet the man who invented dreams

I’d rather be underrated than do any of the things that y’all did to be famous

I got the hits, then I slid into baseless accusations

Blow a kiss to the plaintiffs, send them gifts and arrangements

Yeah, I’m on the side of God, it’s a spiritual war

Honestly, I feel stupid, didn’t feel it before

I was busy, serving, stuffing trees in a Raw

Ups and downs, I wish I didn’t have to see what I saw

I saw evil and was forced to a side

Why I don’t unite? ‘Cause I enjoy the divide

The point of the lie is to make you fall for distractions

Looking at the big picture and ignoring the caption

Trying to startle the captain and watch me capsize

Me and my lawyer be laughing, they’re telling black lies on me

Eyes on me, eyes on y’all

This is what happens when your fall guy won’t fall

Had to tell my baby not to wait for me, it’s gonna be a long flight

Eyes red, I’ve been counting blue hundreds all night

Always on like the porch lights

A couple of pussies said it’s on sight, I’mma lead the blind

I think they’d rather live in darkness than to see me shine

Could barely read, but swear to God they could read my mind

The ones that have your back are not the ones you’re supposed to leave behind

Oyster Perpetual, they’re gonna see in time

Time to be man and stop pretending I’m impervious to what it is and what it’s not

Only hug the block if you own the building

I touched a lot, you wouldn’t know the feeling

We’re no longer equal, that’s how I know we’re even

Carry this pistol like I carry my guilt

If they tried having me killed, I’d still pass you the shield

But I’m horrified at truths that your actions revealed

But how the fuck can I be mad at what I built?

All this rapping about karma, now it’s fucking with my health

Probably spoke it in existence, should’ve kept it on the shelf

Bitch, don’t get it twisted, still not begging y’all for help

I’mma get in where I fit in, I’mma get done myself

When I go, can I say I put my all in it?

You think you’re just trapping ‘till you fall in it

Why’d the plan stop working? Because God missing

Probably do ten years for ten minutes to talk with Him

Uh, huh

Probably do ten years for ten minutes to talk with Him

Let me talk with Him

Ten for ten

Ten for ten

Ten for ten

Ten for Ten

Yeah
