don't tell

Singer:mark battles

yeah. i will just let the uhm. let the beat talk to you for a second

just take it all in

uh

look

look

get on instagram

see my old chick a stripper now

she different now and everybody say she get around

but it's cool

i ain't judging you

gotta pay them bills

respect yo hustle

boo it's nothing new

one of few

two of many

shoulda known from all the naked pictures you were sendin'

feelin' empty

was it my fault?

maybe i made you too comfortable

those are my thoughts

my mind lost

yo guy how much does time cost

can i get another 10 fore i die off?

cause tomorrow ain't promised

went to record when i could've went to college

now we the big 3 and none of us is chris bosh'in

quit joshin'

honest i'm just rhyming on the beat

and you think that i'm a visionary

little do you know

the mean life getting scary

losin' faith

half my heart is in the cemetery

question why we here

tryin' to handle stress

will it ever disappear?

failure to my children is the only thing i fear

return to cloud 9 when i hear my fans cheer

in a thing

2 years ago i had to wash up in a sink

no hot water

it was cold enough to drink

two pair of pants

take em off when they stink

when they stink

lived in a studio for 6 months

me and my girl on the couch and she ain't tripped once

couldn't count how many times we had to skip lunch

always searchin' for some change i could dig up

livin off 1 mill a day

those are memories that i wanna seal away

i'm never going back to that

i promise you

i don't care what i gotta do

don't doubt the heart of a man

doin' what i can just to market a plan

20h days then start up again

work myself to death

goin' hard as i can

i can

don't judge a man by his status or judge all his decisions

haters always lurkin'

be observin' from a distance

i servin' out permission to further doubt my vision

so be of credit

why?

cause it motivate me

my son' mom pray he grow to hate me

i'm going crazy

you don't wanna save me

a different day

a different hotel

let's get away and get a hotel

pay for yo hair and yo nails

oh well just blow a kiss and don't tell

oh well just blow a kiss and don't tell

don't tell

shh

don't forget it

it ain't where you been

it's about where you headed

where you headed

where you headed

and you gotta keep it separate

won't get to you less you let it

unless you let it

unless you let it
