Sipping on some fine wine as times get crazy
About to graduate and step into a new life
Hold it down 'fore we gravitate and take it to a new level
Wake up and try to calibrate
Way that I be moving, I be working on a Saturday
No time off
Praise to all the days we used to fly off and reach for something higher
But lately, we haven't dried off; It's freezing
The more you go up the more you'll believe it
But they say that we are chosen for a reason
I know that times are tough, so see somebody if you need it
Express how you are feeling 'stead of hiding from your demons
And even when it's rough know you're never out of luck
When I listen to my old shit, I know that I received it
I mean it
Let me talk my shit again
I feel like giving in
I feel like Mike before I ever was dribbling (I feel like giving in)
I feel like I'm hiding right now but they know I'm innocent, I talk my shit again
(I was riding for you, I can't keep giving in, they know I'm innocent)
When I feel like giving in (Let me talk my shit again, yea)
I keep on riddling
I keep on riding for you (I feel like giving in)
Cause one day I will live again
I know that I'm fighting right now
But they know I'm Innocent
Check
Yo it's like 5 o'clock in the morning and uh
We're still doing this shit but
Let me talk my shit
Okay I know just how you feel, 'cause I been there
I've been through it all
And as a kid, I got picked on and never belonged
But now I'm here
There's a brighter side you gotta see through
My best advice is never let them make you scared to be you
'Cause I was scared of it too
And at the time I thought maybe
If I change the way I am that they would say that I'm cool
But looking back it only made me a fool
From my perspective everything I did keeping it true
I even grew up as a nerd; studying books and studying facts
Before I could rap, was studying rap
I learned to react
And matter-fact every time I lose, I relax
Cause I was never born a great, I had to learn to be that
And not to mention all the times that I was hit with a sack
When I would play the field with people who were holding back
They didn't know me
The game is indifferent, I thought I'd pass
But when you're getting to the top it's getting lonely
Yea
Let me talk my shit again
I feel like giving in
I feel like mike before I ever was dribbling (I feel like giving in)
I feel like I'm hiding right now but they know I'm innocent, I talk my shit again
(I was riding for you, I can't keep giving in, they know I'm innocent)
When I feel like giving in (Let me talk my shit again, yea)
I keep on riddling
I keep on riding for you (I feel like giving in)
Cause one day I will live again
I know that I'm fighting right now
But they know I'm Innocent
Let me talk my shit again, no
Let me talk my shit again
Let me talk my shit again
Again, for you
