Look
What if I chose this Mary Jane over this Mary Poppins
Wait til my music actually brings in profit
What if I told you I actually grew up in Jackson
Where niggas were given fewer options
Getting popped or get it poppin
I'm still shocked that the joker actually shot em
Aye we the same, we just chose different prophets
He was a street nigga, wanted money and gossip
And hell I just wanted gospel
7th grade you were the man that was rocking new Aeropostale
7 years later you got the shirt in college
Still ain't gained your knowledge
Nothing wrong with being discreet though
Yea, those dirty vans still on my feet bro
I still can't skate to save a life but I'm unique though
My grind is nice enough to say Tony had trained my feet though, yeah
Next year or two, put some diamonds on my teeth (uh)
Cop a royal rolly, diamonds in my dreams (uh)
May cop some forces have em shinin like my team (uh)
Talked to Kelso bout an el Camino with some leather seats (uh)
They waste time on trying to waste time
Then scribble some trash lyrics and toss in ya waste mind
But never will waste mine
What good will that do ya? I'm too busy staring at
Self in mirrors playing FaceTime, go
They say the sky don't fall unless I jump high
And put my feet back
Do I need to repeat that
Let me just put my seat back
They say the sky don't fall unless I jump high
And put my feet back
I don't need to repeat that
Let me just put my seat back
Starting to realize that these people that are entitled your friend
Are not as pure as what you thought in the end
I saw some shadows run up behind me
I gotta watch the knife in they hand
Aye Lord forgive me for the life of this man
I overlook some situations see why I don't understand as I should
What kinda man would turn his back on his hood
I found my life in his book. I wrote a chapter or few
They read a sentence and stopped
I walked away as they watched
They say I move like a criminal not alarmed by the lights
Because they came here to see me
That step of faith isn't easy, they screaming
For me like Jonas Brothers or something
I'm outchea making movies like Warner Brothers or something
I'm getting warmer this summer nigga
