lone thoughts

light a blunt and see visions while i'm recordin'

long nights and early mornings

rain sleet

shit

it was pourin'

i was grindin'

they was yawnin'

some of them was still snorin'

had the black and silver 9's but couldn't afford jordans

alright

alright

believe in upstairs

down here some sinnin' happen

tried to move e's

the result of that was sendin' matics

bright lights

big bangs

mobbin' to that old dedication

that real wayne

however many the truck fit deep

you die in your dreams you die for real so the pills kill the sleep

sun comin' up

we still wide-eyed

and couldn't tell my brother shit when his mom died

swore i had all the answers 'til that night

he said they gotta fix it--they'll bring her back

right?

wrong

some found a better way

some lost

wonder what you got to lose to win and at what cost

you don't believe in god

tell me what you see then

there's gotta be somethin' that you believe in

i hate to but it's made me strong

hardest money to be made

i'm just tryin' to make it all

tell me what to do

tell me what i need

how to be a man and succeed

show me the reason

the reason to be

optimistic 'bout life with pessimistic dreams

i stand out--why would i work hard to fit in between?

why would i kill your rook when i could kill your queen?

cool with my castle

fuck a ring with a different team

see i'd lose with them before i win with y'all

love that nigga

shit

i'd die 'fore my nigga fall

anticipatin' the worst that could possibly come from sinnin'

i know what we doin' wrong

but chillin' seem wrong when you winnin'

who's the judge? man

we all wildin'

telly stravie's with my bitches from out long island

they get it for the low

they drop it lower

sound like a plug to me so i got to know her

wonder if the buzz got 'em chirpin'

or the swag got him twerkin' or the pills got him workin'

or the hate got him lurkin' or maybe i am perfect

shit

or maybe i am perfect

'til we find out

i just nod out

rap and drugs

prayin' i don't amy winehouse

'til we find out

i just nod out

rap and drugs

prayin' i don't amy winehouse

you don't believe in god

tell me what you see then

there's gotta be somethin' that you believe in

i hate to but it's made me strong

hardest money to be made

i'm just tryin' to make it all

tell me what to do

tell me what i need

how to be a man

and succeed

show me the reason

the reason to be

i could take you through my troubles

shit be too real

xannies or mollys be like red pill or blue pill

can't see shit until you look close

didn't think twice

didn't blink

shit

i took both

long nights up equals long day sleep

stomach for my team

i ain't full if they ain't eat

i'd die just thinkin' of my downfall

them square niggas rule 1

stay from around y'all

they pray for me

i pray for the haters

just waitin' on that check

please somebody call the waiter

just blew another quarter

bitches think i'm changin'

just copped another nickel

still down for sprayin'

if i had a penny for every dime bag

i could cop a whole dime bag

if i had a penny for every dime bag i'd cop a whole dime bag

you don't believe in god

tell me what you see then

there's gotta be somethin' that you believe in

i hate to but it's made me strong

hardest money to be made

i'm just tryin' to make it all

tell me what to do

tell me what i need

how to be a man

and succeed

show me the reason

the reason to be
